Catching the Wave at Wipeout!

When you step through the doors of Wipeout Bar & Grill, you are immediately hit with the recognizable sights and sounds of a coastal summer. Surfboards, beach signs and other classic kitsch adorn the walls, not to mention the expansive set of projection TV's dotting the restaurant's interior. Merging the old with the new, the bygone era of the Beach Boys with today's technological marvels, Wipeout Bar & Grill goes above and beyond the typical dining experience.

The attentive waiters are no stranger to small talk, and despite the size of the place, they are quick to take your order and serve your food.  And speaking of the food, the Wipeout serves up plates of classic Americana fused with a culinary twist. The specials are most certainly that – special. Seared ahi tuna with fresh vegetables and tangy sauce wrapped in a flour tortilla, Chipotle chicken Penne pasta, and my favorite classic fare – the cheeseburger served with the Californian staple known as avocado, are just  some of the great items on their menu. And even if you just settle for the nostalgic burger and fries, you won't be disappointed.

However, the onslaught of surfing videos and NASCAR racing can be tiresome, if you prefer to eat in sensory silence. Then again, this is not the place for cantankerous geriatrics. Wipeout Bar & Grill was created for the purpose of entertaining the young, as well as the young-at-heart. If you plan your next meal at the Wipeout, you are bound to have a great experience. Just remember that, unlike the boardwalk food stands, no shirt and no shoes means no service. Surf's up!

Introducing Nick's Picks!

Nick Gould is a twenty-something college student, which means he can really put it away.  But more importantly, he knows a good meal when he eats one.  Nick began his gourmand adventure when he was a young lad, actually developing a taste for sushi at an age when other kids were screaming for Spaghetti-O's.  Since then, he's sampled cuisines ranging from Afghani to Ethiopian, and foods like alligator gumbo and abalone steaks.   He will try just about anything, and he pretty much likes everything, except blue cheese.

Nick will try out new places and re-visit some old ones, and he'll bring us the scoop as Nick's Picks, here in MoreEats.  Check it out, and bon appetit, everyone!
