"I love the gizzard style wings. Whoever is taking orders over the phone needs to work on their phone skills. Kind of rude. Food is great though."

"Came in by myself on a random Wednesday night. I expected regular service and edible food at best…boy was I wrong. Server was good and attended me at my needs, but what really stuck out to me was my steak. Asked for a very well done steak and got a steak that exceeded my expectations. Asked for the chef who I vividly remember by the name of Glyndon Rodriguez. Met the guy and told him his culinary skilled EXCELLED my expectations. He was quick…skillful…kind…and attentive to little details about my order. He received a very lucrative tip for his job. Again…great service…and EXCELLENT chefs. If you ever stop by I HIGHLY recommend asking for a young man by the name of Glyndon Rodriguez to cook you a steak."

"Best wing spot in the city. They always get the perfect fry (IMO hard/crispy and still juicy inside) that stands up to to sauces and doesn't get soggy. They have the most sauce and flavoring options available in the area. All that I've tried have been really good. They have classic flavors like mild, garlic parm, lemon pepper and they have really creative combos like jun jun and vaya pickle ranch. They fry a good fish too. Call in orders can be busy sometimes and may take a few tries. Pop in to order if you're in area, they're pretty quick."

"All I gotta say is Wingstop ain’t never gotta worry bout me again. The food is better, cost less, fried crispy just how I like it, and have better flavor varieties. The juice is on point on as well. Just wish they had some desserts on the menu."
