Not terribly impressed with anything here. Brought the kiddo in for lunch on the weekend and the bar had people in it but the seating side didn't. I think we were the only ones the whole time we were here. I would've gone to the bar side but there was a big sign that said no under 21 allowed. Wouldn't have been so bad except I finally had to go find someone who worked here to come serve us. It was seat yourself, so of course we did. And waited. The pretzel appetizer was really good and the curly fries were excellent. Really didn't care for the wings at all. Got breaded, and they weren't. Got hot, and it wasn't. read more

The best thing here is the soda. The service was miserable, my family of 4 got two orders of wings and didn't my get them for 30 minutes. Keeping in mind we didn't even get waited on for like 15 minutes. The wings weren't even that good for being a wing restaurant. They didn't have much flavor besides a hint of seasoning, they were in a soup of wing sauce, and overall, near impossible to even consume. We left. Probably never coming back. The only other decent thing there is the arcade games at the entrance, they look pretty fun. Overall ambience, LOUD. read more

Service was terrible. Placed an order online and it took 20 minutes past the "promised" time. Couldn't find someone inside for the first 10 minutes of waiting and when speaking to a lady was asked "what do you need". Food was terrible. Quesadillas were only 1/2 filled. Chicken sandwich was stiff and cold. Just awful. read more

Terrible service, placed a pickup order that elastic ready for 20 after time then the food tasted as if it sat under a hot lamp all week. Chewy and stale. I would give 0 stars if possible. Veterans memorial in Lafayette indiana read more

We've tried them a couple of times. Notging too great. Boneless wings were dry. Place is clean. Wait is usually kind of long to get your food once ordered. Don't waste your time or money. read more

Restaurant ran out of the usual buns and substituted cheap grocery store buns that were flat and grease soaked before my burger even reached the table. Very disappointing to say the least. read more

The wings are awesome and the service is wonderful, also the drinks they serve are top notch

The first impression was that the hand sanitizer actually had something in it, which was nice. Then on the way to our table the floor was sticky which was not nice. I ordered 7 boneless wings with BBQ sauce as I can't handle spicy food. For a side I ordered the tots with queso cheese. Also got the strawberry lemonade after the waitress suggested it instead of normal lemonade. My party of two also shared fried green beans. The green bean fries were cooked well, but they are a little strange. They didn't seem too greasy, so guess they are probably an acquired taste. Our food arrived in a decent amount of time, but the place got really busy right when we got our food and it took a while to get our silverware. I honestly think our waitress seemed a little overworked, so I don't blame her. The BBQ sauce was really hot for my tastes. It was really low on their heat scale but it was definitely too much for me. It would be nice if they had a sweet BBQ or something. After tip, the meal was almost $60 after tip which seemed a bit much for two meals. Overall, I think we may come back again eventually. It just might be a while and I'll have to try a different sauce. read more

Very slow. Been waiting for over 15 minutes for someone to pay attention since I finished my meal. No refills or to check me out.

Wings where so greasy had to wipe them off to eat them!that's how they are ! Ok!!! Two pieces of celery ask for two more was told it's extra ! I only ask because the ends where black one was even soggy' ok two carrots and that ok if that's what allowed kind of cheap ! Wings are pricey enough! Can you spare the carrot! O well!

The place is empty, and food still takes an hour to get. It's just an unenjoyable place and lost so much of its luster over the years. Even after the wait, the food was mediocre and 30 for 20 wings. Besides all of this, I dont think they are running the heat as the place is freezing. Go elsewhere you will find better even at Applebee's. read more

Extremely low effort wings. They didn't even fully toss them in the sauce, just poured a glob on top and brought it out. It also took the time to finish a pint before they even bothered to ask if i wanted a food menu. read more

Food tasted great, but $1.50 for a side of ranch?? Boneless wings are getting smaller and smaller over time. AND BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL BUTTERY MILD SAUCE! read more

For a place called wings you'd think they'd have good wings. Their wings are mediocre at best, even that's being generous. The beer selection is horrible also. Good place to get your Anheuser Busch products . read more

Wings Etc. does wings pretty well. They have a good collection of sauces and rubs, with a good range of spiciness. Service was good as well (although it was sometimes difficult to get a server's attention), and the beer selection had a lot of tasty choices. I also enjoyed the green bean fries, which were an interesting spin on the "fries" theme. Prices weren't awful, but not great. Overall, not a restaurant that I'm hugely excited about, nor one that made me want to cross it off the list. read more

This is one of the absolute worst restaurants in Lafayette. When I go to place and pay for food, I want food that's better that what I could make at home--my meal there did not meet this expectation. The price for the quality of food is ridiculous. Additionally, when I visited the 350 location they were understaffed and service was way slow. Our waitress made it to us well after we had decided what we wanted... I honestly don't know how this place stays in business. read more

