    Wings
    Reshonda S.

    We arrived to this bar at 10pm. Most locations in the area are closed around this time, so it was great that we had a food option. The wings were really good. A bit too crispy and I would have loved more sauce, but still really good. The service was quick and the bartenders were very kind.

    We had a watch party at Friends. They were gracious hosts that let us invade the bar area with cheering and loud celebrations. Thanks

    Good for drinks and wings. I'd also recommend the PBJ burger. Service is hit or miss.

    Hubby and I were driving through and decided to stop in for dinner. Without reservations we were…read moreseated quickly. All the staff were so friendly, especially Bri our server, she was great! We sat down to a "Cajun night" menu to which I inquired if that's like a weekly thing or what and was explained that they will occasionally do various themes and recently had done Italian. They had Cajun music playing and a full Cajun menu, it felt like we were in Louisiana which I am very familiar with, I have roots there. I think having themed nights is a very clever way to bring a variety of fine dining options to a small town that doesn't have a lot of restaurant options. Fully support! Love the concept! Having had frog legs before I didn't feel the need to explore again so didn't choose those. I instead opted for some more cozy comforts such as the Crawfish étouffée and Duck Andouille Gumbo. Both were delicious, my only gripe would be the presentation was quite lacking. Traditionally, for either of those dishes, the rice is served from a cup as a topper, not the gumbo or étouffée spooned atop the rice. But the flavor hit it out of the park. Hubby ordered the Blackened Redfish and this is where the chef's talents shine. This was the winning dish of the evening. Hubby hates okra, I love it, and I'd never had it grilled before though and I'll be using that cooking technique in the future, especially since hubby actually likes okra finally. But I don't want to focus on okra for a fish dish. The blackened redfish was so well seasoned and perfectly flaky, the pinto beans had great flavor as well. We finished our meal out with the beignets and coffees (hubby espresso and me a latte) which paired perfectly with the beignets. We ate them politely with the fork and knife provided though if you ain't covered in powdered sugar or accidentally proofing powdered sugar across the table when you take a bite are you even doing it right? ;) but they were delicious, everything was. Again the only suggestion I have is to consider presentation. The dishes looked a bit bland for the amount of flavor they packed. A slice of that grilled okra on top of my Gumbo or just anything simple would've gone a long way. Overall I'll give 5 stars. I have no complaints. The restaurant's vibe and decor are great, service was great, food was delicious. We had a great night!

    Top 10 Meal of Our Lives!…read more We just had dinner at The Bistro on Broad in Winder, and it absolutely blew us away. We're no strangers to good food--we're certified foodies--and this meal easily cracked the top 10 meals of our lives. We started with the pimento cheese and gnocchi to share, and both were downright insane in the best way. Creamy, rich, balanced--like Southern comfort and fine dining had a baby. For entrées, we ordered the shrimp & grits and the Campanella with beef ragout... and then proceeded to eat off each other's plates all night because we genuinely couldn't decide which one we liked better. The shrimp & grits were smoky, buttery perfection, and the ragout was slow-cooked, soul-warming magic. Dessert? Blueberry cobbler and chocolate bread pudding. We were already full, but we pushed through like champions. Both were ridiculously good--the kind of good that makes you consider licking the plate. And major shoutout to Bree, our server--she was absolutely wonderful. Friendly, attentive, and spot-on with every recommendation. She made the experience even better. Everything from the food to the atmosphere to the service was top notch. Winder is lucky to have this gem. If you haven't been yet--go. And bring stretchy pants.

    Me and a buddy stopped in after work tonight and both ordered a soda and the $15.99 all you can eat…read moreshrimp/boneless wings/riblets. The waiter was clearly in a poor mood and seemed frustrated to be there. After taking our order, our waiter did not come back to check on us again unless we specifically called his attention to us, which I finally did after almost thirty minutes. I asked how much longer our FIRST plate of the all you can eat deal would be out. The waiter disappeared again and left the empty cups without offering a refill. Five minutes later the food comes out, I had started with fried shrimp and my friend with garlic Parmesan boneless wings. The waiter asked "can I get you some extra napkins or extra silverware?" despite having not given us napkins or silverware to start with. We asked for silverware and he left, once again leaving empty cups. My first bite was met with a lukewarm breading and a patch of ice cold shrimp in the center. My friends garlic Parmesan wings had miraculously been replaced by buffalo. I tried another shrimp and found it to be just above room temperature. We both decided to eat what was in front of us due to having an hour drive home each and not wanting to wait another 30 minutes. The manager saw that we didn't appear satisfied and came by to tell us that she had discounted the meal to account for the issue. The manager and waiter both walked away, AGAIN leaving empty drink cups. Abandoning any hope of my waiter or the manager making the bare minimum effort to simply refill our drinks, I walked the empty cups to the bar to get my own refills. I asked for the check and the waiter brought it to me along with the correct wings for my friends order in a to-go box, which is the closest thing to customer service we got that night. I opened the check to find a $5 discount on our $41 ticket. I already had my card out but the waiter immediately walked away. Ten minutes later he returned with the receipts. I had to flag him down AGAIN to get a pen to sign the receipts. Ultimately, the staff at this location all appear frustrated and angry just being there, and it shows in their actions and their words. During our visit I overheard staff members half-heartedly apologize to every table around us, whether it be the wait time, cold food, or an order being wrong (I guess we just hit the trifecta). The service at this restaurant is non-existent, the quality is standards are lower than a RaceTrac pizza. If you are looking for a decent meal, go across the street to the QuikTrip gas station and see what you can find in the trash can. You'll get a better meal, and infinitely better service.
