Slappy's was a really solid fried chicken spot, and I'm giving it 4 stars because there was a lot…read moreto like, but I think it has room to become a 5 star experience. The chicken itself was excellent. It was incredibly juicy, perfectly fried, and had a great crispy coating. My only issue was that the breading felt like it was missing a little something, maybe more seasoning, pepper, or some extra flavor. Growing up with places like Gus's Fried Chicken in Memphis and Nashville hot chicken, I think I naturally expect a little more punch from the chicken itself. The sauce they serve is more of a barbecue style sauce, and while it worked, I personally didn't love it enough for it to carry all the flavor. The sides were a mixed bag. The collard greens were really good and definitely one of the highlights. The coleslaw, though, was way too pepper heavy for my taste. Also, the piece of bread that comes with the meal was honestly not worth the calories. I'd rather see them either upgrade the bread or skip it altogether. One unexpected highlight was the pebble ice from the drink machine. Small detail, but it was awesome and definitely appreciated. Overall, I'd come back and try some different sides because the chicken itself is worth returning for. With a little more seasoning or some different sauce options, I could see this being a 5 star spot.

But the sides here suck. No fries - never has been. Cheese it Mac n cheese is just not aging well after 9 years. Coleslaw here is the absolute worst - like missing sugar to cut cabbage taste - it's been bad for a while. Potato salad is just mush - I would rather have grocery store potato salad. They have beans and collards - they are fine - but not what I want. Spend $21 for upper tray with a Cheerwine and tip and you want to feel excited. I just ate the chicken - took 2 bites of the sides - ate the roll and pitched the tray. Coleslaw and potato salad is a personal choice - so could just be me. I hate them. My table was split on coleslaw - mostly plain cabbage. Everyone agreed on potato salad - maybe old? Maybe recipe - maybe who made it yesterday. Been a diehard since beginning - over it. Not worth $21 for just me if I don't love it.

I ordered the Timmy's Hot Chicken sandwich, which comes with hot chicken, pickles, and a sauce, plus crinkle fries. I got some extra sauce and I am glad I did.

I was very disappointed with my order and overall experience…read more Ordered: 1-whole wing cooked "medium", with crispy fries and no seasoning. The Wings were "Spicy" The fries were soggy and had a lot of seasoning, despite my requesting "no seasoning " I have pictures of the food before it was discarded. Unfortunately, the service also added to my disappointment. The server, JM, was not friendly or professional. I felt as though my presence was a bother rather than being treated as a valued customer. I paid for food and service that did not meet my expectations or the Medium wings and crispy no reasoned fries requests. I would like a refund for my order, however, at this point, i know its not possible.

This restaurant began in Garland, Texas in 1994, and has grown very rapidly, bucking the trend of…read morefast food spots over the last few years, becoming a bit of a food media darling! I've tried their Fried Chicken Sandwich ( small filet, middle of the pack overall), but not the wings. Today I ordered the classic wings, both the Original Hot and the Lemon Pepper dry rubbed - a 6 piece mix & match combo for $12.69, it comes with their famous, well seasoned FF and a large drink. I also got a side of Cajun Corn medallions. I got both the Blue Cheese and the Ranch sauces. The FF are rather unique for a fast food spot - freshly hand cut, with a bit of skin left on, sprinkled with a seasoning mix that gives the fries sweet, salty, and savory aspects. While these fries are very popular, I'm not a fan of the seasoning, don't care for the sweet flavor on fries. Without that sweetness, these would be very, very good fries in both taste and texture - as it is, I would pass on a combo on any future visits, or swap out the fries for celery or such. The corn medallions are sliced directly from the cob, deep fried, and then sprinkled with Cajun seasoning. The corn was tasty and in medallion form, easy to deal with, but a touch greasy. The medallion were easily handled with one hand, a convenient touch. Now let's talk about the wings. The wings served here are touted as never frozen , and are cooked to order. The cooked to order claim is simply not always the case - at heavy traffic times, full baskets are cooked in anticipation of orders to be received - just how broad is the "cooked to order" window? Since around 90% of Wingstop restaurants are franchised operations, I would guess there can be significant differences in the breadth of that window. As to the never frozen, this approach brings up logistical issues for the individual restaurants - dependable suppliers capable of frequent deliveries, determining proper delivery sizes - would locations be tempted to freeze chicken to reduce loss? Would cooked wings be "carried over" to the next day? Like always, get to know your restaurant if you expect you will visit more than just occasionally! As is my habit when visiting a restaurant, I arrived shortly after the posted opening time - here it is 10:30. As was the case at the other location ( and a good number of other restaurant spots), they weren't really ready to conduct, still prepping, organizing, turning on the fryers, checking their cell phone, getting ready for their day in the world of fast food service! Took just under 25 minutes to get my order, not exactly fast food speed. The Original Hot wings were very nice with the sauce providing the right amount of heat to complement the plumb, well cooked chicken. The texture was also excellent with the tender meat pulling cleanly off the bone. The wings were nicely sauced with a bit of residue at the bottom for more dipping, but not so much as to make the wings soggy in any way! The Lemon Pepper wings were much the same, though I found them as touch bland. The Blue Cheese was good, but not great. I thought the ranch was the stronger of the two! Would I come back for these wing - only if a convenient drive by. There are a number of spots locally that topped these wings, with comparable pricing and better service - Starting with Ronni's, Waldo's, Sixty-Six, and even Longhorn, for dry rub. And other very good choices include Pizza Hut (Yes, Pizza Hut), Chili's, East Coast Wings, Buffalo Wild Wings, Applebees, and of course Zaxby's! Long review, but for a reason - this chain is getting a lot of media attention - sometimes this works, sometimes it don't - we'll see, I think there are storms on the horizon, with the service aspect the most troubling!

