Amid all of the negative reviews, I will focus mostly on the positive. My wife and I tried Tipsy Chicken because we were in the mood for Hot Wings and had recalled someone recommending this establishment because the Wings were large. So, seeking the most bang for our buck, we decided to give it a go. First Impression: Oh! This is actually a BAR! ...and Yes. I did feel quite naive for not having put two and two together, given the "Tipsy" in the name. That, my dear Yelpers, is called a "clue." Anyhoo... we stayed and made the most of the moment. My wife and I are on a keto diet again - or, at least we are making a best attempt - so, we both wanted a low carb beer choice. Sadly there was no Yuengling Flight or Corona Premier and neither of us drink Miller Lite or Michelob "Ultra" (yuck!)... so, we just went ahead and ordered a REAL "Bier" and opted for Heineken. We also both ordered Wings and a House Salad. My wife had the Mild Wings and I had half Cajun and half Damn Hot. The Bier was very cold which was a major plus. My wife, who is a low-level chilihead, said the Mild Wings were a five on the heat scale. I am somewhat of a high level chilihead and my Cajun Wings were about a two, to two and a half, while the Damn Hot Wings definitely hit a five. The Wings were good, although a tad bit overdone, with a couple of the flats having broken bones, which I know is off-putting to some eaters. Overall, I enjoyed the Wings. The house salads were plentiful and made with a mixture of greens with a LOT of crunch that was mostly from what I concluded was the carrots and lettuce pieces that were cut close to the head. Because the salads were served in oddly-shaped bowls and, because the Tipsy is dimply lit, it was difficult for me to see into my salad bowl. My wife, however, was able to see quite well into her bowl, and after catching some "movement" on the inside edge of her bowl, she retrieved a small fly that she believes was in the mixed greens. No Bueno! Our Server, Destiny, was very friendly, very pleasant and very attentive. Tipsy, while very musty and almost foul from years of cigarette smoking appeared clean and well kept otherwise. The restrooms were cleaned and stocked, just obviously aged. I may re-visit Tipsy Chicken again, but at this point I am not yet 100% decided. In case you are considering a trip to this "joint," here's some good info for you: Weekly Specials: SUN - Hamburger and Waffle Fries $4.99 (Cheese add $1.00) MON - Half Price Boneless Wings (aka: Chicken Nuggets) TUE - $0.99 Street Tacos (Beef or Chicken) WED - $0.50 Hot Wings (Hard to Beat That Deal!) THU - BLT Sandwich Special FRI - All You Can Eat Catfish $10.99 (Fries/Hushpuppies not AYCE) SAT - Chicken Fried Steak Special Eat Well. Be Well. Cheers!

definitely just like you would want a dive bar to be! the atmosphere is excellent, with the customers and staff, having fun, making jokes and pool tables! it just like you see in the movies the kitchen is soooooo delicious. it was cooked fresh and you can ate the homemade difference with this kitchen. cheese sticks made in house from scratch, wings are bigger then any place I've been to around there, plus with the sauces and the cold drinks made by a awesome cheers style bartender. I have to say it's really great to watch them have drinks ready as I walk through the door and knowing exactly what so many others drink. and guess what!? they can actually remember names around these parts food is a 10/10 staff is a 10/10 service is a 10/10

Tipsy Chicken is your quintessential dive bar. Went here because it was one of the few restaurants open on the Fourth of July. Walked into a smoke filled room which took me back to the 80s when people still smoked inside. This alone was disgusting but I overlooked it to get some food and leave. I asked the bartender for an old fashioned and he told me he didn't have the necessary bitters to make one. Like what? How do you not have the ingredients to make a standard bar drink. After that I ordered a sprite and some chicken wings and waited on the outside patio until my food was ready. The chicken wings were okay but this place is definitely for dive bar enthusiast.

I had the worst day of my life back in December, so I strolled down to the local pub. As I came in the bouncer said, "the ladies need to talk to you." I thought well my luck is about to turn around! I followed him to the bar where I was belittled, berated, and emasculated by the bartender, meghan. She stated that I came into the parking lot at a high rate of speed (impossible if you knew what I drove), was seen swerving through the lot (I stopped to look into the window), then said that I failed to park properly and hit the brick wall with my vehicle (unfortunately none of this is true). She then went on with a few derogatory statements, mostly about me being a drunk and the like. She refused me service, referencing the policy to refuse service to anyone, claiming that I was already too intoxicated.

If you're looking for a party in Sachse (and you smoke or don't mind smoke), this is the place. Adam, Bree, and Charlie got it going on.

