Best beer there is Budweiser because anything they brew themselves is undrinkable. I don't get how they can't come up with a good burger and some good fries. Plus they gack creme fresh all over everything they make - eww. And if you get nachos they give you a tablespoon of salsa and charge you for the extra you'll inevitably need since you've eaten it all after your first three chips.

The wings are fine, though (if you get them extra crispy).
Well that is bad enough, but my issue starts with the menu. It's this trend where I suppose everyone is a foodie and you can't have a normal menu. I ended up with a spicy chicken sandwich and it was a mess, both literally and figuratively. Like the coleslaw on the sandwich was like soup, the spice from spoonfuls of their sauce and it just drizzled out all over when you tried to eat it. The actual chicken was perhaps a chicken thigh (?) which was really fatty and just not great. I couldn't bring myself to eat it all, although understandably some people might like/enjoy that kind of thing.

And maybe this belongs in the gear-grinder thread, but can a menu just explain what the dish is? Why are we seeing the ridiculous one word comment about the ingredients? Like I say...I'm just not the target audience for these kinds of things and I just wish them well.
