| - First Thing. I rated this 4 stars because I am comparing it to other restaurants that are similar (Teakwoods, Hooters, other bar/restaurants), I don't rate 4 stars because I am comparing it to a good steakhouse or Italian food place. Apples to Apples, right?
So along with my husband and 4 other friends we visited for a quick bite to eat during the week. None of us had ever been to this restaurant, here or any other location.
The place was really clean, and smelled like a restaurant, not like a bar (certainly not like pissy beer and puke like the previous bar that was here). We were told to seat ourselves as the place was pretty empty.
The menu was pretty extensive, for bar food. I actually had a hard time deciding. For appetizers the table ordered a basket of fried pickles and a basket of fried jalapeno rings. The fried jalapenos were awesome, probably the best thing I ate there. The fried pickles were ok. They were cut too thin in my opinion and lacked any sort of "pickle flavor".
For dinner I got that wing basket. I ordered half honey BBQ and half medium buffalo. The basket comes with fries. The rest of the table ordered honey garlic wings, habenero mango?, nuclear, another mild buffalo basket, a Philly cheese-steak, and an order of steak nachos. My order of wings were good. The medium buffalo was good, but nothing stood out as fantastic or unique. Wish they were a little crispier. The honey BBQ tasted just like sloppy joe sauce was on them. I'm not kidding, it was strange. The person that ordered the Philly cheese-steak had to ask for a side of queso, no cheese was available besides provolone. The woman that ordered the steak nachos said they were good, but asked if next time they could actually melt the cheese on the nachos. I think everyone felt the same about the wings. Good, but not great. We will visit this place again and order something new next time and see how they do.
The service was good, fast, but they up charge for everything. There is a reason they ask you if you want celery with your wings, not to cut back on waste, but to charge you $.69 for the celery!
In my opinion this place is far better, quicker, cleaner, and nicer than Teakwoods!!
