Kudos to a great staff! Some of the best service I’ve experienced in a long time. I have forgotten our waitresses name but I know she also works at a salon - she was AMAZING!
I wasn’t to fond of my dish the catfish. It was very very fishy but the breading of it was cooked perfectly. Also not too fond of the chips. I was told the burger and bbq were delicious. I would like to try the pizza the next visit. It seems to be all the raze. I liked that they do karaoke - however, the volume can be turned down a very good amount you cannot hear the person next to you talking.

Good food, a ton of it. Fair prices. The wedge salad was good and filling, the pulled pork sandwich was huge, and the fried pickles were a great appetizer. Staff was friendly. Food came out at a reasonable time. Place seemed clean.

My burger was SO good. Absolutely fantastic. Cooked perfectly. I had the Peter Piper and the amount of jalapeños on this was 🙌🏻. My boyfriend had the Peperoni pizza which was also amazing. The sauce, cheese and Peperoni were spot on.
Maybe it was just today but the bar tender was super busy because she was flying solo and had to do her normal bartending duties as well as serve tables. Even still we really didn’t have to wait for anything.
I liked that I could pay for my bill through TOAST.

Chicken was little on dry side had the hot not real to hot vinegar forward sauce. 1st pizza was really burt on bottom they server had new one made that's what gives this 2 star's. The 2nd pizza must have been put in same spot less burnt but still burnt. Pizza very sauce forward with strong oregano flavor.

Upon recommendation from our neighbor, we tried the pizza. I already loved their burgers and my partner loves their wings but this pizza is UNBELIEVABLE!! We got The Mountain Man Large pizza...should have gotten a smaller size as we took home over half. It reheated very well the next day. Also, not to overlook the Chips and Beer cheese!!

So good, we stopped in again the next day!
The smoked wings are amazing and anything with the pulled pork is killer!
Both visits were top notch!

(My opinion of course--)The restaurant is very nice, clean, easily accessible, and employs a cordial staff. We dined in on Monday night, the same night as Trivia. (**Stay away from the speakers!**) We ordered a variety of dishes, but started with the fried mushrooms. They were delicious and I would highly recommend them. (The accompanying dipping sauce would be a second choice as I would recommend ranch.) We ordered the Boston Butt on toasted bread, sweet potato fries, salad, and mixed veges. Add in chicken wings too. The Boston Butt unanimously wasn't great, and the sweet potato fries were sugar coated, which didn't enhance the flavoring, and tasted more 'funnel cake-like'. (Drinking with a Coke isn't advised.;-) ) We each sampled the butt, at our 6 top, to insure a fair assesment.
The wings were fine and our guests enjoyed them. The salad was crisp and fresh and nicely sized.
The menu overall looked restaurant standard, but super easy to order from, and not overtly complicated.
We may return at a later date to try the Wild Boar again, but not for a while. Again this was our experience and an attempt to critique fairly. Thanks for reading.
