Before heading out to Celtic Crossing to celebrate St. Patty's Day (as we have for several years) I read the previous reviews that the place had changed the decor. Yikes!!! What were they thinking?!? Flashing video machines and two huge pool tables greet you at the door. And that is ALL that greets you. Not a waitress or hostess to be found. We stood around in the table and chair area until we asked other customers if we just sit down anywhere. They laughed and said that's what they did. Fortunately a band was setting up on the stage, which gave us some entertainment for the long wait before our server showed up. We ordered corned beef and cabbage and then learned several minutes later that they were out of potatoes - but would have them in 30 minutes. All "Irish potato famine" jokes aside, the band had started - our drinks had finally arrived so we settled in for the wait. The musicians were great. We really enjoyed the music. Dinner arrived - it was okay, but not as good as it has been. I will say the restaurant did bring out a complimentary dessert - which we did enjoy. It's hard to know where to start about the decor. If you remember what it looked like before - let that be a good memory. Somewhere there is a mirror factory with a lot less inventory. Way over in the corner is a wall-to-wall floor to ceiling mirror... ah... disco-ish... ah... bar... dance floor area. It all goes well with the band of mirrors all around the room at the ceiling. All of this would be fun if you weren't looking for an authentic Irish dinner on St. Patty's day.
Cons: Used to be a real unique restaurant worth the drive.

We had gone to Celtic Crossing since they openned many years ago. However, we haven't been there for over a year and were excited when we had a chance to share it with friends from Castle Rock who just moved into the area. I was SO embarrassed and dissappointed. All of the beautiful celtic paintings and classy decor was replaced by trashy glass and brass and looked like a bad lounge act at the "Birdcage." The traditional Irish menu had been replaced by over priced steak and canned vegitables with an inflated price and poor service. The atmosphere was dark and loud, the stage was fitted with an inflated Karoke machine. It's a sad loss, we miss the old owners and food.
Pros: It's located next to a really good Italian restaurant that can substitute for the bad experience at the "new" Celtic Crossing.
Cons: Everything.
