One thing that's been missing from Watertown's diverse array of food establishments has been a good old fashioned wings place. Until now. Enter East Side Wings & Grille. The wings are jumbo, fresh and come available in 26 different flavors. You've got 6 or 7 Buffalo sauces to choose from, but if you're like me you like a little sweet with the bite. They aim to please! From the unusual Mango Habanero to the Spicy Tera-dactyl sauces, do yourself a favor. Order the wings ""dry"" and try 3 or 4 flavors in one sitting.
If you're not a fan of wings on the bone, they prepare their own chicken tenders, hand cut breasts of chicken, floured and deep fried. I'm very anal when it comes to being able to see what goes on in the kitchen of my fast food eatery. You get to see what's going on in the kitchen as the cooks prepare their respective fares. Not in the mood for chicken? They have a great variety of burgers starting with the American classic burger - a ""half pound patty of pure American grown Angus beef"". They've got several cheeses to pick from and some of their own creations which are worthy of your exploration.
If you want to try something really good, try their Keufteh burger. They say it's a Mediterranean style meat loaf patty. It's better than that. It's old world Keufteh with an American spin. You won't find a burger like this at one of those greasy burger joints. Every burger comes with a nice portion of hand cut fries, too.
From chicken wings to burgers to falafel wraps, there's something for everybody at East Side Wings -- even the most health conscious! Have a hard to please kid? This is one wings joint with a kids menu. Macaroni & cheese, hot dogs, even PB & J! This isn't just fast food, it's GREAT food. If they continue to serve the kind of food we've experienced in their first couple of weeks in business, there's no doubt in my mind that East Side Wings will be a part of this community for a long time!
Pros: big wings, great selection, AND falafel!
Cons: No eat in and no hot coffee
