I forgot to take pictures. Sorry. While visiting my daughter we ate at Wingster. It is a couple blocks from her apartment and she eats there often. We got gimbap, tempura shrimp, beef lomein, and dukbokki. It was too much food! The portions are generous. Their gimbap is great! My daughter really enjoyed the rice cakes and I've never met a tempura shrimp I didn't love. The beef lomein was very sweet, like bulgogi. I wasn't a fan but I prefer savory to sweet with noodles. The noodles had good texture and it was a huge portion. They advertise having bingsu. We didn't try it (it's cold outside!) but are excited to try it when summer comes back. The dining room is nice but we got our order to go so didn't stay to enjoy it. We had intended to get wings there but there were so many other things to choose from we got distracted. We will definitely go back to try the wings (and more gimbap!!!) read more

Not my favorite but it was 3 stars--or A-OK. The General Chicken was good but some of their menu items are odd. They have an AI cover of Miley Cyrus' Flowers on repeat for over 30 minutes inside the restaurant which almost made me lose it. read more

Only 3 tables. Had Korean dishes, chicken bibimbap and tempura rice bowl special. Very good food, the rice was especially good. Definitely will be back. read more

The staff was extremely kind and sweet! The food was also amazing. I tried the donkatsu lunch box and everything tasted amazing. All the food complemented itself well. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves Korean food! read more

Can you PLEASE CALL MY BOY DANNY I mean come on he's been waiting 45 min with the beef lo main. This is a real issue Daniel needs his food to provide for his family. read more

I walked in and not one person acknowledged me or came to take my order! Whoever was there working today Thursday at 2:20 was rude as hell! I'll take my money and my business elsewhere read more

I was in the area for a Dawgs game and needed to find a place for lunch. I had my friend guess a number 1-100 and he picked 27 which happened to be this place's ranking on yelp in our search - so off we went to Wingster. We ordered some wings and some tenders. The wings were def from baby or midget chickens. I've seen small wings before that didn't have a lot of meat on the bone, but these were small like they came from a sparrow. I liked the wild Carolina sauce, but felt bad afterwards because of all the baby chickens or sparrows I just ate. The only reason this place got 2 stars and not 1 is they have an incredible Buffalo Bills poster in the back by the bathrooms. It's a poster of Scott Norwood kicking a field goal in a super bowl with the phrase "Buffalo Ba-Da Bing!" on it. If you know anything about the Bills' super bowl kicking history, you would understand why this poster is so perplexing. If you're looking for tiny wings, a tiny TV, decent prices, and an amazing Bills poster, this place is for you! I'll definitely be back. read more

Wingster - I have really small hands and these wings still look mega tiny. RIP baby chicks. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Athens, Georgia

Always great! Also has korean snacks and ramen for sale which is awesome. The lady who runs it is so nice too. They also always play kpop which is fun ! read more

I WISH I COULD GIVE INFINITE STARS!!! BEST TTEOKKBOKKI EVERRRR!!! You have to try the korean food at this place, it is absolutely amazing and the service is even better!! Please give it a try, promise you it's worth it. Affordable and immaculate taste! Have been to korean places in duluth and they do not compare to the tteokkbokki served here, so much better. read more

Very Tasty wings. Open late. Perfectly solid phone ordering and pickup interaction. Couldn't ask for more.

It's a small business that has solid korean food. It's a shame it doesn't get more business because the food has never disappointed me. I love their kimbap, but they have wings and tteokbokki as well. Very understaffed business sadly. It's an older place, so the layout is a bit simple, but it gets the job done. I wish this restaurant had more publicity since Athens practically has no Korean food, especially good Korean food read more

Doesn't look much when you walk past, but the food is definitely great for a little night snacks with a bunch of friends. Although the location is a bit far from campus, my friends and i always enjoy a bit of a walk. Great place for students to grab a quick bite. Women in the front is also nice to us always. read more

Nice wing spot off of Baxter street. they have numerous flavors to choose from and their wings are consistently good. there is a small parking lot in the front. pretty cheap for a quick meal. read more

The tenders are actually tender. Wings have a nice crisp on the outside and many flavor options. We went with sweet Thai chile for the tenders which was fantastic. Lemon pepper for one set of wings was great. Medium buffalo sauce for the second set was perfect heat that the Anchor Bar (originator of buffalo wings) would have been proud of. Would definitely return, but would likely take to go. There are tables, but it doesn't emphasize the eating in experience. read more

