I needed to stay in the Germantown / Menomonee Falls area around dinner time and specifically wanted to stop somewhere with cheese curds as it was National Cheese Curd Day. Water Street Pub & Grill had both cheese curds and some daily specials I was interested in, so that ended up being my choice. In addition to cheese curds I got eight wings and a quesadilla.The cheese curds ended up being the cornmeal breaded kind that I don't care for. They were greasy and weren't very crunchy. Wings are $0.99 each on Tuesdays (as of 10/15/2024). They aren't listed on their normal menu, so I had to ask what the sauce/rub choices they had. There weren't any rub options, but for sauces there was mild, hot, bourbon BBQ, teriyaki, and garlic parmesan. I went with bourbon BBQ. The bourbon BBQ sauce was strong, which is great if you like the taste of bourbon, and the wings were well sized. The wings were fried, but not breaded, which feels like a crucial step if you're going to fry wings. If you're not going to bread them, it would be nice if they were grilled instead.Quesadillas are 20% off on Tuesdays (again as of 10/15/2024). I ordered one with corned beef inside, but it arrived to my table with beef brisket inside instead. I didn't feel like mentioning the mistake since beef brisket is good too, so I rolled with it. The quesadilla was the clear winner of the food options I tried with good flavor and a good amount of brisket in it. If I come back, I'd consider getting the quesadilla again.