A must try! There are no Wing Stops where I'm from so when I came across it on Yelp I figured I'd…read moregive it a shot and I'm glad I did. When I walked inside to pick up my order I was the only customer at that moment. The woman behind the counter immediately greeted me and asked if I had placed an online order with my name. I confirmed and she said she was finishing up making it at that very moment. She was very polite and welcoming. I got 15 boneless wings, lemon pepper and Louisiana dry rub as well as French fries well done with a Cajun seasoning. The chicken far exceeded my expectations. It was extremely juicy, full of flavor and crunchy!! The lemon pepper did not seem like it was lazily seasoned and tasted like they actually used real lemons to make it. The Louisiana rub seemed like it was just your classic Cajun seasoning but it was still good! As good as the chicken was, the fries did not match in quality. I opted to have them well done because I love any and all crispy foods (who doesn't?) But I was wrong in thinking that would make them extra crispy. They were super soggy, had zero crisp to them, and were basically just mush. The woman working hooked me up though. She made sure I had extra ranch, ketchup packets, napkins and silverware. She even threw in a brownie for me! I want so badly to be able to give them 5 stars based off our interaction and her level of customer service, but the fries were too bad for me to be able to give 5 stars. I will definitely be back! If you haven't tried their wings you need to. Skip the fries though

First impressions upon walking in: this place was hopping! There were about 6 tables occupied in…read morethe dining room around 5:30pm on a Friday evening but they were definitely busy with call in/online orders and plenty of people were coming and going for pick up. Wingstop isn't spending their money on decor. It's pretty basic with a tan and green color theme. At least the chairs have padding. They have 3 TV's in the dining room but muted of course and NO music. Ugh. It's become an epidemic with restaurants in Winston. We ordered some original mild tenders, bone in wings in Lemon pepper and original hot, , Cajun corn and veggie sticks. Of course we got sides of their famous ranch and a honey mustard sauce as well. The tenders are big! I got a 5 piece and I could only eat two. I had two bone in lemon pepper wings as well and now I know what the hype on this flavor is all about. SO good! I want to try that flavor in the tenders next time. When we placed our order, we were told it would be 18 min. I've read some reviews on the other location in Winston about it taking much longer than the quoted time so I set my stopwatch to see how long it would actually take. Almost to the minute it was 18 min. This location just opened so many employees are still training but we were well taken care of at the counter, ordering and someone checked on us twice to see if we needed anything while we were eating. A+ for excellent service Wingstop Hanes Mall Blvd! Please keep that standard and you'll have a regular customer in me. For my first visit to Wingstop I can see why it's so popular. I'll definitely be back.

