Mostly that irish stew uses lamb or mutton, not beef.

Irish stew is made from lamb, not beef. That would be the main
difference. Also, "Irish Stew" is traditionally called "Shepard's
Pie", and has a layer of mashed potatoes covering the top, and then
it's baked in the oven. "Beef Stew" just has chunks of potatoes cooked
into the stew, and it's normally made entirely on the stove top.
