The Wing King's Fried Hard wings are absolutely delicious.. They are a MUST try. Even if you're not hanging out the bar, roll through and order to go.. You won't be disappointed.. read more

These wings are PHENOMENAL!!! The service is also amazing. The guy that always takes my order is hilarious. I get the hot lemon pepper wings and they definitely have a kick. The fries and ranch are great too. This is my favorite wing spot. The only place that comes close is a place in Vegas, but I still think these are better. It's located in a bar that has a nice hangout spot in the back of it that is reminiscent of a backyard hangout. read more

Fried Hard - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Probably some of the best wings I've ever had. They're doing something very special at fried hard. This is one of the easiest five star reviews I'll ever give. Great food, great customer service and just an overall great experience. Food: the wings are literally fried to perfection. I love my wings crispy or extra crispy so this is my type of establishment. The wings are full of flavor. Every single bite was simply amazing. Also, the wings are huge. I was full by the sixth or seventh wing. I normally always finish my 10 wing combo but they gave so much fries and the wings like I said we're really big so I was fooled by number six or seven. The Kool-Aid was amazing. The customer service here is top-notch. Everyone here is super friendly. I can't remember the ladies name, but she was a white lady and she was so nice and friendly and pretty funny as well. She took my order and it came out quickly. Best customer service I really wish I remembered her name because she did such an outstanding job. Again, this is an easy five star review if you're in the area stop on in and support a local business and try some amazing wings! Memphis, Tennessee, Project Pat and Young Dolph would be proud and the whole Three 6 Mafia! Memphis tennnnnnnn read more

I am all about that food life, and yes, I totally traveled from Vegas to San Antonio on a turn around flight just for these wings! Seriously, the whole vibe was on point: the music was jamming , the service was great (very personable and the owner got jokes for days), and don't even get me started on the Kool-Aid and lemon pepper hot wings - pure ! It was an absolute feast for the senses. You *have* to try these if you're live in Texas or are ever in. town! There's a bar that this spot is connected to and I enjoyed sipping and sitting on the patio people watching and catching the vibes from surrounding bars. You can totally bar hop in this neat little cozy area. Meet me there, don't beat me there.. You're welcome cause you'll be glad you listened. read more

The wings here are phenomenal. They are crispy yet drenched in sauce. I like that they toss the carrots and celery in the sauce too. You go in the bar, order at a kiosk, and get a buzzer. The food comes out piping hot. I may even say these are the best wings I've had in San Antonio. read more

Fried Hard - Sweet chili wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Hands down the best wings in San Antonio. They won awards from SA current but most people don't take SA publication about good seriously. But this is one that the Current got right. The buffalo hot is a big jump from their buffalo mild but I'm telling you the HOT is the way to go with lemon pepper. It's located inside in the back of the bar through a small window next to the pool table. There will be a line so you can't miss it. Services always great, always kind, and always showing love. This is hard 5! read more

Fried Hard - Buffalo hot lemon pepper wings. - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

My new favorite wing spot in San Antonio. I've never had Memphis wings (and frankly I still don't know what the difference is) but they are amazing!!! The wings are crispy, crunchy, and flavorful. They are on the smaller side which I actually prefer, because you get a better texture and crunch-to-meat ratio. I think bigger wings can get a little chewy. I also love the location inside Three Star Bar so you can enjoy a drink and the vibe while you eat your wings. Pro tip- Wednesdays are dollar wing day! read more

If I could give this a 4.5, I would. The ambiance isn't anything special. It's inside of a bar. The seating inside is limited, but they have outside seating as well. You go to the back of the bar and order at a kiosk. They give you a buzzer to come pick up your food when it is done. The people working were nice. The food for me took a little longer than I expected, but it was nice and fresh. We got 20 wings and a large waffles with some ranch on the side. Buffalo sauce was tasty. It reminded me of a hooters sauce actually, but I could tell it was still made in house. The honey gold was really good too. Not too sweet. The waffle fries were amazing, so crunchy and fresh. I loved dipping them in ranch. My only qualm with the food was that the wings were little and barely had meat on them. I tend to like bigger meatier wings, so this is just something to be aware of if you tend to like meatier wings like I do. read more

