It's a lil hole in the wall with a scent of YUMMY chicken before you find the door. I find an entrance from following the scent instead of looking up and reading the GIANT SIGN. Front door locked and so, but I SMELL CHICKEN. I scurry round back. I knock on the back gate and, "Excuse me, I found y'all on yelp, I wanna try yo chicken", the chef explained it was a dangerous area and he doesn't leave doors unlocked after nightfall. Pacing slowly towards the door. I understand completely but Colfax not scaring me from trying this Famous Chicken. He took my order, said 15-20 minutes so Ill go back after 25 make sure I'm not standing around while they're still seasoning. I waited patiently IN MY CAR WITH THE DOORS LOCKED as I enjoyed a car chase followed by 3 and some cop cars. I go back after waiting, and staking out the premises. Told him I'd leave him a review and got the heck outta dodge, RIGHT before they started shooting a few streets over. But feel me I'm worried bout this chicken so I ain't pay no mind to activity I hear 24/7 on the daily back home in Cali. When I got back to my place of Grub and Zen I took my first bite and by the time I looked down... that had been the first time in years I I CLEANED the meat off ANY CHICKEN bone. 20 TRADITIONAL WINGS FOR $24. And they were FIIIREEE. Yes, yes they were. I always take pictures of my food but by time I thought to, the bones looked like they were ready for Choo Ba'ak or Famidihana. That chicken was bomb A F and I'd definitely risk my life to go and get more. Don't get me wrong horrible area down to homelessness, gang activity, prostitution, police chases, half naked crack heads screaming into the street AND MOOOORE. If you ain't scared of a little action, go get some of that chicken. Then lmk what crazy stuff you seen while waiting . If yous scary, order otp and pick up yo food before 5:30 pm because the sun goes Night Night at 6. This place caters to ALL chicken lovers, BUT IF YOU LIKE YOU WINGS a little CRUNCHY like me ASK FOR WELL DONE. read more

I'm from Buffalo so I was on the hunt for some wings that I could be happy with lol. This place is the one! Anytime I'm in the area they're on my mind. The service was very quick and the owner is from Buffalo that was dope to know. It's not any place to eat inside but it's still a vibe. read more

I ordered through DoorDash as I did try to go there once to order and takeout but not the best spot on Colfax and just street parking. I was excited to try the wings! We got two sauces - Jamaican Jerk and hot buffalo. The wings were great! Crisp outside and juicy inside. The Buffalo is buffalo. The Jamaican jerk was packed full of flavor. It was sweeter than it was spicy which I wasn't expecting. The cheesesteak sandwich was basic and filling. I did order special instructions for the cheeseburger (no mayo/sauce) but it did come on the burger. I'd definitely order again for the wings! read more

The wings are cooked perfectly. The regular buffalo has a nice spice to it and the bourbon sauce was really good too. If you like wings I would highly recommend this over junk like BWWs or WINGSTOP. read more

Certainly a sketchy part of Denver but the wings and shrimp popcorn are standard, but delicious. Fries are pretty clearly just thrown in from a freezer bag but I'm not mad at it. The owner is a nice older gentleman, working the cash register and the fryer. read more

You won't find better wings in Denver, period. I've spent stupid amounts of money on every flavor available, and I've never been let down. P.S. Korean Glaze is THE hottest. For those of you who like heat. read more

Okay I know, I'm from Buffalo, so my chicken wing standards, are high, but wow these wings were very very disappointing. I ordered 15 wings half mango habanero half golden bbq. I got my wings and I must say, they just looked undercooked. They weren't crispy, and when I bit into it, it was mushy and there was no crunch to it. Flavor wise they are very very bland. If I order mango habanero, I expect to be sweating at bare minimum. These tasted like they had some honey and red pepper flakes. There was absolutely no mango flavor and the heat was mild at best The golden bbq was just as bland. Almost no bbq flavor with a mild honey after taste. My friend also ordered wings and he got the jamaican jerk. It tasted like literal vinegar, and had no hint of actual flavor or spice. Needless to say after I got home, I had to re-cook and re-sauce my wings. Either way my product tasted great, but I will not be ordering from here anytime soon! Pic below is my wings after I recooked them read more

