Here's a natural 100+ word Yelp review you can use: Just Wing It is one of my favorite places to hang out when I want good food, cold drinks, and a fun atmosphere. It's a great spot to catch a game with friends or family, and there's always a good vibe whenever we stop by. The wings are always fresh, flavorful, and cooked just right with plenty of sauce options to choose from. The drinks are cold, the service is friendly, and the staff always makes us feel welcome. Whether you're stopping in to watch your favorite team, enjoy a meal, or just relax after a long day, this place is always a solid choice. If you're looking for great wings, excellent drinks, and a fun sports bar atmosphere, I definitely recommend checking out Just Wing It. We'll definitely be back. read more

Just Wing It's ambiance, food, and service are top tier! We always come by here for hangouts and honestly, it has not disappointed us. Our regular orders are the jalapeño poppers, wings (especially on Mondays since they're only 50 cents each), mango margaritas, garlic fries, and sweet potato fries! I love how the location is also in the Marketplace as it's become a routine to come here after watching film! read more

Service was lackluster. Drinks were mediocre. We came on a Sunday night and hostess was either busy or at the back. So we found the only semi-clean table that was empty and sat ourselves. This branch at the Marketplace was full of customers at every age level. After more than 20 minutes, the gal finally came to get our drink orders. Took another 20 minutes to get that served up. To be fair, the food order did come pretty quickly. The wings were decent but the service is a deal breaker for me. read more

I love love love the food here! I can't really think of anything I've tried here that I didn't like! There's something for everyone: great appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches and can't forget the wings! read more

Wing Wednesday! Cheap chicken. Only accessories I really liked were the honey bourbon which had a nice sweet taste and the lemon pepper. It can be a hit or miss. It was so oily last time we were here. My in-laws like the chili cheese fritos to start. We typically get the boneless chicken. It's a great place if you want to watch sports. Service depends. We came during condor/oilers watch parties so it was busy. read more

Do not order the Fish & Chips,, And dont try to mask it with Tarter sauce, the sauce is worse than the fish. It's a shame, the servers are great, but the food generally isn't great. read more

This place makes it hard to come back. I come often to give them another chance & I HATE leaving subpar reviews but have to be honest. This might be the final straw. Theres always just 1 bartender/server and they are always overwhelmed because it's impossible to give good service. Why not have 2-3 minimum??? It blows my mind how they operate. Service sucks, only because there's 1 person trying to please everyone. And the bar stinks like dirty dishwater. Not clean at all they are understaffed & mismanaged. Food is hit or miss with quality. Wings are small. read more

My wife and I come here every week - Krista's service is amazing! The bbq sauce over boneless wings is some of the best I've ever tasted! The beer mugs and beer are the coldest I've ever experienced! Oftentimes, the mug comes with the top half of beer an ice slush! Amazing!! The chicken salad is the best! read more

Our server Abby was amazing. She was super attentive and great with our kids. Very friendly, funny, and helpful. She told us about the different flavors and answered all our questions. The food was as good as bar food can be haha. Everything tasted good! The restaurant was clean and nice :) read more

Sorry to say, I did not enjoy my food from Just Wing It. This is only for the food, since it was a to-go order. The boneless wings were dry. I chose the lemon pepper sauce, which was incredibly salty. My other sauce was honey bourbon, which tasted like neither. I didn't like anything from my order. read more

Why haven't I tried this place before!! We came in for Condors/Oilers finals watch party and we walked in a were greeted immediately and sat right away! Our server had to be one of the best servers I've had in an overly crowded sports bar setting! She was so patient with us about questions and let us know all the happy hour specials! The place was packed and she was busy but checked on us and treated us like we were her only table! We started off with a few drinks and for happy hour they had amazing prices. My beers were perfectly cold! We ordered the bacon nacho fries and they were delicious. Next we order around 50 wings all different flavors but mine were buffalo and lemon pepper! Bit fried crispy with lots of flavor- just how I like them! As an added bounds it was wing Wednesday so they were only $.79 each!! Can't beat that! Restaurant had an amazing vibe for the game and wall to wall TVs!! Just an awesome place! Lucky to have this place! Can't wait to back! Also our amazing server was Kaitlin!! Can say enough good things about our experience here!! Owners should be very proud! read more