I've heard the "best wings in the city" commentary. I've participated in it. As a transplant, I'm looking for more than fancy named sauces and wings on steroids. A bigger wing ain't a good wing and sauces are supposed to complement the wing. I'm looking for chicken that's seasoned & fried right before it's drowning in sauce. I'm looking for regular sized wing parts (I prefer flats but if it's done right, I'll love the drum almost as much). Now I've had some decent wings here and I've had some I've named the best until I tasted better. But when I heard "Memphis" style wings, I rubbernecked "Mane, say what, now?" and I'm not from Memphis (I lived there briefly 10 years ago). If you've ever been to Memphis, you can say what you want about it (I loved my time there & I've reviewed almost everywhere I've eaten) but you can't say the food isn't good. It's better than good, it's great. These. Wings. Are. No. Exception! Yeah, so we headed downtown to see what's up because, I was tired of not being in the number. Silently, I was hoping to not be disappointed. First, this business has no storefront of its own. I hate I didn't grab a picture but it's a renovated home that is a separate business with tables out front and covered ones in the back. Fried Hard is in the back of the house. Last night was a good night to eat outside. If we'd planned to stay the tables in the back with the screens would have been ideal even with the temps dropping. We ordered online but they are clear - they will not start preparation of your order until you arrive and pick up your order. This is because they want you to receive the freshest product. I'm not mad at that. So, expect to wait and figure in longer waits if they're super busy. We ordered shortly after 8pm (2 6 pc honey gold, a large seasoned fry to share). Got there around 830pm. I was able to meet by two people, a young woman & a young man who were pleasant. I got to chat it up with him (not sure if he's the owner but he was definitely the cook) and told him I heard good things and that when I heard Memphis I came to see if this was really going to represent. We jokingly chatted that since I knew what I should be getting, he was no doubt bringing it! :). My order was ready in just over 15 (honestly, it was a good night, I really don't know how long it took, but it wasn't too much longer than that). I promised them if this is good, I'm spreading the word. I was given a complimentary cup of blue raspberry kool aid. I gave that to my partner because i don't do sugar drinks. I grabbed the order and we headed back home. Listen, the whole way home I'm wondering why this bag is so heavy. I mean heavier than what I thought our order would weigh. When I got home I saw why. There were a few extra wings (it was appreciated) but it was those chunks of fresh carrots & celery swimming in that sauce with the wings. Chunks of veggies and I wasn't mad at it. I like that both veggies were there. There was no either or choice or invisible veggies lol. I like both celery & carrots). The wings. The wings were everything they were hyped up to be and everything they were supposed to be. Memphis was represented!!! Whether you agree or not, is on you. But what you cannot say is that these wings weren't fried hard and delicious. Cooked to perfection. Not wings on steroids. Not poorly seasoned wings over compensated with sauce. Properly prepared delicious wings. My partner who knows how I am about eating my fries first because u like them hot, noticed I was so focused on the wings the fries had hardly been touched. That's a good sign, because I ALWAYS eat & finish my fries first. The wings were that good. I agree with the restaurant, if you haven't had the sauces, start with the honey gold. I'm down to try them all. The fries were a tad bit over seasoned for me (I'm prefer a light seasoning) but he had no complaints. I pulled mine from the bottom. And I know I told you I don't do sugar drinks, I remember what kool-aid is supposed to taste like but I took a sip and of course, they got that right too!!! Overall, they're the real deal whether you're looking for a taste of Memphis or just some very well done wings perfectly executed. The only thing I'd do differently is order all flats if allowed. read more

If you're looking for wings that actually live up to the hype, stop scrolling. I just had a basket that I'm pretty sure changed my DNA. Here is the breakdown: The Sauce Game: I tried the Memphis Bold & Lemon Pepper (wet) and it was the perfect balance. It wasn't just heat for the sake of heat; it had depth, tang, and just enough stickiness to make you want to lick your fingers (no regrets). Size Matters: These weren't those sad, tiny "pigeon wings" you get at some sports bars. These were meaty, high-quality flats and drums that actually felt like a meal. Bottom Line: Most places pick two: crispy, saucy, or juicy. This place managed to hit the trifecta. If you haven't been here yet, you're officially missing out on the best wings in town. read more

