Irish Wolfhound Restaurant and Pub in Surprise will be hosting a visit from America’s Best Restaurants in early November. 

America’s Best Restaurants, a national media and marketing company focusing on bringing attention to local, independently-owned restaurants, will bring its ABR Roadshow to the restaurant on Monday, Nov. 4.

Popular dishes will be highlighted, along with an extensive on-camera interview with key staff about the restaurant’s special place in the community. The episode will be aired extensively on social media channels at a later date.

Open since 2009, Irish Wolfhound offers a convivial Irish pub atmosphere with traditional food, drink, and entertainment such as multiple TVs, trivia contests, karaoke and live music. They are open until 2 a.m. nightly. 

Irish Wolfhound features 19 rotating beers on tap, an extensive Irish whiskey collection and a menu full of Emerald Isle favorites.

Popular menu items that may be featured on the episode include the Reuben sandwich; Dublin Coddle, a comfort-food dish of potatoes, vegetables, corned beef and Irish sausage in broth; and the Friday night fish fry, showcasing fresh Atlantic cod dipped in a Guinness batter.

The restaurant also serves a full Irish breakfast on weekends, featuring eggs, Irish sausages, rashers (bacon), black and white pudding (blood and oatmeal sausages, respectively), potatoes, grilled tomatoes, baked beans and Irish soda bread. 

America’s Best Restaurants will be filming on location from 3 to 6 p.m. Nov. 4. The restaurant’s finished episode premiere date will be announced on its Facebook page and will be featured at americasbestrestaurants.com/rests/arizona/irish-wolfhound-restaurant-and-pub. 

Restaurants featured on the ABR Roadshow are selected based on their customer reviews, menu items, social media presence, and level of involvement with their community. They are found through customer nominations, internal vetting or by a restaurant applying to be featured at americasbestrestaurants.com. 

Irish Wolfhound is open from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. daily at 16811 N. Litchfield Road.
