2nd time going, figured I'd give it another shot. Wings were over cooked and just not good at all. Sauce was good, but good sauce you can find anywhere. It's just not my place. Drinks were made really good, so hats off to the bartenders. Although they did forget to put in my app order. If I go back, it will be for the bar only.

Had a great time sitting on the patio tables could have been cleaner but that’s pollen for you. Our server was great super friendly and gave us time to enjoy our food. We went for bogo wings and it’s so so worth it. I love wings and it’s hard to find a spot with yummy wings and sauce options, they have so many options and the prices are good especially for this! Another bonus is great beer specials throughout the week.

I used to come to this place alot. But recently, the last 3 times I attempted to dine at wild wing cafe, they were closed. Closed twice at 8pm and once at 9pm, despite the hours updated by the owner on Google only 6 days ago stating that they close at 10. I'm genuinely confused as the the actual hours and would like to visit my favorite restaurant for late night wings and a beer again.

Dang, man. This was my SPOT! I have loved WWC for 10+ years. I can honestly say I was more than taken aback at how downhill things have gone at our location. After being out of the area for some time we visited our favorite wing spot today only to run into some major disappointments. Let’s break them down:1) they are working with an incredibly limited menu now. I’m talking it is maybe 1/4 of the size it used to be. It’s now comparable to like… Wing Stop. Total fast food vibe and absolutely no notice about the change posted anywhere.2) They used to have the best spicy Bloody Mary’s in the area. I was served one today that was in a mini glass and was basically just a glass of tomato juice mix. The pour was sad,I miss being served in a pint glass…especially for the cost of the drink.3. The quality of the food was SO bad. This is probably the first time I’ve ever been here and not enjoyed the grub. We had to send my son’s tenders back- they came out almost black. My salad had multiple tomato’s with mold on them. Not only were the tomato’s bad- the chicken was primarily just burnt breading bits..sans chicken. My husband was also served a raw chicken sandwich. The breading of his sandwich was also super dark brown (former kitchen manager here- that grease needs to be changed and they aren’t setting those fryers at the right temps) even though the chicken was not fully cooked. Our tab was about $65. I had a $40 gift card. The manager did comp the rest of the bill which was great- I was thankful I did not have to pay for the raw sandwich or moldy salad…but man…what happened to this place? The server there was really nice. We felt so bad for her we left her a $20. It’s not like she could control the continual disbeliefs of the mess that was the experience we had today.. I hope she finds a better place of employment. Her service was on point. Anyways- at the very least for all those that once loved WWC- they don’t even have a sign posted on the door about the gigantic menu change/flop…during our visit we watched 2 other tables in the almost empty joint walk out just due to this alone. I don’t see them lasting much longer unfortunately.

Went there on 1/2/23. Bartender was horrible. Big time attitude. Let everyone know that she was called in because someone called out. Total changed the whole atmosphere Of the night. Ordered a beer and she said we are out of a lot of them and what we have is warm. Asked for food menu. All we have is a limited menu tonight. Got their ten piece wings with blue cheese. It was blue cheese and ranch mixed together. When I told here. She snaps and said it's blue cheese. Was going to stay for Monday night football. But not with her tending bar. Place was empty when I left at 8:00pm. What a shame. Been there a dozen times and loved it.

Are used to love to go here because their wings are great but their service and food has gone downhill. We ordered an appetizer waited about 20 minutes for the waitress to come out and say they didn’t have it. We were understanding so we ordered another appetizer which took another 20 minutes for them to bring out half of what was supposed to be on the plate. When I asked them about it they said that they had run out but yet they still only brought us half of what was supposed to be on our plate and didn’t say anything until we noticed. When it did come out it was cold and ever cooked. The manager offered a discount but had an attitude about it. Then our wings took another 20 minutes to come out ! Our quick dinner turned into a two hour wait for abs and wings…

We used to go to this location of Wild Wing all of the time and loved it. Service and food were always good. Me personally I used to go for lunch occasionally but stopped going because my favorite, the signature grilled chicken sandwich with a wing sauce, took a nosedive in quality. (this was about 3-4 years ago) My family, who also used to go all of the time, decided on a whim to go last night. It was a decent sized party, 5 adults and two kids. We got there and the restaurant was maybe 1/3 full compared to years ago when it was always packed especially on Tuesdays. I understand that inflation and employee shortages make things more difficult now and we took this into consideration. Three of us ordered wings except me who decided to try the chicken sandwich again, my wife who ordered chicken tenders and the kids who ordered the appetizer pretzel. It wasn't a complicated order. The order however took almost an HOUR to come out..... As I said before the restaurant was not busy at all and there were more than enough servers. My mom, aunt and uncle said the wings were pretty good, much smaller and fairly average otherwise. My chicken sandwich seemed to be a microwave style chicken breast on a bun with one piece of white lettuce and a slice of tomato, I couldn't finish it. The fries were good at least. My wife said the chicken tenders weren't very good either. The pretzel was good so I did get to eat some of it. I am not one to complain especially at a restaurant because I have worked in restaurants and have been in that position, but it was just very disappointing. I won't say much about how much our check was because things are more expensive now but it was very very expensive for the quality of food we received. We could have gotten a much better meal elsewhere for much cheaper. Sadly we won't be going back.

Chriss was my server & Sandra (pardon misspelling) was the manager. The restaurant is cleaner than times I've been there, before. I love the wings & the flavors, and have for years. As with many restaurants, the floor used to be a bit slippery, from too much oil/grease residue in the mop. Today, the floor was squeaky clean. The restroom was cleaner, too. As well as the table & chairs. The service seems to be more personable than before. All this only adds to my enjoyment of their food. I still wish they had a restaurant closer to me, because I travel two hours to go to get that good food. The military area I live in would be a massive money maker for this restaurant & would give big competition to all the restaurants in the area.

Had a great experience as always. Great drinks and a TON of flavors for wings. Menu is surprisingly expansive and service is excellent.

Ordered this after my shift one night and just had a serious question, is this even chicken? Taste pretty horrible and looks unholy unappealing. Wasted the money, oh well sunk cost.

Terri Yuzon

Best wings around. Excellent atmosphere, fun food menu and drinks. Great place for Sunday night football!

Travis Mitchell

Good boneless wings and flavors but I was disappointed with the size of traditional wings plus to add a side of fries cost me $6 which was crazy.

Jason Parris

Let me say the flavor was on point; however, the size of the chicken wings was a little disappointing. I gave them three stars out of five solely based upon flavor. Please upgrade to a better distributor for your poultry! Then I’d give a solid 5 star review. I’d like to add that my experience with the staff was 5 stars! Flavor 5 stars. Wings need to be upgraded!

Walked in at 6:17Took several minutes before someone greeted me and then sat our party of 9 (7 adults, 2 children)Got appetizers, they took 45 min to get.1 min later dinner came out (literally)Food was not bad but the service lacked in so many ways. Also, it was 66° outside and they had the AC on so high that we were all freezing.I am in our vehicle waiting (because its so cold) and they still have not been able to pay. It is now 7:55pm. Would not return here.
