August Food and Drink Specials From Rí Rá

This August, guests can cool down during the dog days of summer at Rí Rá with $6 drafts of Lagunitas IPA, a perfectly-formulated balance between malt and hops to leave taste buds wanting more.

Also this month, the pub features the perfect summer dish, Crispy Cod ($16.95).  The lightly-breaded Atlantic Cod is served on a marinated cucumber, red onion, cherry tomato, white bean and fresh herb salad, drizzled in a tangy sun-dried tomato vinaigrette and fresh basil oil. This light, delicious entrée includes a choice of side garden or Caesar salad.

About Rí Rá Las Vegas

Crafted in the warm pub style of 19th century Ireland, Rí Rá Las Vegas is located inside The Shoppes at Mandalay Place.  The authentic Irish pub features a multitude of artifacts that were carefully restored in Wicklow, Ireland and shipped to their new home in Las Vegas.  Rí Rá Las Vegas contains an authentic Victorian Shop bar that began its life in Ireland in the 1880s, a whiskey bar adorned with an original glazed jewelry cabinet from 1900, an oak floor from a whiskey distillery and an 8-foot-tall, 500-pound carved plaster statue of St. Patrick dating back to 1850.  The pub hosts live entertainment seven nights a week in a music room constructed with artifacts dating back to 1890 from the Olympia Theater in Dublin, Ireland. Born and raised in Dublin, Rí Rá Las Vegas owners David Kelly and Ciaran Sheehan have been close friends since they were 14-years-old. Kelly and Sheehan later partnered with Jay Luther, whom Kelly met while working for Guinness. Rí Rá Las Vegas is one of 11 pubs the trio has opened in the U.S.
