50 Best Chicken Wings in Columbus

“5 stars all the way around haven’t tried anything on the menu that isn’t great. When at work a few of us eat or grab coffee here everyday. I live in grove city and make a trip here for lunch with the wife on the weekends sometimes. Great people great food. Hidden gem for sure.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu“

“2 blocks away... I live near high street but was 2 late for the rock stars I'm used ta... boom frigging had no idea! The bacon!!! In mah moufff.... (cheese all over my table) I'll be back sir... ohhhhhh yes. - TRANSLATION - it's very good pizza.Parking: OFF of Indianola... So slow down as you approach, so you can scope the parking. We just parked out front, but it was 2 in the morning (yes they are open that late!)“

“Drove up from Dayton to check this spot out, as my husband and I love trying new foods. This did not disappoint! Those KFC wings were the best wings I've ever had. I would buy the sauce!! ? My husband thought the cheese ramen was okay- would try a different one next time, but all my food was delicious.“

“We are beyond impressed by the food, great owner, friendly chef, and fantastic experience at Golden Fried Chicken and Fish. This is the place if you’re looking for true southern-style fried catfish. My husband and I went here for lunch. There was plenty of parking and a steady flow of folks in and out for good reason. The owner, J.R., greeted us as soon as we walked in. He was very helpful, informative, and so nice. His staff clearly respects him, and he runs a great shop. It only took 10 minutes to get all our food steaming hot and fresh. I ordered the catfish dinner. My husband ordered the Golden Combo. Just, wow. The flavor on this is 10/10. The last time I had catfish this good was when we were down south. Golden Fried Chicken and Fish is the best catfish in Columbus. Great business, incredible food. We can’t say enough great things.“

“Came from Vegas to celebrate my granddaughters 8th birthday and she wanted to go here for her birthday dinner was EXTREMELY saddened when told they don’t do anything special for birthdays and when my server told me “ we would have to be doing those all the time” it seemed so corporate. I come from the hospitality capital of the world and in my 67 years on the planet have never been so hurt that I couldn’t provide this simple public expression of celebration. The desert they provided did not even come with a candle…this is a policy that needs to change…love the food and environment and the staff just not o fan of corporate policies“

“The cashier was patient as we looked over menu and ordered. The food was ready in a timely manner and packaged well for carry out. Good portions for the food too! It was the most colorful hibachi entree I have had, with the most variety of veggies than the few other places I have tried. And it came with some noodles and soup!!! We will be going back!“

“This location used to be a favorite of mine but I haven't been in awhile. Overall had a good experience. Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was great, the wings were nice & crispy, and I think this time I found a new favorite sauce combo of nukiller + Carolina gold (my always go-to is donkey+ garlic). If I'm ever in the area again I'll def come back to one of my favorite locations.“

“Me& My Family member's was Dining At , The Crispy Coop and we had Fresh Hot Chicken Wings and 4 pieces of Corn Bread. This Chicken was the best, Better than K.F.C. please try this Chicken ( Wings and Thighs are Very Definitely Delicious ? Moist & not Dry. You will be pleased.Parking: There was plenty of Free Parking Spaces.“

“My homie told me these are the best wings in the city! & he's probably right!!! The Carolina Gold sauce was the best sauce I've ever had?The wings aren't big. They're a perfect size & they were fried to perfection.“

“Yall give Trinity a raise! We have been several times to the new location and she is easily the best server we have had. She was attentive even though she was busy. Even when she didn't stop at the table I could see her looking to check on our table. she was freindly,prompt and kept the drinks full which is hard to do when you are so busy! She was super quick to handle a hair in the appetizer and replaced it immediately. As always we will be back and hopefully get Trinity again! Great food,Great drinks and now Great service!!!!“

“I have lived in Columbus,oh a long time and I had a taste for fish so I looked up reviews and let me tell you this place dis not disappoint!!! The food is amazing!!!! Let me tell you the fish is hands down just flavorful and delicious it will make you feel like you never had fish before. Im working my way towards the chicken but drom what the locals say its amazing as well!!!“

“This was my first visit to Roosters. Customer service was great! Ordered 10 traditional wings and tots, fruit punch. Everything was good except unfortunately they use chicken that has clearly been pumped with growth hormones and because of that reason I really couldn't enjoy the chicken wings.“

“Omg...I am still full..my friend and I visited the Henderson road location today around 530pm..we were greeted by a male staff member (so nice) who remembered us..We are frequent diners (either my friend and I or my brother, cousin and myself) ..I was shocked because it had been awhile..since we were there...well back to the experience...the server was so sweet and she too remembered us..our food came quickly...no lt only was it good ..but hot.. everything was mouth watering..had allot to take home..I have to give kudos the gentleman staff member and the wonderful server..for being so attentive and kind...thank you again..see you soon“

