Ok now let me preface this by saying I'm a Winking Lizard lover and have always been a fan. I much prefer the Lizard over Panini's any time, but this downtown location just isn't up to my Lizard standards.
First off the way they do their table wait list has room for improvement. They "light up" your number on various walls around the restaurant. Whatever happened to those buzzers they give you (like at the Cheesecake Factory)? Eh. I stared at the number signs like a hawk for fear of being skipped and not getting our table.
The food was just ok. We got spicy garlic wings, one of my personal go-to faves which is usually just a big kick in your mouth with some garlicky goodness. Sadly, I did not get spicy garlic and instead just got a somewhat-spicy garlic (though really, there was no burn). And they were mushy-ish. Major disappointment.
I'll have to rely on other Lizard establishments to satisfy my spicy garlic wing cravings.
