Lives up to the hype! Wings were cooked deliciously and the bleu cheese was decadent and a perfect match. Prices not terrible. Excellent vibe, everyone's having a good time here. Cold beers. Almost always a wait, but tables seem to turn over pretty quick. read more

Hit or miss service. Great wing Wednesday deal and happy hour but after our second visit here we decided the vibes were not it. Wings are good, drinks are good, service can be rude and obviously they don't want you there. Host especially seemed like he was telling everyone longer wait times to get them to leave and go elsewhere. The vibes were negative and off. Some good music and a cool Christmas themed bathroom. Just not a place we see ourselves wanting to return to or support. Being treated poorly as a customer is never fun. read more

You've likely heard the folklore of Vindicktive and their tough guy stance on all-things-wings. No ranch, no crying, no talking smack on Buffalo sports, etc. This may seem like a hardo take on this humble food, but you have to love a restaurant that cares that much about what they're putting out into the world. Seattle has been known as a WEAK wing town, so I appreciate the specialization going on here. Maybe it will push others to step up their wing game. This place has a very cool grunge feel which fits right in over in Belltown. I know the owners are from NY, but I respect that they're also giving the spot a Seattle feel. We sat upstairs in the ULTRA grungy "arcade" area (just like 3 pinball machines that I didn't see a single person use, mostly decor I assume). The menu is incredibly simple which is what you want from a place like this. Some wings, some (not) wings, and some other drunk munchies. I got a 12 piece standard buffalo. I'm into spicy food, but I assumed that the hot buffalo would be outrageous at a wing place that takes themselves seriously. I must have been right because the standard was fairly hot in its own right. These wings are thoroughly deep fried. If you're into big and meaty bois, this is not the joint for you. But if you're into a nice crispy texture, and a STRONG flavor (that's me) you will love these wings. I thoroughly enjoyed the flavor of the blue cheese as well, and the texture is intriguing since it's far more chunky than the average. My only gripe is that it inhibits true dipability of the wings. Because the sauce container is so shallow, you can't fully engulf a wing inside of its tender embrace. This is an issue for me because I am a mf'in sauce boy. I suppose they want people to respect the wing for what it is, but many of us like to get truly lost in that sauce when it's wing time. I'd recommend getting another serving of it if you get 12 wings. Serving two celery sticks is also a hilarious thing to do. Maybe it's an homage to what they do in NY, but I have never understood the whole vegetables on the side of wings thing anyways. Just give me the wings and I'll be fine. I will for sure be back soon to try more flavors. Major props to Vindicktive and what they're doing for Seattle. read more

Vindicktive Wings - Buffalo - Chicken Wings Near Me - Seattle, Washington

got to this spot on one of their Wing Wednesdays, which was a discounted day with 99 cent wings The only options available on this day were Lemon Pepper Wet, Buffalo Medium, and their flavor of the day, which in this case was Thai Green Curry Note that a drink purchase is required to take advantage of this price It was pretty packed when we got there - so it took around 30 minutes to get a small table I was able to try each flavor of wing the one i liked the best was the lemon pepper. despite the flavor name being wet, this was the only flavor that had an actually crispy skin on the outside. i could definitely taste the lemon & pepper as well, making for a nice experience The buffalo wings were fine - but the issue was they were completely drenched in sauce, to the point where it was leaking over to the other flavor of wings. this much sauce was just unnecessary. the only thing these wings tasted like was your traditional buffalo sauce, and it overpowered the chicken completely. not a fan of these the thai green curry was alright - definitely tasted like green curry, but a bit too much sauce as well for my overall impressions - these wings were pretty small. i get that for 99 cent wings, they can't be too large, but I can't say these were very meaty at all. on the positive side, the quality of the chicken was quite good, and the blue cheese was nice as well I would say 12 wings is pretty filling, and getting them for $12 is a decent deal. the problem is the drink purchase inflates the price a bit read more

