They have a full bar, but a beer menu that’s… meh.
The wings are great, as are the dumplings. Oh, also the Parmesan fries. My biggest complaint is that I got too many fries to eat.

Nice.
I was there last week but didn’t try much. Glad it has good food. Needs to, given its footprint.

This economy is rough. 5 Guys is now a $25 meal if I want a burger, fries, and a shake.
The only difference is I know how 5 Guys makes me feel. The itis 🤤. I hope this new spots food is also good.

Well, it’s named “mad for chicken” …
But the truffle fries are really good, and the dumplings were spinach and cheese. I don’t know when their full menu will be available.

And the website prominently features vegan chicken options.

If they intend to open a restaurant of such a large size, in such a prominent location (aka high rent), maybe they should think a little longer about the market theyre serving. You simply cannot have zero (0) vegetarian entress.
If a party of 6 wants to get dinner before an event at the Pru, and just one of them is vegetarian...the entire party will have to go elsewhere.

I’m more shocked by the 3.00 coleslaw. How is coleslaw not free when you’re paying $16 bucks for 10 wings?!?

I guess they all run the many failed restaurants in newark lol.
Didnt realize "its hard to success in the food business, dont immediate scare customers away" is such a scary message for this crowd
Ive seen like 6 100% meat soul food restaurants open and close downtown in the last 3 years.

It’s a soft open menu. This is on par with that sorta thing.

Lemme fix that - Was at the Dino bbq spot. Hell bbq had problems attracting people with no vivid and full office buildings - as full pre Covid that is.

The full menu goes live tomorrow, including veggie nuggets as well as a number of salads.
