"During both of our visits, we had the pleasure of being served by the wonderful waitress Sandy, who truly impressed us! She remembered us from our first visit and even inquired if we wanted to order the same appetizers. Her memory is quite remarkable! On our first visit, I was dealing with a particularly stressful day, and I was grateful for the quiet bar atmosphere. Sandy was a bright spot during a tough time, especially since we had just come from my grandmother's funeral and I really needed a drink. Normally, I don't drink much, but I had a screenshot of a mixed drink I liked. Sandy was incredibly accommodating when I showed her my phone, saying, "No problem, that's almost like a Tom Collins. Coming right up!" My wife ordered a Bloody Mary. Since we weren't very hungry, we decided on two appetizers. I must say, if you haven't tried the chips with crawfish queso and the wings, you are truly missing out! I wish I could remember their exact names from the menu, but they are easy to find. That queso is simply fantastic!
Now, about those wings. I often smoke chicken wings at home, so I consider myself a bit of a connoisseur, which means I can be quite particular about them. Here, the wings are smoked and then given a quick fry for extra crispiness, finished with a sprinkle of Alumni seasoning. Normally, I don’t prefer adding seasoning to meat after it’s cooked, but I’ll make an exception for these wings—they are just delicious!
On our second visit, we ordered the crawfish queso again, this time bringing a friend for lunch. She had the shrimp pasta, which came with a nicely sized salad. My wife and I opted for the basic cheeseburger since we knew we wouldn’t be able to finish a double patty. I chose a brioche bun while my wife selected sourdough. That brioche bun was impressive! I have to ask, why haven’t I had burgers on brioche buns more often? It was so soft and flavorful! The burger itself was made from fresh patties, not frozen, giving it that lovely homemade taste. The only thing I would change is that even though I had cheese on my burger, it seemed to have melted off, probably onto the grill. It comes with American cheese, but I requested cheddar, so I definitely needed more. While the pickles were tasty, I asked for extra, but they were so thin that even with the extras, I could barely taste them. I usually require three essentials on my burgers (besides lettuce and raw onions): mayo, cheddar cheese, and lots of pickles. I'll just modify my order next time to make sure I get everything I want.
This minor issue wouldn’t stop me from returning. The Booster Club also hosts local bands regularly in the evenings and offers a daily lunch special. You can call ahead to reserve a table if you have a specific spot in mind for when the bands are playing. We genuinely enjoy dining here and will definitely be back—hopefully, with Sandy as our waitress again!"
