Boomerang's Bar & Grill

We've been to Boomerangs on several occasions now. Their wing night on Wednesdays can't be beat. Their sauces are really good. I actually prefer a lot of their sauces over that big-chain wing place (which I won't name). The wings are really big and only 33 cents. I like that you can get as many of any flavor as your want without an extra charge. My favorite sauces are the jerk and tequila lime.Their sides and burgers are really good, too.

{EDIT} We went to wing night again last night and got onion rings. I can't think of anyplace that has better onion rings. They're not frozen, obviously hand-dipped. They even give you the fried crumblies. Holy moly, they were so good.

Nice staff, nice place. I like going here because it has a neighborhood bar feeling.

Last night's special was $1 sliders... not a typical tiny White Castle slider, these sliders were BEEFY!   We had some fresh cut french fries and fired mushrooms, the mushrooms were great!

everyday they have a special, and it appears they have a new menu with famous Illinoisans assigned to each sandwich.

pitchers of domestic draft beer was $5.

My parents were in town and mom wanted to watch the MSU basketball playoff game.  We needed somewhere close, cheap, unpretentious where my middle-age 'rents wouldn't feel too out of place.

Yay, Boomerangs!  Despite the fact of Friday evening, the place seemed slow.  Might get busy later?   I love the cheap drinks here, and plan on trying food here sometime.  When I'm less terrified of bar burgers due to the Iron Post Food Poisoning Incident.

From the shot list, Pineapple Upside Down Cake kicks serious ass.  I ended up getting three of 'em and sharing round my group.  The bartender here was super friendly and very attentive.
