I have to drop it to 4 stars. The wait times are just getting silly. We took a break from coming for a year. Tonight there are about 5 tables waiting for food. We have been waiting well over 20 minutes. Beer is done and no food. You guys really need to fix this. 20 min is the the max. It is not full right now not even close. Still good wings and vibes but don't let it slip!

If you have young kids that scare easy don't go to the back seating area or the bathroom. The front might be more suitable. It's a self serve spot where you place your order in the front and get your beverages too. After you order they bring you the food. We got the black widow, magic dragon and the tarantula wings. The wings are fried to perfection. The sauce on each were great. The solidity on the magic dragon was different but good. It helped mellow out the heat. The tarantula was my favorite, sticky spicy and sweet. Will be going back to try there other flavors.

Assortment of chicken wings (green curry was our favorite)

The wings here are solid, a great spot t check out if you want to try some unique wings and flavors. The servers here at extremely friendly, and all have their own favorites on the menu to recommend. It's cool atmosphere, plays into your classic dive bar vibe.

If you like chicken wings you have to check out Dspot! So many in house sauce flavor combinations to choose from! They are meaty and saucy and soooo good! Chef D is a mastermind in the kitchen. Plenty of parking in the lot, lots of tables and chairs for indoor seating along with some pretty awesome decor. They also have a small patio for outdoor dining. They have daily specials if you check their socials and are even offering up brunch now on the weekends. Go with a group so you can try a few different flavors! Also get the seasoned fries and sauce!

Seasoned fries and harissa aioli
Tara G.

D-spot is a consistent go to for us. We've done pick up and dined in. Just be sure to check the hours, sometimes they close early, etc. My go tos (as a spice baby) are the Alfredo and the Honey bbq (I know I know, boring but delicious). Husband's go-to is the goat's blood, but he alwayand we always get the seasoned fries with extra Harissa Aioli - trust me. But truly, there's not much that can beat a quality chicken wing and beer!

Every imaginable flavor of wings! Fantastic. Easy parking. Worth a visit - recommend.

Came here around six on a Wednesday, waited about 20 minutes for our meal, everything came out super good and as ordered... Four stars soley for the environment, it's a bit loud and chaotic inside. Definitely interesting inside, I'd say it's more of an adult atmosphere! Overall pretty good! We usually get take out from here and love it!

Secret Menu
Eric W.

(Last visited August 1st, 2024). This Yelp review has been long overdue... but it's time to finally write it and give D-Spot the recognition that they deserve. Here is why D-Spot is my favorite place to get wings... in the entire world... Atmosphere/Appearance: Set off the beaten path in a small city east of St. Paul called Oakdale, MN is this incredible establishment. It's in a strip mall connected to Cub Foods and several other smaller businesses with a pretty prominent standalone Taco Bell in the parking lot, but no matter. Owner/Chef Darin loves Halloween, scary movies and the like... So inside reflects that. Lol. Off to your left is the most, detailed display of skeletons and the like. The rest of the restaurant is pretty simple. There are 2 rooms, one of them bigger than the other, but the overflow room is often closed if it isn't that busy (rare). The tiled are a cream color and there's one long booth seat that runs along the right wall with adequate tables. In the extra room is a very cool logo and a live moss "painting". Energetic music comes thumping from the kitchen throughout the day. Service: There isn't much service, which makes this whole process much quicker and less involved. Once inside you'll see someone taking orders off to the left and then the wrap-around bar. Grab a menu that'll be laying on the counter, pick out your flavors and then place your food and drink order at the kiosk then go have a seat with the number that was given to you. The longest I've seen food take here for 45 minutes and even then, totally worth it, but it usually doesn't take that long. The staff are friendly and Darin, as well as his wife are both so sweet. They're kind and don't mind having a conversation with you. Just be aware that they close between 8:00pm and 9:00pm each day so that their staff can actually have lives. Food: So there are technically 6 categories of wings here. Yes, they sell other food as well, but one whole side of the menu is dedicated to these wings. Lol. So, there's the "Green Flame" which are the sauces/rubs that don't have heat at all. Next up is the "Yellow Flame" category. These will have a light kick of spice involved in the flavors. Above that is the "Orange Flame". These will have a moderate spice level. "Red Flame" is the category I enjoy most and where my favorite wing flavor of all time resides. These have a heavy spicy flavor as a part of the sauce/rub but isn't unbearable. Now it gets crazy... "Blue Flame" is where the spice can become intolerable to even some true heat seekers like myself. I've had 4 different flavors from this category and only 1 of them didn't make me cry/sweat. The category that isn't even on the menu is "White Flame". These are only available online and have to be pre-ordered because some of these flavors take up to 48 hours to make. Yes, I'm so serious. I have no plans on venturing to this category, but be my guest. There are also 3 secret menus in which special code words (which can be found hidden around the restaurant) must be uttered in order to access them. Darin, the chef must also be in the building to prepare them. I'll only discuss my favorite flavor sauce because I've been to D-Spot over 10 times and I live thousands of miles away from this place and have tried over 40 flavors here. Volcano... from the red flame category is the perfect blend of curry flavors, Buffalo and heat. That's all I'm going to say. Plus, if you get access to the secret menus, the wings become more than just sauces and seasonings... they become entrees and events... Value: The wings here are pricy, but it is what it is. Depending on the category they can range from $10.50 for 6 to $18.00+ for 4 (Blue Flame). The spicier they are, the rarer the pepper so yeah, you gotta pay to play, but it's so worth it to have such incredible creations. In conclusion, D-Spot will forever be my favorite wing spot in the entire world. I have yet to see someone dethrone them, but some have come close. However, whenever I'm in the Minneapolis area, I will absolutely stop in because... well.. I have to! I hope you do as well.

