Buffalo Wild Wings Mozzarella Sticks

Buffalo Wild Wings' Mozzarella Sticks- 7/10 crowns 

I got these mozzarella sticks as part of the “Endless Apps” deal, in which you pay $10 and order bottomless apps (choose from 5), two platters at a time. My friends and I ordered three times, and got five platters of mozzarella sticks. 

 The breading: The breading was super crunchy and had a nice taste! These were served fresh, which allowed the breadcrumb coating to shine. 

 The cheese: The cheese actually had a nice flavor AND I got several cheese pulls, even when they had been on the table for a few minutes. No complaints here! The sauce: The marinara was a great addition to these mozzarella sticks and I thoroughly enjoyed it, despite it slightly reminding me of Burger King marinara. My friends and I also got the caramel sauce (not pictured) which we normally get with the cheese curds to see if the sauce is a “one hit wonder”. It definitely isn’t!!! We got two cups of caramel sauce and it only enhanced the mozzarella sticks and the fries we also ordered. My only complaint is that you cannot order the caramel sauce on To Go orders. 

 Overall, the bottomless apps deal is what makes these worth it. Normally, $10 for six mozzarella sticks is not worth the money. With the bottomless deal, my friends and I determined we got 30 mozzarella sticks for .28 cents. That’s better than Applebee’s .50 cent mozzarella deal last summer! I will say that you are not *supposed* to take any leftover apps home, which is wasteful, but… Anyway, I can get behind these!

Texas Roadhouse Twisted Mozzarella

 Texas Roadhouse Twisted Mozzarella- 6/10 crowns   I am once again telling you I'm sure of what you're  thinking. Mozzarella sticks... Texas Roadhouse? And, sure, you would be right, this is certainly an odd combination. I come here for the onion flower, not mozzarella sticks. I think cheddar, not mozzarella. But you know what? These were actually decent. Worth the try, if you will. The breading: Jumping right into things, these were obviously frozen. Like, there's not going to be a sad employee in the kitchen breading twisted mozzarella cheese sticks with the bread crumbs. No. But it seemed to have a distinctive breading look instead of the fried coating which we are familiar with. Good start. ***Also! The picture on the website shows a twisted mozzarella stick shape. I have never seen that before, and still did not see them when i got my order, so that was misleading. But it's still cool to look at, so you should check that out.  The cheese: Yeah this was your stan...

Chili's Fried Mozzarella

 Chili's Fried Mozzarella- 2/10 crowns Anyone who knows me knows I am a Chili's enthusiast, but I cannot stand by this decision. Chili's removing the cheese bites from the menu is absolutely heinous and when I discovered that (unfortunately it ruined some of the glamour of Barbz Day) I literally think I may have hyperventilated in the restaurant. Anyway, this post is about the mozzarella sticks as their own entity, not in relation to the cheese bites. In that case, they would get a 0/10 rating.  The breading: Easily the best part of this experience. I thought the flavor was good enough and was crispy, even when I ordered them to-go for my second trial.  The cheese: This is definitely where Chili's loses me. For a Tex-Mex restaurant I don't think these match the theme at all. Even mozzarella sticks themselves are questionable. But these are thick pieces of fried mozzarella. Mostly cheese, I found myself unable to finish an order by myself both times because of the c...

IHOP's Mozzarella Sticks

IHOP's Mozzarella Sticks- 7/10 crowns These are literally the *same* exact mozzarella sticks as Applebee's. I should just redirect you to that review. Speaking of  which ... Also, does that mean that IHOP is breakfast Applebee's?? The breading: Ok, girl, is there really much to say? Real bread crumbs. Good. The only thing about these breadcrumbs that isn't really my favorite is the cheese to breadcrumb ratio. There's no problem with having a lot of cheese, but my lactose a** would like more breadcrumbs to balance out the outrageous amount of dairy. The cheese: Anyway, so, the cheese always slaps. Even though my friend and I ordered takeout from the restaurant and ate them about twenty minutes after we picked them up, the cheese pull was still present. The other brands need to take note.  The sauce: It's Applebee's sauce. It's not bad. It's actually pretty good. But we all know that the sauce seems like it's made to give you st...
