    “Food is always good as usual, would recommend the swamp sauce wings with a good southerner style sweet tea.”

    One of Royal Palm Beach's longtime family restaurants probably has some of the best wings in the…read morewestern communities. Plump, juicy, and cooked to perfection with various types of sauces. As a creature of habit, we usually get honey garlic teriyaki - it's finger lickin' good with a side of curly fries. Have tried the ribs in the past and they were solid. It's a family owned restaurant that just has that Florida feel to it when you walk in. We've mostly gone for lunch but this last time we came on a Friday evening. They had a super talented country singer who was maybe 18-20 yrs old but she had the place moving and rocking. It's not our type of live music but she killed it! They also have a bunch of specials, you just have to ask the waiter / waitress.

    When we first walked in, we were greeted right away and told we could sit anywhere. The bar has two…read moredifferent sides: a quieter side and another side where they were hosting trivia. We decided to sit on the trivia side, which made for a fun atmosphere. Overall, it has that typical hole-in-the-wall bar feel, and everyone was very friendly. We were told they're known for their ribs and wings, so I ordered the platter that included both. For appetizers, we got the cheese curds and fried pickles. They were okay, but nothing particularly memorable. When the ribs and wings came out, the first thing I noticed was how much sauce was all over the plate. It looked like someone had tried to wipe some of it away, but it wasn't cleaned up very well. My wings were also cold when they arrived. I mentioned it to the staff, and they were very nice about taking them back and bringing out a fresh plate. While waiting, I tried a wing and the sauce reminded me a lot of ketchup. I had asked for the sauce on the side, but the replacement wings came out completely drenched in it. That was a bit of a turnoff at first, although I have to admit the wings themselves ended up tasting pretty good. The cornbread was probably the weakest part of the meal for me. I just didn't enjoy it. The potato wedges, on the other hand, were decent and had a generous amount of Parmesan on them. Before my second plate of ribs came out, I told the waitress not to bother bringing them because I realized I wasn't a fan of the sauced version. Another customer mentioned that I should have ordered them dry, so at least I know that for next time. All in all, it was an okay experience. The staff was friendly and accommodating, especially when they replaced the cold wings, but the food was hit or miss for me. It's not a place I'm rushing back to, but I wouldn't say it was a bad experience either.

I got their 6-wing combo. The combo comes with a drink and French fries. I requested all flats. I paid a slight upgrade fee for the flats. And asked for the wings well done. Plus I got two different flavors (3 each) of lemon pepper and garlic Parmesan, The chicken wings were great. Cooked as ordered. I liked both flavors. Usually lemon pepper is my go to, but the garlic parm may have been even better. The fries were very good, as well. Hot and crispy. And no yucky coatings. I chose ranch dressing as my dipping sauce. My husband got a 3-piece chicken tenders combo. He chose blue cheese as his dipping sauce. Included fountain drink sodas with the combos were self serve. They had the usual suspects for sodas -- Coke products, plus a whole lot of other choices that you could select from the machine. I had a Diet Coke and he had a Dr. Pepper. So glad we stopped here. We had a very good lunch at a good price.

Ordering online was simple and straightforward. As for the wings, I think they were done exactly like Wingstop does them: super salty, super greasy, super (unnaturally) intensely flavored. So if that's what you're into, go for it. The hot honey on the bone-in wings were decent. On the boneless (I won't call them wings), it was just saturated nonsense. Wings like this are a once-a-year max choice for me.

And several areas for dining inside -- the bar itself and with booths; a pool table area; and other booths and tables in a large room (that can get noisy!). They were pretty full when we came here on a Saturday afternoon. We decided to sit at the bar. We had good service here. My husband enjoyed a draft. They had a couple appealing blackboard specials including a crab bisque soup. We both wound up getting some of this soup. It was thick and very good! My husband got the half sandwich and soup. For his sandwich choice he got roast beef with tomato and onion on rye bread. Except for the edges of the bread being a little tough, he really liked the roast beef. And he liked the crab bisque so much that he got a bowl to go. After my cup of soup, I had their "lazy wings" -- basically chicken tenders. Five large breaded pieces to the order, I got them with teriyaki sauce. They were a bit sticky with a sprinkling of sesame seeds, but very good. For my side I got the veggies (celery and carrots) instead of fries. I wound up taking three of the tenders home. We are already planning what to order next time we come...

