wild wing cafe

i went to wild wings mainly out of curiosity about their advertised 30+ different sauce varieties and must admit i was somewhat skeptical.  what i discovered was a spacious eatery with eclectic decor and an attentive staff waiting to serve those absolutely scrumptious all i could eat wings.  each different flavor combination tasted just as described on the menu without overpowering the fried to perfection wing taste.  
their heat index goes from 1-6 chilies and i unfortunately had to draw the line at 4 because of digestive system burnout from too many years of "suicide" wings at other establishments.  i wish i had discovered wild wings long ago and plan to be no stranger in the future.

great wing buffet!. went to the all-you-can eat wing bar today, it was great! got to pick from six different types of wings, the spicy asian wings were the best, and the fries on the bar were to die for! for $8.99 you can't beat all the wings you can eat during lunch. the menu included a very wide variety of food, not just wings, which i was surprised, because most wing places don't offer as many choices. i definitely be back with my family.

a place for a get together. this is a staple when visiting hampton roads. if you are the type that is a food snob, keep away. if you like a night with friends, drinking beer or wine, eating wings and generally having a laugh then this is the place for you. 33 flavor of wings of which i can think of 6 or 7 are outstanding and only a couple should avoid. the wife is a burger freak and they can be cooked in any of the marinades which keeps her happy. been there probably 50 times and the service is almost always excellent. really could do with one in richmond instead of all the insipid jock filled buffalo wild wings.

great wings.. good seating, the booths are huge.. well placed to see the games at every table i've sat it.. karaoke night is pretty fun and the garlic garlic garlic wings are delicious

food is pretty good overall. boneless wings leave much to be desired--- past few times they tasted like they were frozen, not fresh, and the batter was too dense. good salads, good wraps... liquor drinks are weak and not worth the price. extensive wing sauce list.

tasty wings. my first visit to a wild wing franchise and was impressed. waiter suggested the jalapeno cheddar bone-in wings and was a little hesitant due to wrapping my head around combining cheese and wings but these were amazing. chips and salsa was very fresh and good. would come back.

not a bad lunch at all.. this was my first time back in wild wing cafe in several years. the place hasn't changed a bit from what i can see. we arrived on a the tail end of lunch and were immediately seated.

i really wasn't in the mood for wings and ended up ordering a bacon cheeseburger and i'm quite happy that i tried their burger out. the burger was deceptively large. while it didn't take up a lot of space on the plate, it was tall and definitely a steak type burger. it was garnished with ridged french fries which were also excellent. my usual lunch companion and co-worker william had a grilled buffalo chicken sandwich and said he really enjoyed that as well. in fact the exact words were "it was better than hooters"...

all in all a delicious meal, friendly service and all around pleasant experience. we'll be back so.

much better than expected.. i've been trying to get in here to have a meal for a while now and it finally happened yesterday after work. not bad at all for a wing joint. in fact it was much better than i expected.

the first thing i want to point out was the excellent service we had from our server leslie. she was perfectly attentive, neither coming by the table to much or to little. the beer stayed full. she has lots personality and very knowledgeable about the menu. high praise there.

next would be the meal. the place was about half full when we arrived at 5:30 and was filling up quickly. after putting our orders in i don't think we waited more than 10-12 minutes before the food was being placed on the table. they were running on all cylinders and again, not expected and pleasantly surprised.

i'm not sure how many wing sauces they have but here are definitely a lot to choose from. for dinner i had the mini corn dogs with mustard and the spicy garlic wing sauce called the slayer. it wasn't nuclear, but it definitely put some sweat on the forehead. damn fine dinner. i really enjoyed them. the sauce was tangy and there was minced chunks of garlic on every single wing. delicious!

you do not have to settle for wings if you come here. they have a full menu that touches just about all genres. i recall some mexican meals like quesadillas and soft shell tacos, several different kinds of shrimp, steaks, ribs, bbq, burgers, wraps, appetizers, etc. and of course a kids menu. everyone should be able to find something on the they like.

one other thing i want to point out is they have something going on pretty much every night of the week.

sunday - karaoke.
monday - cornhole league.
tuesday - buy 8 wings. get a 8 wings free (5-10pm).
wednesday - trivia and $2.25 drafts.
thursday - $3 beam, morgan or soco.
friday - 2 for 1 apps & live music.
saturday - 1/2 price wine for the ladies and live music.

when i walked in here i was under the impression that this place would be exactly like buffalo wild wings. i was completely wrong. this is not a sports bar. the staff here shows a lot more personality and it shows in their performance. to me anyway, wild wing cafe has raised the bar on how this type of establishment should be run.

we had a good experience. service was good, food was tasty and reasonably priced. this is a great sunday afternoon spot for football and yummy food.

wings, wings, wings!!!. wild wing cafe is the only wing place our family and friends go. they have the best wings in hr! the variety of sauces will please even the pickiest of people.

perfect dining atmosphere for an easy night of beer and wings (and who wouldn't enjoy that!)

eh, nothing special. went with the family. ordered various things, wings, bar-b-que, potato soup, hot spinach dip. nothing really stood out. wait staff attentive, good. would go again if someone paid.

bartenders are fabulous. new summer 'red, wings & you menu is awesome. i had the turkey burger with sweet potato fries and would give it an a+!!

great place to eat. awesome wings and superior service!

awesome wings and service. i've been to just about every wing place in hamptonroads and this place is in the top 2. the wing selection was awesome. my wife normally doesn't eat wings, but they actually had a selection that she loved. great work. consider me a regular, now!

make things right. i was there recently with some office buddies for a birthday lunch. we got there early to avoid the rush and i ordered some white chicken chili along with my wings. when it came out the first time, the cup of chili was only hot liquid -- no beans or chicken meat and not spicy at all. i asked the manager to have it fixed and (when it came back) it was the way that it should have been in the first place. i believe they didn't stir the pot the first time. the wings here are the best!!!

bad service. service was bad, management didn't want to tell us why it was a 25 minute wait for wings and fries. they had 3 large parties and it was obvious all the other tables would wait on them. don't go if you have a babysitter you have to pay for, or unless you mind sitting there for a half hour with a drink.
