Every time I've gone, they're top notch, flavorful, and extra crispy, and has really become my go-to place when I'm in town and craving wings. The only reason I'm giving it 4/5 is because of the inconsistent service. While my times the service is reasonable, it's never really been a place that I would consider to have "top notch" service on any of my visits, not that I'm necessarily expecting that from a dive bar. However, it still remains an area I feel could be improved. Nonetheless, a great place to try if you've never been!

My other granddaughter had garlic Parmesan boneless wings and she said they were one of the best she had the sauce had a good amount of taste.

I like the "neighborhood atmosphere" of this place, and the food is usually quite good. Today 7-24-26, I went in as a sole customer at approximately 2:00 PM -- a non-busy time -- and sat at a 2 person table a few feet from the bar. I was ignored for approx. 17 minutes. I was starting to wonder if they perhaps only did bar service at that time, but no signs were posted, and no one said a word to me. Furthermore, a few other customers, came in at this point & also sat at tables. Just before I was ready to walk out (20 minutes of being ignored is the limit) , the barkeep called over to ask if a server had seen me. I responded "No" and she said she'd let her know I was there. Nothing. After about 5-6 more minutes, the barkeep herself came & took my order which included food & a drink. The food, (their Friday fish), as stated before, was great. Absolutely no server checked on me during the 50 minutes between my food being served, and the time I left, to see if I needed anything. The barkeep called over to me once, about 5 minutes after my food arrived, to ask if I needed anything. At one point, in addition to the barkeep, I counted 3 other employees going in & out of the back room, and two of them were actively serving -- other patrons. Patrons at other tables--couples, and gentlemen -- were checked on numerous times during this period. After I had finished eating, I sat with my remaining food to one side, and an empty drink, for approx 25 minutes. Finally a server stopped literally 5-6 feet from my table -- didn't even actually come to my table-- & called over "Do you need anything?" I suspect my "infuriated vibes" were starting to permeate the premises at that point. I responded that I needed a box & my tab. Had I been approached even 20 minutes earlier, I probably would have ordered another drink. Honestly, this was disappointing in a place I really have had warm thoughts on. Will it stop me from going in again? Probably not... the food is good, and that's primarily what I'm there for. But my strategy will likely be different next time. 'Not as a quiet, polite & reserved female customer. I suppose I'll need to "belly up to the bar" along with the rest of the dudes.
