Rocketfuel Wings - Updated menu - Chicken Wings Near Me - Newark, New Jersey

The wings look like they have sauce but had no flavor, but there was extra sauce so I was hopeful. They sent little sauces in the brute & high octane. The high octane tasted straight up sweet, so I'm assuming it was the raspberry scorcher (0/5 for that sauce), the brute was fine but I would have preferred at least one ghost pepper since that's what I ordered... I was excited about these because it's their own sauces they used, but it fell very short. read more

I visited this restaurant on a Wednesday for their Wednesday Wing special. I have driven past this location multiple times and kept saying, I need to try it. Finally made it and the wait was well worth it. My customer experience was the best. The owners and the cook were so friendly. The allowed me and my guest sample the wings sauces. They also allowed us to taste the soup (that potato and chicken soup is everything). The chili is very yummy and I don't even like chili. LOL!! Can I just say that the wings by themselves taste good but when you add the sauces it just heightens the flavors that much more. I was not disappointed in anything. The fried cheese is also very good. I highly recommend and will frequent often. Also, the vibe and ambiance is very chill and relaxing. The music was old school favorites and classics but upbeat and was a nice added touch. read more

Lousy tasting wings and overpriced... The employees don't wear gloves which is definitely a no, no...

This mom-and-pop wings joint serves lightning-fast, freshly made comfort food. The food is quick and delicious, made from scratch.

We travel for work and try wings all over the nation and these have to be the best wings and sauces we have tried. Hands down THE BEST WINGS AND SAUCES!!! We will definitely come back. read more

Very good wings and cheese curds. I ordered via DoorDash and was very impressed. I would definitely come back and have again and try other flavors! read more

Love the wings here, great creation of sauces, and a good variety of Asian flavors mixed in with home style wings. The sandwiches and other apps they have are also fantastic. Jimmy is also very welcoming and provided me with his insight on his passion for sauces and you can see he really cares about the food he makes. read more

It was fantastic! Went with some friends for lunch. I am not a huge wing person so I was not sure about it. I was wrong. When we arrived, we were greeted by a very friendly person behind the counter. He allowed us to try the different flavors of the sauces. He was so nice and generous in welcoming us. Friendliness: A+++ Cleanliness: A+ The place was very clean and tidy. I didn't use the bathrooms but it was obvious that they cared about the place. Atmosphere: A We sat outside at one of the picnic tables. Beautifly day. Perfect spot for lunch. Food: A+ The four of us got some wings, chicken strips, and a chicken sandwich. I had the sandwich and it was really good. The lemon pepper strips were really good too. I didn't try the wings but the others loved them. Also got the macaroni salad, pickles, and fried zucchini. They too were great. Value: A- It is not cheap food but the quality was above average. The person who helped us was a younger guy .. maybe 25 - 30 years old. Sorry, I didn't catch his name. He had to be an owner because he was top-notch and really made the experience an A++++. read more

Exceptional food. Love all of the different wing flavors. Jeff (owner) is a great guy. 2 thumbs up.

Amazing Service and dynamite food I was sold with the great hospitality and customer service provided by George and his Staff Highly Recommend They show love there! read more

I went back in to give them a chance since my Mom who was visiting walked by and wanted wings. I informed the owners of my past experience and they actually already read the review. I informed them it was real as they thought it was a fake review but they inform of the former employee situation. Although the girls still work there, I'm hoping going forward it won't be a situation. I ordered and the service was great as they gave me recommendations. Much better experience and I will say that now I will go back. read more

This place is fantastic! The wings are juicy and perfectly cooked. I've tried three sauces so far and loved them all! They have so many fantastic side dishes, there's something here for everyone. One of the owners, George, took care of me at lunch time and was a super nice guy, the service is great here! read more

The best wings ever and the owners were so so nice and sweet. Definitely will be coming back!

Best chicken soup EVER. George is a really outgoing owner who goes out of his way to make everyone feel better. Came in because I was feeling under the weather and will definitely be back read more

While the wings may have been one flavor dressed up as 20 different ones, the wide variety of sauces was interesting and the service was very attentive. Possibly too attentive. This would be a smart and popular choice for a catered event. read more

Owners really nice and Enthusiastic. Wish them the best with the sauces and wings! Wednesday is best deal wings for 1.00!

This place deserves no less than 5 stars! I was greatly impressed by the extremely welcoming atmosphere. For my first time dining here, I had a very hospitable experience. These days the food can be warm but the hospitality can be cold but at Rocketfuel we were given both great food and a warm experience; I will be back soon! read more

A friend brought me here today. He was raving about how you get five wings for just $8.99. That didn't sound like that great a deal. We walked in and one of the first things you notice are the awards for their sauces. Who knew such a thing existed? I ordered a 5 piece wings meal. The owning partners took our order and served us. I didn't catch their names, but we had a pleasant conversation as we waited for our food. We ordered our food to go, but as we were talking, I use that as an excuse to eat the food right there because my friend wanted to leave and I was too hungry for the 10-minute walk back to his office. Nice guys. They told us a little bit of their backstory about their sauces and how they got where they are today. Really cool guys. NOW! My favorite foods are steaks, burgers, pizza, tacos and wings. Not necessarily in that order. I've eaten wings from every wings chain from Hooters to Buffalo Wild Wings to Wing Stop and fast food wings from every place that sells them. Often only once! It's so easy to make bad wings and every one of these places has something I don't like about their wings. Whether they're too small, too dry, too large, too fatty, too greasy, too salty and some are just not very good. I usually just make my own wings and even I can't get them as perfectly as I like them. I opened my food and dug in. The first thing you notice is that the wings are a very nice size and beautiful dark golden color. There were lots of sweet potato fries that are actually the crosswaffle cut chips. They were excellent! They had this apple ketchup that took ketchup to another level. It was incredibly flavorful. The ketchup is an experience in itself. I highly recommend it. The wings. These wings are not breaded, but somehow they get a perfectly uniform crisp, like a thin layer of caramelization all over. And it seriously crispy! You would think that something this crispy on the outside would be dry and pasty on the inside. Not at all! The meat was so perfectly fall-off-bone tender and juicy with flavor that went all the way down to the bone! They let me taste some of their hot sauces before I ordered, the hot sauces taste great. I'm a big fan of hot sauces when I'm snacking on wings. But if I'm eating wings as a meal, I just have blue cheese sauce. As good as their sauces are, these wings don't need anything. Has one of the owners was talking about his philosophy on his wings, he mentioned that he doesn't want his wings to have anything that he doesn't like in a wing. And indeed there is nothing not to like about these wings. The only drawback is that I live 30 miles away. I really hope these guys do well and open locations all over New York City. If they open more locations around New York City, they'll shut down every other wings joint. And you actually get a lot of excellent food for $8.99. Perfect! read more
