Really bland food. If you like elementary cafeteria food this is the place for you. Tried it twice and won't go back.

As a fried chicken lover, I had to give this spot a try while visiting the area. I called in my…read moreorder about 15 mins ahead. I kept it simple and went with a 6 piece while wing plate with okra instead of fries. Total around $15. The food looked great. Unfortunately, I wasn't super impressed by the wings or okra. They gave a nice amount of okra but next time I'll ask them to cook it crisper. The wings lacked flavor and they were small. But they did throw in one extra wing! The main saving grace is the house hot sauce that came with it. It's so good! I would buy it by the bottle of I could. Also they had a delicious peach punch. Also, the service was good. The young man at the counter, Kaleb, was so kind. He encouraged my photos and patiently answered questions that I had. They had several available seats. But like me, most patrons were ordering to go. All in all... I would try them again. With a name like Wing City, I must give the flavored wings a try. Based on that hot sauce alone, I'm sure their sauce game is impressive.

Okay the wings were good but I didn't order 40 wings and that's what I got!…read more I ordered 10 wings and 2 orders of chicken fried rice. Instead of them letting me know they ran out, they just sent me 40 wings. You can't just send people the wrong food without an explanation. I'm south Asian and needed some rice yesterday. But if you want to eat whatever they want to give you, this is the place for you lol. The lemon pepper wings were really good though. These wings are mini sized. Each wing has two bites in them. I liked it because it was easy to finish 10 of them. If that's not your thing, skip this place.

My guy and I visited one afternoon recently. We live on the opposite area of town but had read…read more great reviews so we decided to visit for ourselves. Upon entering, we told Mr Oli (the owner) that it was our first visit. Not only did he explain the menu in great detail to us, but he gave us samples of the chicken salad, lamb and baklava while we made our decision on what we were ordering. I had my mind set on the chicken kabobs, but changed after he showed me a plated salmon meal. It was cooked just as I like it so I ordered one for myself. My guy, who isn't big on trying new things, opted for the lemon pepper wings and fries combo. However, he did agree to try the gyro meal on our next visit. We also ordered a special dessert Mr Oli told us was a secret recipe from his wife that could only be found at his restaurant. I was excited to try it! A short time later, our food was brought to our table by Mr Oli. My salmon was cooked to perfection and seasoned just right. The salad was fresh and the dressing complemented it well. The pita bread was served warm and the hummus was creamy and flavorful. My guy enjoyed his wings and said that he could taste the special touch Mr Oli put on them. The dessert was something special. Crispy, and fried golden with a unique taste, it definitely was something we would order again on our next visit. It wasn't sweet but met the needs of a sweet tooth calling. If that makes any sense, lol. The creamy cheese filling reminded me of a decadent cheesecake. The ambiance gave quaint neighborhood eatery. As we sat and waited on our food, we saw regulars come in and order. They chatted with Mr Oli as he prepared their orders. He's super friendly and I want to see his business thrive. Great customer service, delicious, healthy food at comparable prices makes for a 5 star review. I can't wait to return for the chicken kabobs!

She was quirky, fun, and knew the menu! The food was great, it was exactly the way you want these classics to taste. It was fresh, flavorful, and the prices per portion were just right. The house Greek salad dressing was so good I would drink it if I could. I wish I could buy it or find a recipe, I would eat salad every meal. The restaurant is historic and has all the vibes of a classic eatery that make you feel good. We loved it, best meal I've had in a long while. In a sea full of Sysco restaurants, this place and its staff... stand out. Thank you!

Fortunately, this is a big restaurant and I had reservations! The decor in here is very old chic. It reminded me of my dad's favorite Italian restaurant in South Philly. He would love it here. We were seated fairly quick and provided with menus including a summer cocktail menu. I got a peach martini which was fabulous. Hubby ordered a banana breeze cocktail but they were out of banana liquor. He was bummed. Instead he got the strawberry Long Island iced tea. I tasted it and it was really good. We ordered our entrees which came with a salad or gumbo. I got the gumbo. It was sooo good. I enjoyed every bite. For my entree I got the Texas special which has the Greek steak, chicken and the seafood au gratin. All of it was delicious. I loved everything. Highly recommend especially if you want to try a little of everything. Of course, we had to get dessert. I had to try the baklava cheesecake since that seemed to be popular. Hubby got the chocolate almond pie. Hubby's was really really good. Mine was interesting for sure. Hubby tried it and said it tasted like pumpkin and he was right! Normally I love pumpkin but I didn't love this. It was okay. I just wouldn't get it again. Service was great. Lots of people coming around refilling drinks, bringing food, taking away plates, etc. we will be back for sure!

When I got here I groaned a little because there was a long line and I was hungry. However, the line moved quickly and I got my meal in record time. Ordering was easy and the people up front were super nice. Did I mention the food came out quick? It was just as delicious as it was quick. I went with an order of the Asian zing wings. They were sauced up the way I like it and the chicken itself was crispy and juicy. The sauce itself was unique and bold. I had a spoon to eat the leftover sauce on my to-go container. A coworker of mine had the Philly. While I didn't try it I can verify that based off their reaction that it was incredible. There's not many tables to eat here, as this seems more of the place to grab a lunch to go. I see more visits in my future!