Listen, I'm always going to try to be fair in my reviews and not just throw out recommendations based on my own personal preferences. The wings are not my favorite. I know that may sound weird for a place called "Wings Etc" but I like everything else that I've tried from the menu. Now, that's not saying that the wings are bad.... they're not. I just prefer my wings naked and with a slightly different kind of sauce. That said, the wings are decent. A bit pricey, but not totally out of line. I've tried a few different sauces (they offer MANY different options) and I like the 'tweener' sauce best. The fried pickles (chips, not spears) are fantastic! I've mentioned in a previous review that I'm a bit obsessed with fried pickles. These are really good. I've had them with Southwestern Ranch and Avocado Ranch. It's a matter of taste. The pickles themselves are really good. Rib tips are really good. I mean... REALLY good. I enjoy chewing on them. This is maybe my favorite menu item (behind the pickle chips.) I've also had a few different hamburgers, and I've been impressed. The bar is decent. I've gone in to have a drink or two while I'm waiting on food, and I've been satisfied. There are usually some regulars at the bar, and they may give you the eye for intruding, but it's not too bad. The bartenders know what they're doing and can make a decent drink. Overall good place. The wings aren't my very favorite, but they aren't bad, and this is based on my preference for wings. The other menu offerings are good, and enough for me to recommend this restaurant. read more

This brand-new restaurant has opened on the southside of Lafayette, and I'm glad it's there. We need this kind of sit-down, smoke-free restaurant on the south end. I have visited Wings Etc in other cities. You might think it's a B-Dub's knock off, but it's not. The menu includes not only wings, but burgers, wraps, salads, subs, sandwiches, ribs, and seafood. At this location, I stopped in for carry-out. I'll update my review once I have sampled the sit-down service. Because this is a new place it's a clean as a whistle. The bar area is completely separate from the dining room, with it's own entrance off of the lobby, so this really is a family friendly place. The staff that I interacted with during my carry-out experience were friendly and helpful. You do need to go into the bar to pick up carry-out, so don't send your 16 year old to pick up. I ordered the boneless chicken wings, which are really just large, breaded chicken nuggets with sauce poured on them. They were cooked correctly and tender. I opted for the BBQ sauce on the mild end, but it still had a tang to it. Again, I'm glad this opened on the south side and I'll be intentional in including it in my dining excursions. read more

This location lets you seat yourself. The waitress got our drink orders after a couple minutes and gave us plenty of time to look over the menu. We got the spinach artichoke dip as an appetizer (delicious!). I ordered 10 traditional jumbo wings with spicy jerk and tweener sauces. The sauces are great but the wings just taste like bar wings and weren't really seasoned. I also had curly fries, which would've been good with just ketchup, but I wanted nacho cheese. The cheese wasn't that great or as melty as I like it. Overall, the meal and service was great but this won't be my go-to wing spot. read more

I will give the good and what needs improving in this review. First the good: their food is great. I love the Wall sauce as I'm someone into spicy food. I also love their jalapeño cheese bites w ranch dressing. Don't ever get rid of those. And now what needs improved: the past two times my family and I have gone there to eat, it takes 8-10 minutes to get someone around to take our order. Neither time they were busy. One time the girl asked if we had been helped... yet she was the only one working. Another time after ordering online, I stood in the dining room for several minutes waiting on staff to show up. Finally someone came by and I stated that I placed an online order. I had my toddler child with me and the girl told me that "online pickups are through the bar." I motioned to the minor, toddler child I was holding and she says, "oh don't worry about that, you'll be fine." As this was happening, another male employee who looked like a cook comes by, overhearing and asks my name. He goes and gets my food and plops the bag onto a table from probably a foot in the air. He rung me up like I was really getting in the middle of his day. A bad attitude to say the least. It would also be nice if management made their employees look more clean cut and hygienic. The whole dirty uniform and beard look doesn't instill confidence in my dining experience. And as the photo shows, maybe they could completely cover my chicken with sauce. I'll keep coming here (for the time being) because I like their food, but they have a lot of area for improvement. Mainly employee conduct and appearance. read more

Table for 15 and everything was right! Ask for Kinsey & Gabby they did a great job and were very attentive the entire night!!!!!