Stupid good wings with genuine customer service. The wet hot lemon pepper blew my face off with flavor and was just the right about of heat. Putting the carrots under the wings to collect all the sauce?! Genius work. I wish these wonderful folks all the success in the world and will definitely be back. read more

Fried Hard - Lemon pepper hot! - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

These wings are super crispy, fresh, and flavorful! From the time we ordered them to the time we got them they did take quite long but we were told that the breaded ones are a different process and do take longer. Nonetheless, they were super hot definitely given to us fresh out of the oil. They came with some different sauces but honestly I prefer them dry because they were so good and the meat was juicy and perfect! They are located inside of a bar so it can be a bit noisy in the event you planned on eating there. The bar does have an outdoor patio where you can sit also. Cool hang out spot to eat wings and have a beer. read more

Fried Hard - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The service at Fried Hard was amazing! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel welcome. One of the highlights was getting to sample multiple sauces before ordering--such a nice touch that helped us pick the perfect flavor. My husband and I are proud Memphians and North Mississippians, so when we saw Honey Gold sauce on the menu, we knew we had to try it--and it did not disappoint! The wings were perfectly cooked, full of flavor, and the seasoned waffle fries were just as impressive. Eating here honestly made us feel like we were back home. Great food, friendly service, and a laid-back vibe. Thanks, Fried Hard, for bringing a little taste of Memphis to San Antonio. We'll definitely be back! read more

Some of the best wings I've ever had, and the Kool-Aid was on point! We were in San Antonio visiting SeaWorld and found this wing shop near our Airbnb. It's connected to a bar, so it's probably not the most kid-friendly spot, but they were incredibly welcoming to us and our kids. (The bar was honestly pretty chill too) Our order was ready in no time, and the customer service was top-notch from both the guy and lady who were running the place. The guy said he's from Memphis, and I believe it, because he knows how to make wings y'all. We enjoyed the outdoor seating area while we waited, which had a projector playing movies and a cornhole setup, adding to the chill vibe. As for the wings, we tried the Buffalo, Memphis Bold, and Honey Gold sauces (don't quote me on the exact names) each one was amazing! The Buffalo and Memphis Bold had the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming. The fries were spot on, and that Kool-Aid finished everything up perfectly. This place is a hidden gem (literally), and we'll definitely be coming back next time we're in town! When you first come up to the building, follow the sidewalk around back. read more

I can't comment on the food or ambiance, but the customer service was disappointing. We walked in with our six-year-old, unaware this was more of a bar, and were immediately told--quite abruptly--that no minors were allowed. I even asked about ordering outside, but the response was still very intense. I completely understand the policy, but a kinder, more tactful delivery would have made a big difference. read more

Amazing food and quick service! The portions are very generous and the kool-aid brought me back to when I was a kid. Ten out of ten would recommend! read more

Fried Hard - Memphis bold hot - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I can't even describe it. Every flavor. Every time. I go out of my way to get them. Best wings in SA.

I've had many wings from the east coast, many wings from the west coast but Fried Hard knocks them all out of the water. Start of with the most charming owner who you can tell is incredibly passionate about food and wings and add the fact that you're in the always cool Three Star Bar and you know you're in for a good time. Now to the wings - as the name suggests they are fried hard and boy oh boy does that result in a perfectly crispy (and somehow still juicy) wing. The seasonings/flavors you can get are all good but I've got a special place in my heart for the Memphis Bold - sweet, tangy, and a nice heat that grows on you the more you eat *chef's kiss*. Also neat, the standard celery and carrots are tossed in the same seasoning/sauces as your wings which is the cherry on top. I'll definitely be going back many a times to indulge! read more

The wings from here are delicious! It's inside the Three Star Bar! I tried a chili lime dry rub and my gf had the buffalo ranch sauce! Garlic parm seasoned fries went harder than a diamond turtle shell. Ordering is easy from a tablet kiosk (Luckily for those of you with social anxiety! HA!) All orders are made fresh so be patient and have a drink and conversation while you wait! Maybe I'll see you there when I try all their other flavors soon! read more

Simply the best wings you'll ever have. Very cool spot the service is always excellent. Appreciated how they make everything fresh the quality (and love) is noticeable. read more