Absolutely horrible! At the very first Thursday Night Fall Concert (10/2/25), there was a fight inside during the Niners/Rams game. The couple involved in the fight eventually ended up outside, yelling, cursing and acting like idiots. This behavior occurred near a lot of children and a lot of other people who were trying to enjoy the concert. The lady involved was overly intoxicated, which is the fault of the restaurant! You out to be ashamed of yourself! The same couple ended up fist fighting in the parking lot about 15 min later and then BPD showed up. The Market Place security officers did absolutely nothing...just stood there and watched like nothing was happening. This is an embarrassment to the owners and managers of Just Wing It and a disservice to the crowd of people trying to have a good time. If I could give -1 stars, I would! read more

They rip you off if ur drunk or seem to be drinking to much but I don't think it's on the owner it's on two individuals that work there they feel like they've been there long enough to not get in trouble but It's not fair and if you judge them they talk back and make you think you're stupid but when you ask them to re-check the tab to make sure the math is right then they get agitated. And then they talk back to you and then make you feel stupid for asking them to re-check the tab and then though the math is wrong because numbers don't lie. They Try to make you feel insignificant but that's not the case just be careful coming to this establishment you never know snakes are in the grass.... read more

Went there with some friends. Good food and drinks but it's not enough to cover the terrible service. At one point there was not a single waitress on the floor. There was people waiting to get seated, me and my friends waited almost an hour. When the waitress finally did come I flagged her over and she walked over and gave me the nastiest look and almost didn't help us, as if I was the one that was an inconvenience read more

Good place to have drinks and hangout. Ask for Bailey always serves us with the best energy!! Nothing but good positive vibes :)

Really, not a bad spot. Unfortunately they must allow smoking and vaping inside, because a lot of people were doing it without question.

Came in to have a nice cool drink and I was so happy to see my Bartender Jamie is phenomenal very professional and serve you right. The whole vibe is amazing this time I'm solo but between the good music and great sports on I'm chillin. I must say you come here you won't be disappointed at the bar food is good too but this round I'm just sipping. read more

NFL watch party event: many tv screens with various sports on. They do have happy hour specials that are pretty good. During week they have meal specials too, the Thursday hamburger special including burger, fries and a beer for $10! Seating is hard and uncomfortable when at table without bench, just wood chairs. They have restricted reservation rules which is really dumb in my opinion. read more

Wings are pretty good here. Came here today with my family for lunch and I must say I was impressed.

I'm pretty disappointed with this place. The food is OK. Not bad. It might have tasted better if their service didn't leave such a bad taste in my mouth. Who knows. I'm sure people go mostly for the alcohol anyway. Idk. But we had problems with our order- I mean lots wrong with it. When I called the manager she said I will look into this and call you right back. No call. Not ever. It's been a few days. I even called back to check if she had my number correct and she recited it to me and said she would call back. Nothing. If feels pretty disrespectful. And makes me just not want to go back. And to let people know how they value their customers. Just sayin.. Update: we went in to get food to go, because I had a coupon and I love wings. The place has changed a lot. We walked in and there was rap music blaring out of all speakers. Like LOUD. It has a more clubby vibe than restaurant vibe. Within a minute, a man stood up and passed out, landing at our feet. He was helped up, and within five minutes fell down again, almost hitting us on his way down. While there were a few employees, no one approached us to greet us or take our order for a good 10 minutes The lady who eventually took our order was nice. We got the food home and the order was mostly right. The food was good and still warm. The traditional wings were good and had a lot of chicken on them. Pretty good flavors too. I had a bite of my daughters hamburger and it had great flavor. I think I will be back, but I will order a salad. Just because I can't eat like this all the time lol. And I will be ordering to go again, because this is just not my scene. read more

Service was terrible the food wasn't the best but it's basic Sysco tasting products for a bar. The server only check random peoples ids. I know one table was under age but was being served alcohol. May go back for happy drinks only. read more

Stephanie W should be fired! I came in while i was waiting for my phone to be repaired at Apple. All I wanted to do was watch the game on the screen, however i also felt bad so i ordered a Diet Coke. She gave me so much attitude and yelled, " youre just ordering a Diet Coke, i thought you were going to get food!" In front of everyone. I felt so uncomfortable that i left after that. If she is not fired, i will escalate this read more

Wings were mid, drenched in sauce. they were swimming in sauce. Burger was dog shit it gave me stomach pain for a week!!

