In Short
Named after a Grateful Dead song, this neighborhood hangout has a bohemian vibe--complete with a mural featuring Jerry Garcia, a small bar and a friendly young staff. The deep-fried chicken wings come with a choice of a dozen sauces, ranging from mild tequila-lime to extra spicy hot sauce. Other menu items include salads and sandwiches, as well as well-priced microbrews. Diners can try the deep-fried Twinkie for a low-brow, decadent finish to their meal.

first off, do not order the 'el jefe' sauce. i eat spicey food quite a lot, but this sauce is just extreme. i think it's mostly a gimick. the wings (wing pieces) are good but not spectacular. the sauces, except el jefe, are all good. the fries are good but somewhat greasy. the pricing is a bit high for wings. when we went last, 6 wings cost about 8 bucks. that's a bit ridiculous, especially considering a wing is really a wing 'piece' - only one part of a wing. seems deceptive. two roasted real wings at my local grocer cost about 1 buck. sure, no ambience at the grocer, but this gives an idea of cost range for FOTM.

I was very disappointed with this joint. The waitress was so rude when we ordered, I thought she was joking - when we asked what kind of beer they had she pointed to a sign and said read-it's right there. The Food - Wings were ok - I have had better - much better. I ordered the Portabello Sandwich and it was bland - like eating cardboard. The only way I would go back would be a free dinner for me and 20 of my closest friends - which won't happen - get the point?

Being vegetarian and having the occasional hot wing craving I usually don't have a place to ease my needs. However, their veg nuggets (Portland style wings) with Hot or Medium sauce was legendary! Each mouthful brought sweat beads and tingling sensation throughout my body. It was divine! The crispy texture of the nuggets and creamy blue cheese dressing was a perfect merriment. My non-veg head husband, had the blue cheese and bacon burger and cleaned his plate in just a few minutes. The sweet potato fries were better than Burgerville (can I say that?!). Sweet and salty friend goodness is always welcomed in my belly. We've gone back one more time since December. Yum.