“I saw Canes sponsoring in NASCAR and figured I'd have to visit my local Cane's with some family. And I was impressed! Amazing chicken tenders, delicious french fries, and incredible texas toast. My soda was delicious also! One of the best Canes in the city of Columbus! "MMMM, CANES!" my cousin yelled as we left.“

“Ordered carry out on a crappy and super snowy Friday. Pizza was VERY good. Sauce is just right, pepperoni was spicy and delicious, and the crust was flaky, crispy, and cooked to perfection. Italian sub that I ordered was equally excellent! That bread is so good! Finally, I ordered an open face pizza sub. This was the absolute best that I’ve had! Again, bread is awesome, red sauce is fire, and that spicy old world pepperoni was just like it should be! VERY, VERY good! Six out of five stars!!!“

“The "Korean fried chicken" method and craze is taking off and this spot is up to the challenge. Numerous sauces to adorn your bird in and the establishment will let you sample as many as you like before making your final pick. I kept others in mind as my toddler isn't big on anything covered in sauce and neither is the misses so I got the GOLDEN ORIGINAL (plain bird) with honey garlic on the side. The side of sauce isn't that big and they charge $1.50 for it. The waitress told me that some not all of the sauces have to be made from scratch as ordered which maybe is a factor in the cost? I feel like if you order plain bird with sauce on the side then it should be free. I was curious about the CHEESELING FLAVOR, and didn't sample it beforehand so decided to get the CHEESELING fries instead. This was a unique tasting curiously DELICIOUS concoction. It's like a cheese powder that's sweet tasting that's dumped all over freshly fried French fries with a special red sauce and scallions. Think of that little corner of the bag of Smartfoods white cheddar popcorn powder at the bottom when you're all done and this is what it's like but sweet. I don't think I would've liked it sprinkled all over my chicken as it would've been overpowering yet good because they sprinkle a LOT on your food. Moreover there's a sort of sorcery and trickery with that CHEESELING powder. I noticed the next day when I went to reheat my CHEESELING fries this powder melts and turns into like a gooey cheese sauce and no longer remains in a powdery form! HARRY POTTER would be proud of this MAGIC! Overall it's a SOLID spot. I recommend trying different sauces and rolling your entire chicken order in that sauce as getting it on the side is slight ripoff because of the upcharge and little container. All the sides were good. Stellar customer service. Spacious with big booths and gloves to not mess up your hands while eating and TV's to boot. Last but not least no one in my group complained about any weird MSG feelings in their stomachs or what not like the OTHER COMPETITOR that's good also but in UPPER ARLINGTON if you catch my drift. This place is a MUST GO AND GIVE EM A TRY!!! We'll most definitely be back!“

“Beautifully done. Wine pairing was spot on, the dishes were elegant and creative and service was too notch.Was it worth almost $400 for 2 people... I'm not totally convinced. I've had better food for less, so 4 stars because of value.“

“Bruh.... 3 words..... CORNBREAD AND CHILLI ?On the run/ lunchtime -Small Xtra cornbread.Hungry or Dinner- Xtra cornbread xtra chilli.My new favorite place in Columbus. This is my favorite meal in the world and they serve it to literally perfection.“

“Please give a raise to whoever was your pitmaster on Tuesday April 16, 2024. The bark and juiciness of the meats was very, very good, and much better than what I’ve had on previous visits. Peppery, juicy, smoky, lots of flavor. Very, very good!“

“My wife has ordered delivery from here twice with no issues, which is a good sign that they know what they're doing when it comes to that. I had ordered a ham, pepperoni, and banana pepper Stromboli. I thought for 18 dollars was kinda high until I saw how big it was. You could definitely get two meals out of it, which is what I did. I almost got a sub instead, but I'm glad I got the Stromboli. It was good, and they give you plenty of marinara on the side to dip it in. My wife ordered a pizza, and I didn't have any of it(my wife ordered toppings i dont like), but it is the kind where they put the cheese on top. Overall, the pizza looked good, and as long as you don't have anything against the cheese on top, I'd give that a try as well as the Stromboli.“

“Food - 4/5Service - 5/5Ambiance - 4/5 (Only Outdoor seating available)Price - Mid RangeOrdered a takeout for 6 piece wings, and a chicken teriyaki sub. The wings were awesome, but the bread for the sub wasn't great. It felt very dry. The flavor was good though.Overall, it's worth a visit if you're around.“

“My favorite family. My favorite wings, burgers, Philly cheese, cheese fries. Greek salad. Chicken tenders (spicy garlic) the food is good & everyone who works there is family. Treat you like family and cook their food like they’d like to eat.“

