One of the must-taste dishes here is the Chicken Jalfrezi.

Kennedy’s menu is extensive, offering something for every taste and desire.
Omeed Moghadam/Google Maps All of their dishes are simmered or cooked to perfection, encompassing chicken, lamb, beef, goat, seafood, and lots of Tandoori and vegetarian plates. Appetizers include the Spinach Pakoras, fresh spinach fritters deep fried in chickpea batter, and the vegan Papadam, a thin, crispy lentil wafer flavored with Indian spices. If you’re in the mood for a wrap, try the Tandoori shrimp with garbanzo beans and herbs or the ground lamb kabab, also with garbanzo beans and herbs. This is only the delicious beginning!
And what would and Irish bar be without lots of amazing beer?

Pairing any menu item with a glass of delicious Mango Lassi—a cool and flavorful drink made with mango and yogurt—wonderfully intensifies the flavors.

While the Chicken Jalfrezi, and many of the other entrees on the menu, is a must-try dish, folks really come here for the camaraderie. Kennedy’s is a popular, fun, and very friendly neighborhood hangout that melds two very distinctive cultures – yet somehow, they effortlessly fit together!
