Friends and I have a standing Wednesday evening Booty Call.  Now, for those of you with your mind in the gutter, the proprietor of this establishment is Andy Libutti  (lib-oo’-tee), capisce?

Wednesday?  That’s Wing night!! Booty’s wings have won 9 National Buffalo Wing competitions since 2013!  A 5-piece wing order with any of over 40  preparations is $6.69 (complete with carrot, celery & dip),  but on Wednesday they are only 70 cents each.  Order boneless or bone-in (“drums” & “flats”) to start, then a side order selection of: regular or sweet potato fries, onion rings (with a whisper of cayenne), fried pickles, fresh kettle chips or the iconic tater tots (order them extra crispy).  Their delightful, attentive, personable servers will gleefully comply. 

Everything is made fresh to order and it’s all made from scratch.

Once I got past my faves of chili-lime rubbed wings and extra crispy tots, I noticed the rest of their menu and tried a burger.  It was big (1/2 pound), juicy, and beefy ($9.49 with kettle chips or other side). They also serve fresh salads, wraps, sandwiches, sliders, appetizers (don’t miss the pretzel bites $7.49) and even a kid’s menu.

Daily specials and Happy Hours abound with big portions and reduced prices.  Fun, too (50 wings to share, anyone?)

Being a “Sports Bar”, it’s more than the title implies.  They have a huge selection of beers (including their own Booty’s Brew) in addition to the full bar.  Big screen TV’s line the walls with every imaginable sports events and occasionally the news!  Now, if you’re looking for white tablecloths and candles, move along.  But if you are looking for good, scratch-cooked food at great prices and service, a place to kick back either inside or on the patio, you’ll find me at Booty’s waiting for a local entertainer to begin on Wednesday nights.
