On a recent, almost visit, to this establishment for wings, we were told that because our 16 yr old daughter was there, we couldn't sit in a booth located in the section with a/c. We were instructed that we could sit at the booth at the front plate glass window, across from the pizza ovens. In the 90+ degree heat, across from from the pizza ovens, eating hot wings didn't really seem like a good option. We have been here many times and were very surprised to learn that this has been the law for about 4 yrs! Things may have changed, but not 4 yrs ago as I have only been attending AA for about 2 yrs. I have to wonder if things were overlooked when I was spending large amounts of $ on alcohol. There are other places to get wings.
