Fado

The crowds have abated somewhat since Fado opened a couple years back, but this sprawling, multilevel theme-park facsimile of an Irish pub still lures the masses most nights. Bursting with woodwork, stone, and double-barreled Guinness taps (all of it imported from the Emerald Isle), Fado has several themed rooms, each designed to evoke a particular Irish pub style -- country cottage and Victorian Dublin, for instance. The victuals are above par for pub fare. Monday evenings feature Irish music sessions.
