The Wing Company

We like this place, it’s our go-​to wing takeout joint. It’s not very fancy looking, definitely more of a takeout or delivery place, but the wings are good. The spice levels are right, the flavour is good, they’re saucy (if you’re into that) and the wings are big and fat.
To give you some context, we’ve tried wings from Hurricane’s (too small), Duff’s (too bland), The Puck (too small, frozen?), Wing Machine (meh), Hooter’s (not bad) and so on into wing infinity.
Don’t bother with the free sides or anything else, this place is about the wings.

When I’ve ordered from this place, they were late, and the orders were wrong. Had to jump through rings of fire to get them to fix it. Great wings, horrible service. I want this place to be better so very badly.

Well, I walked in here last night for a treat and didn’t realize it was the same place I hadn’t liked previously because I was a bit tipsy. I was pleasantly surprised. I’m glad I gave them another shot.
Great poutine! My beer-​drinking buddy and I ordered a large poutine to go to eat on our glorious couch of shame. The woman asked if we wanted extra cheese, easiest up-​sell ever. Real curds, dark and rich gravy, crispy fries. Dee-​lish.
It’s a bit of a dingy old-​school take out counter, but it’s clean and does everything it should do. They have a large delivery zone, so if you’re in the mood for simple poutine done right you should holla at them through
.

Ordered delivery for hot and suicide wings, side fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings and the vegetarian burger. My daughter lived the burger and raved about the peppers on it. The side were all crispy and the grease was minimal (I hate when fries are soggy). They arrived in paper bags and none of them bags had grease marks. The wings were great. Super saucy and flavourful. They were just as good the next day too.

Warning!!! Do not order the chicken burger from here! We have received an unacceptable «Buffalo chicken crunch» burger. Picture above. It was two small, dry and flattened pieces of chicken that were separate on the bun which left a big gap in between. Our wings were bigger then these pieces of chicken. Called to complain to see if maybe staff messed up on the burger. The employee over the phone said this IS the standard burger. She then went to speak to the owner, who chose NOT to speak to us over the phone. Girl on the phone should not have been the one to deal with our situation. Nevertheless, we will never order from here again. Try somewhere else.

I just wanted to give an update to say that I still think this restaurant has the best wings in my neighbourhood. I’ve tried I Wings, and Just Get Wings, and a couple of other places and they aren’t as good. The delivery is usually on time, and the driver (it’s always the same person) is very friendly.

Delivery order took 90 mins.
Fries and onion rings were your basic frozen variety.
The burger also didn’t seem to be «homemade» but was still tasty.
We ordered chicken wings (medium and bbq blue flavour) and they had good flavour. They were a bit dry but that could have been from the delivery delay.

Deserves less than 1 star. Customer service is awful!
We ordered 20 wings and two sides to accompany an event we were watching, we were told delivery would be an hour or less… longer than you’d expect but I was willing to wait an hour. 1.5hr later still no delivery person showed up so we called in and were told «it’s a busy night it will take 1 – 1.5hr», its already been over their maximum estimated time!
We ended up cancelling the order while receiving less than poor customer service on the phone.
With so many wing places in Toronto there is no excuse for such poor service.
P. S. Never asked not to pay for my order, but surely asked for a discount when forced to call back and inquire about my order.

rdered from here on the weekend. I had been wanting to try this place out for awhile, so my girlfriend and I decided to place an order to try out what they had. The order was:
–10 wings with fries, with medium sauce.
–10 boneless wings with onion rings (they didn’t have wedges). We found out there was an up-​charge for onion rings.
–1 regular poutine.
I was confused by the total, which was around $ 39. Seemed like a lot more than the prices advertized on their website, they stood firm that it was correct, we didn’t argue and ordered. Delivery time quoted was an hour.
The food arrived about 45 minutes after the order was placed, so I was happy with the delivery. Driver was polite and tipped. We got ourselves settled with our own drinks, turned on a movie and dug in.
The bone-​in wings were flavourful, but a little on the soggy side for my liking. Sauce was good, a great medium sauce to gauge where to go next time. I think I might go for hot next time. Great flavour to the sauce, but the wings were not my favorites.
The boneless wings were unfortunately small, but damn were they tasty! I They didn’t have much sauce on then, luckily with the bone-​in wings having so much, I was able to dip and enjoy.
As for the sides, the fries were delicious, and according to my girlfriend, so was the poutine. The onion rings left me sad, unfortunately. I understand having an upcharge for sides different from simple fries, but if I’m paying an extra couple of dollars, I expect more than seven onion rings. The portion of fries were generous enough for the price, but with a $ 2 upcharge, I’d expect more than 7 rings.
Overall, I was satisfied enough with the meal, the place is also close enough from home to be able to walk and pick up food. I looked at their menu again and tried to calculate the price to be around $ 39, and couldn’t get it to that price. I then remembered they were also on
. I used their system to calculate the delivery price, so I could see the charge for delivery and for the onion ring upcharge. The amount came up to $ 39.36, HOWEVER the price per combo is $ 12.95 each, not $ 10.98 as listed on their website. I had them at ***, but the pricing felt like a bait-​and-​switch, which made me sour on the whole experience. Due to this, I took an extra point, and I’m not sure if I’ll order or pick up from them in the future. Shame…

