Was Anonym at Winking Lizard Tavern a mag?
I recently visited Sport in Independence and was impressed by the two large bars and the great service. It's a perfect spot for a happy hour with colleagues. My only suggestion would be to have more options on the menu that cater to low-carb diets, but the buffalo chicken salad with homemade dressing was delicious and satisfying. View all feedback.
What Anonym dislikes about Winking Lizard Tavern:
This restaurant has a lot of questionable individuals working there, most of whom will help themselves to your food. The kitchen staff appear to be unhygienic as well. Be prepared to find items in your meal that you didn't order. View all feedback.
Very disorganized hostessing. A 50 minute wait with 8 tables open and still got pushed back another 15 min while others got seated who arrived after us. Some persistent complaining and discussion got us seated around 34 min into it, but waited 45 min for our order to come out. The food and drinks were too mediocre for that kind of wait.

I've been coming here since the 1990's. The Lizard has been the most consistent bar/family restaurant in northeast Ohio for the last 35 years. It's a mainstay, it's a standard and you can count on it. Tons of great beers from all over the world, lots of different drafts, there's something for everyone. I recommend the Bo-mans bacon cheeseburger with the preferred fries and their bbq sauce. Lots of TV's, great place to watch a game or have a party. Good to go solo for lunch and a beer, like I said there's something for everyone.
We wanted a sports bar in Independence, and sure enough, there were 6 screens in the long, narrow, back bar alone. Not too conducive to deep conversation, but we chose a sports bar, so I didn’t really expect it. Food was good, definitely above decent! Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner
