| - After playing a game of Aussie Rules, my team ran a rampage on any wing place in the Etobicoke region. Luckily, we found Boar N Wing. Not so lucky for Boar N Wing's staff.
We walked in on a Friday night at about 9pm. The place was not packed at all, so it easily accommodated our group of 16 people. As we sat down, a few more tables started to fill up and we were surprised to find that there was only one waitress working the floor, while there were 2 bartenders working the bar (this made no sense to me as there were only 2 people sitting at the bar).
Anyways, our large group was seated and we started ordering drinks and food. Because there was only one waitress on the floor, we found ourselves waiting quite a while for food and drinks to be delivered. Our food was delivered about half an hour after we ordered it, while some people at our table did not receive their food until about 45 minutes later. Pretty unacceptable for a group of hungry athletes... pretty unacceptable for hungry people in general.There was no one helping the poor girl deliver our food. Poor management.
Anyways, I ordered a pound of the Homerun and the Batman wings to share with a friend. We also had the sweet potato fries. Overall, the wings were large and quite tender and juicy. They were very flavorful and super yummy.
Homerun- my favorite of the two types of wings I ordered. It was a chili thai and teriyaki sauce which was sweet and spicy all at the same time. It was ahhhmazing
Batman- it was pretty good. The bbq sauce was a bit too acidic for my liking, and the teriyaki sauce did little to mute out the acidity, but they were still pretty good
Later on in the night, we ordered a pitcher of beer and it was totally flat. We returned the pitcher to the bar and they replaced it, but I think more could've been done in order to mitigate the situation. The manager seemed to be very MIA for a Friday night when business started to pick up. The food here is great, but the lack of quality customer service really makes this place a disappointment. Although the food was good, it's not begging a repeat visit. Too bad.
