WHY WE WENT HERE: - wanted to try a new (to us) fried chicken joint THE LOOK (FROM THE OUTSIDE): - located on the corner of 23rd Ave and 42nd Ave - located next door to Hi & Buy Liquor THE LOOK (FROM THE INSIDE): - not a dine-in type of place; it's literally an order and take-out type of place THE MENU: - various fried things including American fried foods and Indian fried foods; menu differed from the front (outdoors) vs. inside (by the cash register) but apparently all items are available to order WHAT WE ORDERED: - bone-in chicken - honey biscuits - potato wedges - onion rings THE TASTE: - the look and taste was reminiscent of (good) Krispy Krunchy Chicken locations, especially the honey biscuits - chicken was very crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside; seasoned nicely - honey biscuits were good! - potato wedges were solid; hard to find a place that messes those up - onion rings were decent; could have been better if they were packaged in a box vs. in a bag; everything but the onion rings traveled well in the car ride home CUSTOMER SERVICE: - kind of feels like they rush you to order and get out - we were led to believe that the sauces that are in "cups" were in-house; we were surprised to see that it's $0.85 per small Sweet Baby Ray's condiment cup of the Buffalo Wing Sauce and the Barbecue Sauce (just have your go-to condiments at home ready; better deal that way vs. buying the sauce here)

Spicy 6PCS Tenders

The chicken was solid! Pretty large tender pieces, not dry at all. I wish there's was more of the 'spice' seasoning. The wedges were crispy and texturally fun to pop in the mouth and eat. The biscuit has a more bread-like texture than typical biscuits, but still pleasant to eat. The only downside side for me was the prepackaged sauces, I'm not a fan of the flavor of the particular brand they use.

The 5 stars is strictly for the chicken and chicken alone. This is some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. It's crispy, juicy and flavorful. We did order some sides: biscuits, macaroni and cheese, coleslaw and potato wedges. The biscuits were nice and drizzled with honey, while the rest of the sides were hit or miss. Don't get the coleslaw, just don't. Overall, the star of the show is the fried chicken and it's definitely worth the trip. Pro tip, definitely call ahead or order through an app and give them about 20-30 minutes since they fry the chicken to order.

It's the best-fried chicken I have ever had in Sacramento. The customer service was excellent, and the chicken was fresh, hot, and crispy.

Outstanding Customer Service at Fire Wings!…read more I had such a wonderful experience at Fire Wings! Yuliana and Trinity were absolutely amazing--so friendly, fun, welcoming, and full of positive energy! Yuliana even offered me the stuffed jalapeños, and OMG... they were delicious! The whole experience was made even better by their excellent customer service and big smiles. A special thank-you to Karina, the manager, for creating such a great team and atmosphere. You can really see that her management and leadership make a difference. Yuliana and Trinity, thank you for making my visit so enjoyable! You both deserve recognition for your kindness, professionalism, and fantastic customer service. 5 stars all the way!

Oh how the greats fall…read more About 10 years ago, when Fire Wings started popping up, it was legit one of the best wing spots around. Unfortunately, its time at the top was short lived. Year after year the quality and service declined, and eventually I stopped going. I rarely order delivery, but wings sounded good and Fire Wings is the closest to me, so I gave it another shot for old times sake. I have dined in at the midtown location before and it's fine, fast casual and usually busy late night. Today, I ordered the 10 wing combo with plain fries. Hot take, but I've never liked their seasoned fries. They always feel overcooked and oily to me. I got mango habanero and lemon pepper, added five extra fire wings, and an extra ranch. The total would've been $38, but I had a $10 off coupon, so it came out to $28 before tip. Still expensive, but that's delivery pricing these days, not really the restaurant's fault. What is their fault is the size of these wings. Look at the photos, they were like toothpicks. I used to love Fire Wings because they served good quality wings with a lot meat on them. These had to have had less than an ounce of meat each. And it wasn't just a few of them, like 80% of the order was undersized. I honestly feel like they might have set aside a bunch of small wings for delivery orders, because the last time I dined in they were not this ridiculously small. The fries were whatever, basically standard frozen fries. I do remember that they used to give a ton of seasoned fries back in the day, but it looks like they also skimp on fries as well these days. The ranch was just okay, nothing special. The mango habanero was solid, one of my favorite wing flavors. Lemon pepper was just okay. And the fire flavor, which is supposed to be spicier than regular buffalo, tasted exactly like regular buffalo. This will be the last time I give Fire Wings my business. I have to accept they just aren't what they used to be. At this point I'd honestly take Wingstop over them for bigger wings and better sides. It's a shame, because the one thing Fire Wings always had going for them was their range of flavors.

