Came in with my wife for a Sunday lunch out.
I know this strip mall restaurant just opened. So I was expecting not the best food, not the best service, and not the best ambiance.
What I got is a new staple and now I am trying to figure out how to eat there every week.
Ambiance - this was the biggest surprise. For the location, they did a bang up job of doing a simple sports bar vibe without it being too much.
Service - this was where I expected to give the most grace because I know the restaurant was just getting geared up. But our bartender was attentive and quick. Never had to wait long for anything.
Food - we started with the chips and queso. J enjoyed the white queso but the chips were either hearty or a little stale. No worries.
My wife ordered the chicken strips tossed in Hot. I ordered the Wings - Tony's style, which are grilled wings then tossed and seasoned with either Mild, Hot, or Hen Hot. I got the Hot.
So, when it comes to certain items, my wife and I have certain favorites. Unfortunately, those are mostly back in our old home, Oklahoma. So coming to Kentucky, we need to find new favorites.
Upon her first bite, my wife said, "Oh, these are the new favorite tossed strips."
On my first view and first bite, I knew automatically that this will be my go to wing place. Also, I'm a bit spoiled: I only want Tony's style. I can't just have fried. I need the grilled wings with the char and the seasoning on top for now on.
Now, this is not a complaint but an adjustment for the future. I love spicy food. My staple hot sauce is the Tabasco Scorpion. So my Hot wings were a 3.5 on the hotness scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the hottest). My wife said her hot sauced tenders were a 5 to 6.
This makes me so excited: because I will definitely try the hotter flavors like Hen Hot and the others.
Will always be back. Will definitely work from the bar from time to time.
And I am so glad Versailles has a quality wing place.
