The live music and irish dancing at Raglan Road is really fun with kids!
If you are not looking to be entertained but have good food with a variety of choices I suggest Boathouse. We think it is cool and fun sitting outside by the water. But it depends on the personality of all. When you live where we live you appreciate the water as not something we experience daily.
Idk. My kids (now 7&9) love Maria and enzos. They love Tanner, the violinist.Maria and Enzo's has a spectacular setting (but maybe not so interesting for a 7-year-old) and great food. Edison has interesting stuff to look at and great live entertainment but tends toward oldies (Sinatra era) and is VERY loud if you're near the band. Has a few older-kid-friendly items like a terrific grilled cheese and several interesting mocktails.
