My wife and I have been visiting Wing Stop since we discovered it back in our home state of Ohio. When we moved to Illinois, we were thrilled to see there was one in Aurora. We've visited this location about 3 or 4 times. The other three times were OK, but our experience on yesterday was very angering.
I called in an order of 10 Louisiana rub wings. Went to pick them up, but had a difficult time finding the restaurant in the plaza. For a second I thought they moved to another location and failed to update their address. It was slightly better, but still a bad professional example... Their sign wasn't lit. If I couldn't see it in the parking lot, I'm sure potential customers from the street won't see it. (The owner of this franchise needs to correct this)
The main issue is the size of the wings. They were literally the size of one of those mini flashlights you carry on your key-chain! Barely any meat at all! "Can I have some meat with my chicken bones please?" My wife called to voice her concerns and the person on the phone told us they've been getting complaints about this from several other customers because the wing distributor they switched to only sends them "little wings." I'm all for non-genetically modified wings, but I doubt Wing-Stop sources organically. What's more concerning is that with multiple complaints about the same issue, this would be a cue to correct the problem. Oh no, not here.
Frankie (male), the manager of the location called back and said there was nothing that could be done even though it's a known issue! To serve wings an infant would be hungry after eating, be argumentative on the phone with my wife and lose a customer (as they have) shows that this franchise isn't concerned about customer service or quality food. They told my wife there was nothing they could do because the food was already eaten. We live about 20 mins away from this location and I wasn't going to drive back that evening as it was a long day at work.
Nothing they could do as the food was already eaten huh? Well, I had a poor food experience with Pub 56 the other day where their beer battered cod wasn't cooked all the way. NOT ONLY did they apologize for the inconvenience, but they allowed us a free order the NEXT DAY for more than what the ORIGINAL order was worth!
If I do go to Wing-Stop, it won't be to this location. I'd rather go to the Naperville location which is out of my way, but I'm banking on a better experience. The Aurora location's customer service, quality and professionalism are all... TERRIBLE.
Stay away from this location. It's no wonder this location is struggling. read more
