I've had some of the best dry-rub wings right here at Candlelight Inn! The food never disappoints, the service is consistently amazing, and the atmosphere is always welcoming. It's become a must-stop whenever I'm in town. If only there were a Candlelight Inn in San Antonio! I'd be a regular. read more

I had another amazing lunch here. I had the roast beef Balboa, which was excellent. I also tried a mango salad, which was just delicious. Wings and poppers were on point as usual in the service is always excellent. Really nice people here! Always a great time. read more

One of the things that I miss most about Westchester is the Candlelight. Whenever I get the chance, I stop by at the OG for chicken wings in the NY metro area. They have updated the bar and the dining room. The wood is lighter. The bar doesn't smell like old beer any more. We get there at 11:30. By noon, there's already a long wait. Service is friendly. The chicken wings are a top three rendition. We always order ours crispy. They stopped serving celery on the side a while ago. As a purist, I bring a ziplock bag of celery sticks. I say raise the price of an order of wings by 50 cents and serve celery again! The waffle fries are great. They have a surprisingly diverse menu with a big selection of beers. There are desserts, but I have never been disciplined enough to save room. It's cash only. This is the platonic ideal of a burger and wing joint. Set the celery sticks free! read more

A fixture on Central Ave since 1955, and family-owned since then. Last time for me was in my pre-Yelp days when I went w best friend, Pots & Pans and his son Unabelly. Still consistently delicious. Large meaty wings and drummies, connected. Lots of sauce, to the point when you break them apart, there's a lot of splatter (I think I hit a kid with some sauce about two tables away). Service very good, prices comparable to other wing places. I asked my waiter how many pounds they sold on Super Bowl Sunday. He mentioned "between 18 and 19 thousand pounds!!!" Wow, double wow. Vast majority are ordered in advance and this year they cut off orders about a week before the game. This trip was a solo run for me. My wingmen were nowhere to be found. 4 very sloppy stars read more

I come here for one thing wings. They open till 2 AM. They're so busy they had to open a secondary spot right next-door just for the takeout. The main spot on the left is a hole in the wall with a small dining room and a small bar mostly frequently by locals. There are all kinds of goodies on the menu none of which are particularly healthy, but that's not why you come here lol. Cash only read more

Ambiance: it gives grandma house but I love grandma house Service: 5/5 Food 3.5/5 Overall 3.7 Cozy vibes....definitely a chill spot to catch the game if you're into sports. I was super excited to finally try it because this place is usually packed, but I caught them on a slow night and got a seat for a family of four. Everything came out fried hard (except the mozzarella sticks, which were just right). The flavor was there, but the food was a little too hard to really enjoy. We opted to get the two order of wings, steak and fries, Waffle fries with cheese and literally everything was hard. I'll probably give it another chance though cause my friends rave about this place and the server was really sweet so maybe it was an off night. read more

Not too long of a wait after putting our name on the list. We ordered potato skins for an app. They were okay. Small, just cheese and bacon on them. 4 halves served. my husband and son had wings. They said the were very good. I ordered a steak wrap with cheddar and mushrooms. Mine came out about 10 minutes after their wings. My husband had to ask for it, since it didn't come out. VERY LITTLE Mushrooms. The steak was okay. A bit chewy. I asked for a side of BBQ sauce to give it more flavor. The servers were very nice. Bartender was a bit overwhelmed and cranky. I would go back for wings. Not for the steak wrap. But overall a decent visit. read more

Came here for a friends birthday dinner Parking is cramped, had to park on another business parking lot next to the restaurant Initially the bar gives an old school feel But it does have a funny smell throughout the restaurant like old clothes. The bar has outdoor dining as well as an upstairs dining. We waited 1 hr to be seated for a party of 8 N on top of that, once they gave us the table, they said they made a mistake, that the table was actually for another party and we had to wait an additional 30 mins to be seated There's no reservation ahead of time U have to physically come in and write your name and party size on a list hanging on the wall. So you don't know who's getting seated next since people can just squeeze their name anywhere on the list. There's no proper area for people to wait for their table So there's random people everywhere standing and also waiting outside. The drink I had was 10/10 supper strong The food was blah!!! I think it's so packed, waiters rush orders n food. Place is soso Price is good (they only accept CASH) read more

I went Friday night, 8/21 around 6 pm, with a friend. It's been awhile since I've been there. Food was delicious, all of the staff VERY nice. With that said it felt very rushed. Within minutes of each other two different servers asked if we were ready to order and it felt like the bigger focus was on flipping the tables. I know Friday nights are busy and people want to enjoy a meal without feeling rushed. Will return though. read more

Arrived at 2pm on a HOT Sunday after an outdoor sports match. We had great service and were happy to get into a quiet and pleasant vibe inside. Service was quick and the wings were so crispy! Bathroom was clean and plenty of parking in the lot. We will definitely return. read more

Came here for the wings after hearing rave reviews. Honestly, not great. Could have used an extra 2 minutes in the fryer. Nothing special about the sauce. This place wouldn't even rank in Buffalo. The burger needed salt. The onion rings and waffle fries are fantastic. The service is spectacular. The staff is warm and attentive. Cozy vibes for an old school place. Cash only. Cold beer. Would love to come back to give it another shot, but not expecting greatness. read more

Great food. Only reason giving 4 stars is for the atmosphere. But otherwise, excellent wings.

