Co-owners, Troy Beck and Brian Hess alongside Executive Chef Katie Peric, opened Nothingman on Mount Washington to be a true neighborhood restaurant. He previously owned Given to Fly, a chicken concept in Federal Galley and knows exactly how to cook up juicy, flavorful bites. Their wings are $15 for 10 wings and the sauces/rubs offer classic flavors and unique twists. The truffalo fries and truffalo chicken sandwich (with a truffle oil-infused buffalo sauce) are my fave. They also have an awesome indoor/outdoor space perfect for chill vibes with friends or a date night. If you can bring a friend or two, you can each order different items and share them all.