We popped in and immediately bellied up to the bar. The bartender was super friendly and got our drinks very fast even though the place busy. We quickly found out that it was karaoke night, which is why there was such a packed house. What we didn't know is that the gay men's choir had shown up, after their practice, to have a few drinks and dominate the mic. We ordered a ton of bar food and loved everything. The loaded toys and the fried zucchini were my fave with the sliders being a close second. This is a full bar with beer, wine, and cocktails. I stuck with a vodka soda and my friend sipped on a custom drink. Not sure what it was called, but it was red and my friend really enjoyed it. Not only were we lucky to experience the gay men's choir incredible singing talent, but they also did a full on dance routine to an *NSYNC song. Truly a masterful performance! Amazing vibes and great food. If I lived in the area, this would probably be a regular spot for me!

They have indoor and outdoor seating and definitely give off the dive bar feel. I came in with a coworker after hosting an event. We were looking for a spot still open at 10pm on a Thursday that had food and drinks and that wasn't a chain. Bear Dive was the perfect choice! It ended up being karaoke night and we had drinks, food and amazing entertainment! WOW some of the people there were INCREDIBLE singers- and dancers! We got a little NSYNC, Bye Bye Bye and it truly wowed us! I asked the bartender to make me their favorite cocktail, I don't know what it was but it had tequila and was delicious! We also had the Bacon Cheddar Tots ($10), Sliders ($14), and Fried Zucchini ($9). Everything was well seasoned, flavorful, and cooked well. The perfect food pairings with late night bites. Even though the crowd seemed to be a lot of regulars, we felt welcomed in and really enjoyed ourselves. We found metered street parking easily and I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

This is my go-to spot for late night cravings. Sacramento's restaurant choices become extremely…read morelimited by the time midnight rolls around; an even smaller sliver of those choices continue to serve high quality food. Whether visiting their storefront or ordering on DoorDash, my experience consistently exceeds what I'd expect from a hole-in-the-wall by a mile. Getting food in the wee hours somewhat implies choosing between run-of-the-mill fast food options, paying ridiculous prices, and/or encountering cranky employees. Halal Muncheez rejects all three of those expectations. For $15.50 and tax, you can get a large, well-seasoned chicken/lamb rice platter with no shortage of protein. Part of the reason this dish tastes so great has to do with the fact that it easily outshines the typical after-hours fast food joints (e.g. McDonalds, Wingstop), but it holds its own as a conventional lunch or dinner option as well. How they manage this level of service on a 10am-4am schedule 7 days a week blows my mind. I can't think of another restaurant that matches its value, consistency, and accessibility.

Food is up fast and service is exceptional.

Using the yelp app. Due to glitching with the internet service one order was duplicate 7 more times in error and the order went through. I contacted both GrubHub and the restaurant immediately to notify them the error. Thinking someone from the restaurant would also respond wondering if this was correct that someone would be ordering the same exact thing in quantity. Online with Grubhub they left me on hold for 45 minutes and once I reached this location, after I also sent an email, I was told to call another location that was closed. I held one line and called Grubhub from my husband's phone. We are now 30 minutes from the original order being placed and they say it's in process and can't be stopped. Two hours later a delivery person showed up with all this food. We try to declined the order and the driver, nice guy, tells us to call again to get it addressed. All this food going to go to waste. I was no longer hungry. 5 small salads and 8 brisket burgers. Charged for 9 meals. STILL WRONG. NEVER AGAIN WILL I USE YELP PARTNERING WITH GRUBHUB!