“This Raising Cane’s isn’t any more or less special than any other. However, its proximity to OSU’s campus does create a lot of traffic. That said the staff work extremely efficiently to get to everyone’s orders ready promptly, even when the line is out the door at 1:30am on a Sunday!“

“Went here today for the first time. The gentleman running the window was so nice! The food was so good, and their fries are to die for. Also when it says large fries, it means LARGE! I got an extra large for me and the kid to share. I should have got the large. I look forward to going back!“

“Best wings I've ever had. Hubby and I are wing people and frequent BWW, roosters, wing stop, etc. Decided to try something new and so glad we did because we found a new spot. The staff was so friendly and polite, food was fresh and SO good, especially for the price. We got take out, but the restaurant was clean, and I can not stress how friendly the staff was, they were all smiling and the girl at the counter was so polite. Can't wait to eat here again.“

“Raising Cane's has good chicken and the best sauce! Make sure you order an extra sauce because you're gonna want it! There is often a line at the drive thru, but it's worth the wait. And the sweet tea is really good, and I'm from the South, so I know good sweet tea when I drink it. One of my favorites for ten years now. Highly recommended for fast food chicken.“

“First time ordering from here. WS not sure if they delivered to our address, but thought heck I'll give it a try. I think we found our new pizza delivery place. Great tasting food we just order two pepperoni pizza and spaghetti dinner meal. All the food was excellent.“

“Somebody on Facebook said y’all were better than Canes and as an avid Caniac I had to find out….and I’m not disappointed! The chicken itself was seasoned, the service was great everything was fresh. And who doesn’t love rewards!!! I’ll definitely be back because you guys did not “

“I loved bb.q Chicken Columbus! This was my first experience with Korean fried chicken. The chicken was covered in thin crispy batter bubbles that shattered in your mouth. The chicken was not only juicy, but the sauces that coat each piece elevate the explosion of flavor. We ordered the cheeseling, Gangnam and honey garlic chicken with a side of tteokbokki. The cheeseling was the most unique chicken flavor I've ever had. The chicken was covered in a cheesey dust, a coating so heavy that you have to be careful about inhaling too close to the wing. It took me a second to appreciate the flavor because it was so unique, but I feel in love quickly. In addition to the cheeseling chicken, I loved the tteokbokki. The consistency of the sauce was so velvety, it was almost like gravy. Even though it was spicy, it was rich in flavor that was sweet and tangy.“

“We've been ordering Frankie's for many years.It's our go to for guaranteed great pizza.The burnt ends are astounding! So good!!I'm not usually a fan of smoked food but the smoked wings are crazy good. Meaty with the perfect amount of seasoning.It's really hard to find good onion rings but theirs are way better than anywhere else.Tried the Dub Sub (Italian sub with double meat and double cheese) tonight and it is the best Italian sub I've ever had.And the funnel cake fries - yum!The only problem is deciding which items to get when we order since we can only eat so much! ?“

“I've been to multiple Roosters around the city. the food at this location is the BEST quality! I grew up on the north side and moved to the west side when i was older. I wasn't keen on this location at first because it is smaller than the others, but the service and quality out weighs that.“

“Staff was friendly, stopped by first time, for just a 'snack' of side dishes: Macaroni and Cheese and egg roll were delicious. As was the turtle brownie, a very, very tasty desert! Will try the cornbread and main entrees next visit!“

“I absolutely love and adore the food here the portions are huge the flavor is so bold it's very healthy with the hibachi shrimp comes with delicious rice ,cabbage and shaved carrots and additional toppings like zucchini are my favorite The staff are very friendly and so sweet and they have many food options and appetizers like egg rolls and crab Rangoon “

“I recently dined at Roosters and it was a fantastic experience! This was, without a doubt, the tastiest chicken I've ever had. The ambiance is beautifully done, capturing that quintessential American feel perfectly. Additionally, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole visit even more enjoyable. A must-visit for anyone craving a delightful meal in a great setting. Five stars all the way!“

“It's a great place to eat if you have a fear of complicated menus. Why? Because they have one of the most basic menus in the food world. The only difficult decision you have to make is how many chicken strips and fries you want to eat. The chicken is decent, the fries are good, their basic special dipping sauce is somehow addictive and I do not know why. I would probably get bread shamed if I didn't mention the bread is almost as good as the chicken. This particular location seems to have mastered the concept of providing the correct order each time. Congratulations!“

