If you have not tried Wing Kyng, I need to you ruuuuuun. This place is amazing. Those wings are so perfect and crispy EVERY time. And don't get me started on that garlic sauce and Nanna's banana pudding was astounding. I've never had banana pudding that good before. This is a MUST try! Service is always great & it's a relaxed vibe inside. They also have tables outside you can use. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

I stumbled upon this establishment while venturing to the Greyline Station for the Wednesday evening Farmer's Market. If you're not familiar with the Greyline Station, it's a former bus depot which has been transformed into a miniature mall of sorts, with numerous vendors located inside, and I had read a sign that they hold a Farmer's Market on Wednesday evenings from 5:00-7:00 pm. The facility has an accommodatingly large parking lot with plenty of spaces. Nowwwww, to the REAL reason for this review! Once I parked and exited my vehicle, I smelled the most amazing fried chicken, and immediately searched for the source of such an enticing aroma. As I walked towards the building, I saw two nice gentleman sitting outside of the building, near a sign that said Wing KYng, and AHA, SCORE, I found the source of the wonderful fried chicken aroma! Those two gentlemen happened to work in Wing KYng. I told them once I procured my one sought out item in the farmer's market inside the building, I would be returning to procure some of that chicken. Upon my return to Wing KYng, I began asking my typical questions: do they have anything gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, and egg free? The staff member was very knowledgeable and advised me that the dry rubs were my best option. I have a myriad of food sensitivities, so I browsed the dry rub options available, and chose a 6 piece chicken wings with Lemon Pepper dry rub. O M Goodness!!Fabulous is the first word to come to mind! The skin was so delectably crunchy, the chicken was moist and tender, and the flavor was perfectly balanced! The cost was $12.00, which is a great price in my mind for the best fried chicken I've had in a good many years. Although I cannot speak to these items, they offer a wide variety of flavors, dips, and Parmesan coated home cut French fries as well. I witnessed one staff member actually cutting the potatoes for the French fries. Truly nice folks work here, and the chicken was phenomenal!!! I will be returning here for sure! read more

Such delicious wings. It can be a little hard to decide, based on the dry rubs, mixes, and names. The potatoes are always so nicely sliced and loaded with garlic. Food can take a little longer to come out especially if the line is a little longer (they get pretty slammed at times). But it's fine since you can just hang out or wander around Greyline. read more

The BEST and I mean THE BEST wing in Lexington. Their rubs and seasoning are on another level! Their potatoes and magic wing sauce is to die for!! And don't even get me started on their ranch, straight gas! If they were closer to me, I would easily stop by once a week. 10/10 recommend going read more

Have to give it up for great service; my food was delayed, so they apologized several times, gave me about 4 times as much as I ordered(!) and a free cookie to make up for it. Don't see that service very much anymore read more

A Lexington hidden gem! I've been a regular at the KYNG since they were in the back of the strip mall over on Southland. Best wings in the city, hands down. Great staff, they always get you right! read more

Delicious! Hands down some of the best wings in Lexington. Our wait was a little long (busy), but so worth the wait! The wings are big, cooked to perfection, and some great sauces!! I also got the potatoes with the garlic parm. I learned later you can choose your sauce for the potatoes. The staff was so nice and asked how everything was (it was our first time). For a small spot this place has big flavor, big heart, and just amazing! I can't wait to go back and try some of the recommendations from the staff (hot honey, buffalo lemon pepper). If you're looking for a new wing spot - you've found your place here! read more

Disgusting. Over cooked, seasoning was bland. Dry Parking is a challenge as well. There are so many other good options in Lexington. Just go there. read more

I went here in Black Restaurant Week earlier this year and had some good Wings. They are also partnered with The Salad Bar restaurant. So it was pretty cool being able to get both wings and a salad. The 2 workers were nice and got my order out in reasonable amount of time. I got whatever the week special was, don't remember what flavor that was. It was definitely decent! Small place, it was in Greyline Station though so much bigger area to eat. I forgot to take a pic of the wings. read more

These wings were amazing and so many options to choose from. Big giant meaty wings and the staff was super nice

Great sauces. The wings were cooked perfectly with the crispy skin and juicy meat. I got the Eazy's World and Nasii Drip sauces. Both were real good. The potatoes had a garlic sauce that was real good, too. I'll be coming back for sure. read more

I'm a boneless wing gal and these wings were absurdly good. Seriously. Spicy and saucy! Staff was AMAZING - friendly and helpful with narrowing the choices (there are SO MANY!). Heard amazing things about the banana pudding but it was sold out. Will visit again! read more

Wing KYng! Glad I stopped in for lunch. As it was my first time here, the Signature DirtBowl Classic flavor was recommended based on my liking of sweet and spicy. Flavorful! In my opinion. I ordered the 12 piece dirtbowl classic - a jerk flavoring with a sweet side to it via carolina bbq. They have the classic flavors as well if you prefer. The service was great and there was a short wait for a fresh batch of wings! The atmosphere is welcoming and friendly. I took my order to go but there are a few tables forveating in. Next time I am in town, I will try a variety of flavors! I recommend this place. read more

I searched for a highly rated restaurant in Lexington, KY while on a business trip. In preparation for game one of the 2023 World Series, I thought I should eat in my hotel room and not go to a sports bar since no one would care about if the game was on or even less if the Rangers would win or lose. I follow my own Yelp rules. Search for a place that has many reviews and is highly rated and you can't go wrong. Wing KYngs was both. I drove a few miles and walked into a clean nondescript brick building right into a wall of delicious smells. I asked the cashier to help me make a decision. She suggested two sauces: the General and Garlic Spice. I agreed. No fries just 9 jumbo chicken wings on the bone. Fast forward to sitting in front of the tv back at my hotel watching baseball. Hot. Fresh. Savory. Sweet. Happy. read more

Craving Hot Wings, this place DEFINITELY took care of that!! Had the Buffalo Wings & a large order of the Garlic Parm potatoes. We will definitely return for more! read more

Big crispy wings in which I like. I got buffalo, dirt bowl, skywalker wings. Idk which was which on the last two it wasn't labeled, but one taste more like Jamaican jerk or island wings, so idk if they got my order wrong or what. Potatoes where avg a little over bearing. Buffalo wings where lacking some flavor. By no means was it horrible but not the best wings in Lexington at all. read more

Had to wait 40 minutes for 12 wings and potatoes and they didn't even add the garlic sauce to the potatoes.

