| - This place is a hidden wings and ribs gem!
Came here on an early Saturday night with family and friends. This restaurant is the first restaurant on the left, located in a small plaza at an intersection. There was no sign outside the plaza that cars can easily see either, so it's very easy to miss.
When I got there, we were the only ones and soon came another family. They turned their lights dim until the family came and their kids wanted to draw. The restaurant itself was clean and spacious. Booths on the sides and tables in between. If you got sat at a booth, it also comes with a personal TV screen. They have large screens hung all around the restaurant too. This actually reminded me of the newer Wild Wings locations.
We took a longer time to pick our food as everyone had different tastes. In the end, we ordered few burgers with fries and salad, a full rack of baby back ribs with onion rings, and two flavours of wings: Honey Parmesan and Honey Teriyaki.
I can speak to everything but the burgers. The ribs came first and 'WOW'! It came out better than expected - it was quite saucy and juicy, and the meat was tender. However, there wasn't as much meat surrounding the ribs. The onion rings on the side were amazingly good too!
As for the wings, I loved the honey Parmesan!! It wasn't the standard cheesy taste, it's more 'inclusive', sweet, and thick in flavour. The teriyaki was A-okay, too Asian-style for me and I generally don't go for teriyaki-ish flavours but it still tasted good (despite how I wasn't the one who chose this flavour).
Just FYI, the wings at Fanzone are super big! Compared to the ones I've had at All Stars and Wild Wings, they were more meaty and juicy. Bang for the buck? :P
Service was really nice as they were fast and accommodating.
For drink choices, below is what I know from my visit:
- Rickard's White & Red (Have)
- Creemore (Don't Have)
- Coke / Iced Tea (Have)
P.S. Apparently their current chef is one of All Star Wings' previous chefs.
I truly believe this place needs more attention and advertising. They deserve more reviews, customers, and exposure.
