I placed the order online before I even pulled in -- love when that works out smoothly. We did 10 naked wings with honey BBQ sauce on the side for me and 10 Blazin Q for my husband (he was aiming for Snobby Q but pivoted). We also got a large salt & pepper fry and a regular lemon pepper fry to share. Everything was hot, fresh, and fried well. No soggy wings, no limp fries. The inside felt calm and welcoming, and the staff was cool and accommodating. Honestly, it was just a solid visit. Good deal, good food, no stress. Would definitely come back.

The tenders were very big. You could definitely get a 2 tender meal and still be satisfied. The Nashville dry rub was spicier than other places, we liked it. The garlic parm fries were good, but I'm not sure I would get them again, they were really oily. The ranch was really good and I'm happy that the combos come with 2 sauces with no additional charge. The tables were a bit dirty but that might be because they need to be cleaned after every use due to it being a menu of generally messy food. I will be trying it again!

I sat at the bar where Mae very thoughtfully helped me navigate through the extensive been menu. I was very impressed at the selections! She brought me three tasters and, honestly, each of them were fantastic. It seems fitting that I chose a pint of Conflict of Interest in the midst of a difficult decision! The food menu is just as impressive. I'm certain anyone can find a favorite. I ordered the blackened chicken gnocchi and found myself in flavor heaven. I've made and eaten a lot of gnocchi and this is easily the best I've ever had. Mae agreed with me and suggested it's because there's cheese in those potato pillows. I dunno but I would eat this every day if I could. If I thought they'd keep, I'd buy extra and take some home. Meanwhile the bar crowd was friendly and chatty as we watched soccer on a few TVs. It was pretty chill, everyone just kicking back with great beer, tasty food and a worldwide sporting event. That said, I'm not waiting four years to come back!

Sat outside most recently and brought our toddler. She got to run around and explore. The fineapple cider on draft is my favorite and so refreshing. Menu wise has so many options. We went with the beer bites and cheese. The food cane out hot and the cheese is so good with the pretzels. The kids grilled cheese was a big size and tasty. Love the shoestring fries. So impressed with all of their drinks they make in house. Came another time for dinner with a friend to catch up. A large group took over the dining room. Stayed way past they were done with their food and drink. They stayed 5 hours and disrupted the restaurant. Our waitress gave us a small discount for how annoying these people were.

However this particular location is without fail one of the dirtiest restaurants I've ever been inside. The drink station is always a mess and not stocked with lids or straws. The tables are always sticky feeling and the floors and overall feel is grimy. Typically, I'd chalk this up to understaffed like most places take my food to-go and carry on. However, it seems like there is no one properly running this location. There were teenage customers behind the counter chatting with their friends working there and walking around near the food prep area. It's no wonder there was a line of people waiting for orders and a dirty dining room. Aside from being a health hazard, my last two orders have also had incorrect items which I didn't discover until I got home. I wouldn't recommend or return to this location.

We ordered a bunch of different things as we have 3 kids and just wanted variety. Burger, chicken sandwich, Cuban, chicken wings, chicken parm with spaghetti, fries, and fried pickles. The burger was the best thing imo - but most restaurants have burgers. I would have rather just ordered from a local diner. Food is kinda cold on arrival and looks meh. The value - you are betting on Guy Fieri's name and image. Basically, the man that brought us such gems as Planet Hollywood and Hard Rock Cafe is teaming up with celebrities to make money on the bankrupt chains he has purchased (Bravo and Brio). Apparently Youtuber Mr. BEAST Burgers is run out of the same kitchen but has better reviews. My 10 year old loved Guy's Virtual Bravo. I suppose I might consider ordering again if she asked, but then again - I would have given the burger 2/5 stars. I will say that I took the remaining chicken wings and covered them in Red Hot powder and baked them the next day - they were great cooked longer with extra seasoning baked on.

At each table gloves, chopsticks, hand sanitizer, plastic straws, and plastic utensils were provided. Which is such a thoughtful touch. The fried chicken was SUPER juicy and tender with a cornflake fried batter covered in chosen sauces. There were so many flavor options to choose from, which made it fun to decide. The pieces were huge, so the price felt completely worth it. The servers were especially kind and patient with us as first-timers. They took the time to explain the most popular flavors and gave great recommendations, which we really appreciated. The only downside were the sides. The onion rings and fries didn't seem to have any seasoning. So, they tasted a bit plain compared to the bold, flavorful chicken. I'd definitely come back for the chicken alone. If you're craving crispy, juicy fried chicken with tons of flavor options, this is a spot worth trying!