Still looking for the best fried chicken sandwiches, so I stopped by here. I ordered the chicken…read moresandwich ($5.79), and a large Simply Lemonade. I was told it would by 15 minutes or so as they were just getting cranked up - yet another spot that is not ready for business when they open the doors! The timing was as I was told, and I headed out! This is a small filet as these filets go in national chains probably in the 6 ounce range, maybe a bit heavier than the smallest which is Chick-Fil-A. It is wide but it is also thin and cooked up a bit dry. The pickles and the sauce added a little zip, but at the end of the day this is a middle tier sandwich - my rating would be 7 out of 10. This sandwich is a bit pricey when the size is factored in, especially when measured against the heavyweights - KFC and Popeyes! Ambiance - 2.5 Food - 3.5 Service - 2.5 Value - 3

I loved the interior - I think I was…read moreexpecting it to be a lot darker and more "country," but the high ceilings, brick, sage green walls and bare trees strung with lights created a cool vibe. There were a lot of interesting sounding cocktails on the menu, but I wasn't feeling super adventurous so I just got a glass of Chardonnay. I also wasn't super hungry so I got the Big Ol' Pretzel with queso (other side choices were brown sugar or mustard) and a Caesar side salad. The pretzel was great. It was salty and had a great texture (and did not have that microwaved chewy texture that you get sometimes)! I do prefer beer cheese to queso but the pretzel was so good it wasn't a huge deal. The side salad was larger than expected. I didn't care for the dressing. It was not a traditional Caesar taste or texture - not creamy, more of a vinaigrette, and gave the salad greens a slimy texture. Our server seemed busy but was pleasant and checked on us and food was served in a timely manner.

Well...this is interesting…read more I debated whether or not I was gonna have a burger for lunch, because I have to work. Burgers typically put you in the food coma. I did not want to be sluggish in the afternoon from over eating. But the menu described a burger that seemed impossible to turn down. I ordered one...and.... I thoroughly enjoyed this burger. I ordered a mushroom burger with blue cheese. It was delicious. Tasty. Perfectly seasoned and cooked well. The bun was super fresh. The mushrooms amazing. The sauces superb. But if I spend $16 on a burger and soda, I expect more. This burger could have been on the kids menu at a different restaurant. Those tiny potato rolls...you know the ones...housed this mini-meal. And despite the flavor, I would never do it again. I mean, it didn't even come with fries. Imagine the look on my face with the burger came out with no fries on that tray. On top of that, my small soda was $3.50. THREE FIFTY for a small fountain soda!!!! Absurd. So, I may try this place again...because the food is really good. I just don't think they understand that value is as big a part of taste. Visit at ur own risk.

I often debate back-and-forth whether or not to go to a sports bar to enjoy it or to stay at home. The unfortunate thing about going to a sports bar is that you will have to sit next to someone that might be rooting against your team... so the food has to be really good to get me out... I am the exact opposite with the NFL. I prefer to go out and watch it at a sports bar because the games aren't that important to me. But that makes the food and ambience even more important. So, I had a client who wanted to get out for NFL football. We chose Twin Peaks. I had never been there before so I went in with no expectations. Interior looks more like a lodge than it does a sports bar. That concerned me... I am not from the south so I did not know what to expect. Were they going to serve bar food... Or was this going to a wild game menu? We were seated in the section with a server named Alyse. Someone else had recommended her section so we asked for it when we got there. She gave us the rundown the available beers and told us about the daily specials. A lot of times the server can dictate the dining experience. Her positive energy and friendliness got the evening off to a great start. She got us through some appetizer options and suggested the right topping for the nachos. They did not disappoint. The means were tasty and the quantity of food was ample for the price. She told us about the three options on the 22 ounce beers. I chose the brunette and it was cold and delicious. I am not a big beer drinker so this was a plus for me. After a bit-- the Eagles were wearing out the Cowboys-- we decided to order some wings. We were disappointed that they were out of the smoked wings, and chose the breaded ones instead. Again, Alyse, guided our wing decision and we chose the pineapple, habanero sauce, and the lemon pepper rub. The wings were sufficiently sauced and tasty. I loved the habanero sauce, even though it was probably a little too sweet for me. The lemon pepper wings were also delicious. I don't usually go for the dry rubs, but these were solid. The habanero wings were really really spicy. My client ate one and spent the next few minutes wiping the sweat off of his face. I am a professional spicy food eater so I handled them a little bit better. We hung out for a bit and grabbed our check and got out of there. If I were assigning grades, I would say that the server gets an A+ because she said the tone and was very friendly and attentive. The beer gets an A. It was cold and tasty. The nachos earned a B+. They were tasty, but they got a little soggy The wings definitely get an A. I love breaded wings and these were incredible. They were cooked well and the flavor will make me go back for more The menu is bountiful... The staff was friendly... The other diners were in a great mood....
