Patrick Haney: Fantastic wings in all sorts of flavors. Avoid the Buffalo (greasy) and the habenero (too hot), but the Dirty Blue and the 3 Pete BBQ are amazing.
Christopher Wells: Some of the best spicy garlic wings I've had.
Josh Nolan: Possibly the best wings on the planet. Get the dirty blue and if you like spicy get the Diablo. The Diablo has the best flavor to hotness balance.

Austin P: The wings are a sleeper! Smoked and crispy, excellent choice as an app or an easy meal for one!
Nathalie Elyse: Wings are amazing. Good quality and great flavor.
Kate McCormley: House salad, add smoked chicken, and add a little bit of the BBQ sauce instead of the dressing. Soooo good. One of the best salads I’ve ever had.

Andrea L: Pizza, wings, salad, beer and service were fantastic. Don't let the strip mall location fool you!
Lorenzo Taylor: The comber combo was fantastic. Crispy soft crust with well thought out toppings. Flavor of box wings was on point. Wings were perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Will return!
