Atomic Wings

“I went with a single order (to start) slathered in the Abusive sauce (3rd hottest behind Nuclear and Suicidal) with an order of the Waffle Fries (add cheese for just .75 cents).”

“The wafer fries are pretty good and they are even better with the cheese sauce that you get to dip in.”

“There are 6 degrees of hotness, and I go for the second-hottest, the "nuclear" wings.”

  1. Ordered here with a bunch of people to watch a basketball game. We ordered 70 wings, in 4 different flavors: medium, garlic Parmesan, chipotle BBQ and sweet & tangy. Overall, the wings were solid. The medium was very mild, so would probably recommend hot if you're looking for any kick at all. Other than that, the garlic parm sauce was very good and flavorful. Wings were cooked decently, however didn't have the crispy skin some places are able to master (could have to do with the delivery).

    As with many other reviewers, the service was less than average. Delivery window was 45-60 minutes, ended up taking about an hour twenty. Not terrible for the amount of food, however the lateness was compounded with the wings being lukewarm at their arrival.

    Still – this place offers solid wings at a decent price. Next time I find myself needing a larger order, I'll still order from here, but will order a little further in advance.

  2. When you drink beer for six or seven hours, all things/wings are going to taste good. I recently learned, and am happy to report to you fine people, that Atomic Wings are no exception.

    This location delivers because they know their target demographic isn't good at walking, and they do so in a timely manner. In addition to the wings that were one step above regular Hot (Fiery? Suicidal? I can't keep track of the names), I also enjoyed the "Jerk BBQ" flavor. It's not really "jerk" in any sense, but it's a spicy BBQ that I downed pretty quick.

    The wings aren't going to blow your mind, but they really will hit the spot when you already have football and beer, and need to complete the trifecta.

  3. When I go to Atomic WIngs, it's usually out of bored desperation.  The wings served here are typical of the overly sauced and sticky wings that we all grew up with, but with  the rise of many varieties of chicken wings (Bon Chon, Kyochon, etc.) we no longer have to settle.  I will still come to this location for old time's sake or to order the burgers which are decent.

  4. came back here after the CEO and Founder of Atomic Wings contacted me after i emailed the Atomic Wings site.

    ordered the same Buffalo Chicken salad. the chicken issue was corrected, but two items were still MISSING from the salad. so sad and pathetic–the salad ended up being a pile of chicken, lettuce, tomatoes and dressing. not untasty but fairly underwhelming and unsatisfactory.

    i am unsure whether the kitchen here just doesn't have the remaining ingredients of the salad or they are refusing/forgetting to add them.

    anyway not sure why this place has repeat customers.

  5. What. The. Hell. I did not like this atomic wings location. I go to other locations on UES, big vat of chili in bowl size given on delivery.

    Here? They give you 1/2 the size, wtf? And the macaroni and cheese. A sad, sad story. Noodles with melted cheez whiz. Disgusting.

    The food came in 5 min to my apartment. That was a bad indication there.

    Never again this location because its crap food and they jip you on the amount.

    I'd prefer to give no stars -_-

  6. Three stars because I only paid $1.15 for 10 wings and celery and carrots from this place (grubhub deal), and I wasn't expecting much to begin with.

    They aren't terrible wings… just not out of the ordinary.  I will admit though, that their abusive sauce is just the right amount of spicy I like on my hot wings.  The wings and sauce taste like your run-of-the-mill appetizers at some cheap American restaurant.

    Also, I asked for ranch and received blue cheese.  Meh.

  7. The buffalo wings here are okay. They're not any better than the wings you can order at any bar. For $8, you can get ten wings that come with some celery and carrots and blue cheese dressing. The wings were a little soft and as not as crispy as I like. They are also not that spicy, even if you ask for very spicy.
    I also had some of their waffle fries with cheese sauce on them. They were very greasy and fattening, which for me means that they were also somewhat delicious!

  8. Note to self: Do not order from here during the beginning of football season on a Sunday.  

    1. Took over an hour for food to arrive
    2. Wings were hardly cooked and had gross fatty skin hanging from them
    3. All of the sauce on the wings was absorbed by the cardboard
    4. The fries were totally soggy
    5. FAIL.

    Not sure how I feel about you anymore Atomic Wings.  You were not worth the wait or potential calories.  In the trash you go!
