29 Best Chicken Wings in San Francisco

“Please do yourself a favor and try their wings. Absolutely delicious. Super crunchy and full of flavor. They claim to have to hottest wings in the Bay Area. I’m too much of a chicken but I dare you.“

“I love a no frills all attention on the food type of spot and thats exactly what I found at Hot Sauce and Panko while traveling through SF. The chicken wings were crispy + delicious and the waffle was buttery + fluffy. The next time I'm in the area I'd easily go out of my way to grab a bite there again.“

“It's packed and it may take bit to be seated. You write your name and party size on the white board.

The dry fried chicken wings are the best chicken wings I've had. Juicy and crunchy with a nice sweet glaze. The green beans, dry black bean sauce noodles, and hot braised chicken were all good but the dry fried chicken wings were the standout!“

“Park at Whole Foods and get your parking validated“

“10/10 good and staff. It's a hole in the wall but that's fine. Yeah it's in the tenderloin but get over it. We had dry winds with buffalo on the side and garlic lemon wings. Both were amazing. My buddy got some garlic fries that I'm still feeling stinky from and it's the next day. Delicious.“

“Been coming here since 2020, I absolutely love this location. Great food and beer selection. Its also nice to be able to sit outside and still get audio for whatever game is playing. The only thing I miss (and I do miss it dearly) are the roasted half chickens they used to do here.“

“Delicious pizza, friendly people! 🙂“

“It’s my first time here today, my mom and I are both very satisfied with our impromptu dinner. We ordered the Galbi Jjim in medium spicy. The portion is very generous, the standard serving already included cheese, rice cake, glass noodles, and plenty of radish-carrots-potatoes! The meat was tender and flavorful, perfectly cooked and served on a cold winter night. We had leftover for another meal. ✌🏼“

“I highly recommend this store“

“Small intimate spot. Very friendly staff fast service and ordering wasn't an issue an as soon as you place your order it goes in so foods coming out very very timely manner! S/O to ochoCinco we came because of his mention on nightcap! Great recommendation it was very very good! The gentleman with the Dreeds lightskin brother was fantastic a the Spanish server as well everyone solid! I'll be back!“

“What a fantastic spot in the financial district! We were staying in town for a wedding, and this was such a great spot close to our hotel. Patrick (the owner) and his team were all a 10/10! Can’t wait to return.“

“Love Foghorn on Balboa! It's my husband and I's favorite spot to go to after work to grab beer and a bite to eat. The craft beer list always has great options and if you're a chicken fan, this place is for you. Their chicken sandwich, wings and tenders are so delicious! They also have Nashville options if you're looking for some heat. The atmosphere is awesome, it's a casual, laid back spot thats good for groups, bringing kids, and/or just grabbing a cold one with a buddy!“

“Good eats and beer selections.“

“Nice place to watch sports“

“This place is great! Staff was cool, food terrific and they support Meals on Wheels. Super place!“

“Nice spot with 2 of my favorites items - ramen & boba. The food was pretty good, and you get to choose the type of meat in your ramen. At the end they gave us mango sorbet, what a nice surprise.

Popcorn Chicken ($8) - we had mixed reviews from my party. I liked it and thought the sauce was good.

Black Garlic Oil Ramen ($18) - nicely presented dish but flavor-wise I liked my friend's Spicy Tonkatsu more. The egg and chashu were ok.“

“Korean Soul Chicken was absolutely delicious. We ordered the fried chicken, which was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I also had the BBQ pork, and it was tender and full of flavor. The potstickers were amazing, crisp, fresh, and not greasy at all.

