Mild pineapple taste coupled with a smooth and ice cold ginger beer. The cooper cup sweating cold invitations is a topper. We decided to split a Cobb Salad. Our server Diego was outstanding all night. He was more than willing to split the salad. He did everything you wanted a waiter to do to make your experience enjoyable! The Cobb salad was very fresh. The kitchen did an outstanding job at making it presentable in a half dish manner. There was plenty of toppings to accent the salad. The grilled chicken was moist, easy to cut and slightly seasoned to enjoy. The Cobb salad is a must try if you are a salad goer. The pizza was good. It has a thin crust that was crispy but not burnt. The pizza was just soft enough that you could cut it with a fork. We had the everything pizza. There was a good variety of toppings and plenty of them. The sauce was not very predominant. I would probably ask for extra sauce next time so I could enjoy the tomato sauce accents more. Overall...good thin crust pizza.

This is my first trip to Buffalo Wings & Ribs. The facility is located in the Joan Plaza strip…read moremall. Lots of parking and easy to find. The restaurant is large and could handle 8+ people sized groups pretty well. It's clean and orderly. Not a lot of appeal in the decor. The staff here was very friendly and really hustled to serve us. I really appreciated that our waitress pushed our kids meals to the front of the line. On this occasion I ordered plain bone-in wings with a dry rub. I was expecting wings that were slow cooked and smoked in a dry rub. BWR fries their wings and then rolls them in the rub. I found the wings to be small in size and not very meaty. None of my 10 wings approached meaty. The wing seemed to be over fried. The exterior was very crispy and seemed to pull a lot of the moisture out of the wing. The lemon pepper dry rub was very good. The rubs were very thick on the wing. You could easily pick to the lemon pepper flavor. Though it was almost overpowered by a salty taste. The Parmesan dry rub had a clear cheese flavor and wasn't as salty. I think I need to try their wet wings before I give a definite thumbs up or down.

Wings Etc might be the most consistently excellent chain-food experience I've ever had, and this…read morelocation is the gold standard of the many Wings Etc locations I've been to. Between the excellent wings, the dizzying selection of alcohol, and the top-notch wait staff, this restaurant is permanently enshrined as one of my all-time favorites. I knew that I was addicted when, after walking into the bar during one trip with a friend, the bartender (Michael) recognized us and immediately offered up two Blue Moon schooners, our usual. That extremely impressive level of service is likely possible because this location sees a relatively low amount of foot traffic. Despite patronizing this location dozens of times on different days at different hours, we have not once waited for a table. What can be said about the food that hasn't been said already? The wings are spectacular. You can expect them to be large and swimming in sauce. Speaking of which, the sauce choices are overwhelming: their classic BBQ is a go-to, but try out the Say It Ain't Tso or Me-So-Spicy for something a little different. If its alcohol you're after, its hard to do better on this side of town. Their draft selection isn't quite as extensive as Buffalo Wild Wings down the road but it gets the job done without the large crowds and strange chlorine smell. They will certainly do mixed drinks much better. The first time we visited Wings Etc was during a big game night. Buffalo Wild Wings was completely packed, so we continued down the road a bit to try this other place which ended up having a few open tables and spots at the bar. Life is full of strange mysteries; among them I add "Why will people wait thirty minutes for mediocre wings at BWW when there's Wings Etc a half-mile down the road with better food and better service?" I really can't answer that, but at least I won't count myself among the people who make that sorry mistake.

Wings Etc (Dupont Road) - for a change pace for American style food on the north side…read more It's been a long time since I've been to a Wings Etc/ BWW type place. As a chance of pace...we mixed it up and tried Wings Etc on a Sunday afternoon - living on the edge LOL. This facility is located in the far west end of the strip mall at the corner of Dupont and Coldwater Road. It's opposite the Kroger and more toward Casa's. Easy in and easy out as there is parking close to the store. The store is kinda large (at least seemed that way today as it was empty) clean and in good repair. The team was very friendly. The place was slow so we had very attentive service. The food and drink menu is fairly large. They gave a full bar with lots of TV's. Nice place to relax, talk and watch a game. As for the food...I really don't expect a lot from these type of franchise places. I did find the onion rings to be pretty good. Nice meaty piece of onion with a thick batter. Slight crunchy breading - not too oily. No special sauce served with this. Just ketchup if you need it. My wife really liked the grilled chicken bacon wrap. Fresh ingredients and tasty. My grilled chicken quesadilla was large and thick. Tender chicken, thick bed of cheddar cheese and soft tortillas.