“Kabyle-Algerian Restaurant in Columbus.Thank you so much for the owner and his team who were very courteous, professional, and very welcoming. The food was fresh, hot, and very tasty. I would definitely be back for the famous Algerian Sandwich!Thank you again for the free chorba frik &bourek during Ramadan! May god bless your business with more success!“

“I've actually ordered from this establishment through Uber eats. I've also visited in person. I ordered the all meat pizza and it was delicious. I also appreciate how late they are open, especially on Fridays and Saturdays, yummy yummy yummy.“

“It's Roosters, if you live here you know and if you don't live here or haven't been then it's one of the better options for wings and bar food in the Columbus area. This location is very consistent, with food out quickly and friendly servers who did well with my very independent five year old.Parking: It's behind the restaurant, and if the main lot is full there's a lot for the big box stores just behind the main lot. You'll have to exit differently if you want to go left out of their lot due to how Bethel is set up.“

“The location is ok, but it's always the little spots that have some of the best food.. I ordered some fried chicken and fries, it was so good. I love whatever seasoning they put on top, and I got a piece of pie it's not like a homemade, but it had nice flavoring to it. I will be back for their fish“

“I always have delivery..so I could not rate the atmosphere..sorry..I usually get the works pizza..but I decided today to get a Italian sub and personal size works pizza for later..omg ..I am so full and satisfied from the sub..that the pizza is for tomorrow..so good and delivered so fast..thank you “

“The food and service are great. The food is well prepared and with great care. The staff is very attentive to needs; concerns and questions of customers. The ambiance isn’t all that it could be. It’s a comfortable place with a great view and far ahead of most college places on the strip. Ask for LayLay she outta sight and very cute for customer service!Vegetarian options: I’ve had Sweet Potato fries and Charred Bristle Sprouts not of which I highly recommend. More sauces would really jazz up the offerings and create a sense of having a wider menu. Something simple like Balsamic Vinegar or even Cold pressed olive oil with garlic. More nutritional value would be added. I think the students and more discerning customers would appreciate this given the nearby competition and the large number of fraternity and sorority houses in this vicinity. The new presidents office is also just upstairs.“

“I’m from New York and when I came to visit this place had the best wings I have tasted. If you are ever coming here for your first time to try out, I would definitely try the Carolina gold chicken wings and ask extra crispy. They are so good with barely any spice. Nashville hot rub is also good if you like spice.“

“That pizza is a hidden jewel! I honestly was looking for another place but it was well worth the mishap. I sat at the bar and had a beer while I waited for my food. The lady was extremely nice and pleasant to meet. The wife doesn't like big wings but she loves these wings with the awesome sauce. Worth checking out if you ask me.“

“Man I can't tell who is worse, people who LOVE raisin canes or people who LOVE chic fillet. They are both fine chicken lunches, but why do you ACT THAT WAY when talking about these places??? The big gulp cup of sauce is weird too. And I'm not trying to come off negative I really liked my lunch. It was perfectly adequate. I prefer French toast over Texas toast, but man why do people talk about this restaurant the way they do? It's gotta be a reaction to chic filet people. Or vice versa. I don't know what came first!! I usually get Diet Coke and that was pretty good.“

“DANG that's some good pizza! Never had Jet's before and I have to say, the staff was friendly. The delivery guy was really nice. The price I thought was reasonable based on other pizza places but when I got it, the pizza was way bigger than I thought it would be, generous with the toppings and fresh. Excellent value and taste.“

“I’ve had lunch and dinner a few times here, always carry out. The meat quality is really great and I’ve yet to be disappointed at the wings. The sauces have a great selection. Their seasoned fries are incredible and the regular employee I see there sometimes includes a courtesy sauce and/or drink for my wait. They are so sweet and I think the prices are good! Support them if you can!“

“Wow! What a great concept. Friendly owner/manager explained the process for us. My family of three ordered a single combo and a double combo including the most delicious milkshakes this side of the Nuthouse! This is not your average slider. We tried a variety and want to return for more. Only challenge was parking. There was a garage behind with a $5 minimum for up to 2 hours.“

“This place has solid wings and appetizers. Other than the wings I have not had much else off the menu so I can not comment on it. Both of my children don't mind eating here which is always a good thing for parents. The wings are better than BW3 but BW3 has better sauces so it is really a matter of preference.“

“Decent place for what it is. Time Management was horrible hence the 4 stars I waiting for about 15 mins for my food at the drive thru window. The cashier was very nice and sweet that's the only reason they got 4 stars because of her. The food was OK but again it's a fast casual food place so that is too be expected.“

“Stopped by today to try the chop cheese that was on special today...omg it was so good!!! Got the tots to go with it and as usual they were fantastic! I've yet to have anything there that wasn't delicious! So happy that this food truck is in your neighborhood!!!“