I placed a delivery order and was told it was going to take 45 minutes to an hour. The order taker was supposedly experiencing problems processing not one but two credit cards of mine which were completely fine and mentions that my payment will be processed at the door via debit. An hour goes by with no sign so I give them a call. I was told that the order left 20 minutes ago, and we are within a 10 minute walk. When I registered my concern for the lateness, I was told to «relax». Unbelievable. The driver finally showed up close to an hour and a half after I had placed the order. By this time we were getting ready to sit down to tuna sandwiches we were forced to make out of sheer hunger, so I turned him away. Completely unacceptable service. If I find unexplained charges on my credit card bills I will be updating this review. Avoid at all costs!!!

wings were pretty meaty, breaded, and saucy.
tequila lime was good, but curious to try some of the hotter ones.
can’t say i was mesmerized by the flavor but i think it was above average
,

OK, this is the hardest place to review for me because depending on the day, this place can get a 5 star review or a 1 star review.
I’m going to give this place a 4star because at it’s best, this place IS the best wing place in the city. These wings are so unbelievable tasty. Crispy on the outside, moist and meaty on the inside. This is TWC at it’s best.
Unfortunately you NEVER know what you are going to get at this place. Small wings or big wings? A mix of some gigantic wings and some tiny wings? Do they have fryers and roasters or just fryers or just roasters? Is it 50% more wings everyday or just on Monday/​Tuesday? Do they even do 50% more wings anymore?
NO CONSISTENCY!
The wings here are always tasty, even when they are tiny, but it is very disappointing when you open the box to find tiny wings when a week ago, the wings you got where the size of a small child.

Maybe it’s just me but the wings here don’t seem that big. They are, however, pretty tasty, though none of the sauces are hot enough for me (nothing approaching Death or Armageddon at Duff’s)…seriously, they offer all these sauces and can’t just create one that is actually really, really hot? Also, the wings come with far too little sauce on them.
These are both correctable (I did ask for more sauce once and there was a *little* more sauce on them), but as it stands I prefer Duff’s or even Puck N Wings (which are overly fried, but much bigger and saucier).

After the last review, circumstances changed. There was correspondence, and we decided to try again.
Full Order:
# The Wing Man

# 12 Buffalo Mild
# Fries
# Veggies & Dip
# 2 Brownies
# 2 pops — upgraded to Boylan’s soda (Black Cherry and Orange — POINTS HERE!!)
The husfriend found the wings to be more enjoyable, flavour was evenly coated. Very nice. Meat was tender and definitely ‘meaty’. :D — His words. :) Thumbs up!
I found the Salt and Vinegar with a good flavour this time. They were not just ‘plain’ wings as of last time. Even my roommate, A, said, «Why does it smell like Salt and Vinegar in here o.0?» This is a good sign. :) You got the beautiful salt and sharp vinegar with every bite. Yum.
Our order came with the regular sized fries, which were really enjoyable. It’s a shame that they come in such a small quantity. The roommate, G, really enjoyed them and did so by sneaking along and grabbing a few!
The amazing thing was that Rob (the founder) had also included some sauces for us to try (garlic and onion free, for the husfriend). We got BBQ Honey, BBQ Peppercorn, and their Tequilla Lime sauce. We have instantly fallen in love with the peppercorn sauce and highly recommend it. Next rated would be the Tequilla Line. Honey wasn’t too intense. I like my flavour sharp. It’s just me, but the honey could be really nice.
VERDICT:
The husfriend says that he would love to order from here again, as long as the quality remains the same. Wings, Burgers, Meaty meat, and Fries are the husfriend’s main food groups (and he still only weighs about 140lbs — he has severe allergies). The only thing that he would change would be the amount of fries. The portion of fries that is given is 5oz. The average single potato weight (before frying) is approx. 8 oz. Essentially, we’re each given our own single potato. I respect the portioning in a world of fast food where we don’t know how to stop, but for a man who loves his french fries, they weren’t enough. :(
I would order from here again. The customer care was amazing this time around and I give kudos to those that deserve it. ROB, KUDOS! :D I will remember you guys when I have a large party next time, especially for pizza and wing night!
4.5÷5
0.5 taken for the size o’ the fries. :(
Great job guys!

