    Soon after landing in Georgia, we wanted to set off in search of some of that famed "Southern hospitality." That journey wasn't a lengthy one as we soon had the good fortune of meeting Adrienne at "Smokey Bones" in Columbus. She immediately greeted us with genuine warmth and made us feel right at home! We decided to go "all in" on our "all rib" entrees and enjoyed both their "Signature House Smoked Ribs" and their "Imported Baby Back Ribs." While the deliciousness of their ribs was of no surprise, the quality of their sides was and the "Mashed Potato and Gravy" and the "BBQ Baked Beans" were good enough to emerge from the shadow of their entrée counterparts and forge their individual paths. I have to admit that I felt excitedly like we were being admitted to an exclusive Southern fraternity/sorority when Adrienne mentioned that she'd be bringing a "bone bag" to accompany our meals. I (eventually) figured out that she was bringing us a paper bag...for us to put our bones into...when we were finished with them. (It's ok if you feel the need to read that a few times over to get the gist. That just means that you and I could then start that exclusive fraternity/sorority that I mistakenly thought already existed! ‍) While enjoying some BBQ in the South was something I had always aspired to experience, I also had my first taste of "Sweet Tea" and it was everything that I had hoped for. Sweet and flavorful, but without being ridiculously amped up with cups full of sugar. It was "tastefully done" just as I had imagined! Thanks Adrienne and "Smokey Bones" for welcoming us to the South! And that's...Henry's Take. #southernbbq #smokeybones

    I ordered the pulled chicken. It wasn't cooked properly. It was very tough and cut into chunks. The wings were good.

    Food is decent but over the top pricey. This is a FLINT STONE restaurant charging RICHIE RICH prices and the empty parking lot proves it.

    We went to the Wild Wing Cafe yesterday for the first time in ages. This was a reliable decent…read moreplace to go to. Oh well, not anymore. The place was apparently sold and caters to a ... different ... demographic now. It seriously was like feeding time at the zoo. Any conversation was impossible. Even our server, when she wasn't busy shucking and jiving with other party animals, couldn't hear when we placed our pretty simple food and beverage order. Very frustrating, and a sign of things to come. The smell of marijuana in the parking lot should have tipped us off. No drinks appeared after 15 minutes. Finally three of the four drinks arrived. The first food arrived 26 minutes later ... but only two of our four orders. Eleven more minutes passed, no food, at which point we walked out. The sheer "din" of the noise was painful. People were screaming to be heard in conversation. We couldn't take it. We paid and left. And the cashier person (I hope it was a cashier) thought it was funny. It wasn't. I should have read the current Yelp and Google reviews before choosing this place. Disaster! RIP, Wild Wings. Enjoy that new demographic.

    Worst customer service in history.... Rude staff... Nasty Food.. Small wings... long wait... can't…read morehandle big parties... nasty menus...nasty bathrooms... I can go on & on plus nobody was in there we should've turned around when we saw it was tumble weave and dust considering it was 4 other people in there... double charged my family members card which is FRAUD by the way... consumer protection will be called
