The advertising of different products (Frank's, Renee's, Diana's, ect.) turned me off right away.


In my book, that's the worst thing any restaurant can do...Golden Griddle does it, which is fitting given the quality of their food. If I see it in any other menu, IMHO it brings it down to Golden Griddle territory.

I feel like I should give this place the benefit of the doubt, but so far it doesn't look promising. Frozen food? Bottled sauces? Coors? Hmmm...

If your "claim to fame" as it were is your 101 sauces, why would you tell people what brands of sauce you use and/or mix together?

It's like an invitation to make your own sauces, and do it at home. lol

For the same reason that despite being super easy, but just needing patience and time, people would rather spend 2-4 dollars for a loaf of bread instead of making their own.

Gasp......Can wings even be eaten without a beer ????


Only when your pregnant...

Nothing like wing night, I'm glad they have opened a wing place, I miss the late nights with my husband, just drinking beer and eating wings. Time for the good old days...

Went yesterday for first time. Place is nice. Customers and staff nice too. It was very busy. We ordered take out. I asked for buffalo style wings. One set medium, one set mild.
When we returned around 7PM the place was busy. Take out corner was terribly busy. Guys after us took off after while. Well, it was nothing wrong with it. The place was nice and busy. While we were waiting I realized their bar tender is very nice. My wings went up (don’t mentioned to my wife, please :oops: ).
At home we realized they gave us hot and medium (not the same we were asking for) and wings weren’t Buffalo style. They were JFC style which we don’t like at all. If fast, wings taste was awful. Worst wings from restaurant I ever have. On top of it two slices of carrots, two slices of celery and two micro pucks of unrecognizable souse. No napkins at all.
So, if next time for take out wings we will go back and only to Wings Up. Their wings are very close to original Buffalo wings from Anchor Bar in Buffalo. But place itself is kind of crap.
And for beer and some greasy food (but no wings) we would go to WW again. Not because of the bar tender, of course, hot, oops :oops: , exuse ma Englith, it was not.

Ate there last week with a friend, my wife and 8 month old. While a little pricey the 3 lbs of wings we shared with 3 sauces were all large, good and tasty. Service was friendly and quick enough.

Fries were ok (nothing special.. just Mccain fries)

We'll still be going back. The three of us with a couple drinks (including 2 beers) ended up at $60 which is average for some good wings.

We have always enjoyed Wild Wings:
I love the Hot and Honey and my fiancé always gets the Farmer's Daughters. After trying the buffalo style wings we will never go back to the original. And it isn't a wing night unless we get the gar-par fries- and I wouldn't order naked fries- it's the gar-par that makes them.

Gar par onion rings? Throw out your calorie counter ladies cuz you won't enjoy them otherwise!

We're huge wing lovers, I always look for the right zing between hot (need a beer badly) and zesty (good BBQ sauce, etc).
They got it perfect with their Dirty Nelly sauce...mmm mmm mmm good!

A little pricey but you can't beat the 3 min. drive.
