| - We were looking for a new place and found this one on......wait for it.......Yelp!
The reviews seemed good, the menu look good, so we went. I like the way the place looks. Bar signs and neon provide most of the light and there are several ceiling fans to keep the place cool. The waitress/bartender was extremely nice (I am so sorry I can't remember her name) and helpful. To start we ordered a couple of beers and some fried pickles. I have to say that these were the best fried pickles I have had. The pickle slices were breaded and seasoned perfectly. They were not greasy at all, except the last 3 we left in the bottom of the basket (sacrifice to the fried pickle God). My wife, who is not much of a fried pickle fan, even said they were delicious. I ordered the special of the day which was 18 wings for $12.99. The wings were good size and very meaty and I am guessing by the time it took to get them, they were cooked to order, not cooked half way and then finished when you order them which is a huge bonus with me. I would rather wait 30 minutes for fresh wings than 10 for warmed up wings. I consider myself a wing coinsure...lol....because it is usually all I ever order, I ordered them in Hot and Mango Habanero. This is where the debate between my wife and myself began. The first wing I tried was the hot. The first thing that I tasted was tomato juice and I can not stand tomato juice. It is kind of like a person that hates onions and can taste an onion sliver in a 5 gallon bucket of salsa. The hot quickly killed the taste so I tried another, same thing, tomato juice. My wife said that she tasted tomato sauce and not juice (yes there is a difference). I repeatedly said that it was tomato juice. The Mango Habanero were very good. They could have been a little hotter but they were still very good, my wife loved them. She had the loaded baked potato. Piled with butter, sour cream, bacon bits and cheese (maybe something else, I can't remember). She really liked it. We will go back, I will get wings again, just not the hot.