Vindictive Wings won best wing in Seattle in 2024. Of course I had to try this spot and see if it lived up to the hype. We went with a group of friends and it was a split decision. First off the service was good and we found a table pretty quickly. It has a dive bar feel with arcade games up stairs. Standard bar. But we came for the wings. We ordered the buffalo, lemon pepper, Mississippi dry rub, and the spicy miso parm plus some buffalo cauliflower. The buffalo sauce was my favorite and second was the spicy miso parm. I like my wings saucy. Half the table loved the dry rub Mississippi wings. This place also doesn't serve ranch, it's a blue cheese place. I like blue cheese but some of my friends didn't. That was a hard one to swallow. The wings were flavorful, cooked decent, not too small and not too big but overall they were just "okay". They are good wings but I was expecting more of a "best wing in 2024" in Seattle. Overall we agreed that these wings decent. A solid wing, but I don't feel lived up to the hype. read more

Great wings, spacious interior. We came on trivia night by accident but ended up enjoying the guy running the trivia and stayed. The only thing stopping me from 5 stars is their soda definitely comes from a bar gun, and I wish they would say that when you order. Other NA drink options are too frilly, I'd love just a regular diet soda or unsweetened tea. read more

Got to try the wings from vindictive wings for the first time. There is no designated parking - only street parking, Ambiance is a dive bar type of feel with loud music and tvs everywhere. Service was fast and convenient. Did not have to wait long for food to come out. I ordered the naked Mississippi dry, the Lemon pepper wet, and the Buffalo sauce. Out of the 3 flavors, the lemon pepper wet was by far my fav, then the Buffalo and lastly the naked seasoning. The wet wings are very favorable and saucy. Didn't like the Mississippi dry as the wings were extra crispy and dry. The table also got a wedge salad. I also ordered a side of shoestring fries. read more

I walked in and this place was really nice and chill. I hear on weekends that it is like the place to be. The music keep your head bobbing. The honey BBQ off the chain it's got a little heat to it but I'm from Texas and I can handle it. Buffalo wings are so good spicy got my hair sweating. Lemon pepper wet, not like any other lemon pepper ever tasted. The cray was different not bad but different. The other dipping sauce the blue cheese and ranch with mixed different sauce it's crazy good. I will be back read more

Coming back to update my review as Vindictive has become my go-to place for wings. I don't know what kind of sweet love they're making to their wings, but my gosh they're so good now! From the rotating wing of the week, to the quick and attentive service, to sumo - it's a vibe. I'm glad I gave this place another chance, and I'm even happier my taste buds came around like liking blue cheese. read more

Hands down the BEST wings in Seattle!!! No question about it! I come here at least 3-4 days a week because everything about this place is on point. The staff is phenomenal; from the owners to the bartenders to the servers. EVERYONE treats you like family every single time you walk in. The vibe is exactly what you want in a bar: fun, chill, and full of great energy, especially on game days (especially if you're a Buffalo Bills fan - If you know, you know). Being from Atlanta, good wings mean something to me and I can honestly say I've never had better hot wings than at Vindicktive. Perfect flavor, perfectly cooked, and consistently fire EVERY SINGLE TIME. If you're looking for a go to spot for wings, drinks, and a great atmosphere ....this is it. 5 stars all the way! read more

Its a bar with hot wings... what more can you say? We came here on a wednesday so the value was actually pretty great at 99c per wing. Flavours were solid, we tried all three they had at the time, buffalo, lemon pepper and Sriracha honey. Star of the show was the Sriracha and lemon pepper. The ambiance is lively with a barcade upstairs. Now, the biggest pro of all however was the staff! Everyone was super friendly and helpful. read more

In spite of multiple recommendations to this place online, I really can't say I'd return for wings. I ordered the hot honey bbq and hot buffalo. The flavor of the wings were really good, however, the wings were so tough. If you like that, this is your spot. The wings weren't all that meaty so the crunchiness/toughness of the meat was overwhelming. They do not have ranch, however, the blue cheese seems to be homemade and wasn't bad. I ordered at the bar and no one came to check on me so I can't say much about the service. It has a typical sports bar feel with multiple TVs and a barcade upstairs. I did throughly enjoy the hip hop/r&b playlist. read more