I have returned to The Wing Company and I have to say the big roasters are back, the sauce is right well the ones I picked. lol and the portion of fries were up to snuff… this place is now on my list of wings to get especially since they deliver… Good Job Wing Company. I recommend Hot and Spicy BBQ some real kick to it

If you want a good sized wing at a reasonable price and a choice of 40 sauces, then this is the de facto place to go for wings. The delivery, do take out or you can choose to stay and watch the game on their big screen tv. The staff are all nice and helpful and make you feel like a long time customer.
Simply the beset wings in town. Their fries and onion rings aren’t bad either.
Noteable sauces include: frank’s re hot bbq, Lemon Tequilla Chipotle, and Hot mustard.

The wings are good, really good. Check them out. Ideally get a few wing lovers together and get a few different of 40+ flavours. You need to take-​out or get delivery if you want beer with your wings. Monday or Tuesday get 50% more wings for same price. I’d definitely return. That’s the bottom line.
I decided to check out this place, eating in, after a verbal, effusive recommendation at the last Elite event from Kelly O. as well as the further very positive Unilocal reviews. On to the bullet point list!
Pros:
+ Clearly the wings (meaty and crispy). I decided to get the Smoked Lime & Tequila flavour (delicious) after 5 minutes inspecting the menu.
+ Wings were pretty saucy which I don’t normally like but in this case was great because the sauce was really good.
+ Lots (well, at least 39) of other interesting sauce choices.
+ Pleasant, cheerful service… finally offered me a sample of one of the wing flavours after much hemming and hawing about what to get (designed to generate aforementioned sample… probably could have just asked for one).
+ Clean and well organized layout with plenty of condiments available.
+ They have the big wet-​naps (like a towel).
Cons
— Unlicensed. Has to be mentioned if you want to compare to Duffs/​St. Louis/​etc. I really wanted a beer. Or put another way you really only want to take-​out or get delivery.
— Small location — 10 seats. Back to the take-​out or delivery.
— Tried to upsell me to Boylan’s soft drink instead of diet pepsi… bush league.
— Fries were a little underdone, but edible.
— Celery was a little on the white-​ish side.

Very rarely am I surprised, and even MORE rarely am I pleasantly surprised. The Wing Company, with its welcoming hole in the wall atmosphere it has done just that. Blink and you’ll miss it, or possibly thinks its a dry cleaner (it’s just that small).
Inside the layout is simple and effective. 1 counter, 1 open to view kitchen, stools, raised tables and most importantly the menu. Lots of flavours, and the two I had on my first ever visit make me want to try the entire line up.
It is important to note, I’m a fan of Duffs wings. However I find them pretty greasy. The Wing Company’s product didn’t feel anywhere near as bad, and the real winner here is flavour. Duff’s flavours are pretty basic but very good. The Wing Company’s flavours are unique and excellent (based on my sampling). Actually, I don’t know if I have a reason to go back to Duff’s now.
Now for the best part. I ordered 20 wings on a Tuesday and they give me a bag that must have had 30 – 35! That my friends is a flirtatious promotion. I’m going to go there every week until I’m too fat to squeeze into my elevator. It’ll be pimpin’.

I never liked wings until I had Duff’s. Duffs was #1 in my heart. I have to say that The Wing Company is pretty good competition. It’s been mere hours since I’ve had their wings and I can’t get them off of my mind.
The flavours here are amazing! I expanded my horizon by not going for the honey garlic and ordered the BBQ mesquite and hubby got the signature hot mustard wings. Both flavours were delicious. I also like the option that you have a choice of spicy chipotle on top of dill or blue cheese sauce. Go for the chipotle.
AND the wings come with fries and Monday and Tuesday are specials so we got extra wings too.
I’ll be coming back here again for sure. Save yourself the wait in line at Duff’s and check this place out.

It was a happy day for my family when a new wing joint opened up in our hood this month. We popped in there for some takeout Sunday night and were more than delighted. I couldn’t go in because we had the dog, so the 3 of us peered in at the menu from outside. Surprisingly, the woman working there came outside and handed us a pamphlet so we could more easily decide on our order. Nice service!
The real challenge here is actually choosing what type of sauce to get. There are over 40 choices, from traditional (BBQ, Buffalo, and Thai Chili) to the more interesting (Guinness, sea salt and malt, and lime).
Finally, we went with 10 Orange Ginger Zinger wings, and 10 hot wings. We also got fries with our orders, and upgraded one of them to a poutine (which was only 2.50).
The wings: Crispy, generously saucy, and tangy. The hot was hot. The owner told us that the orange ginger flavour was a bit controversial, but we both loved it.
The poutine: Nice size, lots of gravy, thick cut fries. The curds were good, but I would have enjoyed a few more of them.
The service: Great! So friendly, and willing to offer advice on their many choices. The woman also brought our order outside to us in the freezing cold. The menu offered onion rings, cheese sticks, and other yummy looking stuff.
Bonus: Veggies and dipping sauce! Among the flavour choices: Chipotle and Dill… my fav!!!
Our order of 20 wings, poutine, fries, 2 veggies and 2 dipping sauces came to a ridiculous $ 24.27. I’ll definitely be back to sample some more flavours and sides!
