If you're looking for good wings go someplace else. Visited for the first time after hearing their hot wings were suppose to be "amazing". I was very disappointed! The flavor was okay and they were lightly breaded, I liked that. But beware if you're looking for the saucy & spicy wings that I'm used to at Long Wong's, forget it. I ordered 2 dozen hot bone-in wings, and I know hot is an opinion but these were straight mild, my 3 year old ate 4 without a problem and he's not one for spicy foods. Also, I expected them to be saucy but they seemed as if they were lightly sauced (sprayed on with a mister or something) to keep the breading from getting soggy, which it was anyway. I happen to prefer sauce sitting at the bottom so I can roll them around & have them extra saucy and super hot. Another disappointment were the side of curly fries I ordered, for $4 I expected a bit more, I got a small handful of fries. Usually curly fries will be seasoned, these were not.

So if your forced to go here because Long Wong's is just too far I would suggest trying the Suicide Wings if you're looking for spicy (although I didn't taste them myself). Tues & Thurs they have wing specials, which may make their sub-par wings worth it.

Overall this place is bland, I will not return. When I'm craving hot wings, I want them hot not crying on the floor hot, but I expect to at least break a sweat. Long Wong's is still my winner!

the original Buffalo Wing place in AZ (Tempe). Been eating Native New Yorker wings since it was a little neighborhood bar in Tempe about 28 years ago! Now they have many branches. Wings have gone from 10 cents back then to 45 cents each now but on Tuesdays you get them for 25 cents. More than a dozen sauces, I still love the original in medium. Can get very crowded on Tuesdays but the wait is never very long. They also have a full menu of Italian food but wings are king.