Well, it's unfortunate that this restaurant chose to close early tonight and cancel my $30 food order instead of just fulfilling it like they're supposed to. My order went in well before 10pm, and, on the profile of this restaurant, it clearly says they don't close until 10:30pm. Sooo unfortunate, because with what they had on their menu, and their proximity to my home, they could've easily become my favorite delivery spot. Instead, they just lost what could've been a regular customer. Maybe they'll think twice about closing their kitchen early next time. Unfortunately for me, there won't be a next time. I take customer service (and my lack of other food choices at 9:45 on a Monday night) very seriously. read more

Ordered a 15 piece from Uber eats, garlic parm and hot buffalo. Overall was a fan of the flavors! Got about 6 wings in and tasted something funny. Got almost a rotten egg/fish taste in my mouth. I cracked open another one thinking it might be the garlic flavor but it definitely was either an undercooked/expired wing. I'm not a very picky eater but now I don't want to touch the rest of the order. I get it shit happens, but raw chicken is gonna be a no from me dog. Like I said the flavors weren't bad, but that one bite left a bad taste in not my mouth but my stomach. read more

I got the wings on a whim. I ordered online and went to pick it up. The GPS took me to the back of the building and I thought that i was in the wrong place. However, the pickup is on the back but I didn't know until I got to the front door and saw the sign. However, the gentleman was nice and gave me my order. The wings and fries were good and hot because they'd just been cooked. I enjoy fresh fries and wings. read more

Based on other reviews, my love for wings and the ease of reaching this location, I really wanted to enjoy this establishment. I hesitated leaving a review after the first visit thinking maybe it just needed to grow on me, but after a second visit, I thought it time to leave a review. First visit: Wings (mild sauce) - Tasty seasoned fries and a great price .The wings were okay and saucy but not my most favorite wings. Second visit: Philly steak: Tasty seasoned fries. Couldn't put my finger on what was in it the sandwich that tasted weird, but after eating half, I just couldn't eat any more and had to toss it. Banana pudding: Hands down, terrible. Instant banana pudding with bananas and Nilla wafers sprinkled on top for $3.25. This is not banana pudding. Even the most simple of banana pudding recipes call for layering the bananas and wafers so that the flavors blend together. As others mentioned in their reviews, there is no where to sit. This is an order and take out establishment. There are a few sketchy businesses next door, so it's probably best to wait inside -- it usually takes them no more than 10 minutes to whip up an order. read more

Famous Buffalo Wings & Things - Banana pudding....hmm...bananas & cookies not layered in for flavor, just placed on top of the instant pudding. Not a winner. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Denver, Colorado

I am not sure if it is a good thing I discovered this place or not. It seems as if I may be keeping them in business when it comes to all future wing cravings. I was at a friends house and they got several different kinds of wings from here and brought them home. We tried hot, asian chili and honey BBQ. I honestly haven't had a better wing in Denver yet! When you order wings to go they tend to get soggy in the packaging. These were cooked perfectly and still crispy when they arrived at the house. The wings weren't weird, like some you find around town that aren't cooked well enough or have feather hairs still attached. That may sound weird, but I am PICKY about my chicken friends. So take my word for it, this place is not clucking around when it comes to serving up delicious hot wings. They were generously sauced, packaged and delivered straight into my belly with pure satisfaction. They also have good fries that are battered and flash fried. I am sure they have other "things" but this was all we got and we were happy as can be. It is workth mentioning that they are two blocks from another wing joint with an oddly similar name, so make sure you know where you are going. Haven't tried the other one yet, but I would say my relationship status is now "taken." YUM. God here. That is all. read more

First time trying them out am really satisfied everything was just good there wings are cook to perfection and there actually have flavor to it I also order there cheese burgers was great we had it delivered and the food arrived in perfect condition witch really amazing know this days u can't even get it in good condition there always something rong . read more

Famous Buffalo Wings & Things - First time trying them out we like what we got will keep ordering here fore sure - Chicken Wings Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Ordered delivery and it arrived at really quick. The wings were super saucy and delicious. I would definitely order from her again.

