The highlight of the restaurant seems to be the wings, as noted by the large thermometer graphic that indicates sauce spice levels. I went for the spicy BBQ, which was rated fairly high on the scale, but surprisingly, it wasn’t very spicy at all. Someone else mentioned that the spice levels tend to be milder here, so I wasn’t very shocked. Nevertheless, they were tasty! I’m curious about how the spicier options taste, especially since the spicy BBQ was quite mild.
I also ordered Pfred's Preferred Pfries—cheese fries topped with bacon—and they were fantastic! Thick and quite filling, I shared them with my friend, and we had a hard time finishing the dish. She had a pulled meat sandwich, whic...
I have yet another sports bar slash restaurant that I either like or hate based on my mood at the time. I like that Winking Lizard has a big menu. The food on that menu can be pretty good. It also has some good service when it's not busy. This only will become worse when a big game is on. I think they need to focus more on its service at the bar. It's good enough with the food. The bartender likes to chat with regulars too much. He seems to forget he's being paid to work. The drinks are okay but overpriced. It has some good local beers, but these can be found cheaper at dive bars up the street. A more interesting selection is the Leinenkugel Cranberry Ginger Shandy. The food is pretty good f...
Solid after work or weekend watering hole. Outside covered bar, outside uncovered patio, and inside bar/restaurant area gives you a lot of choices for where to eat drink. Smallish parking lot creates challenges if its full. Not much on street parking, but the abandoned Giant Eagle supermarket diagonally across the street has a huge lot if you don't mind the crosswalk. Very large menu for a bar food place. My buddy swears by the wings. I like the burgers. Personal opinion, avoid the pizzas. Great happy hour specials and weekend beer options that include giant cups of beer at reasonable prices. Free popcorn in a machine by the door. This place is a chain, but the staff that we have had have be...
For $19.78 and in 20 minutes I got a pound of nice moderately crispy dripping in grease onion rings (just how you should eat em! with two sides of ranch (they have the good ranch- you all know what I mean . This also included three grilled barbecue chicken breasts (the meal and two sides. I shouldn 't have ordered the breasts charred- they did come charred but more dry than I 'd have liked. Again this was my error not theirs. It came with a nubbin of nicely garlicky cheesy toasted bread which was nice and soft. The Mac n cheese was pretty genuinely cheesy tasting and not an otherworldly neon yellow. The corn salsa side was less of the Texas caviar or corn-dominant salsa I was expecting and w...

Stoped in on a Wednesday for a group happy hour. Pretty quiet inside but parking lot was full...maybe just our seating area which was not next to bar/tvs. Specials included $1 off drafts, but were out of 3 Oktoberfest beers on draft. Settled on a Jackie O's Mystic Mama draft, solid per usual. Decided to grab a bite and split a 4 slider entee with another attendee, bonus french fry side can be upgraded to TOTS! It was plenty of food, in fact, glad I shared. Good service and my check was $12 after they split the check with my friend. Indeed a happy hour had by all! Will be back if in the area. Nice neighborhood sports bar.
I usually have a great time at this restaurant, but my recent visit was a bit disappointing. They were out of three beers we tried to order, and we weren't informed until after we placed our order, which was frustrating. Based on my previous experiences, I would rate it four stars overall. The prices are typically good, and it's a fun spot to watch games—especially in the summer when you can enjoy outdoor seating and a fire pit. However, this was the second time I've encountered very rude servers here, and we found that they were out of most of the beers we wanted. I'm not sure what's going on with this place.
Great place for bar food to watch the game! I ordered the Wild West Burger upgraded to the Pfred's Preferred Fries. They were covered in multiple cheeses bacon. Definitely comfort food. However, I way over estimated my abilities to eat it. They give decent sized portions my stomach definitely felt the amount of grease I was eating. Waitress was also very attending wonderful about us staying for the whole football game. They amazingly had coffee too even though it wasn't on the menu.
Was so excited when they started opening winking lizard's in the Columbus area. Being a native Clevelander, the winking lizard is a going out staple. The menu ranges from food, spirits, desserts they even have a root beer float on the menu! They also have specials that they add to the menu, such as a clambake in early fall. Highly recommend checking it out be sure to check out the patio fire pit. Oh, and they have a ton of TVs to watch the game/race/whatever on :

Best patio in Grandview. There are some close competitors but between the space, TVs, and prime people watching location this takes home the W. Great beer selection, as is standard for all Lizard locations. Great place for larger groups. The menu is large and can cater to a variety of different urges.
Winking offers an impressive selection for beer enthusiasts. It's a shame to see this place leave Grandview Ave.
