    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!

    chicken bulgogi with radish, rice, ManDoo, bean sprouts an cucumber, and a order of tempura gimbap

    Great food‼ I ordered chicken bulgogi with radish, rice, ManDoo, bean sprouts an cucumber, and a order of tempura gimbap, & it was excellent the service is great, it may be a little wait if they're busy but it's worth it, especially eating in the store is a great atmosphere!

    I have really small hands and these wings still look mega tiny. RIP baby chicks.

    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.

    Tenders in sweet chile sauce.

    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.

The service was really nice, too. I sat at the bar to place my order, and luckily, the bartender was vegetarian and pointed me in the right direction when it came to choosing what to try. The collard greens weren't really my favorite, but the tots and mac & cheese? Absolutely delicious! Those were definitely the standouts for me. This is definitely a spot we'll be visiting again in the near future. My only wish is that they offered a few seafood options, but there were still plenty of things to enjoy. Parking is a little limited, but the area is very walkable, so that definitely helps. Overall, super cute spot, friendly service, and some really good food!

As it is, I'd still give them a 4.75 stars for such a lovely experience. I would still say you NEED to eat here if you are here on Sunday! Just be warned to wear not slip shoes! They actually take reservations for Sunday brunch, so that's already a plus. When we were running a bit late, Indie was truly a joy to talk with, and she made the change without a hiccup! Once we got there, she was even more welcoming and got us seated in no time. Before I explain my concern, let me make it clear that we will certainly be back when we visit Athens! The location is so close to the UGA campus it's a no-brainer. There was plenty of street parking around, including handicap, so it's easy to get to. While the front entrance is almost hilariously plain and non-descript, the interior is really beautiful!! I felt like we walked into a The Great Gatsby. My daughter was tickled by the ever-changing ticker sign over the bar. Everyone loved the stained glass and deep colors. Even the bathrooms were like being at Grand Central Station in the 20's. And the food!!! We tried all the classic Southern Soul Food staples, and they did NOT disappoint! From the fried green tomatoes, to the shrimp & grits, to an enormous French Toast, they put their foot in it!! Bravo! I have to note that the fried chicken is truly crave-able--crispy, juicy, & flavorful!! The fried green tomatoes were cornbread crispy and delicious! Fair warning that they do have a bit of a bite to them, so check with your littles. We appreciated that they offered egg whites in any dish with eggs, but I wish there was a non-pork substitute for some dishes. There's a vegan selection, but it's just not the same, so we didn't try it. Maybe next time! I lived my goat cheese omelette, and the portion was big enough I got to take some home with me. Just wonderful food all around. The beignets were divine! And it ended up being my daughter's birthday dessert/app. And then we just kept ordering more. Cannot say enough great things about our server--and my mind goes blank because I wish I could remember her name!! She was great the entire time for our whole 9-top group. She kept the waters filled, she cleared plates along the way, she was welcoming and engaging, and we just all enjoyed being here because of it. While we waited for some of our party to arrive, we were directed to a beautiful lobby adjacent to the restaurant. Unfortunately, the floor was exceptionally slippery--like an oily kind of slippery that is not conducive to an 88-year-old using a walker kind of slippery. I was a little worried for my F & MIL. The elevator is so far from where we needed to be that it wasn't worth the risk, so we chose to go up the 2 steps at the front entrance. Luckily for us, everyone was able to move around with care this time.

We were seated immediately at a bar next to the front porch with a view of milledge. We both ordered mocktails, a fresh lemonade and cherry lime spritz, both were delicious and although we don't drink I can bet my bottom dollar their cocktails are crafted and amazing. We started with corn fritters, raw oysters and seasonal peach salad. The only thing I didn't like was the chili in the peach salad, I heard another table request it without so I guess that's an option but I believe in tasting it how it's served. For entrees we did the fresh pasta dish and the fish. Both were creative and divine. The filling for the pasta was silky and the touch of nutmeg or cinnamon in the sauce made it next level. The fish was perfectly cooked and paired nicely with the coconut sauce. For dessert we chose a cherry cheesecake and peanut butter chocolate cake with grape jelly ice cream. I'm not sure if they have a pastry chef but it's been some time since I've had a dessert crafted with so much love. The quality latte we drank with them was the cherry on top. We've already invited our friends for dinner next month. 10/10 reccomend

Nestled in a gorgeous building that was once a residential house, the restaurant has a gorgeous and cozy ambience that makes you feel like you're visiting with friends from the moment you enter. The menu changes with the seasons, and I've never been less than impressed with the often-inventive dishes. I highly recommend starting with their cast iron cornbread. It sounds simple, but it's truly elevated. Right now, the sweet potato brown butter pierogies are absolutely mouth-watering, and the hazelnut bread pudding is rich and a perfect blend of sweetness and cream. The waitstaff is top notch and you'll receive better, more attentive service here than at restaurants with much larger price tags in Atlanta. They also have an impressive cocktail program and wine list. On the "it's the little things" list, the candles 5 & 10 uses in the restroom are outstanding! They sell them and they're spendy, but worth it.