Came here for the Wednesday $.99 wings deal. We did have to wait for like 40 minutes to get a table which is pretty long time just for some wings. When we got seated the service also took a long time. You do have to order a drink for the wings deal and I got a soda and that shit was the flattest soda I have ever had in my life. I don't know how they're diluting it or making it. We got the cauliflower bites which I think is a pass but my friends enjoyed it and of course we got a total of 32 wings in their special flavor of the week, honey Sriracha and lemon pepper. We thought the wings were really good but not worth the 40 minute wait. I didn't think it would be a fun place to come with friends if you have a lot of time though . read more

Friendliness of the staff and overall vibe of the restaurant was spot on. The wings were good but a little dry and small. I preferred the hot honey bbq as they were sauced up and had a nice mild heat. The fries were McDonalds-esque which I liked. I was apprehensive of them not having ranch but I will say they have the best blue cheese I've ever had. read more

Loved this place! Went for dinner around 9 on a friday- very loud and lively but they had some seating space upstairs. Ended up being perfect because we were so close to the TV and could watch baseball. The food was unreal! Great prices and great quality. I got the cauliflower wings (the best i've ever had) in the salt and vinegar sauce. My partner says the meat is also great though- he loved the hot honey BBQ and lemon pepper wet. Also, the plain fries were perfectly cooked. Lastly, we had a great bartender that made a delicious NA cocktail for me! It's not on the menu but they have a few, so just ask. Also.... make sure you check out the bathrooms! read more

Stopped into vindictive while in belltown during last visit. Had heard hype but never gone so decided to change that. Used to love going to this location when it was belltown pub and I'm glad the neighborhood has another solid restaurant option. I like what they did with the upstairs adding in some arcade games. We went late night after the mariners game on a Friday and it was packed. We were lucky to get a table. With how busy it was our server was awesome and on top of everything. I went with 12 buffalo wings and my wife got the burger. The wings came out extremely crispy and saucy the perfect combination. The sauce had some heat which I loved! They were some of the best wings I've had. Also a heads up they do not have ranch so don't bother asking. The wings are so good on their own though that you don't even miss it. Definitely live up to all the hype. The burger was also very good along with the side of fries. read more

The lemon pepper and buffalo wings are very good. They're nice and crispy, which I love because I normally ask for my wings fried hard and don't need to do so here. Don't get me started on blue cheese! I'm a big blue cheese fan and they have some amazing chunky blue cheese. We had about a 40 min wait time on Wing Wednesday, so get there early. read more

I sat at the bar, Marissa was my bartender and server and was amazing. Very friendly and provided great suggestions for what to do while I'm in town. Food is fresh and served hot. Had the 8 piece wings lunch special. Perfect for a cool rainy day. While a Buffalo Bills bar, the ambiance is great for a quick drink or taking your time to kick back and relax with friends. I'd recommend this spot to everyone as well to all my Kansas City Chiefs friends! read more

I visited Vindicktive Wings on 12/26/25 after seeing it all over TikTok and Instagram, so my expectations were pretty high. When we arrived, it was seat-yourself and order at the bar, which is fine, but the bar was extremely busy, so it took a while to place our order. The music was very loud, almost like a club environment, to the point where I couldn't even hear my boyfriend talking to me. After ordering, the wings took 30 minutes or more to come out. When they did arrive, they were cooked well-done and overly crispy for my taste. I know they are known for their blue cheese and clearly state they do not offer ranch. Personally, without a sauce I enjoy, the wings ended up being very dry for me. I ordered buffalo sauce for the table and also placed a to-go order for a family member, but the sauce was never brought out. Even though I specified it was for the table, it seems it was assumed the sauce belonged in the to-go bag. That said, the place is clearly very popular, and I'm open to giving it another try since it's possible my wings were just overcooked that day. However, between the long wait time, extremely loud environment, and missing items, this visit didn't live up to the hype I'd seen online. read more

We got to try the Bloody Mary's this time! A little heavier on the pepper than we'd prefer, but still happy we tried them. Server was super nice, and the wings were once again excellent. One little complaint that I forgot in my last review is that it gets pretty hot in here when it's packed and it's hot out. AC or a couple more fans would do this place some good. read more

