Karen Kelly - March 16, 2015

Read the other online reviews and rating of 4.8 out of 5, so wanted to try this restaurant while passing through. Terrible experience and not sure where the 4.8 came from. We got there around 12:30 pm and the place was busy but not packed with numerous open tables. Seated ourselves per the sign at the door. Waited for our server, she took our drink order and waited long enough for our drinks to arrive that we knew what we wanted to order. Got the loaded tater tots for an appetizer, 2 bacon cheeseburgers and a breaded tenderloin with onion rings. We then had to wait 30 minutes (!) for the app to come out. To it's credit it was hot and tasty. We then waited ANOTHER 15+ minutes for our meal. When it arrived... cold. Burgers cold, fries cold, onion rings stone cold. My family said the burgers were tasty and "would have been good if they were hot". I urged them to send the cold burgers back, but we had already been in the place so long, we hated to waste even more time waiting for HOT food. We wasted 90 minutes in the place trying to eat a meal and it came cold and with a $41 bill. Either we had the slowest, inept server on the planet or the kitchen and cooking staff was too small for the seating area (which is what my husband thinks). Terrible, terrible meal. When asked how our meal was by the server, we said cold and were given a bowl of onion rings (hot this time) as an apology, but by this time, I just wanted to leave. It was one meal out of my life, so I'm going to get over it, but we won't in all likelihood be back. Wonder if the reviews on here were written by family/friends because they did not in any way reflect our experience. The only reason I gave 1 star was that the "flavor" of the meal was good even if the temperature was no where near where safely handled food should be.

Most of the people were worried this place would close when Buffalo Wild Wings moved in - it's a good thing it didn't and Boonies gets packed every weekend while BWW's doesn't - lol. Awesome sauces (even the Mayo is amazing, how is that possible?) and awesome wings. 5 Alarm Burger is a personal favorite.