This is the worst experience I have ever had at a wing place. Table was covered in not fully wiped up beer from the previous patron, waiter lost my order and had to take it a second time, they forgot one set of my wings, another set of wings came out bare with no seasoning or sauce, and when I ordered a second beer, I got the check, finished my meal, and completed paying before they brought it despite me paying. Would not recommend. read more

First of all, I just want to put it on the table. The wings are, in the words of my younger, douche"y" brother, "fire." But he doesn't come here. So don't worry about douches. My wife and I tried 4 flavors. All were delicious. Not sure if we were lucky or that all the flavors are the "troof." (My brother suggested I learn how to communicate with the kids more effectively) We also had a burger that was just short of the best non-grilled burger I ever had. I tasted bacon. I tasted jalepeños. But most importantly, I tasted love. I wanted to break the hands of the man that cooked it so he could never create something so beautiful again. Our server, Zack, was very helpful. He helped us select our flavors of wings and beer. I'm not sure how much Zack earns here but it's not enough. This kid is a straight shooter with upper management written all over him. Of course, I don't like to embellish. The only thing I could really criticize was the lack of selection from the beers on tap. Too much domestic crap. If I wanted draft Budweiser, is just buy some barley and run some sink water over them into a glass at home. So if you don't mind some cheap draft beers, come here for some good eatin'z. read more

Some people love the wings here, but after visiting a couple of times, I really would rather drive the extra 15 minutes to go to Buffalo Wild Wings. Their mild sauce is a butter sauce. The medium sauce is also mostly butter. My friends tried several different sauces, and none of them commented about any being particularly tasty. I ordered medium boneless wings and when they got to the table, I genuinely thought they had forgotten to put sauce on them. The curly fries with cheese sauce were great though. Beer prices are okay, but they also don't have as big of a selection as you can find at other places around town. TVs are all around, but no really big screens if you are looking for a place to go watch the game. Our waiter was friendly and accommodating. No complaints there! Overall, if you're trying to go get beer and wings and watch the game, go to Buffalo Wild Wings instead. read more

This restaurant has gone thru some ups and some downs in all aspects since opening on the South side of Lafayette. I still find the boneless wings better than B-Dubs and my wife still enjoys the traditional wings more as well. My problem is with the service. On my latest visit, ordering take-out, the bar area where you pick up the food was empty. One employee clearly saw that I was waiting for something, yet chose to continue her conversation with another employee. The bartender was no where to be found for a good couple of minutes. This is one of the before mentioned "downs" i was talking about. The two points that angered me the most and could very well be a deal breaker on whether I visit this store again is one, my large order was crammed into one bag, making it difficult to carry without spillage, and two, my order was missing an order of curly fries. Missing food from an order is something I expect from a fast food drive-thru, but not from this type of establishment. Again, this restaurant has been more good than bad but has started to fall in quality over the last couple of months. I will probably continue to visit due to the proximity to my home, but I will no longer trust the employees to get my order correct and will check prior to leaving. read more

Went in for the first time on wed. Not very busy. Server did a good job. Got boneless wings and they came out way over cooked. I could tell as soon as the server put them in the table. Only ate half of them and decided it was time to leave. The loaded fries came out great. read more

The female manager Erica was very helpful seemed to all over the floor checking on guest and being attentive to the servers and kitchen staff. The food is always a plus it's wings how can you go wrong! Caribbean Jerk tradition style wings are my absolute favorite. Love the franchise in general read more

Food was tasty. Service was good. Atmosphere was nice. We had a large table and everything was good except my brother noticing that I didn't leave a tip. I should have spoke up and let him know not to leave an extra tip. (18% gratuity was on the initial bill automatically because of the table size and then the slip you sign if you put it on a card has another place for an extra tip) read more

Way better than B-Dubs!! Comparable to rooster's in Ohio :-) Try the medium sauce in boneless wings...om nom nom!! read more

My son ordered a well done burger. It came out medium. They apologized and took it back along with the side of fries. About 12 minutes later another burger comes out with no fries. My child cut into the burger and it was medium again. Asked for the manager who stated" I sat and watched my cook make the burger for 15 minutes and I'm sorry" then continued to make excuses that when kids stopped going to Purdue because of corona, they have no good staff. Ya all my son is 12 and can grill his own well done burger, but apparently a grown adult person can't figure it out. So he was not offered a well done burger again...no they refused to make him a correct burger. He had to order something completely different becuase apparently it's much too difficult to make the easiest temperature burger that can be cooked made. read more

This place has gone down hill so fast. I'll never order from them again. every single time we order there, our order was completely wrong. And was over an hour before out food got to us. I understand that everyone is short staffed, so the time thing isn't a big deal. But getting an order wrong every time (we ran into 2 people waiting because of their orders being wrong as well). It's unfortunate because their food is really good. read more

Ate at Wings Etc today and sat on the bar side . Had the BEST service from the bartender named Brittany ! She was so pleasant.. had several recommendations of food choices and was so warm and friendly to everyone she served and worked with ! If I could give her 10 stars I would ! I will be back to see her soon . read more

