    Wings
    Daviyion J.

    Went for dinner on a Monday night which conveniently was .50 wing night. they are for a variety of flavors and preparations for the wings which were great and I tried the House sauce and medium. Both were good with the house sauce being the stand out for me. It sort of had a honey sweetness to it but I can't pin down one of the other flavors there. I could of taken the wings a bit crispier, but if I were to return I'd just asked for that next time. Despite how busy it was and a special for the night, it didn't take long for the wings to come out. Also had a beer which was cheap. My service experience was pretty standard. I ordered at the bar and my food was brought to my table. They did check in on me at the table and I just paid at the bar when I was done eating. Note this place is cash only.

    We discovered our new favorite the weekend before quarantine. We came on a Friday night for our sons' birthday. I'd been wanting to try it, and the place our sons originally picked out was packed. They have a bar and a restaurant with inexpensive diner food, but it's higher quality than we've ever had for diner food. My husband had an angus burger made medium rare to order. That right there is above and beyond the basic medium well burgers most diners sell, but the price was still reasonable. It tasted so great, we both came back for one that Sunday. I had the beer battered fish fingers, which were amazing. I love fish fries but a whole fish can be overwhelming. These were more manageably sized and tasted just as good, if not better. One of my sons had mild wings that were just right for him. The other had his usual chicken tenders and fries. They were juicy and not overcooked. Service was great both times we came. They are currently offering to-go. I look forward to our next meal there. For now we hope to patronize them as often as we can. I've been thinking about the fish fingers all week.

    I was in Olcott today with a friend who has a cottage there. She suggested we stop at a local 'hole in the wall" Maxwell's for lunch. Her words and she was right. The restaurant is old diner style. Though she said they had an awesome BLT sandwich. The place was an old fire station and has a lot of items on the walls reminisce of those days. This being the off season the bar is closed in the afternoon and the restaurant area was empty. We walked around the dark bar. I'm told they have a great buffet when the Bill's are playing and also a pretty good Taco Tuesday. Also decent prices on drinks. So we were the only customers. We both ordered the BLT on rye bread with a side of sweet potato fries. I have to say it was the best BLT I've ever had! The bread was toasted perfectly and there was an over abundance of bacon. Hey if I'm going to splurge and eat bacon I like getting a lot! The side of sweet potato fries were pretty good also. I saw the one and only other review on this place and my experience was nothing like theirs. My friend said she's been there many times as a neighborhood regular and never had any problems with the service.

    Food is good and it definitely has local flavor. If you are looking for fine dining this is not the place to go.

    As the name suggests, this is an open air bar. It's more a biker/dive bar vibe, but welcoming to…read moreeveryone. They often have live music. There is seating at a small bar, under a pavilion area and picnic tables on the lawn. I visited on a Wednesday night for $.50 wings, which can be ordered in multiples of 5. When I walked up to the bar to order, I saw they had dry rub salt & vinegar wings on as a special, so I didn't bother to look at the actual menu; I knew I had to have the salt & vinegar. I also got an unsweetened tea to drink, but they have a full bar available for your drinking pleasure. The bartender who took my order was very nice. After I ordered I was asked where I was going to sit so they could bring my order when it was ready. Despite the bar being quite busy, my food was out in a reasonable amount of time. My wings were fresh, hot and oh so flavorful! They also had a perfectly crispy skin and moist and tender meat inside. I've had salt & vinegar wings before, but some of them, I kinda questioned, are these actually salt & vinegar??? haha... I assume they must have been tossed in the seasoning rather than dry rubbed. Dry rubbing them as Open Air does makes all the difference.. they were so salty & vinegary! I will definitely have them again and recommend them to anyone who loves salt & vinegar as I do!

    We've been meaning to come here ever since it first opened. My husband enjoyed his burger. It was…read morecooked medium rare to order. My son devoured the entirety of his fish and chips, and it was a huge fillet. I had golden beer battered shrimp. The shrimp was plump and perfectly cooked. The batter is light and tasty. No honey mustard if that's what you like for your salad (fries for me). My son and husband really liked the Carolina gold sauce the kitchen recommended as an alternative. It's good and has a similar tang, just not for me. The ranch was solid. They have a limited beer and wine selection. We didn't notice they had a bar for mixed drinks until after the fact. The menu says they will offer local wines soon, which I like to see (and prefer to order) at local establishments. Service was excellent. The restaurant is bright and open with a subtle blue nautical theme. Comfortable booths. We'll be back.

    This is one of our favorites for fish dinners on Friday. I love that, if you order the fish fry,…read more$1.00 of that price goes to the Olcott Fire Company. They recently changed their menu and now offer one of my favorites: Chicken Cordon bleu. Loved it the first time I ordered it and so far, haven't disappointed. Their clam chowder is delicious and you know it is clams...you can find them in their cup...not like some other places I go where you aren't sure it really is clam chowder. Service is friendly and if you go there enough, the servers know what you like to drink and are ready for you when you get in. Loved their bourbon bacon burger too. It is a casual place and children are welcomed and it is handicapped accessible. Lovely little entry way, too.
