31 Best Chicken Wings in New Orleans

“Don’t miss this local gem! If you’re staying in this area, this is a must have. We stayed in the Gentilly area on the last leg of our spring break road trip, and Google and ChatGPT got us to Gentilly Wings & Seafood. Do not be deterred by the location or the fact that it’s next to a gas station. Food is outstanding, and service is friendly and fast!! 10/10“

“I am so happy I found this place! I moved recently from Colorado and was nervous about finding a place to order wings. I am thankful the "Google God's" suggested Who Dat Wings because they have best bone in for my husband and bonless for me! I also can't rave enough about the staff. They are professional, prompt and clean!!!! I have only been a handful of times, each time with menu questions and each time I was treated with respect and knowledge. I will always come back!“

“We came cause they said it was the best wings in the city and yall they wasn’t lying. The food was fantastic. I will now stop by here every time I come to the city.“

“Found this spot in TikTok. It was well worth it. We enjoyed it and will be back the next time we are in town.“

“I've eaten here before and the food is to be as expected. It's chicken, fish and fried rice. Simple food, so you know what you're getting. I have no problem coming back again and again. What I do have a problem with is that you can't make a phone order. So, if I wanted 1000 pieces, I'd have to wait for them to fry 1k wings? That would dang near take over an hour of wait time to fry that instead of letting me pay for it over the phone and just picking it up at a stated time.“

“My family's new favorite pizza spot! Food and customer service was 10/10!“

“I purchased a hot lunch plate. White beans, rice, Salisbury steak. Delicious food. I ate it and fell asleep immediately. I haven't felt that good since Thanksgiving Dinner. Thank you Hot Stuff!“

“Absolute MUST stop when we are traveling through NOLA! Melba's never disappoints, always fresh and always delicious!“

“Stopped in Louisiana today to go on an airboat tour. Went to le roux and ordered 10 wings and the fish and shrimp dinner. It was phenomenal!! 5/5 rating Would recommend trying out!“

“Best chicken ive had in years.“

“Wings are great..wonderful service“

“Many a time I have wandered into the Lavin-Bernick Center in search of a tasty treat that will satisfy my craving for excellence, but only today did I find what I have yearned so eagerly for. When a mysterious man in a trench coat whispered to me the secrets of the hidden menu, I rushed to Wow and asked for one simple item: the Jackson Cushing special. Although the workers were resistant to serve me, they finally caved when I leapt over the counter and begged on my knees. As soon as I was done with this meticulously and gracefully cooked fish dish, I wept, for I know that nothing in life will ever come close to the absolute pleasure this cuisine brought me. I strongly recommend every reader to pursue this euphoria that has changed me forever.“

“7/10 recommend. Fast service Friendly employees“

“My first time visiting this place was with my mom in the spring of 2024. And we both loved it! The food is fresh and very reasonably priced! The outside dining area is cool as well.“

“They got some good azz wings. I tried the whole dat spicy and they hit the spot. They wasn’t spicy to me. But i needed another 10 piece. They prices higher than me when i buy an ounce tho. But they worth every cent. Only one person working.“

“Food was fresh and absolutely delicious!!“

“This place has a great chill vibe! Kizzy is the best bartender ever! Food was good and very relaxing.“

“Today is my son's 13th birthday and he's been a hothead/heat seeker for as long as I can remember. For perspective, he finally convinced Santa after 2 years to gift him the One Chip Challenge when he was 7. Today, his special request was to eat the hottest wings we could find, so my hubby found this place online last night. It's a short drive from Metairie, so although he wanted to do the Bayou Beast Challenge, we only had time to get a to-go order with all the other birthday errands we were running. We got a 6 piece of the Bayou Beast flavored wings. The gentleman checking us out was an absolute stand up guy who was equal parts concerned and impressed when he realized the order wasn't for me, but for the short kid standing next to me who told him he didn't want or need a dipping sauce. He even offered him a birthday coke (probably as a piece offering to the gods as an apology for what was going to transpire in my bathroom later🤣). Now to the fun part. I normally do these challenges with him, but today he wanted to fly solo. So I prepped the counter for him as usual with milk, yogurt, wipes etc. When I opened the box? YALL! The smell burned my eyes and instantly gave me PTSD from when I ate Da Bomb wing in the Hot Wings Challenge last year. My newly minted teenager the proceeded to smash all 6 in 5 minutes and did it like a pro without even a sip of water. I managed to get a single bite before they disappeared and I can guarantee you, the bathroom will be your sanctuary. I would not survive more than 2 as a grown adult. Maybe he's a glutton for punishment. Maybe he's a mutant. But what I do know is my dude is determined to beat that challenge and get that shirt and picture on the wall, so we'll be back very soon!“

“Oh my goodness everything was amazing loaded with seafood in every bite I was in restaurant depo and started a conversation with a sweet lady asking her was the brand of shrimp she had in her basket a really good brand and she was kid enough to saying yes and she was telling me about their stuffed shrimp from there we headed to the location and it’s top tier fa me will stop by again!!!“

“I don’t understand anyone saying this is the best chicken in New Orleans. It was mid at best. Very little flavor in the flimsy breading. Puny wings. Prices were fine & they obviously have a vibe with lots of character. Staff were friendly.“

“Amazing food and service. Highly recommend! Jenea was excellent!“

“Absolute MUST stop when we are traveling through NOLA! Melba's never disappoints, always fresh and always delicious!“

“Great food! Roast beef is very good! Had the Friday special with stuffed shrimp! Excellent!“

“My wife and I stopped by while walking around Frenchmen Street and really enjoyed it. The band was great and drinks were good. Really cool atmosphere and definitely more laid back than the Bourbon Street area. Glad we checked it out and would come back next time we’re in New Orleans.“

“5-piece wing is reasonably priced. Fries are seasoned just right, and there was an electrical outlet available in the clutch for my phone.

This place has an unassuming, but cozy sit-down bar with cushioned seats. These small accoutrements are just what a Canal and Bourbon Street wanderer needs for Super Bowl weekend.“

“Great selection of some of the finest bourbons made! The staff were great the food was excellent. We had the smoked tuna dip and we split a brisket sandwich! Highly recommend both!“

“i like service ....it was very quickly“

“This Wingstop was BUSY for a Tuesday night! I ordered on the app and arrived right as the app said it would be ready. There were probably 20 people in the small lobby, but we were all happy, so it didn’t matter. The Manager and employees were very productive and apologetic to those who were waiting. When I gave my name, he remembered it and gave me an update every few minutes.

The manager threw in some extra ranch and gave me a fountain drink for free. It was already a good experience (even with the wait), but he made it better.“

“Nice 🔥 I recommend pl to try it“
