Holy cow. How have I missed the *Smoked Wings* all this time? They are unbelievably good. If Other Mama put out wings like this, people would be freaking out. And during Happy Hour (which is all-day on Sundays) a basket of about 9 wings is only $5. They are moist, smoked, fall-off-the-bone chicken wings like you've never experienced. 5 stars for these smoked wings!
3 stars for the understaffed bar area and those who were working seemed to be afflicted by a malaise of sorts, perhaps it was incidental. Usually bad management is to blame for low morale - it'll be interesting to observe the staff during my next visit.
I visited at 11am on a Sunday, and the floors were pretty filthy. A shame because the interior of this Chili's is well-appointed and was recently remodeled to corporate modern Chili's spec. Plenty of HDTVs all on different channels and iPad-like menus on every table top. Perfect under-the-radar spot to watch sports events. Ironically in the same parking lot as the Martini...
Footnote: IMO, everything on the Chili's menu is waaayyyy better than Applebee's. It's no contest, really!