I wanted to try this restaurant for their Wednesday $1 wings. The wings were decent. Nothing special about them other than price. There were only three flavors too. We had their buffalo, lemon pepper, and special of the week: Enchilada flavor, which was kinda good. If you want the $1 wings deal, then you have to buy a drink, so we had their soda, but it costed $4.... and the drink was a bit flat. The service was below average.... Personally didn't enjoy the server's service, as they weren't that nice. The food took awhile to make as well. The ambiance was decent. It's a sports bar restaurant and they had a good amount of TVs everywhere. Overall, I wouldn't come back and I'd rather spend money on good wings even if it's not cheap. read more

I came for wing wednesday ( $1 wings). You could order the wings in batches of 6 or 12, and the available flavors were lemon pepper, buffalo, and maple harissa. I tried all three and my favorite was the buffalo. The wings were smaller than I thought they'd be and they were also dry. For $1 I don't think I can complain too much though. We waited around 30 minutes for our table and we came at 6pm. I think this would be a fun place to watch sports games since it's also a bar and they have tvs. read more

Fun place! Went here for HH right before the rush of people. Bartenders are nice. You order from the bar and they bring food out. They were super busy so wing flavors were just the 3 they had on wing Wednesday: lemon pepper, med buffalo and the teriyaki. My friend and I decided to order all 3 with some fries. Loved the hard fry in the wings. So crispy! It was so good I ordered some for my sister to go. I'm not usually a fan of lemon pepper or buffalo but their wings were so delicious. I'd come back just to try the other flavors. I really wanted to see if the mango habeñero were spicy but I'll save that for next time! read more

Pretty frustrating experience. We came in as a group of 5 and were told they don't split checks for parties of "6 or more." When we pointed out we were five, we got attitude instead even abiding by their own "rules." They also tried to cram us into a tiny table despite the place not being busy. When we tried to solve the problem ourselves, it turned into a weirdly confrontational back-and-forth. Felt like they cared more about setting up arbitrary rules than actual service. We left and went up the road to Buckley's Sports Bar--much better experience. I'd recommend doing the same. read more

Great place to grab and drink, and a plate of specialty wings! Multiple televisions playing sports AND... sumo wrestling!

They also have an upstairs arcade for added entertainment. read more

Midnight munchies! Had a drink nearby and wanted either wings or pizza. Wings won and ended up here. They have a guy at the door checking IDs. Inside was quite loud. There's a second floor which has a few arcade games. The wing flavors my partner and I got were the lemon pepper and hot bbq. I liked the lemon pepper better. The size of the wings were a little sad though. The wait was also quite long to get our order. Before leaving, I went to use the restroom and oh my, it was like i'm taken to another place! It was all Christmas decorated! A nice surprise for me. I went during April, so i think they have it year round? The bar itself has some skeleton decors, so it was definitely interesting. read more

Was in the Belltown area and wanted to swing by a bar for some vibes and fries. The texture and crispiness was amazing, my only comment is that the fries were on the salty side. I had some bites that were like salt bombs. The bartenders were amazing, so sweet and kept asking if I wanted my water refilled whenever she noticed my empty cup. Overall a fun time, chill vibes and pretty decent food! Would recommend. read more

It's not too much of a secret, Vindicktive Wings is a Buffalo Bills Fan bar. My friend and I decided to take in the crowd and go real early to watch the championship game as the Bills take on the Chiefs. We got in early to watch the preceding game and were able to secure some counter seats, so it was awesome being front row for the game. Had some beers and the bartending team were really on point despite the massive crowd, so kudos to them. Of course, a round of Wings, along with our beers was in order, you can get 6 for $10 or 10 for $18. I went with the latter as I was hungry by this point. I got the buffalo hot and it was sufficiently spicy. The wings come with a bleu cheese which is kind of chunky, it's pretty good. I found the wings to be on the small side, particularly for the price points, but they were good as is the sauce. Additionally, from their site "In addition to the delectable wings, Vindicktive Wings offers a variety of other menu items, including smash burgers, French fries, and a must-try Chopped cheese." Vindicktive Wings on its own its a decent Wing and bar spot, but if you're a Buffalo fan or from that NY/CAN area you'll probably feel at home here. read more

