Anything that is wing related truly has my attention. it could be "Underwear and Wings", "Maps and Wings", you name it, if it says wings on it, I'm in. So, Josie's Pizza & Wings had me wondering about it. A group of friends mentioned this place as one of the favorite places for wings, so I figured why not try them. I was at an event in the tourist area, so after i was done I cruised that way to Metro West.
I ordered the Rustic Mushroom pizza, which is a white pizza, and I ordered wings, one half with Buffalo/hot sauce, and one half with butter/garlic/Parmesan sauce. The wings came first, so I dug in. They were good, not overcooked, but the sauces were not perfect. The flavors were a little bit dulled, which seems to be an issue in many places that prefer the low salt diet. In other words, the wings were OK. Then the pizza came and that took away all the flavor out of my mouth. The pizza was good, but the contrast was just too much for me to enjoy it. The mushrooms were well cooked, it was cheesy, a good pizza, but on the sweet side. I packed up what was left and skedaddled to my next adventure.
Josie's Pizza & Wing is a very chill place. The lights are dim, it feels like a bar rather than a pizza place. Lots of people pick up their food, not many sit down. They had big brand beers, which doesn't interest me. Service was amazing, the people were friendly and funny sometimes, I would probably enjoy this place more sitting at the bar than eating pizza.
A moment of redemption must be written in. I got home and put my almost whole pizza on the counter, and someone ate it. When I asked around, I got an apology. Someone took a bite and couldn't stop eating it. Almost a whole pizza! Well, I guess someone really liked it. "Different strokes for different folks", they say.