This store has been open for a month or two. I held off going when it first opened to avoid disappointment due to lack of training, lack of staffing, or lack of experience. My order was simple. The location was not busy as only one person was eating in the lobby and nobody in the drive through. 4 workers were standing behind the counter gossiping with a customer at the register. The ambiance is like most other locations except there are very few people inside with good reason. The store is cleaner than most but it's less than 2 months old. I ordered saucy nuggs (10 each of all 4 flavors), 2 orders of fries, a Starry, a Mountain Dew Sweet Lightning, and 10 Cherry Pie Poppers. What I got was astounding. I received 30 something nuggets instead of 40. That meant that I got 3 flavors instead of 4. - I was willing to let this go because I didn't want to go back to the restaurant. 2 orders of cold soggy fries that usually are served at KFC so I got what I expected. 1 Starry Soda - no complaints there 1 Pepsi...yes Pepsi instead of Mountain Dew Sweet Lightning. - once again I was willing to overlook this as I enjoy Pepsi. And 3 Cherry Pie Poppers and one regular size Apple pie thrown in the box instead of the other 7 poppers that were missing. That last one shows the complete disregard for me as a customer, my satisfaction, and the money I paid. Total apathy is what makes an order like this happen. Mind you, nobody asked me about substituting anything. Nobody said anything about not having what was ordered. I called the store and spoke with the manager. Diego was receptive and invited me back anytime to get what I was shorted. I am not sure if I'll take him up on that offer. But if I do and everything is good, I'll update this review. But I wouldn't count on it. It's been years since I've had a correctly prepared order at any KFC location in any state.

And…read morelet me tell you why: Three of us came on a Saturday night (5:30pm) and were sat immediately. Ambiance is super cozy, bright, and Italian music plays lightly in the background while the TV rotates beautifully Italian scenery. We were greeted by Maura who brought waters to the table and we perused the menu. Settling on 2 chicken Marsala and 1 chicken penne alla vodka, we were quite pleased to see the restaurant had become half full! Great sign! Our waitress is one half of the dynamic duo owners Nick & Art. Friendly, smiling and very personal, she served us our pre-dinner soup/salad and piping hot garlic parsley butter rolls. The pre-dinner salad came out and was a decent size; crisp lettuce, big ripe chunk tomato, red onion and olives. My hubby said the Italian dressing was really good. My friend and I had one of the soup specials; pasta fagioli. The soup was seasoned perfectly and plenty of perfectly cooked veggies. Oh, and those garlic butter rolls; forget about it! So dang good, I bet you don't eat just one!! The hubby ordered a glass of Pinot Noir with his dinner and us ladies stuck to water. With dinner served, I wondered how I was going to eat so much food! My chicken alla vodka came enough for 3 people. And no, it wasn't just a plate of pasta; big pieces of grilled chicken mixed through the creamy garlicky vodka pasta. The chicken Marsala came out with 2 giant breasts, seasoned with Marsala sauce and angel hair pasta (or your choice of liking) with plenty of mushrooms. The smell was intoxicating! And again, enough for 2 people. With portions this grand and tastes so big, I can see why at this restaurant was packed! Pizzas flying by, lasagnas, Marsalis, Piccata ... oh my! We were celebrating my hubby's bday and were surprised with staff singing while serving his chocolate peanut butter cake. Moist, not too sweet and enough for us to have a bite while he devoured the rest! Choices of Tiramisu, Key Lime, Cannoli's or chocolate cake is on the menu. Leave room for a sweet nosh, you won't be disappointed. Service was impeccable. Food was amazing and the portions cannot be beat. The staff is super friendly, personable and not pushy. The restaurant is clean, as are the restrooms (this says a lot). This is a great local restaurant, who has taken hospitality to another level. We will be back when visiting in the future.
