    5 piece boneless wings with hot & honey bbq sauce
    Jenny T.

    Epic Wings is probably my favorite chicken wings chain, so we decided to stop here for dinner after a long drive from LA. This is definitely the smallest location that I've been to, with only about 5 or 6 small tables to dine at inside, and it seems like most of their orders here are phone ins. I got my usual Single Meal order ($11.95) of boneless wings with buffalo hot sauce and honey bbq sauce mixed together. I would recommend phoning in your order since it does feel like this location took a bit longer than usual to bring our order out. However, they explained that they slightly messed up our order and had to fix it which is why ours look longer than usual, and they compensated for it. The cashier that we talked to was super nice and accommodating, so we had no issues with the customer service here. As far as quality of the food, it's just as good as the other locations. Everything came out piping hot, and they put a lot of sauce on the chicken as well so there was plenty to dip the breadsticks in too.

    Super bowl togo orders...
    Marcus F.

    Average rating is because this location is old and rundown. The good news is that they're opening up another Epic Wings and Things off W Valley Parkway. Even though I've lived in Escondido for 16 years I've never dined here before. But on a whim we decided to stop by after church. I guess the unfortunate part was that this was also super bowl Sunday. Apparently everyone in Escondido orders wings for the super bowl. This place was packed and they had a whole table stacked with togo orders. I was a little concerned that the wait would be too long, but it was normal. My boneless wings and bread sticks were great. But it's hard to get past how dingy this location is. Make sure you take your wings to go...

    Cashiers name !

    This has been my first time having Epic Wings for a couple years! Me & my husband decided to try…read morethis place since we were craving wings and have heard a lot of good things about their food. I'd have to say, this is one of the nicest locations I've ever been to (compared to the San Marcos location). Lots of ample parking in the plaza its located in. Very clean and spacious inside, with the bar right in the center of the restaurant. Service was spectacular! The gentleman at the counter was very helpful and patient with us while deciding what to order, and answered my questions very patiently. We decided to go with the Single 6-pc bone-in chicken combo with the Combo #2 to try their Epic Chicken Fries! We sat by the big tap room, which was really interesting. Food was served fairly fast, maybe only waited about 5-8 minutes. The chicken was so hot & fresh! Though in my opinion, the flavor of the garlic parmesan wings were lacking. It's a bit too dry for my liking. Though, the breadsticks and the fries were our favorites! We got lemon pepper chicken tenders in the fries, so I think the chicken tenders were the real winners here! Would I come back again? Maybe to try their beers on tap because they have a HUGE selection! I was surprised to see how much beer they carry at this location.

Perfect local spot if you wanna watch the game. I wish the menu had more options but my bf and I grabbed a wing and tender combo. The protein part of the meal was delicious. I never cared for the former restaurant but I've learned that the medium buffalo is the sauce to get. The blue cheese was great too. I don't really care for breadsticks in general but they were massive and the veggies tasted fresh. The restaurant was clean, the service was average (not bad nor exceptional) I'll be back, my experience was nothing like these one star reviews. If I find out they play the ufc fights I'll come back and give this place another star.

There is a nice indoor/outdoor vibe as there are some really big glass garage type windows that open (or close). The service has always been very prompt and friendly. I keep going back to their pizza's as they are quite good. I also suggest checking the special of the day as they usually have some pretty cool ones. They also have beer! Quite a few to be honest and if you aren't sure they are great at helping you figure out what works for you. For good food served by nice people in a clean and modern environment, this is the place!

First off, Im 100% sure the owner here uses ChatGPT to answer all negative yelp reviews. Any business owner worth their weight is able to think for themselves and use their brain to answer unless they're completely illiterate or too incompetent to think of a good response. Second off, are they even a brewery? I see cans and taps of their own beer, but looking into the business, I dont think they own a brewery at all. This is more along the lines of a taphouse/pub. THAT BEING SAID, the food is quite nice. I think the pizza is great and it feels like they make and roll their own dough which is respectable and ambitious for a random little spot like this. But It is quiet...too quiet. The beer tender would constantly hangout at the handicap table talking to any co-worker with free time on their hands for a long time. Seems like a cushy job honestly. I'm assuming they would hold conversation with customers, but unfortunately There were no customers... its a ghost town, and i left thinking, "This place is creepy." I'll just pick up and eat the pizza at home next time. I'm waiting to see what generic CHATGPT response the owner gives me.

There were many dining options on site, and ultimately we decided on One More Bite after seeing a cook making dumplings behind a glass wall, assuring us they were authentic and the dumplings were not from stores. The restaurant, with its modern Asian décor, was clean and quite spacious, with seating for 70+ guests. The friendly staff guided us to our table and brough water and menu right away. After browsing its extensive menu, we ordered the following dishes: Popcorn Fried Chicken: The chicken pieces were lightly battered, tasty, crispy, and mildly spicy. Pork Xiao Long Bao: This is the quintessential dish of any dumpling house and theirs was spot on. The delicate outer wrap was flawlessly steamed without any tearing, perfectly trapping the juicy broth inside. The filling was well seasoned and with very nice texture. Boiled Shrimp and Pork Dumplings: The outer layers were not soggy or overly boiled, retaining its firm but delicate texture. The filling was savory and a tad sweet. Shrimp and Pork Wonton Soup with Udon: The broth was light but flavorful, with a hint of pleasant white pepper aroma. The thick udon noodles were nicely al dente. The wontons, with savory filling, had slightly thick wraps. Rainbow Vegetable Pan Fried Dumplings: The colorful wraps really accentuated these dumplings. The outer layer had a nice firmness on top and a beautifully crispy bottom. The well minced filling was lightly seasoned and soft. Brown Sugar Rice Cakes: The rice cakes were quickly fried, creating a golden outer layer and pleasantly chewy inside. The drizzled brown sugar provided the sweet kick. Coconut Cream Balls: The fried outer layer was crunchy, and the runny coconut cream inside was not overly sweet. Overall, it was a very enjoyable lunch experience.