I asked my husband to bring me some takeout wings on his way home from work. I'm not even sure what the heck I received...incredibly dry, over-seasoned, very strange, inedible "boneless wings". God, never again. Ever. It was that bad. I hadn't eaten all day and was starving, and I ate one and threw the rest away. Skip it. read more

After much debate and asking around of where to go to get the best chicken wings, My husband and I settled on Just Wing It as our first stop of this chicken wing season that has seized our taste buds!   Located on Ming ave, between Scarlet Oak blvd and Haggin oaks Blvd , inside the big " strip mall " center where the Edwards Cinema , Applebees, Vons, Chase Bank , plus many more businesses are located, Just Wing It is to the right of the Edwards theater and is not a stand alone building, kind of hard to find if you dont know where to look.  From the outside appearance it looks like the place would be small inside but Upon walking in I was surprised by the spaciousness of the establishment, we where greeted with a sign that says "seat yourself", not to many people here for a Sunday afternoon. The first thing you notice is the bright huge bar that sits in the middle of the establishment ,  The bartender was all smiles and friendly, deeply engaged with the people sitting at the bar, 10 or so projectors  with large screens align the walls and have different sports playing , it has a very laid back sporty feel to it, very clean and comfortable and very positive atmosphere!  a great place to just come and enjoy a drink , have some wings and watch the game! One of many different games!  Now onto the food.. I ordered the 5 piece bone in wing combo, I got 3 garlic Parmesan and 2 of The Wife. With a side of homemade chips My husband ordered a 10 piece bone in combo half Cajun and the other half honey bourbon with a side of garlic fries. Both of my flavors and my husband's were superb. The garlic Parmesan had a very potent Parmesan flavor to it, not at all overbearing but also not weak in flavor either, they didn't make my breath stink LOL, the wife flavor does have a nice spicy kick to it , I didn't pick up any sweetness at all in it, but it was still really good.  From what my husband told me the Cajun was mild and full of flavor and the honey bourbon had a nice mildly sweet and savory flavor to it with a glistening glaze. My husband let me try his garlic fries and those were the best tasting garlic fries I have ever had, they had a savory garlic flavor infused in them and where hot and crispy too, and my homemade chips where perfection! They had a lightly golden crispy color to them , not at all burnt or over seasoned.  I would honestly come back alone just for the chips alone!  And let me tell you about that ranch dipping sauce they have! It is so creamy and out of this world delicious!   I was dipping everything in it! lol We both certainly enjoyed our meals and the only reason I give them a 4 out of 5 stars is because the bottom of the basket of my husband's garlic fries had a little puddle of grease in them, nothing to major and that didn't stop him from devouring them!  Plus all day Sunday is happy hour!  house margaritas for 3 dollars and some change, and they were pretty darn good too! Our server was very attentive and friendly. The food and drinks where great. Our bill was around 40$ for the food and 3 margaritas! So its affordable too.  Will be back for sure! read more

So disappointed all around. This place used to be our go to for sporting events for years. We would watch games here or order takeout. Today is Super Bowl Sunday and they are slammed (no covid protocols), but that shouldn't be an excuse for bad customer service and horrible food. We called our order in for pickup and was told it would be ready in an hour. An hour and 45 minutes later it was ready. Our order was incorrect. We didn't get the flavor of wings we ordered. We didn't get the extra sauce we paid for. And the chicken and BBQ sauce was missing from the BBQ chicken salad! We were looking forward to our meal and really wanted to support local. Unfortunately we may not do it again. Based on recent reviews it seems like the business isn't what it once was. That's a shame. read more

Very crowded even with COVID. Large parties. Very uncomfortable. Got some large blue drink. No clue what it was. Got the 5 piece boneless. Garlic park flavor was very very good! I paired that with the Mac and cheese. Pretty good. I ate the Mac and cheese again the next day for breakfast. read more

Food was great and our server Tati was nice and very helpful. My Shirley Temple was on point and I had a great time.