SO worth 15 minute wait! found my new FAVORITE wing place on Colfax! I am def a wings kinda girl. I am also kinda picky... FBWT's wings are FRESH, crispy and oh the sauces are powerful in flavor and spice. GREAT balance! Excellent WINGS! This is a pick up and take out place. There is no place to sit, but it was awesome picking up the wings and getting home to them being so crispy and perfect. I will be back! read more

This chicken wings is flavorful. They have different flavors of chicken wings which absolutely fantastic. The chickens were well-cooked, juicy and tender too. I like the Honey BBQ wings and Buffalo wings. The flavor is truly spot on. Great selection of food and amazing service. read more

I've been following this chef for 25yrs. He truly had the best middle eastern food I've ever had. Has had N.Y. style pizza as well. His chicken wings are cooked to perfection. I only go here for wings. read more

Ordered a honey bbq wing and 2pc fish plate. I hate I didn't take pictures but the food is good. This was my furan time in Denver and I hope to be back soon to try other items on the menu. Great option for some quick food but not fast food. Delivered to my hotels front desk as expected. read more

First time going. Decided to go because it was the only place nearby, at that moment. Ordered, arrived and there were some sketchy people outside of the establishment. I wasn't too thrilled about picking up from them. I received my order, went home (20 minute ride), decided to get one of the four flavors that I chose. Each and every single wing was as delicious as if they were freshly fried. Absolutely no complaint about the wings. I will be going again when I'm in the area. read more

I drive all the way from Golden to get myself some wings from here! I personally get the Buffalo Hot and they're perfectly sauced, hot but not overwhelming and cooked to perfection. The food always seems to be ready even earlier if not right on time as quoted. Owner is very friendly. Looking forward to trying more from their menu. read more

I love the wings and fries here! The wings are perfect, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, and there are several different types of sauces to chose on your wings. I am picky about wings, and many other things for that matter, and these are the best wings I've had much less the best in Denver for sure. Next, I'm also picky about fries (I like them crispy, not soggy, with some potato left inside) and they also have some of the best fries too! The prices are good and they deliver too. This is why they only get four out of five stars....you can never get them to answer the phone so your left with ordering online or just walking in. The last time I ordered online though, I had waited over an hour for my delivery so I was calling to find out what was going on and I never got though. Order was delivered 1 hr 40 min after I placed the order. Turns out they were so busy they couldn't handle the orders. Tonight I tried to order some wings about 15 min before close and couldn't get through. So ordered online and they didn't receive the order until 36 sec after close. Ah well. read more

I have ordered from this place for years, without any issues. Tonight though that changed. We ordered five wing meals for five different people. My kids of course started eating before I did, But when I started eating I bit into a wing and immediately could tell it was rotten. I then proceeded to investigate all of our meals and found rotten wings in each one. They seem to have been mixed in with the good wings because there was never more than three bad wings in a meal. I drove all the way across town to take them back to the store to have the cook act like I was crazy. The fact that he couldn't even admit that it was a possibility that there was something wrong with his food was mind-boggling. He did tell me how he spends half an hour each day washing his chicken. And now I have three kids who might end up with food poisoning because they had already eaten some of the rotten wings. And one of my kids just had surgery so vomiting is a huge risk for his stitches right now. Uber Eats recommended reporting the restaurant to the Health Department so I will be doing that as well. read more

As Western New York natives, we're a *smidge* critical of chicken wings. Since moving to Denver, it's been hard to find good wings. This place was recommended by a fellow NY expat and is a godsend. We're out of their delivery zone, but it's worth the effort to drive and pick them up. They're located in a mildly sketchy strip of businesses, but not sketchy enough that it should stop you from trying them out. ...... if only they made garbage plates. read more

Ordered delivery via Eat24. Was pretty excited to try it, to be honest. Well, after 90 minutes and no food, I contact eat24 who then contact these jokers. Apparently, I am out of the delivery zone THEY set with Eat24. Instead of letting anyone know this, they just didn't make my order and didn't tell anyone. 90 minutes later and I'm starving and pissed off. I will never, ever come back. Learn how to treat new customers. read more

This is by far my favorite wing place, the owner is really nice, the wings & fries are amazing. Especially the garlic Parmesan wings. Prices are fair & food is quality. 100cx better than any other wing place. Would give 10000 stars if I could. read more

I ordered the catfish nuggets and the food was pretty good. Nicely spiced and cooked just right. Maybe a little hint of old fry oil but, for the most part, the food was good. Here's the rub -- it is very dirty in this restaurant. Every single surface is sticky and greasy -- even the pad to pay them was gross and I was resistant to use my finger to sign the credit bill. While I waited for my order, I couldn't help but notice the level of dirt and grime everywhere. They seriously need to do a top-to-bottom THOROUGH clean. I know this business is frying a lot so that makes it harder but REALLY? Clean your restaurant!! It wasn't because they were too busy either. People were just sitting around checking their social media when I arrived. read more

