| - So.. I was skeptical because the reviews on here aren't so nice. But I promised myself that from now on, when I have a good experience, I'd talk about it. We decided to get some takeout tonight. Since I just got the coupon Cogburns sent out in that coupon pack in the mail, we figured we'd try them out. Pretty much the only way it's going to happen since our three girls aren't exactly thrilled to hang out at what is basically a bar.
Called it in and the girl was super nice. I ordered 10 hot wings, 10 mild with light sauce, an order of the french fries, extra ranch and a dr. pepper. My husband picked it up and reports that not one, but 3 people talked with him to make sure he was being taken care of (better than Buffalo Bills Wild Wings btw.. where you can wait about an hour for takeout and people ignore you).
So not only did they not forget the soda (which most every restaurant DOES when you ask for one for takeout), but they remember the extra ranch and that one was supposed to be light sauce.
The wings themselves were a bit spicier than I like. Not their fault, I'm just a wimp. The wings were meaty and flavorful. Maybe a bit saltier than needed. I should have ordered bbq. I'm just such a wimp when it comes to spice. My hubby says his wings were delicious, he likes spicy!
The fries were very very good! I'm not normally a huge fan of those 'fresh cut" style fries, but these were tasty. They put a couple tubs of ketchup in with the fries, so it wasn't cold ketchup, which I appreciate. Nothing like using cold ketchup on hot food. But the thing I love is that I didn't eat any of the fries until I'd finished my wings and while they weren't hot, they were still darned good. Not soggy, or hard at all. Still mildly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.
So all in all, when we're craving wings we'll be back. I don't normally write reviews.. it's hard to find time. But this place has been skewered with bad reviews lately, and I wanted to throw my experience is there as a positive review, for both the food and the service. Trying to support the local places..