The staff is always friendly and pleasant, and you can tell they genuinely enjoy working here. There are plenty of seating options: a cozy bar area, three separate dining rooms, a large patio with its own bar, and even picnic tables out back. I think the upstairs may be reserved for private events. Every time I visit, I end up ordering the same thing because it's just that good--the Naked Chicken three-piece. Absolutely delicious! I'm also glad they now offer two sides with your entrée for a small extra charge. The mac & cheese and green beans are both amazing. I've tried a cocktail or two, but usually skip them since the portions are small for the price. Overall, this is such a fun, charming spot with consistently great food. Definitely one of my go-to favorites! Add it to the Love List

Who would have thought the historic Oliver house in Rowlett would be transformed into a…read moreMexican-Inspired Fried Chicken spot? Not me! Brick and Bones Backyard is a blue house on the corner of Main St. in Rowlett, Tx, that has been transformed into something magical. This Mexican-Inspired "chicken shop" is offering fried & rotisserie chicken, classic cocktails, and live music in a rustic setting. The menu is diverse and offering all things chicken that is brined 24 hours, fried and can be order breaded or naked( for the gluten-free in you). They also have rotisserie chicken, tenders, sandwiches, salads, bowls and wings, along with unique sides. Poblano mashed potatoes, habanero mac n cheese, mexican corn, etc... often garnished with fresh radish and cilantro around out the menu, with top notch service to boot. Mi marido ordered the breaded fried chicken, mexican corn and poblano mashed potatoes and gravy. The chicken was well seasoned with a great crunch. The potatoes had good flavor, but were barely warm. I can imagine their greatness heated. The mexican corn on the other hand was the real elote deal! The fresh snap of sweet corn, dosed with cotija cheese and spices lives up to the hype! Sweet, spicy, savory, it hit all the flavor profiles. I had the naked chicken with an order crinkle fries(faves) which was greatly appreciated for it's gluten-freeness and flavor. However, it was abit overcooked. Which left it thready and a little dry. The sauce that accompanied it, was needed, but shouldn't have been, while the fries were fresh, but undercooked. The concept and flavors make Brick & Bone standout on the chicken front. Better execution can make it a cut above the rest. Check It Out!

Interesting fast casual/counter order restaurant. They had a lot of traditional pizzas, but also…read moresome very unique options as well. The man at the counter was friendly and patient as we perused the menu a bit! We ordered 2 pizzas between the 3 of us: 1) Large hand tossed Hawaiian pizza 2) medium thin crust tikka masala pizza We had about 4 small slices of leftover pizza after our meal. The pizzas were good, and my favorite between the two would be the tikka masala pizzas. I loved the spicy chicken and fresh cut cilantro! I couldn't tell the difference between the thin crust and hand tossed pizza. They both looked and tasted the same, tbh. -1 star because the restaurant itself was hot, and smelled unpleasant.

The pizzas here are unique for sure. The flavors are good. The problem is the prices you pay in…read morestore do not match the prices on their site if you order online. I'm not talking about online-only deals. Just the normal prices. I did not realize this until today. I WFH and this place is on the way home from my wife's job. Due to issues in the past with me ordering online and places giving her a hard time for not being me when she goes to pick the item up, she prefers to just ask me what to get, call in the order and pay in the store. Today we ordered one of the new naan lamb pizzas. When she got home she mentioned the naan pizza was pretty small (about 8 inches across or so) for the $17 she was charged. I was like.. $17? That was supposed to be $12. Showed her the prices online and compared to the receipt and it seems a mystery $5 was added to the base price. We looked back at the last time we got a medium detroit style pan that should have been $19 and it was $25. Not sure what's going on here other than maybe they're just adding the bs doordash/grubhub tax to all pickup orders but that seems kinda crappy.

I have always been skeptical of these pop up hot chicken joints, but let me tell you this was…read moreamazing! I ordered the #3 combo of a slider and tender with fries, and an order of elotes. The chicken patties used are top tier- full juicy filets, no hard edges or flattened out stringy pieces. It was cooked and seasoned to perfection as I chose "hot" and it was not too much. The pickles were great and the coleslaw on the sandwich. The fries are the biggest crinkle cut and perfectly cooked. The Elotes were also amazing with the spicy mayo. It was very good and I'll be going back! 5/5

Jason ordered the Lava #1 (2 mild strips) and I got the Lava #2 (2 hot chicken sliders). The "hot" was more of a medium kick, while the mild still had great flavor without much heat--so definitely approachable for anyone easing into spice. I also helped myself get some mac & cheese since it was a cold and rainy day, but to be honest I probably would've gotten some mac & cheese anyways. Delicious! Also have to shout out Alex--super patient, helpful with the menu, and honestly just great service all around. He anticipated what we needed before we even had to ask, which you don't see often. Really made the experience even better. And I have to add--I'm usually not a fan of crinkle fries, but these were actually spot on. We'll definitely be back!