This is great food. We each got a Gyros sandwich, which comes with fries, and shared 8 teriyaki pineapple wings. The gyros was one of the best I've ever had, and the fries are seasoned well. The wings are crispy and have great flavoring. The only reasons I took one star off are: our sandwiches came with a can of pop (according to the menu) and they didn't give them to us, and I asked for my gyros sauce on the side & they gave me no sauce. Really good food though, and it was prepared quickly. UPDATE: The business owner, Aseel, sent me a private message 2 full days after my order and remembered exactly who I was. He thanked me for my business and apologized for the mistake (my sauce was in another bag & usually customers choose their own soda). I am impressed that he remembered me and was so polite. Definitely give this place a try! read more

I've been here a couple of times now and I've tried everything but the wings. I've had a gyro and the catfish. Both were actually pretty good. This is a very small place and they cook everything to order. The lamb for the gyro was seasoned well. The sauce was bland and perhaps came out of a jar. The catfish was cooked to Perfection and also seasoned well. Prices are in line. Can't wait to actually try the wings. read more

I tried this place most recently using Uber eats,well unfortunately they screwed my order up. I ordered a Gold Star link with fries and a soda,and gizzards. I got a Philly cheese sandwich and the gizzards. Right. Well Uber took the blame and refunded my money but the restaurant was at fault. It was early on a Saturday evening so I can't imagine them running out of links. By the way either the Philly was good or I was just starving. read more

We actually thought we were ordering from a different wings restaurant and I'm not disappointed we ended up at Famous Buffalo Wings & Things. The wings were well sauced, crispy on the outside and tender inside. We also ordered a couple different items like gizzards and a gyro. I will say, stick with the wings because this is really where this restaurant excels. Give this little place a shot! read more

Came here because of the reviews I saw on yelp but to be quite honest, I don't understand the hype at all. When I went, the whole experience was just so sketchy and I'll leave it at that. To each their own, but in my opinion I thought the wings were below average. read more

Great, *tiny*, hole-in-the-wall, take-out wing joint. While waiting for my wings to finish, all I really heard was the sound of the fryer doing its thing. The "3X Hot" wasn't as hot as I hoped. It was something like a thin Franks sauce with a lot of extra cayenne thrown in. They do have a quite a selection of wings, but they're mostly on the not-so-spicy side. Still, the wings were large, crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. I stood at the counter and had my wings there. Luckily, everyone else was getting food to go. If 2 or 3 other people had the same idea to eat there, it would have gotten pretty crowded. read more

Best wings I've had so far in Denver. Wings were crispy on the outside and the sauce was great. If you like spicy the xxxhot is the best option. Wasn't insane and had good flavor. Owner was super nice, will go back. read more

I don't know where to start. I'm proud to be the first review. Hopped on EAT24. Gave it a try. Ordered a cheese burger (yumsville), and wings (mild buffalo / garlic parmesan). Not only were they the best wings I've had in Denver, they were crispy coming to my door. GIVE THESE WINGS A SHOT! You'll be happy. read more

Live the chicken wings from here and so do all the people that I have delivered uber and postmates. The wait maybe long but is sire worth the wait. They aCtually are crunchy even delivered to your door. I don't know how they do it! Give them a try you will not regret it I promise. Thanks for the awesome chicken wings. Yum! read more

I have to preface this with thr fact that I'm from New York, and these are the best wings I've ever had. This hole in the wall is pretty much takeout only, they have a standing bar type table, but it's very cramped. If you are a wing freak like me then you need to try this place. They have so many flavors its ridiculous. I'm a more traditional buffalo hot kind of guy so i usually go back and forth between the "XXX" and the "sweet and sour hot". They are a good price, and if you get a combo their fries are seriously amazing, and you get a heaping portion. I highly recommend this place to anyone who loves wings. Their catfish nuggets are great too. They also have pretty much any fried side you can think of. *they fry everything in peanut oil, so if you're allergic I'm sorry, but if not this oil seems to give it a crisp unique taste. (Thankfully it does not taste like peanuts, I'm weird and don't like peanuts or peanut butter and their oil doesn't leave that taste) read more
