Goodbye, Buffalo Wild Wings. I’ve moved onto bigger and better things. This place is great! Amazing, homemade sauces and dressings, decent prices AND they deliver. I’d say the only thing they need to work on is the atmosphere and getting some more customers in the door… which is why I’m posting this review. I usually get pickup or delivery, so I can’t say much about the service. But they’re always friendly when I come in the door. Now they just need to get some skeeball and I’ll be coming here all the time.

Ok… I can’t stay away… when they get it right… it’s too good to stay away forever… I’ll take my chances I guess. As for tonight, it was perfect. Lots of sauce. not too much oil… extra crispy as I asked(a little too crispy but it’s certainly not a complaint from me, I did ask for extra crispy) all drums and full of flavor. I dined in… wait time was reasonable and it was overall what I’ve come to LOVE about them since high school. I have only added 1 more star to my review as it’s only my first time back since I was so upset last time. As I continue to return and the experiences get better then I will continue to add stars. I hope Shauna made the changes that needed to happen. It seems as if she has. I hope so anyway :)

2 years ago this would have been 5 stars but lately they have not been that good. The wings have gotten smaller and over cooked. The wings are cold when delivered. The fries have always been the worst I have ever had. I keep trying every few months but with no luck. I hope they turn it around,

Disappointed :(…me and the wifey been wanting to try this place. After arriving with practically no one there on a Monday night I was honored to wait over 30 mins for 20 wings. The flavor options are great but the lack of service and detail will keep me from going back. The waffle fries were great but would have complimented my meal had it come out

Amazing! Best Wings we ever had! I can not eat wings anywhere else now. I use to miss Mississippi Tunica because of some good wings, not anymore! I get simply garlic and fiancé gets hot rod ranch wings, extra crispy. Simply garlic wings have parm cheese and herb on top and it is so good dipped in blue cheese, the ranch is good too. The dry lemon herb chicken wings are great too, just tried them the other day. We love Kickin Wings, from their incredible quality to their excellent service! Warning, most wing are so hot a shower is needed afterwards. ;-)

I love their sauce. The actual wings are small and it takes them forever to prepare them. I stood there for 45min waiting and they didn’t offer me a beer. Call in and order at least 45min before you go there.

Had the Hod Rod Honey and Teriyaki Wings, both were delicious. Great food, great service! Don’t forget desert, Deep Fried Brownies… yummy.

The owner lady was clearly checking her Pinterest as I was trying to ask questions about her menu. There were a few people in front of me and we all waited for… ever. When I finally got my beer at one of the open yet least dirty tables available, I realized that the kitchen staff was dragging all of their garbage right through the dinning room. I also noticed that my feet were sticking to the floor that hadn’t looked or felt like it had been cleaned for days. Stay clear as their customer service and Heath code awareness are non existent. I gave two stars because they had Stella on tap! Pretty nice considering that the wings were sub par as well. And not at all what I had ordered from the supposed owner lady!

In my eyes, it deserves a four, but the overall rating of this place is too low. So there you go, Kickin. Ordered: wings, fries, drink. There should be ½ stars… I lived it, let’s just say. Great wings. Quality in the size. They were plump. Not jumbo, but well picked out. They let me try some of the XXX before anything. They have a crazy number of sauces for the wings. Their XXX Hot is not an exaggeration. I’m used to the heat. I live for the heat. After sampling the XXX I decided I’d enjoy the X better today. It was as hot as the hottest sauce most bars would have whom don’t specialize in wings. Their sauce has a fairly noticeable vinegar taste. I’m slightly against this. It took quite a while to get my fries and wings. Well worth the wait, ultimately. The ‘fresh cut’ fries were just that. So well-seasoned and delish. I must complain about drowning the wings in the sauce. They were. Too heavy. They should be tossed, and if the eater wants more sauce they should serve it on the side. Excellent customer service. Friendly and knowledgeable. Strip malls kind of suck, but that’s where they are. Their interior makes up for it. Very glad I visited.

Ordered dinner at 7:30 at night and even though my card was charged, they never showed up. Phone number goes to voicemail that sounds like any persons cell phone, not a business. Thanks for ripping me off.

I ordered a burger and fries on a Monday at 5pm. The good: 1) immaculatly clean dining room. 2) high quality ingredients like brioche buns and thick sliced bacon. 3). Staff is friendly with lots of smiles. 4). Best tasting waffle fries I have had in years; fresh, hot, and well seasoned. The bad: 1). Burger had a lukewarm pink center. I would have liked to see it cooked a minute or two longer. 2). Ticket time was 35 minutes with only 5 orders on the cook’s waiting list. 3). Only one cook in the kitchen receiving no help from the counter attendant. This locally owned restaurant has the potential to be a great neighborhood restaurant, except there was a failure to execute. I will probably give this place one more shot the next time I am in Wheat Ridge.