Wonderful place for a low priced delicious lunch. They are definitely renowned for their Chicken Wings among other lunch items. A typical well populated bar ambiance ! Try them.. You deserve the treat. read more

I recently moved to white plains and was looking through my bookmarks and bumped into Candlelight which I had saved many years ago as a place I wanted to try. I ordered take out because they are close to my new home and I'm so happy! I ordered through Uber eats and it was quick and easy to navigate. The customer service personnel on the phone and the delivery were friendly and professional. The food came in cute takeout boxes and stacked on top of each other. Nothing spilled and I received my order hot. The wings were delicious! The bourbon honey bbq wings could've been a little crispier. The cheese quesadillas were good, but too greasy. The waffles fries were the best item that we ordered. Can't wait to try other options on the menu! read more

Best wings in Westchester! They are well known for that! I like the Garlic/Parmesan wings, but the plain unsauced wings are my favorite! Sauces are great and the onion rings and French fries are top shelf! Old style pub ambience and service is great! read more

It was okay. Wings were perfect amount of crispy had the dry rub and also had the hot teriyaki sauce had a good amount of sauce but the sauce was meh overall they were mid in my opinion. read more

The food is good but the service sucks! Takes too long to get the food to the table and people who came after us got served before us.

This place is everyone's favorite wing spot for a reason. This place serves some of the freshest tasting wings I have ever had!! So fresh, they don't even detach the wing from the drum. This place is always busy and has a waitlist for a table every time so be prepared. Tip: ALL CASH and you need to write your own name on the table waitlist sheet attached to the wall when you first walk in on your left. The wings are a perfect 10/10. The fan favorite sauce is the hot/teriyaki mixed together. The ambiance is as casual as it gets with a family friendly atmosphere. A lot of families come to eat here and I see why. Growing up, when it comes to game day, Candlelight wings are a staple for every party. Every Super Bowl, this place always sells out of wings. I see why this place is family owned since 1955, and has a family feel to it. If you are on Keto, they will cater to your needs. The wings are not breaded and they prepare all their fried food in cholesterol free canola oil (NO TRANS FAT). This place also offers takeout and available through Uber Eats. read more

Nothing stood out as a reason to come back. Didn't even finish half of the "cheesesteak sandwich. Wings were very ordinary.

The wings are overhyped in this place. I kept hearing about how amazing it is and how it's the best place for wings but the wings were mid at best. Now the broccoli bites? That gets them all three stars I've given them. The service was also okay at the table although the bar sitting while we waited for the table was pretty nice. For some reason the second floor is also freezing cold so bring a thick sweater if you come in winter! P.S: the mimosa was also horrible so stick to beer here! read more

Always crowded and have to wait hours to be seated just like to go there to get Togo food

This was my first trip back since COVID. I grew up here and have fond memories of late night wings and cheese fries after school events. The place is just as great as it ever was. You can order bottles of Coke or Diet Coke vs. fountain drinks. CASH ONLY. Sign in when you get there to get a table and don't linger when you are done. Free up the table for others waiting in line and hang out at the bar if you want to chat after eating. They give generous pours at the bar. I had 10 extra hot wings and a custom 12 oz burger with sauteed onions, lettuce, tomato, and bacon, super rare. The burger was perfect, as was the bacon. The wings come whole, so if you order 10, you, technically, get five. You are given a fork and knife to split the wings. You are also given wet naps and a generous helping of napkins. Wings were meaty, crispy, well-sauced and temperature-hot. Given them a chance to cool down after you get them. The spice won't go away. I opted for ranch vs. blue cheese, but didn't use it anyway. If you wear contacts, eat with the hand that doesn't handle them. Next time, I will opt for Chernobyl. Extra hot has a kick, but didn't even turn my cheeks red and no eye tearing. This is a great local hangout, but parking is tough. The building on the south side is the original and I recommend sitting there. It's cramped and has limited seating, which really adds to the experience. They have three TVs running on sports channels in the dining area. Service is very friendly, but rushed because they are so busy, so be ready with your order and be polite. Remember to tip well. read more