I ordered a grilled chicken salad and southwestern chicken wrap for delivery. My delivery was over 30 minutes past the estimated hour and my delivery guy went to my old apartment address even though I had filled out my current house address with the order. I'm not a picky person at all and this is probably the first review I've ever written but the food looked like it would make me sick. The chicken was discolored and grayish brown. I hoped it was only the chicken in my salad but the fried chicken was also gray and tough on the inside. I also found a hair in my food. If there were some way to contact the manager through their website I would have done so but there was no contact information on their website. I'm a college student on a budget and it really sucks to "splurge" on delivery only to receive food that I wouldn't think was safe for my dog to eat. read more

Great wings and service!!! I tried for the first time and I'm here again two days later. Something about their Buffalo sauces just hits different. Prices are great as well! Perfect location for UGA students! If you haven't tried it, you are missing out! read more

The food was decent at best for a quick meal. But I've definitely had better. Spent the next day in bathroom, if you know what I mean. Shiiiiiiiii I ain't going back read more

Call me crazy but I came upon this little place beside Jimmy Johns and absolutely loved it. They have so much on their menu to choose from I usually get the number 1 (1/2 hot chicken tenders, fries, and a drink). I also love the donuts they serve here as well they are sooo good! The best thing about this place is that they deliver late and they will deliver pretty far so definitely check this place out if chicken wings are your thing. They also have a variety of asian inspired dishes and philly cheesesteaks as well. The only thing I don't like about this place and this is probably just me but they give you your drinks in a can...as weird as it sounds it bugs me. haha. Anyway, try this place out day or late night you won't be disappointed. read more

Wingster: quite possibly the greatest place on earth. The epicenter of food. The temple of customer service. I will live and die on the simple basis that this restaurant deserves at least 5 stars. The food quality is simple, yet amazing because it's done right Every. Single. Time. read more

Come on man the owners, the diversity gives me vibes of an old Chinese restaurant that sells bomb lemon Peppa Steppa's. It doesn't matter the time of day a 10 piece combo for $13 will always have a place in my heart. Love the owners and cashiers as they are always kind souled people.If you don't like the owners then I don't like you. Wingster runs for life. read more

Sure the wings are tiny, but they're good! And, given the price, there's really no reason to complain about the size. Just good to know before you go so you order enough. The sauce is unique and delicious- one of my favorite wing places in town, definitely the best if you want take-out. Here's why I only rate it 3 stars: the interior and atmosphere of this place is atrocious. The food is great, but I couldn't think of a worse place to sit and take in a meal. You'll see why if you go- dingy, always dark, uninviting furniture, weird vibe... Carry-out is a must. read more

We just finished what was probably the best wings I have ever had, here at Wingsters. We are traveling thru Athens on our way to Knoxville and decided we would eat a lighteer fare tonight! After reading several other reviews about the food here, we opted to give it a shot. While the decor leaves something to be desired, the food more than makes up for it. Of ourse the typical customer is a college student ordering out for delivery and the decor would not matter. Even with school out for the summer and business slow, there was no warmed up wings here. Everything was fresh and hot and the taste!!!!!! I had the #1 combo with jerk dry rub and if you have a chance, this is to die for! Captain B gives is one a huge 2 thumbs up! read more

The change in ownership has made a world of difference. Honestly I can say these are some of the best wings in Athens, and I have been here more then 20 years. Love the family behind it now. Looking forward to eating with them more. read more

This place rocks! I've read reviews that the wings were small, burned, and led to food poisoning. I've ordered from Wingster DOZENS of times and never had an issue w/ the last 2 claims. Yes, the wings aren't large; that's reflected in the low price--$13 for 20 wings when others charge $1+/wing. But, the wings are AWESOME, w/ lots of delicious flavors. Delivery usually takes 20-40 minutes, and carries a CHEAP fee; I've only had one incident of a long delivery of nearly 2 hours, but it was a busy weekend night and this business has A LOT of credit built-up w/ me, so, forgiven! Delivered fries are hit-or-miss--sometimes good, sometimes bad. I haven't tried the Asian menu. In-house cashiers have been great and very friendly. There's usually one elderly man of Asian descent running the kitchen; he is kind, friendly, and takes A LOT of pride in the cuisine that he produces. The place is a hole-in-the-wall, but that's part of the charm that lets you know it serves great food! I'm a restaurant manager, and I've NEVER witnessed anything inside this restaurant that would deter my loyalty in the future. I definitely recommend Wingster to anyone who wants great-flavored, low-priced, and perfectly-cooked wings! read more

First time trying wingster cafe. Caroline bbq sauce is great wings were small but really good.. love the fact I can get them deliver..

