"I'm a bit disappointed with this place honestly, especially with service. Food was at best 4 stars. It wasn't the worst Korean fusion food I've been had. But at the same time, they could improve. When you walk in, it's a very interesting place. It wants to be a Korean pocha, but it feels Mexican at the same time with the artwork on the wall. The best thing it had was the 90s K-pop playlist they had playing. Menu is super simple. But anything more complicated I don't think they could have handled. I was hoping for more to be completely honest. The soy garlic wings were extremely salty and very garlicky. So be prepared to have garlic breath for the rest of the night. And need to guzzle water too. The BULGOGI quesadilla was ok. Definitely on the sweeter side but could have been worse. The fries were pretty good. Service was at most a two star for me. I heard this place is under new management. So you'll have to be patient and give them time. Don't come here if you're pressed for time before the Red Bulls game. The manager herself literally has to watch over everything otherwise it falls apart. The table next to us stood up and left because no one came over to take their order. The manager had to do a lot of service recovery. They can't keep track of their orders and what table they belonged to. The guy receiving and delivering the food went to all the wrong tables with food and even came to us with more food meant for another table AFTER we had already paid. As someone who has worked in restaurants, I cringed at the disaster going down the drain. The waiter who was training was lost in the sauce and didn't know what to do with himself. The host also could have been way more helpful to the staff. The manager had to make all the drinks as the bartender too. Their systems did not work. So many things fell apart. The weirdest part was we were all served in takeout containers. They forgot to give us silverware and then proceeded to give us plastic ware. Forgot to give us plates for sharing our appetizers. Needed to ask for that too. We saw other customers going up to their stash of plastic ware to grab it themselves. Idk if they didn't have a dishwasher or something. But when we walked by on our way home after the game, all the tables were set up nicely with really silverware and plates."

"We were quite frustrated when we found two small children playing in the pool table area, one of whom was swinging a pool cue around. This made it impossible to continue our game without the risk of being hit. We tried to stay out of the way while other patrons politely asked the adult with the children—who we were told was the owner's wife—not to allow the kids to play in such a dangerous area. She dismissed their concerns, explaining that they were the owner's children, and allowed them to continue disrupting the game. We never even got the chance to start our game because the child with the stick came too close for comfort. When I approached an employee to voice my concerns, I was informed that it was the owner's wife and there was nothing they could do. One employee even agreed it wasn’t safe but shrugged it off as "you know how it is." Two patrons even stepped outside to discuss the situation with someone who seemed to be associated with the restaurant. Ultimately, we decided to cancel our game and leave, feeling upset that our safety and enjoyment were clearly not a priority for the management. Customer service has noticeably declined since our first visits to this restaurant. While we have enjoyed some good times here in the past, I doubt we will return anytime soon. Owners of Whelan, it's essential to prioritize your customers—after all, they are what keeps you in business. On a positive note, if you do decide to visit, I recommend trying their pudding dessert; it's quite good! Just be cautious of those swinging pool cues."