Have lived in Westchester my whole life and this is my first time here because it was one of the only places open. But LOVED it. Wings and mozzarella sticks and waffle fries. Only complaint is that the restaurant is so small and it felt like the other table was on top of us. read more

Horrible customer service. My entire table received their meals, and mine never came out. I asked about it three separate times and was repeatedly told "it's on the way," but it never arrived. By the time everyone else finished eating, I asked our waiter again where my food was, and he responded, "you never got it". To make matters worse, the waiter never once checked on our table during the meal. I tried multiple times to get the attention of other staff, but they would look directly at me and then walk away as if I didn't exist. Overall, a very disappointing experience due to the lack of attention and basic customer service. read more

I've ordered from Candlelight multiple times, and unfortunately, they keep forgetting key items like sauces. It's a simple part of the order, and when it's missed, it affects the whole experience. To think sitting around at a counter all day is so hard you constantly forget items that were paid for in some else's order. Candlelight needs to stop hiring these incompetent little girls that don't want to work. read more

Living in the area for over 20 years, candlelight meets and exceeds the staple of a family business creating a family environment. From the late nights after an evening out with friends back in the day, fast forward to the comfort food that's guaranteed for my 15 and 30 year old, Candlelight is the go to place for all generations. read more

When a place that has a dining room that's the size of a large bedroom is famous for their wings. You know something good must be happening there.......and it is! Me and my friend went on a Wednesday at 5:30 and had to wait 20 minutes to sit in the dining room and eat. I cannot even imagine what this place must be like on a Friday or Saturday at seven. A+++ bar food. The wings are really good (nothing crazy spectacular or unique). Crispy but still meaty. Meat comes right off the bone. Unfortunately: waited a half hour for our food, burger was over cooked ( I ordered medium......it was well), dry rub wings were wasaaaay too salty. That being said still EASILY 4 stars......SALUD!!!!!!! read more

I called in because I placed an order online for mobile pick-up and one of my wings a certain way, and when I called, the young light-skinned lady picked up the phone. She was very rude and unprofessional when I got to the store; she was even being rude with coworkers, laughing at me like if something was funny because I was confused when she was talking to me on the phone like that . You guys probably don't even care, but I wasted thousands of dollars here coming with my family, coming by myself to eat dining-in takeout, and I will no longer come to this establishment. I also spoke to the manager with no bottom teeth; no help at all. Also, the two young girls that you have in the front, the chubby one and the skinny one. They will end up like the manger with no bottom teeth tbh is happened around 10 pm on the 10th! read more

My cousin been talking about the wings at candlelight inn, and he would always be posting he is there eating wings lol. It's a small cozy place with a bar up front. Service is great .

I was told this was "THE PLACE" for wings! I drove down to Scarsdale expecting to be blown away and yet I was hugely disappointed! Look, it's 'exactly' what I expected -- well, minus the bad food. I ordered a dozen wings, naked, well-done and with extra 'hot' sauce on the side! Got NONE of that! I received regular cooked wings, covered in sauce, and that sauce wasn't hot (it was probably their standard or mild). As is my M.O., I did 'not' send anything back as I don't waste food! I also ordered a plate of homemade onion rings. Soaking wet in oil! I got a grand total of 5-sticks of carrots to nibble on before horrible order arrived. Positives: Big beer selection, very reasonable prices and nice people! read more

Ive been coming here since I was a kid. I actually can't believe it took me this long to to a review..but Im not in the area often these days. First, let's say this place is an historical landmark and a local institution. That said, I haven't had their wings in years ( as I live up state now ), but definitely fell like the wings have changed a little.. the sauce is still on point..but I'm not a fan of the bigger, clunckier wings..harder to eat then i recall..and I'm not a fan of the attached wing and flats..I really don't wana work that hard while I'm trying to enjoy my meal..nor do I want to burn my fingers trying to separate the pieces. ( yes they come out very hot ) the workers are very nice and I've known many for years..but as I was saying I brought my wife her today for a treat..and was kinda disappointed! The mozzarella sticks and potato skins were yummy, the beer was cold..but between the new changes to the wings I used to love and remember..and the same annoying regulars that I remember from 5 years ago dominating and taking over the bar so I can't even get a seat..I think this icon is more about it's reputation and history then it is about its current delivery. This hurts me. Especially for my 100th review..mediocre wings and drunk regulars taking over the bar from 2pm to 5pm daily like they own it...im good..I'll keep going to Roosters and save the gas and annoyance. I saw today, they have a St. Patrick's days special on the 17th (all you can eat corned beef and cabbage), maybe I'll give them an opportunity to change my mind..but who knows. Reputation is one thing..but you can't rest on it for life. Honestly, I was disappointed and embarrassed that I spent 20 years telling my wife how special this place was. read more
