Went in yesterday with my girlfriend around 7 p.m. and seated ourselves right away. We waited a really long time for our food and they came up to us like 3 times letting us know that they’re sorry that they’re having issues with their kitchen and even offered free drinks/fries and we had refused because I get it, things happen. I work with restaurants throughout the United States and I love to support local businesses. The service was excellent & showed that they cared and even felt bad that we had waited a long time that they apologized multiple times. The food was delicious and well worth the wait. Will be coming back again. This is one of my top wing spots. The Birds Nest Hot Sauce and their Hot BBQ are excellent choices for wing sauces. Highly recommend

Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere and most importantly, great service! Andrew was my bartender and not only provided fantastic service, but was also very friendly and welcoming as if we were old pals. Will definitely be back next time I’m in Chicago!

Amazing wings – some of the best I’ve ever had! Do yourself a favor and skip UberEats, go in and taste these freshly served! All of the sauces are super tasty, and don’t miss the house sauce – DELICIOUS! It’s the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming. The service is excellent, and the place has a fun atmosphere, even on a busy night. A true gem of a place and I’d be a regular if I lived in Chicago. I highly recommend if you’re looking to enjoy perfect wings while catching up with friends!
