This is probably one of my favorite Korean Fried Chicken places. When I'm hanging out with friends/family and craving fried chicken, I usually bring up Hi Wings to see if they're up for it. My usual order is the Dark Meat Lover 18pc with lemon pepper, and then either sweet/spicy, sweet soy, honey dijon, or honey ginger. For the sides I do the pickled radish cause they go pretty well with each bite of chicken. You can't really go wrong with any flavor you choose. For the Dark Meat Lover, a "piece" is either a drumstick or half a thigh so you can imagine how much food 18 pieces is. Each one is fried to perfection and come out nice and juicy. They season it perfectly so each bite is full of flavor. In addition to this, I usually will order the Garlic Parm Tater Tots too. They give you a hefty amount of tots so there's plenty to go around. The fries version of this is also pretty bomb, but then again can you really go wrong with fried potatoes of any kind? read more

These are our favorite wings of all time! It's so good we make it a point to always eat at the restaurant because takeout just doesn't do it justice. The outside is this wonderful crispiness goodness and the insides are tender and juicy! The following sauces are our favorite - Jalapeno Mayo, honey garlic parmesan and peach habanero. Sweet and spicy used to be our favorite when they used to garnish it with nuts! Then nuts were replaced with sesame seeds. Last time we went, even the sesame seeds were gone. Still tasty but not as great as they used to be. Siracha bbq was okay. Garlic parmesan fries are heavenly! Get them! At this time, there's a 10% off offer if you check in on Yelp so make use of that while you can! I'm giving it 5 stars but do want to note that service is a hit or miss. The last few times service has been good but also have had instances where we got super slow service or they took down the wrong order. Although that's how we discovered the Jalapeno Mayo so can't be too upset! :) I would highly recommend checking this restaurant out for some great Korean wings that's different from the usual wing spots! read more

I'm a far cry from a fried chicken stan, but my significant other is an aficionado who would be perfectly happy eating wings for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Whenever one of his cravings hit, I'm happy to comply if Hi Wings is the destination. Their honey garlic parmesan sauce is *chef's kiss* because it strikes just the right salty-sweet balance. Hi Wings is also the rare spot where their to go orders stay fresh and crispy. A takeout marvel, I tell ya. read more

A must try if you're in the area for some good Korean fried chicken. Hi wings really nails the unique flavors. We tried the garlic honey Parmesan and the sweet chili flavors. Both of these flavors were SO good. The garlic honey Parmesan is a must try for sure. We also got the spicy mozzarella chicken plate. It was very good, but be warned some pieces were very spicy. Overall they still tasted great. The service was great and fast. Our waiter was also very nice and accommodating. You order online through your phone which allows you time to figure out exactly what you want. Overall a great Korean fried chicken spot and I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the Austin area. read more

Hi Wings is certainly, HI up there on my list of recommendations as far as chicken wings go. A great selection of various Korean styled chicken entrees as well as a selection of beers and sides. Along with a clean interior style with plenty of seating, grab a friend or come solo, either way you're getting great wings and that's always a win. The menu is broken down to starters, chicken entrees, sides, and wings that come either battered or plain. All are reasonably priced, and the entrees come with a great portion size so no worries on leaving wanting more. Now of course the wings, you can get them in either 5 or 10 counts and served with a sauce of your style. If you're looking for something stable I'd recommend the sweet and spicy or the honey garlic parm. As far as either battered or naked, that's up to users preference but all wings that I've tried they've come out meaty and juicy, they style that wing lovers want. Reasonably priced and sized, if you come hungry 10 is probably enough to fill you. If you're looking for something a little bit more unique I'd recommend looking at the Chicken Winner (entree) area. I'd go for the garlic lovers as it's as they say for any lovers of garlic with a nice blend of sweet and savory. Service has been consistently good. All the servers I've had are very nice and very well informed on what each entree entails if needed. If you're ever in the mood for chicken, 'wing' it on with all of your hunger. Austin/the world could always use more great chicken wing places. read more

If you like chicken wings skip the American usual spots and come here to try Korean fried chicken. If you've ever had Korean fried chicken you would know it's much superior. The coating is extra Krispy as the wings are double fried. The sauces while usually on the Asian spectrum do take on some familiar flavors. At Hi Wings they serve a variety of wing styles to suit your mood and allow you to change it up to keep each visit different . Whether you're felling the traditional battered wings or non-battered to all meat thighs and drums to whole chicken parts, they cover the whole Gambit. For lunch I recommend their combo deal. From $10-13, you choose your fried chicken style with selection of sauce(s) on or on the side, two sides, and a drink that has sweet tea as an option. The wings are quit sizable. Each table booth is partitioned with plexiglass for COVID protection , and as a courteous they provide a paper bag to store your mask while you eat. Very nice touch. Flatscreen TVs are spread out for sport viewing pleasure. read more

The wings are mid at best, the chicken itself is fine, but the sauces just aren't great. Tried lemon pepper and a Korean fc inspired sauce and another one I can't remember, but they were just not it. Mozzarella sticks and fries are fine. read more

