I never stopped thinking about how good that experience was eating here. I find many places treat spicy bbq 90% bbq 10% hot, but these wings were the perfect 50/50 for me. I had the fortunate opportunity to come back, and my first bite was a blast from the past. I'm sure the recipes change here and there over the years, but to me it tasted just like it did in my 20's. 10/10 experience. Other than that, poutine was delicious, service was good, atmosphere was Austin!

We ordered the Peach Habanero and Lemon Pepper wings, and both were excellent. The batter was crispy without being too heavy, which made the wings really enjoyable. I also liked the ordering system. You order and pay from your phone, then ring the bell if you need service. It was simple, efficient, and made the whole experience smooth. We had a group of six, and there was plenty of seating for everyone. Good thing I live in Dallas, or this place would be taking my money all the time. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area and looking for great food.

The food is AWESOME, the service from what I can tell is GREAT, the place is convenient and visibly located. I WILL be back!

I stopped by Donkey Mo's and ordered the 5-piece jumbo wings with the soy garlic sauce, and let me…read moretell you...these wings were HUGE! The skin was incredibly crispy (just how I like it!) and the soy garlic sauce had a great balance of sweet and savory flavor without being overpowering. They definitely didn't skimp on the size either--5 wings was more than enough! I skipped the sides this time because I wanted to focus on the wings, but their onion rings caught my eye, so I'll definitely be back to give those a try. Now...the only downside was the parking. It looked like the front parking lot had been freshly painted because every parking space was blocked off with cones. Everything appeared dry, so I wasn't sure why the cones were still there. That forced everyone to park in the back, which was already super congested. I mentioned it to the staff, but they didn't seem too concerned. Honestly, if I hadn't been determined to try this place--or if it had been any hotter outside or I hadn't gotten lucky finding a parking spot--I probably would've left. Thankfully, the wings made up for the inconvenience! If they can get the parking situation figured out, this spot will be an even better experience. I'll definitely be back...and next time, those onion rings are coming home with me!

Of course, in true good boyfriend fashion, he had to bring some home for me. He ordered the Blue Magic, half wet and half dry. The description says, "Frank Lucas would be proud of the perfect hot wing," not entirely sure who this Frank Lucas is, but my boyfriend agrees: crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. Unfortunately, by the time they made it home after a late night, the flavor was still there, but the wings had gone cold and lost that crunch. If you're looking for the usual buffalo, lemon pepper, garlic parmesan, etc., you're not going to find it here. And if you're PC, you'll be turned off immediately by the names--Hot Girl, Trump, Crack, W.A.P., and Asian Chick named Sue Wang.

The server came and asked for my order and I said it was my first time here and she was super happy to help! She gave me several recommendations and I opted for the 3 piece tenders level 2 spicy and the Mac and cheese. The tenders were nice and large and juicy and the breading was crispy but not oily. The Mac and cheese was rich and so cheesy! The best part was the comeback sauce which paired with the chicken so nicely. Very awesome laid back casual spot to have lunch or dinner!

I was grateful for the napkins already at our table, and used many until I decided to just use a fork and knife to eat my sandwich. As a coleslaw connoisseur, I get coleslaw as a side whenever it's offered. The slaw here tasted like it was out of a tub. Similar to the sandwich, it was very watery and I didn't want to finish it before we left. All that said, I will be returning here and will probably order something totally different next time. This place has plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Our host and waiter were incredibly attentive and kind to us on the patio, and I enjoyed a chat with some of the wait staff as I was leaving. Really - the staff here was incredible.

There's a lot of food trucks in Austin. There are a few that I consider above the rest and Spicy…read moreBoys is one of those joints. Spicy Boys has four locations in the Austin area, with probably their most popular at Zilker Brewing. They are a spicy chicken establishment and their spicy chicken comes in different shapes and sizes from bone-in fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, and nuggets. I have only ever ordered their fried chicken sandwich and every time, I have been a fan. I always get their middle option in heat, the Hot Gai, which is sandwiched between the OG and the Tingly Gai. It hits every time. The mayonnaise, the pickles, the perfectly crisp chicken: you can't miss it. As a side, I ALWAYS without fail get their Tater Tots. They are consistently crispy while remaining soft on the inside. Sometimes I will get it seasoned with their Tingly Sichuan, but the heat is sometimes too much. I cannot recommend the tots enough. Spicy Boys is one of those places that is always there for you. They are consistently open and the people making the orders are putting a ton of dedication into making them smack every time. The sandwich alone comes at $9.50 with the tots at $3.50, which seems on par or slightly lower than a typical food truck if my memory serves me right. I recommend giving them a shot whether you are at Spokesman in Pflugerville, St. Elmo Brewing, or Zilker off 6th Street. It's in the upper echelon of food trucks. RIYL: peak chicken sammys

If the price of protection from Zilker beer was not being able to taste a chicken sandwich, I was definitely ahead of the game.

Service was excellent as there weren't too many patrons on the afternoon that we visited. The decor is cute yet casual. When we're back in Austin, we'll definitely come back!

This was probably my least favorite dish of the night. Sweet Potato Waffle Fries - crispy with good flavor. A fun side to share. Smash Burger - We had it cut in half, which made it perfect for sharing. Good burger and a satisfying way to end the meal.

This place is…read morenothing like popeyes or gus' or nashville style hot chicken, it's a different kind of falvor on it's own and hard to describe. They fry to order, the chicken is juicy, and the breading is perfectly crunchy. Best deal here is the 4pc meal deal which comes with one side, pita (closer to a tortilla), and garlic sauce. Not to downplay the rest of the meal, but this is probably one of my favorite garlic sauces. I could just eat their pita and garlic sauce for a whole meal. As for the sides, my usual go-to is the mac and cheese bites or fried okra. The mac and cheese bites are pretty much fried triangles of mac and cheese. I mostly come here for the fried chicken, but the wings are also pretty good. The halal hot isn't too hot personally, and I do like the garlic parm and curry flavors too. Again, garlic dip and/or creamy jalapeno dip for these. All in all, my experience is usually good here, but sometimes my order is wrong (usually the side), but the staff and owners are friendly and are happy to correct the orders. Order ahead to avoid waiting, or wait ~15-20min for your order to be made. Definitely give this place a try as it's been one of my go-to fried chicken places.
