43 Best Chicken Wings in New Orleans

“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!“

“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“

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

“The food was delicious. I had the salmon pasta. It was perfect creamy, savory and cheesey. The salmon was seasoned to perfection and grilled just right. The atmosphere is a vibe with the bar and music made every just right. I went during happy hour so the drinks were buy one get one before 8. I had the frozen margaritas it was perfection.

I have eaten at hut 35 before and I had the lemon pepper chicken with fries and the boudin balls. Each time the food was hot and fresh. I can't wait to go back for more.

Best time to go
The weekends are a vibe
But Thursdays before 8 is a chill zone“

“Best chicken ive had in years.“

“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!“

“Food was fresh and absolutely delicious!!“

“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.“

“7/10 recommend. Fast service Friendly employees“

“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.“

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

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

“Wings are great..wonderful service“

“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!“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Favela Chic has a wonderfully funky vibe and the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to stay longer than planned. The music was fantastic, adding energy and character without overwhelming the space. It feels lively, creative, and distinctly New Orleans, with plenty of personality in every corner. Whether you're stopping by for drinks, live music, or just to soak in the ambiance, it's a memorable spot that captures the city's unique spirit. A great find and somewhere I'd happily return to.“

“Nice 🔥 I recommend pl to try it“

“Another night in NOLA which means it’s time to try a new food spot. Earlier today I was over on Canal and passed by Willie’s. The smell itself drew me in and I decided at that moment that I was coming back. LoL!!!! Willie’s sits right on the strip so it’s super easy to find. The front was totally open and there were a few tables outside on the sidewalk. As the strip is super active, sitting outside would be dope if you wanted to people watch. LoL. Walking up to the counter, each register had a cashier so the line was running smoothly. Taking a moment to review the menu, it was as one would anticipate; simple, straightforward, and one dimensional. The highlight of Willie’s definitely appears to be the Daiquiri’ as there are many options. I decided on the 3pc Cajun Tender Combo which comes with Fries and a Honey Biscuit. I also added a side of Red Beans and Rice. I mean, it is NOLA so I had to do it. I placed my order. Received my number. And took a seat to await my order. The restaurant was clean and vibrant. The yellow and red throughout the restaurant really set an upbeat tone that pairs well with the neon lights and vibrant colors of the Daiquiris. Once my order was ready, it was delivered to the table and I was good to go. Let’s talk the Food: Biscuit - Simple. Buttery. Crunchy around the bottom edges. Soft in the middle. Nothing special to note. Reminds me of a biscuit from Church’s. I’ll say 7/10. Tenders - Big. Juicy. Crunchy on the outside. Well seasoned. That’s it. That’s all I got. 😂😂😂😂😂😂. I’ll say 5/10. Fries - Well Seasoned. Crunchy. I’ll say 7/10. Red Beans and Rice - Now hear me out. I love a good RB&R and these were good. There were way more beans than there was rice, which is ideal for this kind of dish. They weren’t too spicy. They were flavored well and the beans were tender. You can definitely tell they were slow simmered. I’ll say 8/10. Now… hear me out! The food wasn’t bad but for $25.00, chileeeeeeeeeeee. No ma’am, No sir. Lemme go to the chicken spot for half the price. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying I won’t maybe go again if I want a lil piece of a tender. But at $13 for the Combo and $8 for the RB&R… imma need a coupon or something. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Ok, Ok. In all seriousness, if you’re in the area, go for the experience. *P. S. For my Up North people, Willie’s puts me in the mindset of our “New York Fried Chicken” spots that be on the strip in the hood.“

“The best fried chicken in New Orleans !!!“

“I highly recommend you Check out ✅QUALITY LUMBER FOR SALE✅ visit their page and get all sawmill parts and accessories“

“Hooks is tasty because it's always prepared fresh and the cook is never afraid to season the food. The gentleman in front at the register is very accommodating and he understands the menu well. Ive had the philly, catfish, shrimp, and fried chicken wings and I can't stop ordering those to try other things. I'll tell anybody that hasn't been here to eat their food! Best Philly on this side hands down.“

“Very good food and very good customer service, The food is always hot and ready. There’s a small buffet with seafood potatoes, corn, smoked sausage, and other foods , a Kitchen that makes hot orders to go. The restaurant is itself can use a bit of an updated, video poker area does not seem very family friendly , But it was hidden ,I love their chicken plate, egg rolls, and they also have a variety of drinks, If you're in New Orleans east, please try them. You won’t be disappointed.,“

“This place is PHENOMENAL!!! Oh my god, I usually stick to the same snowball stand that I have been going to for the last 20 years but when I tell you KREOLE KINGS SNOWBALLS AND THINGS has truly changed the game ….I am not lying. The snowballs are literally perfect for the weather these days. The ice is so soft it just melts in your mouth, the juice amount is perfect (they are never stingy), and the additional condiments like stuffed ice cream, candy, or condensed milk come in an abundance. However, that is not all! The food is just as good ! I couldn’t believe the wing plate …just scrumptious . I have tried the lemon pepper and the bourbon wings with the Kreole king fries and I must say they are truly delicious! Since they’ve opened, I have been back about 6 times and I always leave with 2 plates minimum because they are so good, I need a plate for later.

Kid-friendliness: In my case, my kid is a dog and I must say he loves it there. I always get him a water and ice cream and he appreciates it . When we pull up he immediately realizes where he is and starts to lick his lips lol. This place is super pet friendly and there is a park adjacent to the snowball stand if your dog needed a tinkle break.“

“me and my crew came for Mardi gras and we stopped here to eat and when I tell you we had a Time the dj was on point food was a1 the hype man had it going on 100000/10“

“I’d like to let everyone know that this store has made a dramatic improvement from the last few months. I grab Wingstop maybe 2/3 ish times a week , they know me by name now lol. Fast , friendly and punctual . It doesn’t take a million years to get your order now and everything is as is on the ticket. I have zero complaints and I will continue picking up my 3 piece xtra crispy boneless wings with that new chamoy sauce (never get rid of that damn sauce or ranch omg 10/10)😁😁😁 also the new Gm is a great guy, I came in one day and he was in a business meeting and paused it just to say hey to me..<3 a real one .“

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

“Best po-boys... We've been eating here for a number of years. Our go-to especially for breakfast po-boys. The best bread ever...made locally in NOLA. Not sure why they didn't have Bloody Mary's this time...they have had in the past....but sandwiches still worth the visit.“

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

“Go Get You Some 🤤“

“I had a great experience at this Popeyes. I ran into an issue with my Uber Eats order, but the managers were extremely helpful and went out of their way to resolve it. They even offered me a free meal for the inconvenience, which I really appreciated.

Every time I come in, the staff makes me feel welcome. The environment is nice, clean, and well-maintained, and everyone is friendly and professional. Definitely one of the better locations I’ve been to—highly recommend!“

“the wings and snowballs are rolling. And the people there are friendly love it 💞“
