I can't let my Epic Wings sit at a 3.5-stars. That's pretty insane to me. This is another one of…read moremy favorite spots. I'll be honest I haven't been here in a while, but I stopped the other day and remembered what good well sauced tenders taste like. The chicken quality is much better than the main fast casual chicken competitors (wing stop, Cane's, etc.). And the tenders aren't just dripping in sauce, but sitting in a whole pool of it. That extra sauce is important when it you need to dip your breadsticks, which by the way is perfectly soft inside and extra crispy, buttery, and salted on the outside. i got a combo #1 which comes with 3 chicken tenders with your choice of sauce, 2 bread sticks, carrots/celery, and a drink. I got Thai Chili sauce, my favorite. I have to come around more and remember which of the other ones I like. Service is always great, simple, and quick. And this location has a small seating area inside and outside, but it's never too busy. I necessary, there is plenty outdoor seating at Riverside Plaza. Overall I highly recommend Epic Wings for some good sauced up chicken tenders and breadsticks!

Followed the cashier's recommendation to do the Combo #2 I believe? Which was amazing, I should say. The fries and the chicken and honey bbq mixed together was amazing (epic!). So much that my friend who was an international student, said that the chicken here tastes fresh and real. I think that's a one of a kind compliment She was also grateful that the cashier let her take a cup after she changed her mind. She initially didnt want a drink that came with the combo, but then decided shes thirsty. Nice service

The bar side is to the left when you walk in and restaurant side is on the right. The menu isn't big and everything seems like it's crafted in a specific way. We've done dessert here and appetizers. The pistachio cream pie was amazing and the crust to pie ratio was my favorite. The dirty fries with cheese sauce and fresh herbs are absolutely divine. Service here is really good, I find them to be friendly and helpful if you ask any menu questions. The downside to here is the price. A lot of the cocktails average 16 dollars so when you are paying almost 20 dollars for a small drink and expensive food, it adds up quick.

Pizza Guys always hits the spot. I've ordered from them multiple times now and they never disappoint. The crust is that perfect balance of crispy and chewy, the sauce has a nice tang without being overpowering, and they do not skimp on the cheese or toppings. I usually go for the classic pepperoni or the combo, and both are packed with flavor and always come out hot and fresh. Plus, their deals make it really affordable, especially if you're feeding a group. Customer service is friendly, and pickup is super fast--my order is usually ready in 15-20 minutes. Definitely recommend if you're looking for good pizza without the long wait or fancy prices. read more

Ok so im back, the pizza was delicious, we are pizza eaters so we are always on the hunt for a good spot to eat, will i go back to eat, probably not, we are from out of town, we needed a place to sit, and this is like a Dominos pizza, you go in to a counter to order then take home, if it wasn't for that then absolutely we would come back, if your like us we love to have wings with our pizza be prepared to buy extra sauce, the wings were delicious but dry.

I wouldn't say it's the best pizza in the I.E. The pizza was thin which I ordered, however, there wasn't muck cheese on the crust. The order was a large pepperoni and Canadian bacon. For twenty dollars it was ok but I've had better. You get more cheese on a little Cesar's pizza for five dollars That is why Mom and Pops family owned pizza is better than chain pizza. They are not afraid of adding more toppings to safe a. Few dollars. read more

PizzaSalad offers a unique twist on traditional Italian cuisine. The flavors are vibrant, and the combinations are surprisingly delightful! The crust is perfectly crispy--with just the right amount of crunch. I especially loved the fresh toppings! The only downside was the wait time, which was a bit longer than expected.

I got fettuccine alfredo with broccoli, my wife got the mushroom artichoke fettuccine with their marinara. One of us got the italian bread and the other the garlic, so we could try both.

Can't say it was an unforgettable-tasting meal, but was at least as good as other restaurants nearby. Our waitress said she was relatively new, but she was very attentive and we never felt like it was hard to get her help or attention. Wish I had gotten her name to pay her a more formal compliment. It also happened to be one of their spaghetti special days, and $9.99 spaghetti with salad and bread is a great value. When we do come back it'll definitely be on another special day. Can't think of another Italian place nearby with the same portions for that price. My one and only complaint- I felt like the music was a HUGE missed opportunity. We went seeking cozy, and the old style booths provided a bit of that, but they were playing current country music hits the whole time. Would have totally completed the package and checked every box had they played something a little more on-theme. Nothing wrong with country music, but in a small, cozy italian restaurant, it would've been so much more immersive to play something Italian, or at least classical. Don't skip the good food and prices because of that, but hopefully a helpful suggestion to make the place just a little bit cooler!