I have literally no complaints about this place. We went once this summer for a drink while on our…read moreway to pick someone up from the airport. Definitely curious to see what it was like, with all the negative publicity from "the incident". The bar and dining area were clean, the restrooms could maybe use a coat of paint and some refreshing, but were otherwise spotless. We were warmly greeted, welcomed in like regulars. Enjoyed an appetizer with our drinks, pretzel sticks with cheese, which were served hot and fresh. Before leaving, one of the regulars invited us to come back the following week for a hog roast, and we went! We didn't realize until arriving that day, that the hog roast was a memorial after a funeral. We felt a little like we were intruding, but none of the other patrons made us feel that way. At the hog roast, we encountered a very diverse group of people, varying ethnicities, varying income brackets, all enjoying the bar with each other. Recently, we popped in for lunch, and were blown away by the portion sizes and the quality. I had the "garbage pizza" as a sausage roll, and it was enormous! Delicious, heavily loaded with toppings, served hot and fresh. My husband had a grilled buffalo chicken grinder, which was also much bigger than anticipated. Fresh and crunchy veggies topped the grilled chicken in the sandwich. Both meals left plenty for leftovers, or would have been perfect to split for a meal for two. We definitely plan to visit again soon for another meal. Overall, this dive bar is so much more than the negative publicity it received due to an isolated incident. If we lived closer, it would definitely be our regular spot.

Ok local dive bar... Stopped by PP for lunch on a recommendation from a friend; were told they have…read morebest wings in FW. PP was alright... Decent food (the wings are smoked and were very average; nothing to write home about), decent service, and typical local dive bar atmosphere. The biggest drawback here was the bar allowed smoking... While it didn't smell like an ashtray (surprisingly), all the old locals were smoking which is annoying and not appealing when you're eating (Note: Based on the sign above the bar, I don't think they care what you think lol). All-in-all, not bad, but not great... If you like an ole country no-frills dive bar, check out PP.

Try the potato kegs too...tater tots with bacon and cheese inside them! The workers were funny and talkative and helpful about deciding what to try since they were out of wings! Hope to give this place another try and comment on the wings!

Laycoff's Tavern (near Granite City/Target, North Clinton St) - iconic place with good pizza…read more Laycoff's is a fun little place to frequent. It doesn't seat a lot of people. So...you might have to wait for a table. Unfortunately there isn't space for a nice waiting area. So you might stand up in the small bar area while you wait. It's okay. Things move fast. Enjoy the people watching opportunity. The team here is very friendly and welcoming in an odd way. They really are glad to serve you. Lots of smiles and friendly smiles. They are efficiently-friendly. They all move and talk fast. They are hustling to serve - not avoid. They will take a moment to get to relate...but not much more than a moment. The service is very good! The Sullivan family is very nice as well. Laycoff's is known for sausage rolls and a community bar environment. My wife loves her sausage roll. Full of tasty cheese surrounded by a light, fluffy and soft dough. The American sausage blended in with the cheese nicely. The menu has a small number of specialty pizzas (only six) along with build-your-own option. The prices are pretty comparable to other bars. On this occasion I got a 16" Everything pizza for $20. A 16 inch pizza was a LOT of delicious pizza. The pizza crust is thin. It is thin enough that almost every bit has a slight crunch. However, it was also soft enough to satisfy the less than crunchy crowd. The crust doesn't have much distinct flavor or seasoning. Just a nice thin crust. The pizza sauce was also hard to distinguish. The pizza is so full of toppings and cheese that you really don't see the sauce. The sauce that was they are blended well with the American sausage base. Now the best part - the fresh toppings! Laycoff's uses the Pizza King approach by using finely chopped toppings. The base of the Everything pizza is a finely ground American sausage. The base of the pizza so completely covered with sausage on the Everything choice. The sausage doesn't have much spice or flair as it is American style instead of Italian. The pepperoni is very thin. The fresh and slightly crunchy onions and peppers are chopped into small pieces. Even the green and black olives seemed to be smaller. The whole pizza was coated in delicious tasting mozzarella cheese. As I mentioned the 16 inch pizza is a large pizza. Laycoff's cuts the pizza into large pieces as well. This pizza could easily feed 3-4 people. Cold Pizza Test - I always want to try the pizza the next morning, cold, and for breakfast. This pizza was outstanding cold and as a left over. The coldness causes the mozzarella cheese taste to really come forward. The saltiness of the olives gets bolder. The bed of sausage and cover of cheese really help keep the pizza moist. The crust stayed a bit soft with a slight crunch. Overall, I really liked the pizza. It wasn't outstanding. However, it was really good at a good value. Dinning at Laycoff's has a sense of memorabilia and nostalgia. Be patient and enjoy the environment.

