Review of Twohey's Restaurant

Recently moved nearby and had seen the food truck ...

Recently moved nearby and had seen the food truck on Localish, so we wanted to give the brick-and-mortar Twoheys a try. We started with cocktails and buffalo chicken wings. The cocktails were decent, though the whiskey list is a bit limited. The wings were excellent--perfectly fried, and I'm not sure if they're making their own buffalo sauce or if it's bottled, but I really liked it. Not crazy hot, but had a kick with some excellent flavors to go along with that--not your average buffalo sauce. Then for mains we ordered the everything burger, and the fried chicken plate. I added a bowl of the cheesy potato soup to my fried chicken, and I was really glad I did--super creamy and delicious soup, this was one of my favorite items. The burger was very flavorful with plenty of veggies. The fried chicken I'd say was good, not great. Again, perfectly fried, with super crispy skin and the meat inside still moist but definitely fully cooked. But the breading on the chicken was a bit bland, definitely lacking salt and in my opinion a little heat. The mashed potatoes were just OK--a little bit clumpy/paste-like. The spinach was AW-FUL. Like, zero flavor. Where is the salt at y'all???

Overall I'd say our experience at Twoheys was about the same as how we felt about the fried chicken plate: good, but not great. Especially when you consider the prices--I didn't feel like I got a great value for what I paid, the prices seem a little high for the flavor/quality you end up getting, but we do intend to come back and try other menu items--maybe we didn't order one of their "home run" dishes!
