I came in to catch the end of the game. things weren't going well energy was low and the crowd wasn't into it. these things happen. ordered a beer got some wings and the wings came out cold. oh no, right? I hate complaining about mistakes. the bartender asked if everything was ok and I took a deep breath and let her know how my experience was going. Like I said I hate complaining, but I was immediately glad that I did. not only did she respond quickly, not only did everything get made right without much fuss, but the whole team came to to have her back. my issue was handled and I never felt awkward about it. what really made this a 5 star review was watching the staff come together to handle adversity. This is where professionalism meets reality. it's hard to have a complaint come up but I felt very much like I got taken care of as a person and not a number and that's rare in today's numbers oriented world. The wings were insanely crispy with good accoutrements. the beers were fresh and tasty and the whole attitude of the staff really changed my whole night.

Tucked away in the Paoli Shopping Center, Baxter's American Grille is a neighborhood…read morehappy-tappy/restaurant/sports bar serving up an eclectic mix of comfort fare, pub grub, classic sandwiches, and house specialties. It's pretty obvious that Baxter's isn't exactly the Ritz... but neither is it pretending to be. On the other hand, if you're in the mood for a burger & brew, or just some laid back comfort fare, it's definitely a place to consider. After all, man does not live by foie gras alone. I've always been of the opinion that each restaurant should be evaluated individually - on the basis of how well it fulfills its own particular raison d'être - not en masse. But regardless of where you're dining - however humble or upscale - it's always a good idea to go with what the restaurant's kitchen does (or proports to do) best. Based upon my years of experience as a food writer, the dishes that Baxter's - and restaurants of similar ilk - seem to do best are those that require the least amount of fuss. Take a gander at Baxter's globe-trotting menu... you find such diverse items as steaks & prime rib, chicken parm, Thai stir fry, all-American calf's liver, and a variety of seafood... There's simply too much going for the kitchen's reach not to exceed its grasp... If I want an 8-ounce filet, I'll go to a steakhouse; if I prefer chicken parm, I'll pay a call at my favorite Italian restaurant. Thai stir fry? My go-to Asian eatery... And when I chow-down at Baxter's, as I have over the years, I stick to the pub-grub or similar fare. This, of course, doesn't guarantee success... but it certainly puts the odds solidly in my favor. During our most recent visit, however, my permanent dining companion and I decided to take the "comfort food" route - she settling on the Fish & Chips; I opting for the Home-Style Meatloaf - both of which proved to be somewhat disappointing. When I think about fish & chips, I can't help but recall an incident that took place several years ago... My companion and I were visiting a New Jersey restaurant (thankfully now defunct) that I planned to review. We were seated at the bar enjoying a preprandial libation and checking out the menu. When my companion spied the fish & chips, she asked the bartender his opinion. "What can you do to fish & chips," he shrugged. Well, actually you can do a lot - in this particular case, none of it good. For no matter how straightforward a dish may be, a kitchen can find any one of a number of ways to muck it up. I'll spare you the gory details... but let me simply say that the sorry specimen we were served has remained the worst representative of the genre it has ever been our displeasure to ingest. Fortunately, Baxter's version, while not exactly receiving my dining partner's enthusiastic imprimatur, at least did not incur her wrath. The haddock was at the peak of good health, she said, the batter judiciously applied & done to a golden brown, and the accompanying sweet potato fries perfectly crisp and beyond reproach... Her final word on the matter: "Acceptable." ... And the same could be said for my meatloaf. Hardly the incredible "diner" meatloaf of childhood memory - for which I constantly search - but adequate nonetheless. On the positive side, the texture, neither too dense nor too mushy, was right on the money. And the portion size, as you'll note from the photograph, was certainly generous. On the other hand, the meat lacked anything even approximating seasoning... And the flood of bland-leading-the-bland brown gravy did little to ameliorate the situation. The pillow of mashed potatoes was so-so at best... But, kudos to the kitchen, the side of house-made coleslaw was quite good. Dessert choices round up all the usual suspects... Dark Chocolate Mousse... Apple Crumb Pie a la Mode... New York Cheesecake... Carrot Cake... and Baxter's Brownie Sundae (pictured). This latter offering is clearly the way to go. A Ghirardelli triple chocolate brownie is crowned with vanilla ice cream, splashed with caramel and chocolate sauces, and finished off with whipped cream and a cherry. Yes, very old-fashioned... but very good, very rich, and very suitable for sharing.

Crispy, saucy, and perfect in that old-school way that feels like the 90s never ended. I honestly thought every Hooters in the area had vanished like an old roadside sign. Then I checked out the new Netflix House and, by pure luck, realized this place was still here. A survivor. And thank God for that, because the wings are still great and still fairly priced. Now, full honesty: the place feels a bit dingy. Not dirty -- just worn from 30+ years of laughter, beer, and big nights. It's got that "Vegas showgirl in her 60s" vibe -- still iconic, still knows the routine, but you can see the years in the corners. If it were up to me? I'd strip it down to the studs and rebuild it exactly the same: bright, classic, knotty pine everywhere. That stuff isn't expensive, and it would bring the whole place back to life. Still... I'm glad it's here. And if you're craving real, nostalgic, no-nonsense wings, you'll be glad too.

One thing I was happy to see was a happy hour with happy hour prices. $6 drinks and $6 food items can't be beat! I had a mango mojito followed by an apple margarita. I had the chips and guacamole, chicken tacos, and their famous (to me) bread pudding. That bread pudding is still as delicious as I remembered it to be. The bartender was nice and managed the crowd very well. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and would definitely return when I'm in the area again.

As there were only three people working in the restaurant, one was tending the bar, one was taking orders, and one was wheeling the food out on a cart, and it was busy with sports families, which seem to be the main clientele, it took some time for the lone server to take our order, but he checked in on us and apologized for the delays.

Another 15 mins another waiter comes and asks if we ordered drinks. We said we did and he asked what we ordered. He brought the drinks out. We ordered Crispy Calamari as an appetizer. It was room temp and chewy. We ate about half before we couldn't take it anymore. We each ordered the COOL RIVER SALAD which said it was; Danish bleu cheese crumbles, Granny Smith apple, candied pecans, maple vinaigrette. Problem was each had big bowl of mixed greens. A pinch of blue cheese. I couldn't find mine. 4-5 pieces of candied pecans and what looked like shredded apple sticks which was wasn't even from a single Apple slice. I thought it was a garnish. It was pathetic. When we flagged down a waiter we asked for some more blue cheese and apples. Waiter didn't even acknowledge our request and returned with a single side cup half filled with blue cheese. Non apples. I was pissed but I got the look from the wife to let it go. She ordered a loaded baked potato which came out dry which had a dab of sour cream an essence of butter, a pinch of cheese, bacon and 3 scallions on it. She asked for more Sour Cream and butter and they brought out another dab of sour cream and side order of melted butter. Not one inquiry as to how the food was. But they were quick to bring check. Other families were coming in and not getting seated either. Saw a few leave which was probably best. We should have also. Not worth the time or the effort.
