We ordered a burger, wings, and a mix of fries and onion rings. The burger was cooked a bit more than I prefer but it was still enjoyable. The real standouts were the wings. We tried the mango habanero and the Old Bay honey. Both were excellent, with the mango habanero carrying a nice kick and a saucier finish while the Old Bay honey had a great balance of sweet and savory. The onion rings were crispy. The seasoned fries were fine, though they weren't "seasoned" Overall, I would definitely come back for the wings. The burger I would likely pass on next time but the wings alone make this place worth a return visit.

For take-away: ordered a Caesar salad, tomato soup, and hummus (with pita)…read more The Caesar salad was delivered with two small tubs of a very liquid Caesar dressing (they'll never run out of this dressing as long as a funnel and a water spigot are available). There was no Parmesan cheese on the salad, and there were 2 croutons in the salad. Pass. Perhaps it would be good as compost. There was no tomato soup delivered. Instead, there was an extra tub of Mac n' cheese, which was tasteless. The hummus was good, but the wedges of pita bread were hard, possibly a week or two old. Disappointing, but it's okay to serve crap food to people restricted to the hotels in snow-bound DC.

This place is a chicken wings spot at the core. Smoked chicken wings to be exact. The wings are…read morenice and slightly crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. These are the classic characteristics of traditional smoked chicken wings. The tenders on the other hand are good however not as crispy on the breading as I'd like. I believe they are trying to accomplish a soft breading which is OK however theirs is a different kind of soft breading resulting from the batter/flour and frying process. Borderline soggy. These tenders are very tender and would be exceptional if they'd change their flouring and frying technique. Overall a good chicken tenders that I'd purchase again when ordering chicken wings. I don't think I'd travel here exclusively for tenders. As far as sauces are concerned, I tried the Smokey Buffalo, Alabama White BBQ and Honey Mustard. Would like to have some traditional flavors available for the traditional palates. Overall a very good experience.

This is definitely a hole in the wall-type restaurant. The exterior isn't great, and honestly the inside isn't much either. There's no place to sit, you come to order your food and go- but the service and quality of the food more than make up for it. We ordered an XL order of soy garlic wings (20 pieces) and a M order of honey spicy (10 pieces) and it was more than enough for 6 people. The crunch and flavor were TOP. I heard great things about the honey lemon pepper wings only after we placed our order, but unfortunately we didn't get to order any. I also have to shout out the employee that took our order. He was so friendly to us and also threw in extra sauces and Oreos when he saw we were celebrating my bachelorette. That extra touch of customer service made our visit here memorable. I'll be back to try the honey lemon pepper soon! - Ambiance: 3/5 - Food: 5+/5 - Service: 5++/5

Don't take it from me...if you're on social media you'll see that food influencers have travelled from afar to rate these wings. And even they were in disbelief how amazing these wings were. The honey lemon pepper is not just a unique sounding flavor but the taste execution is something else. If you haven't tried KoChix don't walk...RUN! Service is always nice and they get orders ready fairly quickly for a fried wing joint. Ambiance isn't much to write about. Kind of your standard takeout place. We got the wings and stood outside and enjoyed them. The weather was nice. Bring plenty of paper towels and water to rinse your hands off.

I placed an online order that included a 4-piece chicken meal, a seafood basket, and a fish…read moresandwich for a few friends and myself. Unfortunately, the overall experience fell short of my expectations. The fish sandwich was somewhat oily, and the coleslaw had a tangier flavor profile than I personally prefer. While the chicken had some enjoyable flavor, the seasoning and coating appeared to vary between pieces. The texture was also different from what I anticipated, as it was quite tender and fell apart easily, and the coating slid off giving it a texture that seemed more similar to roasted than traditionally fried chicken. The seafood basket also presented a few concerns. The shrimp seemed slightly overcooked, and the cod did not taste as fresh as I had hoped. In addition, the honey butter rolls did not seem to be at their freshest, as the texture was somewhat firm. Definitely frozen! I think it's safe to conclude that the rolls are store bought dinner rolls that are simply tossed in the oven for a few minutes and brushed with butter. I understand that experiences can vary, and it's possible that dine-in service differs from takeout. However, based on this particular order, and the price I would likely consider other options before ordering from this location again.

Bonus: one order feeds me for like three days. Three. Days. The portion sizes alone deserve a five-star review. This is my naughty place and I am at peace with that.

Vibe: Feels like a straightforward neighborhood BBQ spot…read more Nothing fancy, just good smoked food. Food: I ordered the smoked wings (12) and the spicy greens. The wings were seasoned just right and honestly didn't need sauce. If you want one though, go with the cilantro ranch. The BBQ sauce wasn't sweet or smoky, I'm still trying to figure out what the flavor was. Also, I got 9 drums and 3 flats, which was a little off, I'd prefer a 6/6 split. Online you cannot do all flats or all drums The spicy greens are meat-free and I even called both to make sure. had good flavor, but they were more sweet and spicy to me not just spicy. Service / Timing: The cashier wasn't very welcoming. No hello, no thank you, nothing. That definitely stood out for these prices. Value: Pretty pricey for what I got. My total was $27.55 for 12 wings and greens. HIGH Highlight: WINGS. Wrap-Up: Despite the service and the price, the food was good. I will be back for the wings!

Stan's is a DC STAPLE. If you're born here, raised here, a transplant, or one of the DMV cuties…read morerunning around the city and you've never been to Stan's... are you even DC? I hadn't been in over 10 years, but after another spot in the area completely frustrated us, we ended up at Stan's and instantly remembered why this place has survived for decades. Remember the old TV show Cheers? That's the vibe. Everybody seems to know everybody. You head down those steep, borderline life-threatening stairs into this underground pub and immediately walk into organized chaos in the best way possible. The place was packed. After-work crews, regulars, friend groups, people eating, drinking, laughing, and minding everybody else's business all at the same time. It was LOUD loud. The kind of loud where you have to lean in to hear your friends. At first, it looked like there was absolutely no chance we'd get a seat, but the staff stayed on it and worked hard to make it happen. It took a while because this isn't the type of place where people eat and leave. Folks settle in, order another round, and stay for hours. Speaking of rounds, the bartenders do not believe in weak drinks. The pours were generous and then some. Now let's discuss the real star of the show: THE CHICKEN WINGS. Every table seemed to have an order. Every person walking by seemed to have a basket. Everyone knows you come to Stan's for two things: strong drinks and those famous chicken wings. They absolutely lived up to the hype. After about a 45-minute wait, we finally scored seats at the bar. Unfortunately, we got summoned to another spot before we could fully settle in, but that's okay. Stan's, don't worry. We'll be back very soon. DC legend status: maintained. Rating: 4.5/5 because the wait is real, but so is the vibe.
