I've never been here but I've ordered a handful of times. I'm not really a wing person… but if my friend really wants to order from here, I'll give in and have a couple knowing I'll eat something else later. They're not horrible, but to me below average. I usually eat around 5 before I'm bored of them. Again, don't really like wings to begin with, so perhaps they are better in most peoples' opinion.
Let me move on to the reason why I wrote this review. I didn't want wings but my friend did. Instead of ordering from two places, I looked at the menu to see what else they had.
Grilled cheese? Perfect… I mean how can you screw up a grilled cheese? Well I'll tell you how: you put tomatoes inbetween two pieces of bread, and then put the cheese under and slap on another piece of bread. So: bread, tomatoes, bread, cheese, then more bread. Really???? I hate tomatoes and nowhere did it say this was their version of a grilled cheese. I wanted bread, cheese, bread. Like a normal grilled cheese you get anywhere else! Is this too much to ask for??
Next… I saw they had a choice of a wrap or panini both "Mexican" style with the following ingredients listed: cheese, chicken, and avocado. Love all three, let me get this. I decided to order the wrap instead of the panini. MISTAKE. First of all it wasn't cut in half, but whatever. How about the whole wrap pretty much consisted of just lettuce and tomato? WHERE DID IT SAY LETTUCE AND TOMATO? WHY IS THERE BARELY ANY CHICKEN? WHY WAS THERE LIKE, ZERO CHEESE PRETTY MUCH? And why is the avocado randomly slathered in only certain parts??
If you LOVE wings, and are willing to eat average ones because it's your favorite food then order from here… Don't bother with the rest of the menu. Not ordering from here again.
Good wings, and they used to offer an all you can drink and eat deal for about $20 several years ago. I think my group would tend to eat and drink them out of house and home, so they began raising the prices every year after, and reduce the amount of wings you were getting each plate to, to the point you were receiving about 2-3 a plate. Also supremely cold inside, no matter what time of year. They usually show a DVD when you are inside too on the tv's behind you, I distinctly remember "The Dark Knight" entertaining us while we chowed down. The spices are pretty hot, I usually just get hot and that's enough. Nuclear and (gulp) Suicidal will make your eyes and tongue fall over, no lie.
The price is right at Atomic Wings! Quality food, friendly service, BEER — all at reasonable prices… I was surprised by how large and clean the space is when you walk down the stairs. Pool table, couches, lots of tables, seems like a great place to hang out! There weren't many people there on a Friday night, so my friend and I snagged seats on the couch. They seemed busy regardless, with take-out orders. Atomic Wings has lots of options on their menu which was nice discovery, for those who do not care for wings. But obviously, we came for the wings!
Our waitress, I believe her name was Liz, was super sweet and helped us pick out our sauces for our wings (we were very indecisive.) We decided on the boneless wings combo, 1 order hot buffalo, 1 order BBQ, with a side of mac and cheese, and side of waffle fries. Wings were delicious, although I wish they were hotter (temperature-wise). For dining in, I expected the wings to be piping hot, but they weren't. Other than that I really can't complain! My friend said the mac and cheese was even better than the wings!
There is a location near my apartment in UES. Next time I'm thinking about ordering pizza, I'll switch it up and order some yummy wings instead 🙂
I gotta say this place is not too bad. Id definitely come here for lunch again. The service was good but the food took quiet some time to come out. Typically that wouldn't bother me but I was on my 1 hour lunch break so I was crunched for time. I ordered the lunch special which was 8 wings and 4 mozzarella sticks. My friend ordered the 8 wings with the waffle fries. Anyone that knows me or even reads my reviews knows that I am obsessed with buffalo wings. I was pleasantly surprised that the wings were pretty good. Id definitely get them again. The waffle fries and the mozzarella sticks were okay. Its in a basement and its dim but I liked it. It gave me the feel that I was out after work instead of mid day. I recommend!
This place was located in the basement. You have to walk down the stairs to reach the entrance. It had kidrobot toys around the entire restaurant in which I thought was pretty cool. I am a fan of kidrobot so seeing it made it interesting. There were big tv sceens. It was rather empty and dim. The moment I entered, my nose was punched with the scent of hot sauce.
Bought 20 pieces of the buffalo wings with hot sauce on the side to go. The taste of it was bland. It wasn't even hot. The wings had a faded hint of hot. It was soggy rather than being crunchy.
A weird experience. The wings itself were fine nothing special the space is super weird. In a basement and sort of dorm like/ very weird. The waiter was nice, I tried to use my Yelp check in coupon and they did not honor it. I would not go back, better wings in NYC.
What have I stepped into at this Atomic Wings location? It was a dark basement with a bunch of weird old furniture (dirty-looking couches) and metal looking high chairs.
Feel bad for giving a mediocre review because the staff were nice people. Though, the food was definitely below par – the wings were not even warm to touch and were sadly drenched in average tasting sauce. For the price of each wing, you better believe that you should lick all that sauce up until that bone is DRY, regardless how hard it is to do so……
Definitely won't come back – please do not say that this is where they serve the best wings — it is FAR from it. Ehh…Unsure why it's been open for so long.
If u just want an average buffalo wing this is the place. Nothing memorable other than the fact that they gave one piece of celery and one piece of a carrot. Smh. They do have sign u can bring your own bottle since no alcohol is served. So I guess if u can bring your own wine and beer the wings may appear better.