I ordered my wings well done and extra crispy, which they were. My only mistake was getting mild sauce, it was rather bland. I had to come home and add a little razzle dazzle to them to spice them up. I ordered 20 wings, and no I didn't eat 20, but if I did, mind ya business. LoL! The cost for 20 wings was just at $24, with tax! That's a great deal in my opinion. I'll try them again, but I'll use the app and I'll get the medium sauce.

My wife loves the chicken tenders. They might be the best chicken tenders you every taste. The chicken is moist and juicy. The breading is a bit thicker, sweet and somewhat crunchy. Their homemade honey mustard dipping sauce is delicious. You can not go wrong with the chicken tenders! The Cole slaw is outstanding as well. It is mayo based and very creamy. The cabbage is fresh and has a nice crisp. The sauce has a little bit of spice and what seems like a hint of horseradish flavoring. Very good! The onion rings on this occasion were tough and overly crunchy. It almost hurt my teeth to bit into them. I've had them before with an outstanding taste. Regardless...these are handsome looking onion rings! I am not a burger fan. However, the Bourbon burger was simply delicious! The meat was tender and cooked to a perfect medium rare texture. The burger just melted in your mouth as you savored the burger juices. The bourbon sauce was very good without dominating the burger meat flavor. The sauce was very mild in spice and did have a slight bourbon flavoring.

Decent BBQ joint on North end of town…read more.. Dropped by Lucille's for the first time on Friday for a work lunch with the crew... Been meaning/wanting to try for a while, but have never got around to it. Ok experience, but there's some areas of attention needed. Pros: Friendly/quick service, outstanding brisket, excellent bbq sauces (I particularly liked the vinegar and spicy sauces), and large portions. Cons: Over-priced, average at best sides, extremely smoky in dining room, and dirty/run down restaurant. Overall our experience was good, but the smoke in the dining room was a real problem that actually had my eyes burning/watering while we were eating (it literally looked like an AARP Club Catholic Church bingo event, it was that smoky inside the restaurant), the food is stupid expensive ($35 lunch, one person), and the sides just weren't good (bland coleslaw and broccoli salad). The restaurant also needs a facelift and desperate deep clean... It had that dirty, grimy, sticky feel on the floors and tables (presumably from all the smoke in the dining room). I still consider Shigs n' Pit to be the far and wide the best BBQ in town, but Lucille's has the potential to be really good if they can make some adjustments, improvements, and clean the place up.

Sweet Smoked Pork Steak with BBQ sauce (Lucille's BBQ, north Lima Road) - tried something…read moredifferent, good value and very tasty I prefer Lucille's BBQ plate selections as I feel they give me good value. A select smoked meat with two sides for $14-16. This gives you a good all around taste of Lucille's offerings. On this trip I selected the sweet smoked pork steak with Mac & Cheese and Wilson baked beans. The entree was $14. The pork steak was a thinly cut piece of pork - maybe 3/4 inch thick. The steak definitely had hints of smokey and grilled flavors. The meat was tender, no pink color and moist. It was easily cut when warm, not as easy as it cooled. This is a large flat piece of meat so it took time to cut into pieces and savor. The BBQ sauce was sweet with no real spicy after taste kick. Glad I tried this selection. I really like the Mac & Cheese as it is very creamy and has a nice cheese flavor. The sauce has some jalapeño pieces - so expect a little heat and kick. The Wilson baked beans are also a bit spicy. There are small pieces of brisket embedded in the sweet savory BBQ bean sauce. Lucille's has a nice selection of other delicious sides for you to try. Lucille's does a nice job with smoked BBQ meats. Make the trip north to the corner of Lima and Wallen Roads. It's worth a try!