We went to this Wings because its close to our house. We walked in to the dining area and waited to be seated. No one came. After a considerable amount of time, we finally went into the bar. Hoping to get some service. Sat ourselves. A man came out from the back, looked at us and walked back to the back. Two waitresses walked by the back door behind the bar, looked at us, then continued to walk away. This has happened to us several times at this location. Never had a problem at the Meijer location. Its a pity because Wings Ect is one of my favorite restaurants. I've been eating there since they first opened in South Bend. I will not be going back to this location any more. I give this location about one more year before they are closed. read more

The only thing that gives it this rating is the boneless wings that are good but that is about all I can say about it that is good. I have been there twice and the waitress is about as friendly as a rattle snake:( For the prices that I paid I would have thought they could have afforded real plates but that was too much to ask. My wings looked liked they had been cooked and then then the sauce was just dumped on top instead of the wings being coated in the sauce. If you want good wings and do not mind horrible presentation and service go here. If you actually want to have a good environment go somewhere else because you will not get it here! read more

Some ups and downs, but overall worth the trip. I thought the BBQ sauce was a little thick and lacking just a little flavor. The onion rings could have been cooked just a little more. Cheese sauce was very salty. Boneless wings were about average. However, the jalapeno cheese poppers use diced peppers, which make eating them a lot easier, and perhaps not as messy. Pork tenderloin was good. Curly fries had nice seasoning. Last, but not least, exceptional burger. Could be one of the top five in Lafayette. Friendly and prompt service. read more

I have been to this restaurant twice lately and will not be back. Last night i ordered fish and chips and they brought fish sandwich and the waitress tried to tell me they dont have fish and chip. fish was greasy and tasteless. i sent it back and waitress said the manager would come to the table. The manager did not come by but they did take the fish off the bill. Poor waitress was embarrassed. Gave her a nice tip but manager neglected us. read more

I placed an online order tonight for my wife, my daughter, and I. I was quoted a pickup time of 5:36pm in my email. I showed up exactly at 5:36pm (with the intention I might have to wait a few minutes due to being somewhat close to dinner time, possible staffing issues, COVID-related issues, etc). They had 1 waitress/server on the restaurant side and 3 on the bar side. I did not receive my food until 6pm. I get home and lone behold, I'm missing a kids meal for my daughter. They managed to give me the drink for it but not the food. I call the restaurant (no answer, went to voicemail). Call again, get transferred to a manager, I think his name was Nathan? I informed Nathan I ordered 4 bone-in wings and curly fries for my daughter and they weren't in my bag. He says, "okay, I'll have it ready". I show up, and they are even busier now than before, still 1 server/waitress on the restaurant side and 3 on the bar side. Bar side was not busy at all, maybe 3-4 tables out of the 15 they have. I go to the bar side to inquire about my missing food and was handed a bag from who I assume was Nathan. No apology, no words were spoken from this man, so I took my food and proceed to exit. Stopped 5 feet after receiving my food, and had a hunch. Yup, they gave me 4 boneless wings instead of bone-in. To have an itemized list/order of food and to completely omit 1 meal for an order should be unacceptable. To not apologize or even offer to comp a missing meal could've saved future business from me. There were 3 parties still waiting to be seated as I left and encouraged them to leave while they can and avoid the clown show. They all left. Felt like that was my good deed for the day, I saved those families from having a terrible dinner experience at what USED to be one of my favorite places to enjoy. read more

Sunday was our third visit to this restaurant. The first visit, I thought the wings were tough. Meat did not fall off the bone. This last time will definitely be our last.The boneless wings in the kids meal had more breading than chicken. The kids wouldn't even eat it. The breaded loin seems not to be a piece of pork; appeared more like processed tenderloin. Our server was very good but failed to tell us refills on our drinks cost extra. Our bill was exceptionally high. This may be a fun place to meet friends in the bar. But, it is certainly not one of the better places to eat in Lafayette. Won't go back. read more

Well always remember to see yelp reviews before going to a restaurant. I would not have even eaten here if I saw the reviews. Like everyone else this place needs some work! The place was dead first of all on a Sunday at 6. Probably should have been the first sign not going be great experience. The food took forever to come out. There were five of us. I ordered wings all flats and it was not all flats. My husband orders "grilled" chicken Caesar salad which came with crispy chicken and not grilled as the menu describes. The waitress said that is always how it comes out with crispy chicken. Humm the menu clearly states grilled. So had to wait for another salad. Said would take 7 minutes. Definitely took longer then that. We have been to other Wings Etc and this one is not up to par at all. The waitress was fine BTW. read more

Slow service and mediocre food the three or four times we've been here. We won't be back.
