| - I will give this place the benefit of the doubt and go off my friend's rating of Hog's Head of a 4.5 as well as the feedback I received from my boyfriend after trying their takeout I ordered for him. For this go-around, I will give a 3.5.. A-OK. Definitely open to giving them another shot, though.
I met one of my girlfriends here for an early dinner on Monday. It is such a strange and unexpected location for a restaurant I thought, but I love that type of place filled with locals and regulars. Luckily, it was a straight shot from my office to the restaurant. When we got there, we parked across the street and entered through the back(ish) door of the bar. The entire bar turned and stared at us. Maybe they aren't used to new faces? Not sure. We were told there was seating in the dining room which was large and open with quite a few 4+ seat tables. There were a few other families there. Their special of the day was that it was their wing night! Perfect. I love wings.
We ordered their buffalo chicken fries to start and they were....heavenly. Not sure why we thought two dozen wings to follow would be a grand idea, but we ordered them anyway - 1 dozen spicy garlic parm, 1/2 doz honey bbq and 1/2 spicy teriyaki. I asked for them extra crispy. Unfortunately, I was not a fan of these wings. The chicken was not very tender and although they were a decent size, they weren't crispy and they seemed to have a lot of gristle on them. We each ate a few, but the number consumed didn't compare to how many we boxed up and eventually just tossed. I also noticed that I was charged full price for the wings instead of their special price of $.50...maybe this was because we boxed them up and took them home? Not a big deal, just something I noticed. So for me personally, the wings were a miss here. I did take Bobby a salmon Caesar salad with an order of fries with gravy on the side. He LOVED the homemade croutons and dressing and raved about the fresh fries and gravy. I have to agree with him - they were excellent.
The place was not very busy, only a few other tables with families that had [screaming] children and our waitress was SO friendly. She took great care of us and was willing to accommodate all of our requests.
I would definitely give this place another shot, but I think next time I would try something different. It seems like their sandwiches are what they do best. Wouldn't mind having a few drinks here either as their bar was pretty nice and a decent size.