I'm going to come back and write a longer review when they have an actual page, but when I say these are the best wings we've ever had, I genuinely mean it. My husband orders wings from around town every year on his birthday (we call it "wingstravaganza" :)) but this year I think he has decided it is going to be all Wingkyng instead - it is that good. I don't have any pictures because we literally ate everything so fast I forgot. I even called the owner after we had a few bites to tell him how much we loved it - it was that good. Stop looking up reviews and just order it - now! :) read more

Only average in quality and prices are way too high. They seem to have many sauces! The blue cheese is salad dressing. Containers are weak and fall apart without labels. The website looks nice but I would go elsewhere. read more

Food amazing. All the flavor is there and the service is always respectful and worth the wait!

So this is the FIRST TIME of my review of Wing KYng. First off this place is in a very niche location nestled on the side of Greyline station; however it should be front and center. This isn't just a wing place this is ambrosia in chicken form. I was wanting wings for the past week, and I found this place by looking through Help, and it did not disappoint. I ordered the lemon pepper wings and was given the garlic, Parm potatoes, and I also ordered bananas pudding. The wings were amazing and I ate them as fast as I could smell them. Would highly recommend the wings and then the potatoes were amazing. (They were a little cold, but that was due to probably sitting out for a while before being served) However, Nana's pudding was amazing. The owner and the cook were both very welcoming she was a nice young lady and spoke very highly of the owner. (Apparently he has only been in their for 7 months/but been cooking wings for 7+ years) it's amazing and I will definitely be coming back read more

Best wings in town! Great service. Glad they moved to my side of town. Skywalker and Dirt Bowl Classic are the best sauces you'll find!

Hands down the best wings I have ever had. The wings are huge, crispy, juicy and well doused in the flavor you order. I had eazys world and sky walker and they were both delicious but loved eazys world a little more. I will only be ordering wings from this place from now on. read more

I'm a bit of a wings connaisseur. So my 4-star rating is actually very, very high. The wings were large and tasty. Some of the very best in Lexington, and the take-out service was pleasant and professional. I will order from there again when I crave wings. (Note: drive around back, and look for the door with the Southland Bagel sign.) The reason for 4 stars, rather than 5 stars, is that the skin was not quite crispy, which is all too common in Lexington, particularly for take-out. I think wings need to be placed under a low broiler for 2 minutes in order to get to turn out truly Great. read more

The wings here are the best I've found in the area. The sauces are unique and tasty enough that I've found ones I love but have to keep trying others because they're all just so good. The Dry rub is incredible. If your not sure if hat to get ask the workers for recommendations that's how I got put on that Skywalker sauce. 10/10 telling all my friends about this place. read more

Not to brag, but I'd consider myself a sort of semi-pro connoisseur of wings. I like em all. Smoked, baked, fried, buffaloed, etc. I'm a particular fan of wings with a hotter twist on the original Buffalo. So, naturally, I walked from Pasadena Dr to Southland at 10 PM on a warm summer night with my wife (who is 9 months pregnant). We sat by the dumpsters around back of Southland Bagel while the food was prepped. And to some this may be a turn off, but to me it made my expectations rise even higher. To be concise, my expectations were met plus some. These were some of the best wings I've had in my life. Steaming hot out the fryer, perfectly crispy. I got the Triple pepper blend mixed with Buffalo which was the perfect mix of scorching heat and classic, savory Buffalo. I didn't catch the owners name as he walked out to greet me with my food, but I'll be sure to do so when I go back soon!! read more

My only regret is that I didn't snap a picture! Without any doubt, these are the best wings in Lexington. I can put back some wings but after eating 9 of the garlic parmesan and potatoes, I'm in a food coma. It was cooked to perfection and the sauce was rich and you could feel the love. My son ordered the spicy lemon pepper and he's laying on the couch trying to recover from the itis. These are exceptional wings. Located in the back of Southland bagel, (they're a food commissary for new food businesses w/ 100% inspection rating) you pick up the wings like you're going to a secret place that only you know about. Drive behind the liquor store to the back of the stores, park at the Southland Bagel double doors and walk in to grab your order. There isn't a sign yet. This is a local business creating some amazing food so you'd be crazy to give your money to some wing franchise when this man is COOKING IT UP! I don't leave reviews often but when I do, I mean it. Check out Wingkyng, order some wings and potatoes and you better be hungry. read more

The flavor of wings is phenomenal!!! 10/10 I got the hot lemon pepper & Louisianas Cajun honey mix . Would post a pic but it's bones now

Awesome. This is actually one guy out of the back of a bagel restaurant doing what he loves. Mans is passionate about his food and you can taste it. Juicy, crispy, flavorful wings. It's a little sketch going in the back to get your food but it's worth it. I ordered very late and called to make sure that he could get to my order before he closed. He said "you put an order in, imma honor it". This man loves making wings and wants you to eat them!!! Could not recommend it enough. read more