Waited 20 minutes before server came to our table. We ordered a drink waited another 20 minutes. Drink never came so we left. Absolutely ridiculous. read more

Ripped off for drinks i didnt order, when i brought the issue up to the server Caro, and the bartender Steven, i was given a shrug and told they would review the cameras when the manager had time. He stated he made 14 shooters and i needed to pay for 14 when in fact we had 7 for a group of 4. I refused to pay until they viewed the cameras. I left with out paying and stated i would call the manager the next day to settle my account after they review video. I called the next day spoke to Tara, she said the manager would call me. No return call from the managers or owners. 2 days later an unauthorized charge to my bank account was posted. I did not sign for this amount. it was fraudulently charged without AUTHORIZATION. i did not receive a call back from the manager, and was not acknowledged for my complaint. I have no problem paying the CORRECT amount. BE BETTER and don't take advantage of your customers!!!! I will not return to this place. I filed a claim with my bank for the correct amount of the bill. Whats fair is fair! dont CON people who are there to give you business!!!!! read more

This is one of my favorite places to come out with the husband on a Friday night after a long week of work and enjoy some drinks and wings with one of the best servers I've had in a while her name is Vanessa, she is attentive and very nice...but today was apparently a bad day for another server named Caro..what's the idea of yelling in front of all the customers with profanity? It is very VERY unprofessional. If someone is having a bad I understand but don't let it out for everyone to hear let alone to another team member just because your attitude might not be great doesn't mean you have to belittle another coworker in front of others. This happen around 5:50pm today 8-01-2025. I hope management is able to either retrain or make some different measures to prevent this from ever happening. I'm not going to lie I didn't enjoy my time today because of that bad server yelling " you are always doing the same thing every f*****g week. read more

Excellent place to come and kick it with your friends and family, especially if you love sports. The food is excellent and I am yet to find a different restaurant with quality wings as good as the ones provided on the menu here. 5/5 for sure. read more

Great spot to watch football! Lots of fun, friendly staff and good drinks! Packed on Sunday!

I'm hoping this place either hires more staff or perhaps their staff truly needs to learn how to multitask! This place has potential to be great, it's just unfortunate that their customer service is not up to par. We waited rather long for our two food items. We eventually ordered beer, but even then- that took a while also. The restaurant wasn't full to it's capacity, perhaps no one wanted to work tonight. read more

I used to be a fan of this restaurant. The first gut punch was when they stopped filling Beer boots that I bought from them for $50.00. Couple of years later I finally go back and I was disappointed. We ordered a fish bowl drink that taste like pure alcohol. We had to keep adding orange soda to it to make it drinkable. We ended up just giving up on it. We also ordered wings. My first mistake was asking for well done wings because I like my wings to have crispy skin. The wings were overcooked and had a mouth feel of wood/bark (using my imagination, I don't eat wood). The wings came out within 5 minutes of ordering...those wings could not have been fresh out of the fryer. Would I go back? Probably not, but I do have fond memories of a time when they were once my favorite sports bar in Bakersfield. read more

Not impressed. Came here on a Friday night with my friends and the service was NOT GOOD. Also, the bathrooms are so dirty. We could smell them from our table (which was 3 tables away). The food was pretty good but this place could use some improvements. I understand that everywhere is short staffed due to Covid so totally not our server's fault. Clean the restrooms & I might comeback. read more

This is a nice place to get some drinks and food with friends. I came with a group of friends to celebrate our end of the school semester. I ordered the boneless wings combo with a side. I ordered the bbq wings and the Mac and cheese. The food was delicious but my biggest complain is that the wings are marinated in cold sauce so every time I have ordered wings here they are like room temperature or cold not hot. My friends ordered the veggie wings and they were good but cold as well. Service was decent as well. We called in advanced and they were able to set up and reserve a table for us. read more
