| - Another great Groupon find.
Teakwoods is kind of tough to describe - it is like 3/4 sports bar and 1/4 lounge. On one side they have big, burly tables with lots of TVs up on the wall, showing every available example of athletic competition. And golf, too. On the other side, they have pub-style tables and an area for local music to come in and play.
The place - even though it borders on Snotsdale - was unpretentious and populated with an eclectic crowd of folks. I saw cowboy boots, jauntily-cocked bowler hats, and a tatted up chick stuffing sugar packets in her purse.
I was charmed.
The boyo and I have been back several times since. The wings, as noted by others, are really good. In our case, we go for boneless as neither the boy nor I particularly enjoy sucking hot sauce from under our nails. The wings are always tender, and have great flavor.
Service is usually pretty good - sometimes a little slow, but... whatevs. Throwing peanut shells all over the place is enough to keep me entertaining while I wait for my beer. (To the person who complained about the dusty, dirty nuts in the buckets... don't suck on the shells. Duh! The nuts are well sealed inside their safe, dirt-proof casings and are totally tasty when you crack 'em open. With your hands.)
I wouldn't recommend Teakwoods for folks who aren't into meat. Not a lot of variety for someone who doesn't want beef or bacon on some form of bread. But the Chicken Philly is muy yummy (I eat it every time we go there). The boyo has worked his way through a number of interesting varietys of ground cow with toppings, and has enjoyed them all (except the sliders - he found them dry).
Ultimately, we would definitely (and have already) go back. I think we've been 3 times so far - twice with groupons (and we have another one to use), and once at full price. Always a nice, relaxing night out.
