The food and service were excellent. The restaurant was very noisy - hard to hear the wait staff or hold a conversation.

4 pof us went on a Wednesday Night. The place wasn't suoer busy so that was good. We sat in a booth and ordered the all you can eat wings. The wings came out very quickly and were very tastey. One suggestion for the Staff, they should provide large paper bib's for you to cover your clothes. As hard as I tried, I still managed to get sauce on my top and hands and face. Was a great night. I went home very full.