After going 5 more times, I've decided that Hi Wings is amazing. Korean-style crispy chicken wings that are better than BonChon. I recommend the JUMBO BATTERED WINGS. Pick your sauce(s) from a list. The sweet & spicy sauce is so good (not that spicy at all). I also love the sweet soy sauce and the garlic parmesan sauce. The peach habanero sauce is interesting. It's been mild some days and VERY spicy other days so you may be in for a spice-level surprise if you get it. This place also has THE BEST FRIES in Austin. Get the garlic Parmesan fries. You won't regret it. It's all soooo crispy and juicy! The hot chicken with cheese dish was VERY yummy too (this one WAS spicy). I'll be back with friends. This is one place in Austin where I know I can get great food with no hassle (long lines, no parking) and support a family-owned business. P.S. Plenty of seating so it's a good place for big groups! read more

I give Hi Wings 5 stars because the customer service is great. I stopped in last night as it was my first time there. I placed my order to go. While I was there, it started to rain and the guy who took my order, walked me to my car so that I wouldn't get wet. On top of that, my wings were too too. All around, this was an awesome experience. read more

I got the soy wings. The flavor was good, but definitely didn't hit like the Korean wings I'm use to. The chicken wing itself was not good. There were thin bones I was mistaking for crispy chicken. I didn't like them. read more

My FAVORITE wings in Austin!!! I've never actually eaten inside, we usually order these wings online and then pick them up to eat at home with some UFC on. Hi- wings has never failed us. They consistently have been crispy and delicious every single time we've ordered them. They have so many cool unique flavors but our favs are : Honey garlic Parmesan, Peach Habanero, and of course, lemon pepper. The jalapeño mayo is a flavor my husband likes but I personally think it tastes like the taco deli green creamy salsa and I just don't like that flavor for a wing but you should still try it and decide for yourself. There is plenty of parking for this place since it's in a strip mall so it shares a huge parking lot with all the other stores. Overall, Hi-Wings is a 10/10. Yes it's a bit pricey but it is 1000% worth the price every single time! read more

This is the best KFC in the austin area and I've tried all of them! The breading is perfectly crispy and not too much. The meat itself is super tender and great quality, and seasoned so well. Our favorite flavors are the sweet soy and sweet & spicy. You also can't go wrong with the appetizers, especially the garlic Parmesan fries, fried mushroom and mozzarella sticks. Service is always super nice and helpful, there is never a wait and the food comes out quick. Would love if they also sold different drinks there like fruit or milk teas! read more

Craving Korean fried chicken? This is the place to be! Their dark meat combo was really tender and juicy and nicely fried on the outside. If you don't like breast, I would definitely go for this instead of the whole chicken! Sweet soy is my favorite seasoning here because of the combination of its sweet and salty flavors (more on the sweet side than other sauces) but the sweet and spicy was good also. This beats most other Korean fried chicken places I've ever tried with the crispy skin, juicy meat, and delicious sauces. read more

amazing, literally so good. hands down best korean fried chicken we've had in austin. garlic lovers chicken: 9.4/10 | meat and breading are amazing. only improvement could come from sauce flavor but that's objective garlic parm tots: 8.3/10 | these are consistently cooked; all are crispy on outside and soft on inside. flavor could be a bit better (kind of light). overall great value because there's a lot too so super solid hehe read more

Really amazing batter. Crisp even for takeout. (Great attention to packaging to preserve freshness!) Usually flavorful batter and succulent meat equals lots of grease and salt like a fast food fried chicken would be, but Hi Wings exceeds my expectation. The crunch is super flavorful, even when no sauce or dry rub involved. The meat is tender, the right amount of juice and saltiness. But you don't feel overwhelmed by the grease. Can easily eat lots of chicken. The sauces and dry rubs have unique flavors. Our favorite is the lemon pepper rub. The lemon sour is very forward but it works well with the basic salt and pepper flavor. Second favorite would be the green onion chicken, which basically is battered fried chicken with shredded green onions and horseradish/wasabi-based sauce. Get the sauce on the side so you can still get the crunch. This is for those who love bold, spicy, oniony taste. The green onions and the sauce cut the grease beautifully and enhance your sensitivity to the savory fried chicken! Oh the pickled radish here is pretty epic. The perfect sweet and sour proportion! The only thing that I find amiss is their never-existent salads. Why put them in the menu if you never have them available. But then I don't go here for salads. read more

Hi Wings - Green Onion Chicken & Dark Meat Lover Passion with lemon pepper. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Austin, Texas

