Donovan's reopens on Washington Street

The venerable SoNo institution Jeremiah Donovan's, which before closing two years ago occupied the first gritty, then groomed foot of Washington Street for 28 years, has reopened as a slightly more tidy version ...

[Huh]

I hope the food is better and the staff is friendlier than the previous Donovans.

Yes!!!! The bulldog was updated well but the food was lacking substance. Donovans was an institution and so many people will be happy to go back!

[chowdah]

YES!!!!! BRING BACK DONOVANS!!
HOORAY!!!

[Vox Pop]

Welcome back!

Good to have a real bar back in place of the upscale yuppie joints. The aptly self-named "Huh", above, should go have a Chocolate martini and a Tofu burger at one of those other places.

Awesome. Bulldog was awful, too expensive, lame food. I'm glad Donnovan's is back.

i actually left the bulldog hungry after finishing a meal there...all they had to do was carry on the donovans tradition.....if its not broken ...dont fix it...what a way to learn a lesson the hard way.

Polpo in Greenwich is horrible!! Don't waste your money, you'd be better off going out for pizza.

Seriously, I gave Donovans so many tries. They had decent burgers but everything else was just "eh". And I thought the owners were really rude. There was one bartender there who I liked, cant remember his name. Carl? However, Im not going to act like I dont love chocolate martinis. Im sure you do too, you're just too scared to order them. I understand, your manhood is at risk. I'll enjoy one for you.

[Huh]

And Ill be sure to consult you in the future before expressing my opinion, since apparently youre the authority on all things on the Topix message boards. Good for you, JCP, good for you.