I used to love this location when I stayed in Athens 3 years ago...but beware! ROACHES big and small have overtaken this place! We went recently late one night after partying and the roaches were really bad. The cook and cashier acted like it wasn't a big deal and the cashier even went as far to say - "they ain't my problem" -- it's safe to say that I will visit American Deli or Sr Sol for my wing fix! read more

The wings are way Too small! We have some in our 30 piece that litera6looked like a fried bone. Their prices are decent but still not a reflection of the poor quality of the wings they serve. They should have at least put extra wings in the order. We have been here before and the wings were small but this time they were micro small. read more

I ordered here numerous times freshman year and have always been pleased with their food. I still do order here once in awhile as well. My favorite is the sesame chicken. It's about $6 bucks and pretty large portion. I always order ahead and it always takes less than 10 minute. Overall, it's a good place for some fast chicken dishes. Don't expect anything fancy though. Might be nasty to most, but it's a college place, what do you expect. read more

Place needs a serious cleaning. Food was actually ok, but I would be afraid to look in the kitchen. Dining area was hot with sticky chairs. Ants could be seen crawling on tables. A couple of lights over the tables were not working. Guy taking the order was not very professional and didn't really know the menu. Won't be returning due to the filthiness. read more

Have only had the boneless wings (chicken fingers?) and they are damn good. You get a ton of food and the price is awesome!

Small little place off of Baxter near the college. They deliver late and the campus gets free delivery. They have a variety of wing flavors and sandwiches, plus some Asian dishes. I usually get the number 1 combo: 1/2 lb chicken tenders with your choice of sauce (and they have dozens) french fries and a drink. The tenders live up to their name, and the buffalo sauce is always good. Definitely on my favorites list. read more

A lot of people complaining that the wings are too small. Personally, I haven't noticed. In my opinion they were pretty good wings with a lot of sauce. read more

Everything is good here for the money. The wings are a little small but I prefer them to the bigger ones and the price is very good. Great choice of flavors and the Chinese food is also a good option for that non-wing eating friend. read more

by far the worst wings place i've given my money to. the sizes of the wings were so small i thought they came off of hummingbirds. they were fried too long and dried up. never enough sauce on them, if you even get any sauce at all. only reason i'm not giving them a 1 star is because they seemed like nice people. went there a few years ago. and then just last week. nothing has changed read more

The wings are tiny and pricey but delicious. The Asian food is delicious. The mozzarella sticks usually taste burnt. They deliver with a cheap charge, but they have certain times during the week they wont. read more

With a new freshman at UGA, I'm learning the little restaurants around town whenever we go visit. Since this place is about a block from Jr.'s dorm, I thought I'd give it a try while waiting on his class to get finished. Worst wings I've ever encountered, nationwide. They were dry as a bone, yet hot as hell, temp-wise. I suspect they were made earlier, then thrown in the microwave to heat. While I ordered Lemon-pepper, there really was no taste at all. I spoke with the manager - clearly just a student - and he said that's just the way they are. It clearly would have done no good to ask him about the prep or cooking process. He was doing homework at the counter, and I don't guess I can hold him accountable. I did speak to another customer - the only other one there - and he said his meal was acceptable, but not great. Some seafood thing IIRC. I wouldn't go back if it were free. LOCO's is 40 yards away, and a much better choice. read more

3 stars because although the wings are beyond lacking in size, I appreciate and enjoy the variety of sauces and rubs. I have eaten here twice because of the convenience of the location, but both times I got tiny chicken wings! Probably won't be going back. read more

The chicken wings are always delicious and flavored good, only only problem with the chicken is it's too little needs to be a little bigger on the chicken wings other than that it's an excellent restaurant to eat in anytime. read more

Ordered delivery and 2 hours later...no food, no call. I call the place and apparently the food had still not gone out for delivery because "the people I work with are assholes." This was the reason the person on the phone gave. She was actually nice but still...waiting on my food with 15 bucks down the drain as the place closes. Guess I'll just have to chargeback on my credit card and go hungry for the night. read more