Order of Muay Thai wings
Erin M.

This place is interesting. They have a metal vibe with a backroom seemingly out of a haunted house. Ordering is counter service. Their fountain soda is a local soda company + diet coke. The portions were small, 6 wings for $10.99 with no accompanying ranch or blue cheese. We ordered the jerkalo and asked to have the sauce on the side, and were charged $6 for a side of sauce. The flavors were delicious, but the price and vibe were not for me.

Brimstone, Wombat, and Honey Barbeque
Josh D.

Oh. My. Gosh. As I write this, my tongue is burning, my nose is running, and I might be sweating. And I LOVE it. This place has been in my radar for a long time but I never find myself on the east side of the twin cities. This weekend my world changed. I'll never be able to look at BWW the same. The only negative... choosing your wings. I should've asked for one of every flavor I got the honey BBQ (my safe play/comfort zone), the wombat, and the brimstone. I should've skipped the honey BBQ and gotten another wild/fun option. All three were bomb. So good. The wombat was my favorite of the three. Good heat level and awesome flavor. I HAD to try one from the "hot" category and the brimstone didn't disappoint. Very warm. I'm wondering what the witch doctor hits like and I'm almost a little scared. I get the "wild" and the hotter options at BWW and this place puts them to shame. If you're a wing person - make the pilgrimage to your new wing Mecca - DSpot!

Wings & fries
Brad W.

Great spot for wings! Be warned they are not playing with their hot wings!! My favorites are the Ben Grim and Pete's Dragon. Their fries are solid especially with the Harissa Aioli dipping sauce. The wings are super saucy and meaty. Chef D is a genius in the kitchen and everything he puts out is pure gold. The spot has lots of seating and the staff is always helpful. Usually busy but worth the wait.

This was my first time here, but the party I was with have enjoyed this several times and raved…read moreabout their chicken wings. I shared the loaded fries, onion rings, and boneless chicken wings served with ranch and habanero sauce. The chicken wings were my favorite. They had a tasty dry rub on it. I thought the habanero sauce was tame, but tasted great. The fries could have used more seasoning and meat. I actually didn't even realize there was meat in the dish until digging through it. The onion rings were crunch and flavorful. Personally, next time I'd pass ok the loaded fries. I do commend this establishment on their management. I did experience a problem during my meal. A server accidentally dropped a few sides of ranch while delivering the meals, and it landed down the back of my jacket. They not only covered the dry cleaning bill, but also covered the cost of the jacket when the stain did not completely come out. It's the care like this that I will remember and keep me coming back.

Visited Ray J's on Saturday, 12/20/25 around 2:30pm with a group of 8 after a family event. I…read morehadn't been here in years, so expectations were neutral. Decided to split a few appetizers: onion rings, boneless wings, and fiesta fries. The food was decent overall, but the fiesta fries were a bit disappointing and overly messy with too much cheese (I don't remember them being like that). I'd probably try a sauce on the wings next time. Our server, Nicole, was fine but nothing memorable. Also worth mentioning, gratuity was automatically added to the bill. One thing I appreciate about Ray J's is their large menu with many options. Lots of tv's available for sports watching and pull tabs.

They had 2 dedicated spots for pick up on the lot. It's located in a strip mall so there's plenty of parking spaces on the lot. The waiting area is a little small but not a big deal since they work pretty fast. I had ordered the Hawaiian and lemon pepper flavored chicken tenders with seasoned fries. I can say I did not like the Hawaiian at all but my girls thought it was pretty good. I didn't get a chance to try the lemon pepper but it was all gone so I would think it's good. The fries are steak fries so either you like it or not.

Got 8 piece boneless combo, fries were definitely soggy and I would've liked more seasoning, garlic parmesan was unimpressive but hot honey was fantastic (but would've liked more sauce too), side of ranch was massive (yay!). Dude behind the counter forgot our drinks but was nice about it when we reminded him. Limited space, practically standing room only since it's just take out place. Would get the hot honey wings again but everything else was skippable.

I think Wingstop may replace my go-to place for wings…read more I typically for for a mild or medium buffalo sauce but decided to venture out since this was our first time trying Wingstop. We got a 30-wing combo thing that came with the wings and fries. The fries were not desirable at all, tried a few, thought nawwww, fries can't be that bad, tried it again and was sure that these may be the worst fries I've ever had. But I didn't go to Wingstop for the fries, so I didn't let that bother me too much! We got three different flavors and enjoyed them all! First up, hot honey rub - this one was my favorite. This is probably my favorite wing with a dry spice rub. It had a little kick with a little taste of sweetness. Soooo good! Next was the spicy Korean Q. It was good. I didn't have any spice in mine, it was more like a teriyaki sauce. Nonetheless, super good! Not knowing how spicy the first two were, we had to order safe one for the kiddo. We went with the lemon pepper. It wasn't my choice, I just agreed. But I was actually really happy we went with it! Great amount of tangy then the salt and pepper was perfect. We will be visiting Wingstop again soon!