The service was excellent and very attentive. The food was super affordable and everything tasted fresh and well made. I would definitely recommend“

“Been coming since they first open and I know and read it’s hit or miss on service depends on the day and person working but for my years of experience I’ve always enjoyed it. As long they get the usual food I order right and on time, on top of that food and dessert is good than this place is a four star for me. They don’t need to check on us or serve us like kings or queens because it’s a Hong Kong dessert house people. It’s not Gary danko with a $$$$ sign. The price is good. I usually get the egg puff which is better than all egg puff location even eggette. The HK milk tea is good but not as good as honk kong, fried garlic chicken wings, soy sauce wings,ham egg sandwich and mix fruits. Oh their green tea ice cream is a no no but vanilla is fine. They use the same batter for the waffle as the egg puff which is so yummy! Moving on that’s my usual order which has kept me going here for years. Wish they open earlier but I know they cater to the late people.“

“We’ve always been thin crust pizza fans, have never tasted authentic NY style pizza, though we have had Napoli-style pizza several times in Rome, and we gotta say, the crust here is AMAZING!! The only slight change that I think would make it taste even better is if there was a bit more salt in the dough. Other than that, the bottom of the pizza was crisp, and the crust was airy and crisp with a slight chew. The crust was so delicious that we saved all our uneaten crusts to bring home for later, could not bear to throw them away (unlike other, more bready crusts). 😆 The pepperoni pizza was our favorite (so flavorful), with the sausage being a close second. The margherita was nice with the fresh basil, but could have used a sprinkling of salt. Our younger son really wanted to try the corn pizza, but we could only manage to finish 3 pizzas with our family of 7, so he has already declared that this will be his pick for his birthday meal, and that he will be getting the corn pizza. 😆 Wish it were closer to us (we live around 30 mins away), but it is not too far for special occasions! From where we live, comparatively, Mountain Mike’s and Porky’s Pizza Palace would be rated 2 or 3 out of 10 and Spinning Dough would be 9/10! Would totally buy it frozen if they offered that, it is that good! Was also a treat for the kids to watch the owner (who is super, super nice!) toss the dough and assemble the pizzas. Thank you for the delicious meal!“

“My go-to place for cheap eating in the City!“

“They tried to overcharge me for chicken wings and I had to tell them their menu price says something different. Other than that the wings were ok, prepared fairly quickly and taste pretty good. The quality is not the best but they were crispy and well sauced.“

“The food was delicious 😋 my first time eating there. I always pass it up but this time. I had to have it....“

“Great food and service. I highly recommend this place for date night, family and friends. The only downside is parking is hard to come by in this neighborhood.“

“Fantastic late-night find! I was starving, and the staff went above and beyond—they started making my pizza before I even got there, so it was ready right when I arrived.

I asked for less cheese, and they nailed it. The pesto base was super flavorful, and the pizza was piled high with fresh veggie toppings. Absolutely hit the spot.

If you’re searching for a reliable late-night pizza spot, this is the one. I might have to come back during the day too!

“Pizza with a little salty dough but it's not a problem because the rest is very tasty, neither high nor low, good mozzarella for the price, oregano not of high quality, the locals like it a lot, while an Italian might vaguely remember the frozen one but a little ' Better. I have to say that it remains good considering the place where it is located.
Ps
Coke on tap tastes like chlorine, I think it's better to use barrel water and not tap water.“

“Quality Pizza with an excellent menu that serves a variety of great eats and a wonderful family owned business❤️“

“Great friendly service and great food !“

“Little Joey Skidmark lives just a half block away from Big Baba in that little funky yellow house, so when he asked me for a ride home from pier 3 I said as long as you sit on your jacket and keep the window down, because I don't want a stained seat in my truck. So he got a ride home, and I got to enjoy the world famous grilled chicken sandwich from Big Baba Eats! I got it without the grilling, and it was Amazing! 5 stars ☆☆☆☆☆“

“I love their braised pork belly with mustard greens. Its just like how my momma makes it. Every time I order here I always get their salted egg yolk fish with pumpkin slices. The egg yolk fish isn't on the menu but if you ask the boss lady she'll make it. If you're a fan of salted egg yolk flavor then it's a must here.“
