I'd like to thank my guest tasters this week - my husband and four of my colleagues. Tasters are a must for a vegetarian going to a wings place. I am happy to report, however, that there are vegetarian pizza and salad options at Wicked Wings, so it is fine to accompany meat eaters there. Happiness for everyone. (Well, maybe not for vegans.)
This is a new restaurant, only open a few weeks. It is the third restaurant in this location in the last decade. Since its walkable from our house I'd really like it to do well. On a Wednesday night it was packed at 6 pm , that's a good sign. They were originally supposed to open in June, so the people in the neighborhood have been waiting a while. Outdoor seating option is also a bonus, though it isn't very scenic. The inside of the restaurant is decorated in barn wood. Cozy but not dark, and certainly family-friendly.
We ordered onion rings, a caprese pizza for me (pesto, mozzarella, tomatoes) and boneless wings for Eric. There was a mix-up, so we were brought someone else's food instead (bbq and buffalo wings). Which we got to take home, since they couldn't bring it back to the kitchen. (Hence my colleague taste-testers - I brought these bone-in wings to work on Friday). Our waitress was nice, but seemed fairly green - we also had to wait for plates and condiments. But I bet she'll be a pro within the week.
The onion rings needed salt, but were otherwise good. The pizza was fine. Eric said he prefers buffalo wild wings, but that his dinner still tasted good (he chose the pesto and the mango sauces). The lunch crowd at work was happy for the wings surprise, and very much appreciated them. One person asked if they were from Wings over Worcester, and I've only heard favorable reviews of that place.
I'd go to Wicked Wings again. Especially because they have fried mac and cheese balls, which sound interesting. (If only they were on a stick, I think they'd qualify as fair food).
