Had a fun night with my daughter watching NBA playoff basketball and sharing some wings and salad. Savannah was an excellent server who helped us pick some great sauces for our wings. Kind of a quiet night here on a Tuesday, but great service and food made it all worthwhile.

Our food was mediocre at best. Everything was over cooked/dry. Our server was friendly, but didn't know how to A. Ring stuff in and B. When we showed her she overcharged, she asked us, "is that ok?". I said no and she just said, "well, thanks for coming in", and walked away. It was too late with tired kids to worry about making it a bigger issue. But, we won't be returning and, we were so excited that they were coming to Jonesville. (The best part, was that they have high-table high chairs if that tells you anything).

Good food good service. The hot wings aren't that hot but have good flavor. The hot flavor tastes better than the three pepper or reaper.

Planned a trip here with my friends who have never been before. I haven’t been since last summer but so much has changed since then. They’ve downsized their menu which no longer features the loaded fries and they don’t feature an extensive drink menu anymore. The BOGO drinks tasted like juice (I ordered margaritas with Don Julio) and the manager on duty admitted that he has gotten several complaints about the drinks not being strong. The service was mediocre and it took a while to get our food and drinks. My friend ordered Gator chips and was surprised that they came out to be $5.99 even though they are listed under regular sides; they also didn’t list a price for the chips. My other friend ordered a side of fries and they came out cold. The Gator Tail used to be good but I was underwhelmed with it this time. Overall, I was so embarrassed that I recommended this place. None of us will be back.

The food might have been 3.5 stars if it had come out hot but it didn’t. The appetizers were lukewarm. I’m not a fan of lukewarm mozzarella sticks & wings. The kiddos had burgers & wings. Husbae had a Cobb salad. I had the buffalo cauliflower. The server was nice but she was stretched thin. Overall the only thing worth a return visit was the buffalo cauliflower; it was sooo good, definitely worth 4.5 stars by itself.Vegetarian options: The Buffalo Cauliflower was SO GOOD!
