Jackie Reilly's
WHY GO HERE? Convenient location (which also makes for a crowded parking lot). Plenty of live music here on weekends with smaller acts and cover bands. Expect lots of volume: Even when it's just the jukebox -- it's always pretty darn loud here.
LAYOUT: The east side of the building holds a room-length bar that is blocked off from a dining-dancing area that also holds the performance space.
THE CROWD: 21- to 40-year-olds from all over Nassau.
BOOZE: Beer, wine, cocktails and shots ($3-$8), with happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 p.m.-7 p.m.
FOOD: Salads, starters and full entrees that include some authentic Irish edibles like fish 'n' chips, shepherd's pie and Gaelic-style steak served in a whiskey cream sauce ($12-$18).
TUNES: Jukebox, live bands.