After so many friends recommended us to try Hi Wings, I finally went ahead and ordered through Yelp this afternoon. The cooking time took a good 40 minutes (estimated time was 40-60 minutes on Yelp) but pick up was easy and fast once they sent out the "your order is ready!" notification. Staff recommended us to heat the fried chicken in the oven at 375 degrees for 5 minutes after we get home. I used an air fryer and set at 400 for 2 minutes and it came out perfectly crunchy and nice. The pickled radish was the perfect match for these fried chicken, balancing the greasiness with acidity. Yum. Since this is whole chicken and not just dark meat, some pieces can be a little dry. If you're all about juiciness then make sure to skip the whole chicken items. I actually never had traditional Korean fried chicken tossed in sauce when I visited Seoul last summer but did enjoy TongDak at 論峴蔘雞湯, will have to try those out at Hi Wings for our next visit. read more

Hi Wings - Korean fried chicken (whole). Pickled radish, jalapeno mayo, sirracha bbq. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Austin, Texas

Best Korean wings I've had by far in the state of Texas! The wings came out pretty quickly along with the other sides we ordered. The wings had a great crispy texture and just the right amount of sauce! My boyfriend and I ordered the soy garlic and the peach habanero which we both enjoyed. I ordered a side of pickled vegetables to clean my palette which was a nice compliment to the wings. The fries were plain and crisp but didn't take away from the flavors of the wings. The service was great! Our waiter was very attentive and very friendly. It was pretty dead when we came on a Thursday night but nevertheless the food was amazing and we both walked out knowing it wouldn't be our last visit!! read more

Really good food! Quality and taste were terrific. Very nice people. It's order through toast and get it delivered to table.

Hi Wings is one of my favorite Korean fried chicken spots in town! The owner and his wife are always there cooking. The one thing that sets this place apart from other Korean fried chicken places is the quality of their chicken and the batter also all the different sauces they have. (They make all their sauces IN HOUSE) You can choose to have the sauces on the side or tossed in it. (I prefer on the side) so you can get many different sauces! They are also affiliated with High Tunes Kareoke and can order their chicken there for delivery! I highly recommend this place! read more

It's been awhile since we dine in at Hi Wings. We've been ordering to-go for the last 5 months. Today, we dined in and were pleasantly surprised and pleased at the many improvements this restaurant made during the pandemic. Hi Wings is the first restaurant we see with the most precautions. Tables space far apart with dividers installed. Hand sanitizers at every tables. Face shield for waitress installed at each table. Paper bags given to customers to store masks. This is the most thoughtful idea so far. Loving it! We already love their food and now feel even safer dining in as well. read more

The Ruby's chicken was quite good. The portions are ginormous, I wish they had a smaller size. It was a bit soggy by the time I had it as it was takeout but I can imagine it being super crispy and hot if eaten fresh. The pickled radishes are great Fries were meh. Fine to get if you just want to snack on them, but not really worth the space imo. It is nice to cut through some of the fried chicken though. read more

This place is addictive! Call in for take out, or they're also available on one of the delivery apps. I get the sauce on the side, because I love how crispy the chicken is without the sauce. The habenero peach sauce is my favorite. Other people are a fan of the parmesen cheese which is dusted on the chicken skin. Definitely eat this when it's hot. read more

Wow! This is the best Korean Fried Chicken I've had anywhere! I'm a huge fan and this place exceeded my expectations! The whole chicken is perfect to share. You get 2 flavors and they chop it up into easy to eat pieces. The flavors are outstanding! Great savory chicken your mouth wIll love! I'm already planning on coming back soon! read more

We love the chicken here, especially when they offer a dark meat lover and their honey garlic parmesan is da bomb!

This is hands-down my favorite Korean fried chicken place of all time. Why? For one reason and one reason only: the honey garlic parmesan flavor. Ahh it's so good it visits me in my dreams sometimes. I'm not usually a dry rub kinda gal, but this flavor has me converted. I usually get a 10 piece wings order of half sweet & spicy, half honey garlic parm. Don't get me wrong, all the other factors are there too--the juicy and tender chicken, the right amount of crunch, and the other flavors are good too (I personally like sweet & spicy, but I know the sweet soy is also a fan favorite). If you're not convinced that a single flavor can make me fall in love with a restaurant, go try it out for yourself. Please. I'm begging you. I promise I was not paid to write this--it's just that good. read more

I just love their korean fried chicken! The chicken is juicy and crunchy even after a 15 minute roadtrip after picking up. The sauce is fantastically flavorful to boot. I appreciate that they have the pickled radishes that most fried chicken places in Korea offer. Eating here really brings back some memories from living in korea and I really appreciate them for it. read more

Hi Wings, more like MY WINGS. Seriously, no touchy. My wife introduced me to this place and it's seriously good. Always go bone-in wherever you go, get that extra juice and flavor each and every time. No offense to the boneless, still delicious but if you're a true wing lover, you'll know the difference. Hands down best Parmesan garlic fries in Austin. I've had several of the 'same' dish around town and nothing beats this for real. We had to get a second order, that's how good it was. When it comes to Korean style fried chicken, is it authentic, no. But does it satisfy? Yes. They don't have soju, but they have beer and that meets the standard halfway. Great food, I would easily recommend to friends of mine. read more

Great service. Great food. Great vibes. Didn't know where to eat. GF googled wings and came here. Definitely gonna travel back.