This place has pretty good wings… stumbled upon em on a Wed night so it was 55c boneless wing night. The place is pretty wide open and decorated for soccer… soccer? Soccer… futbol…lol Yeah. I dunno, the wings were tasty but like my friend mentioned they all tasted the same. I liked the bourbon wings for sure, but after tasting the other flavors we ordered they kinda all had the same taste and my friend said ketchup… lol if that’s true eesh… Everything here takes like forever… them cooking your wings, getting orders out, taking orders, getting you a glass of beer, ringing you up… which made me feel terrible for the people behind us… and made it really awkward. For some reason I feel like this place would be an excellent candidate for a remodeling from Kitchen Nightmares/Restaurant Impossible. Though they do have a shuffle board and Foosball table so that was cool.

We ordered the boneless wings and the $ 5 fries on a Sunday afternoon around 4pm. After seeing their delivery fees were a little pricey($ 5), we decided to pick up our order. Since this was our first time eating here, we asked for our sauces on the side in case they were too intense or we didn’t like them — we chose the spicy garlic and the honey. When we picked up our order they had tossed our wings in the sauce, which we shrugged off, not wanting to be picky. But when we got home our moods quickly turned sour — the wings were cold, soggy, and the two flavors tasted the EXACT same(like a mild hot sauce, but not even a good one –____-), and the fries were cold and cardboard-y like left out fries tend to taste. We were obviously disappointed and aren’t the type of people to call and complain, so we ordered from somewhere else. So I wanted to leave something here, hopefully people can see and maybe change their minds!

We placed a call-ahead order for pick up. They had the food ready in the half-hour estimate window, so that was nice to not have to wait around. We had the honey BBQ, medium and spicy garlic sauced bone-in wings. And an order of waffle fries. It was mostly the drumsticks which I think most people prefer, but I actually like the flats. Wish it was more mixed. Oh, well. The flavor themselves were tasty, so that wins out. I also would have preferred the wings to not be swimming in sauce but not a huge deal. Fries were crispy and well-seasoned…just don’t think about the grease-ridden bag they come in. All in all, solid place. I prefer Fire on the Mountain but this will satiate that wing-craving.

Yes, they take a LONGTIME. But yes they are absolutely worth it! I love the garlic sauces… The BBQ sauces… The sweet chili lime sauce. Yum! I also really REALLY appreciate that they deliver almost 5 miles away. It saves us the the drive there. I will say that they give a tiny amount of celery and I love celery! I always ask for extra celery but that still doesn’t seem to be enough :( And I also found it very odd how sticky their floors are when we went… Their tables felt sticky too. So I rather order delivery and expect to wait an hour or just a bit more, but it’s ok because they are so good! But I’ll definitely keep coming back because these are some of the best wings I’ve tried!

The best wings we have ever had!!! That is saying a lot because we eat a lot of wings. Sorry Buffalo Wild Wings and wing stop but you’ve been out done. Plus it’s a family owned business, being a small business owner myself, I love supporting other small businesses! Thanks guys! We will be back!

They get two stars because their wings arent the worst I’ve ever had, it takes a long time to get them but today was the last straw. They screwed up a take-out order. I ordered 10 bone-in and a dozen naked and the naked came with sauce on them. The problem isn’t even that, it’s how incredibly rude they were about fixing the order. After the delivery guy told me to «go ahead and Unilocal» I tried calling back twice to reach Shawna and both times she was amazingly not there. DONOTGETFOODFROMHERE! If you have to have wings, I will admit they’re not that bad but for my order which came to $ 26 I would have been as well off as if I had gone to McDonald’s and gotten buffalo sauce with mcnuggets.

This place has been a staple in my family since they opened. We usually order our wings to go, but we decided to stop in last night and eat in the restaurant. It’s nice enough inside, but nothing really fancy. I definitely would rather get my wings to go and watch the game on my couch, but there are TVs and a nice sporty feel to this place. I love the hot rod bleu cheese wings. They are my absolute favorite, followed by the garlic wings. Hot rod ranch is also delicious! All of the flavors I’ve had are really great, and the wings are ALWAYS crispy, which I love. This place is great family-owned and family-friendly place, and I’m happy to give them my business.

I’ve come in here twice for lunch as I work just down the street. I love wings and was glad to find somewhere closer than my normal haunts. I’ve tried the X-hot, the cajun, and the Caribbean jerk. I found the X-hot to be lacking in heat, so if you’re a lava-lover like me I’d recommend aiming hirer.(They go up to 3x.) The Cajun had a pleasant surprise of heat, but again not too much. The jerk didn’t impress me at all. The downside for me is the wings are drowned in just far too much sauce, and they take forever to cook them. Both times I’ve been here I was one of two tables and I waited for over 30 minutes for my lunch. One of the guys who works here is a little too uninterested in service, bordering on rude. I would also like to see them take a cue from a couple of my favorite wing joints and have some samples of the sauce out to let the customers try before ordering. Overall it’s not terrible, but I did notice that if I were to drive to another spot it would take the same amount of time.
