Quaker Steak and Lube

We almost never eat at chain restaurants. We prefer mom-and-pop or at least locally-owned places. That being said, we've wanted to eat at a Quaker Steak and Lube for some time because we love wings, and they have such a long list of wing sauces.


We were on our way back from a day at the Ohio Renaissance Festival. We worked up quiet an appetite at the festival despite having quite a bit of food while we were there. So, we stopped at a Quaker Steak and Lube on the northwest side of Cincinnati.

QS & L is decorated in an racing theme. They have cars, motorcycles, garage items hanging everywhere. There's plenty to look at it. The menu follows the same theme.

Anita ordered the boneless wings with BBQ sauce, which she liked. I got the Wings & O-Rings, which is 10 wings (in Louisiana Lickers sauce) and some onion rings. I really liked the sauce on my wings, and the rings were very good. We both enjoyed our meals and service was decent.

Would we go back? Probably, just to try more of their wing sauce flavors, which are listed below. QS & L isn't cheap, but I thought the wings were much better than the ones from Buffalo Wild Wings.
