Sauced Texas Kitchen

After doing some Christmas shopping in Allen, Texas, I decided to look for a place in the area to grab a late lunch.  Going from store to store to find that perfect gift for the wife can work up an appetite.  I was in the area of Bethany Drive, so I pulled into the parking lot of Sauced Texas Kitchen.  I really didn't know much about this place, but I had driven by it on several occasions and thought I would give it a try.

Since it was a Saturday afternoon, I was please to see that it was a sports bar and had several television tuned to college football.  I started with an order of boneless wings "sauced" in Caribbean Jerk and an order of bacon cheese fries.  The wings and cheese fries arrived very quickly and I dug into my appetizers.  The boneless wings were not impressive at all.  They had the look and texture of chicken nuggets, while the sauce was very thin and didn't have much of the traditional flavor of Caribbean Jerk.  The cheese fries were a little better, but not much.  While they had plenty of cheese, they were lacking in the bacon department and I had to look very hard to find any underneath the cheese.

For my main meal, I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with onion rings.  When my order arrived, it looked like a million bucks.  My mom always said that looks can be deceiving and this was certainly the case here.  The burger itself was very dry, tasteless, and looked to be cooked from a pre-formed frozen patty.  The onions rings had an excellent looking batter with good flavor, but the onion rings themselves were very tough and chewy.

While I was there, very few customers were dining at Sauced Texas Kitchen and now I know why.  The food was some of the most disappointing I have had in quite some time.  The service was decent, but it did not make up for the horrible food that was  pricey for the quality that I received.  This place will most certainly not be added to my lists of quality restaurants in Allen.  I should have stayed and grabbed a bite to eat while I was shopping at Watters Creek, because I know they have several quality restaurants to choose from.
