Have been going for years, they have the best wings that I have found in the Merrimack Valley. My family loves the boneless wings from this place but we ordered this past week and all 4 of us got sick from the boneless wings. We had stomach issues for days and my son was throwing up at night. The chicken actually tasted fine but I’m not sure what is going on maybe they are using old oil to fry or something, I don’t know but I probably will not go back after this.

I think they should really consider reducing the menu and maybe focus on making like 10 or 15 core flavors. So far I've tried maybe 7 or 8 of the different flavors (and admittedly most of the ones I have tried have fallen into the Buffalo wings category) but most of them have a very light flavor and a certain same-ness to them.
I have tried the regular buffalo all the way up to the double trouble wings and honestly could not detect any difference in heat. I finally opted to get the ghostrkder wings, and while spicy were nothing more than a mild kick with a bit of a slow burn after.
Maybe it has been mentioned in a previous review, but many of their wings sauces have this strange glistening oily rubbery feel to them, like they put too much oil and not enough of everything else.
Other than the wings I have also tried their fries which are very bland and a burger which was also just average.
TLDR: Average wings. Should probably cut down the menu and focus on making each of the flavors unique and memorable.

Very disappointed in recent delivery. Wings were cold, fries were cold, asked for extra ranch and didn’t get it. Very expensive for a meal that was disappointing. I would avoid sparkys and make my way to Wendy’s for a meal of that same experience. Place has gone down hill

First time eating here, the flavor was great but I got really sick and went to the doctors they said I have salmonella. So plz be very careful on what you get.

Went here because of all the great reviews. I got a teriyaki chicken wing dinner. The only thing good was the sauce. The chicken had absolutely no flavor and was rubbery. The Mac salad was literally just boiled elbow pasta. And the side salad looked like it was starting to go bad.

I ordered a boneless dinner. When I called, they told me it would be ready in 5 minutes. That concerned me because I thought they wouldn't be fresh. Wish I was wrong, but I wasn't. Half the tenders ended up getting wasted because I either couldn't chew through the coating because it seemed stale? Or the chicken seemed kind of old when biting into it. I was a bit disappointed because so many people have told me they had AMAZING chicken.
The fried were also 99% Cajun to the point I almost choked on the seasoning.

Classic spot, been coming here for almost 10 years now and still haven't tried every flavor of the wings. Always large portions with enough sauce and flavor from the first bite to the last. Great local eats.

Decided to pick up wings for a late dinner. Got buffalo (traditional, I know) and Dragons Breath. Clean lean chicken. Not fatty! Big pieces of meat!
Bonus: tried a new menu item of spring rolls with jalapenos and a sweet pepper sauce. Excellent!
Truly a grab and go shop but you can sit and eat if you are not going home. Clean and comfortable.
This would be considered worth the drive!!!

I’ve always loved it here! They have a ton of flavors and give you a lot of food no matter the order. Flavors are great, service is quick, and the food is awesome. What more could you ask for?? Cool logos and shirts as well, and great leftovers. Will always come back!

Amazing hot wings. If you like wings they have plenty of flavors to choose from. The wings are a good size for the price. I look forward to stopping here again specifically doing a take out order. If you are planning to dine in just know there's no bathroom and no wet naps available. Also it was a cold rainy day and roughly 50° in the seating area. Take out or a warm day with wet naps on hand would be your best bet.