I saw this place pop up on my social media and thought why not give it a try. I went specifically on their wing wednesday and got the buffalo wings and enchilada wings they had at the time. I'm not the biggest fan of buffalo sauce, but it wasn't bad just plain old buffalo wings! As for the enchilada wings, I liked them! The flavor was for sure different, yet that's the appeal of it. I will say my only complaint would be that the wings were small and a bit dry ... Although, it is to be expected from a happy hour menu lol. As a heads up, you need to purchase a drink (soda/alc) in order to participate in their wing wednesday deal. I thought it was a little ridiculous, but why not since it's a first time experience. Our server was a bit rushed and not too attentive to our section. Just kinda came and went along when our food was brought out. It is your typical sports bar! There's people drinking left and right, it's loud and the tv's are all gonna be playing some sort of game. read more

I will start this off by saying I consume a lot of wings on a regular basis from various places. I will say that these wings are hands down the BEST wings I've had in all of 2025!!!! The hot buffalo were actually spicy but not overbearing. Honestly the buffalo is low key like a lemon pepper buffalo but the regular lemon pepper wet wings are good too!! I am very very impressed honestly and that's hard to do with me and wings lol the blue cheese sauce is homemade and phenomenal too! The ambiance is like a bar vibe with tvs and good music! After 10pm, it goes down to self service at the bar and you order there, close out, and then they bring your food to you. I will be coming back for their 1 dollar wing night on Wednesdays!!! read more

Was on a walk and decided to check it out and I'm glad I did! They have their own lager beer which was amazing and cheap. Bartender was attentive and the place was pretty busy at the time. The wings are the star though! First off HOMEMADE BLUE CHEESE DRESSING!! Amazing!! So good. Lemon pepper wings had amazing flavor they were my favorite to be honest. The Vindictive fries were heavy but good, would have preferred the regular fries but that is because I ordered so many wings. The buffalo was flavorful and had a lingering heat but mixed with the blue cheese soo good! All in all great wings service oh and sumo wresting on the tv! For sure need to try it. read more

First time I came here for lunch the wings were fantastic. Met with a buddy during our lunch breaks at work. The buffalo is such an iconic and traditional flavor. The wings were crispy but still tender on the inside. Second time I was super pumped to come back. Even though I was 1 of 5 people in the restaurant, it took me around 30 minutes to get my order of 12 wings. I had to pay for extra parking because it was nowhere near as fast as my first visit. The wings this visit were crispy crispy crispy and the meat was extremely dry. Didn't have time to send it back so I just powered through. The flavors of the sauce were great still. The bar tender was friendly. I am torn on recommending this place because the first time I went was awesome but my second visit was pretty sub par. I'm nervous to go again and have if be like my second trip but might risk it cause the first trip was so good. read more

I am not sure what this place does to cook there wings, but I want to know!!! We saw this place had some great reviews and also had some TVs to watch the Texans game, and surprisingly it was hard to find somewhere downtown that would show the game, but I digress! Came in and it was a cool little vibe from the start! We came in on Halloween, so all the staff were dressed in costumes, which made for a fun time!! Our bartender greeted us quickly and served up some awesome drinks. As I made the order for wings, bc at this point, ya girl was starving, no time wasted on scouring the menu, I knew what I was there for, I went to order my wings with a side of ranch and she said they don't serve ranch only blue cheese!! The gasp I gasped!!! I was beside myself, as a Texan, ranch is my one true love! Haha anywho, blue cheese is their local dipping sauce for wings, so in my travelesque fashion of traveling like a local, I conceded to the blue cheese, and guess what!! I was not disappointed! The blue cheese was dare I say, pretty damn good, that it made me a believer in it! They make it in house, and it was perfection with the kick of the wing sauce! The wings were cooked perfectly and had a nice crisp to them, which they don't typically stay crispy when fried and tossed in a buffalo sauce, the vinegar usually tends to break down the crispy, but they managed to stay crisp with each bite! The fries were pretty great also, seasoned just right! As the night went on and we decided it was time to go, I noticed a sign that said arcade upstairs, so of course we had to go upstairs to check it out! They have a couple of different games up there and air hockey and I dominated on one of the games, so I'd say this place was a winner winner chicken dinner!! read more
