Drove here from mill valley and the place is closed. Online it says open, the sign on the door says open but its closed! Update your times!!! Oh and the website takes you to some ice cream place website. Shady

Order the chicken club and a side of cole slaw - it’s enough for two… and the most amazing sandwich I’ve had in awhile! Bacon, avocado, cheese, onion, lettuce etc… chicken was moist and tender… and a bargain to boot… there were Dominican Univ students there… and they’re good at finding the bargains on 4th st…This place looks a little dodgy from sidewalk looking in… but don’t let that fool you… it’s main sign is saying fish and chips - I’ll try that the next time…Parking: Not always nearby

Pretty decent food but the fact that this place doesn’t close at 8pm like most downtown gives it an additional ⭐️. Prices are cheap and food it good. We’ve been here multiple time and it hasn’t disappointed at all. Cheers y’all!

This is my idea of gourmet burgers and fries! We found this place on a whim on a road trip. We were actually following directions to another place and when we saw the sign we decided to stop there instead. So glad we did! The burgers are big and juicy! I had avocado and tomatoes on mine, and both were ripe to perfection. In fact, this place was so good that we stopped by there a second time on the way home and I tried the chicken sandwich as well. OMG, and I forgot to mention the garlic fries! So, so delicious.If you are anywhere near here it is worth stopping by. Visiting the Mission? Stop by before or after. Driving by on the 101? Pull over and grab a bite to eat. My friend even took some food to go after eating food there.Vegetarian options: There are some options, but if you just want vegetarian options, there are other places to eat.Kid-friendliness: It isn't a place where kids can play, but if your kids know how to dine while out there is no reason kids can't go.Parking: Parking on the street or around the corner in public parking structures. Affordable parking that was free on Sundays.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy to wheel in and move a chair from a table.

Best wings ever. Seriously

I had the fortunate pleasure of eating here back in the early nineteen nineties. It was excellent. I recently ate there about five years ago, and unfortunately, it changed for the worse. The place was not very clean, and the people were not friendly; it's like they were laughing or immature; not serious.

Best wings in the north bay! Large super crispy wings in a variety of sauce options.

It's my first time here, and I guess this place has been here a long time, so it must be good right?, And yes I agree it is good, the portions are big and the original buffalo sauce is a little spicy for me but it's very good. I ordered the large salad and it was huge. The burgers are also huge, the prices are a little high, But it's Marin County so it's going to be high. It's kind of a small spot there's a few tables near the register and then there's a few tables on the other side.

I've been going to Original Buffalo wings in San Rafael for quite some time now and I must say that I am a big fan. In my opinion, this is the best buffalo wings in the whole Bay area. Everything they make here is on point, the wings of course, but also the coleslaw, the french fries, even the ranch and blue cheese are excellent. It's evident they put a lot of passion in what they serve. I'm also a fan of the owner, a cool guy. I highly recommend this place.

When you look from outside you might not give the value that this place has it. We have been eating at this place for many years and the quality hasn't change. The food is made as you order and it tastes really good. Our favorites are the Philly steak sand, wings - must try them here, and there homemade chips. These chips are amazing. They will ask you if you want fries or chips - say chips :) .

I walked into this place thirty-something years ago, when Susan first opened it. Like my own family, she was from the Buffalo/Niagara Falls area of upstate New York. I told her how my uncle tried to get my mother to open a wing joint (on his dime) so I would have a business of my own to run after high school. My mother had rejected the idea because she said that nobody would buy chicken wings when they could get the whole chicken from Chicken Delight or Kentucky Fired Chicken. Susan found the story amusing and said that she got the same response when she suggested opening her wing joint. Anyway, Susan's "Original Buffalo Wings" had only one flavor, and she only sold "wings with celery sticks and blue cheese dip." No hamburgers, shrimp, cheese steaks or anything else you'll find on the menu today. She did one thing, and she did it well. And nobody else in the Bay Area was selling wings yet. She had a monopoly on chicken wings. Then one day, she sold her wing joint and it's been resold more than a few times since then. The menu has grown into a massive mishmash of everything under the sun but remarkably, THE WINGS REMAIN AS AMAZING AS THEY WERE WHEN SUSAN INTRODUCED THEM THIRTY YEARS AGO. The people who own the joint now are very nice. The menu is not to my personal liking, but the Original Buffalo Wings are actually original and made the exact way they were made at the Anchor Bar when I was a young guy--the way Susan made them when she first opened this joint. I've been eating at Original Buffalo Wings every week or two for over three decades and will continue to do so until I draw my last breath...or eat my last chicken wing.

I ate here on March 7th, 2022. The presentation may be lackluster but the food and price are great! Had 8 buffalo tenders with chips. The chicken was delicious, cooked thoroughly and evenly but not dry at all. Also the chips were not regular chips but thick and crispy. Reminded me of plantain chips. I'd love to come here and try out more items from their menu.
