Phifer's Hot Wings & Bar-B-Q

The food and experience do not live up to their reputation. The chicken wings were nothing more than your average cheap deep fried wing, and sides are nothing notable. The interior of the restaurant was filthy and full of flies. When I walked in, I was told that they weren't open yet because they "weren't ready" even though the doors were unlocked and it was past their opening time.

Spicy, savory goodness all served up with friendly smiles & service. Chopped pork is awesome. Wings & Fried Chicken too. Choice of two sides with each dinner.Their homemade spicy sauce is just right on the heat.Chicken & BBQ Pork dinner is tops.

I keep going back for a half chicken spicy. Veggies are good also. My wife likes the southern fried chicken with fries

Took a call in the lot because it's safer that way, and since I'm here and they're here, let's see how this works out. Food to go ready in 15 minutes, enough time to sit down and reflect on if I should have got green beans with that...Got where I was going and was pleasantly surprised to see wings of substance! Five each drums and flats all buffaloed up plus blue, a pile of celeries, and a side of steamed cabbages.Managed to not make a huge mess of myself despite the sauciness and dressings, yea me!! Wings didn't have the twice baked or re-fried feel to them, rather they are moist and firm like when we used to cook 'em on the backyard grill except with more cabbages and a 95.5 rating.Thinking the 5-wing dinner next time, comes with two veggies

5 stars.try to eat there if i am in the area.chicken is off the charts good.Highly recommend

Sauce is what makes the wings. Will try the BBQ next time. Only complaint is lady in front literally got mad because we changed order from dine in to a to go order due to time. She didn't hide the fact either. Sorry she had to scratch out dine in....so, when we picked up order, she didnt give any forks, napkins, anything..

I'm completely biased, as I admire the owners of this restaurant, who have been supportive of every endeavor I've partaken in since I was a child. Girl Scout Cookies? SoldAd in the Yearbook? BoughtFundraising for cheerleaders? $$$So how could I not support a business that supports the community and has done so for decades. That being said, these are hands down the best wings that are in Statesville, NC. Customer service is always friendly. The food is served hot. In 20 years, the prices have remained affordable. If you're looking for chicken, this is your place.

I ordered the BBQ and Chicken and I made it the Spicy Chicken. It was not a crispy fried chicken but a soft moist skin. The spicy chicken was good, not the best I have ever had but a good competitor. The BBQ was spicy and well prepared, no other sauces were in the table either Franks or Tabasco, I really don't remember.The bake beans and cole slaw were bother special and may be either canned or store purchased.The counter service was very polite and helpful, no complaints there. The tables and floor were dirty. While we arrived in late afternoon after the lunch crowd, that may have part of the reason but as we ate there was nobody else sitting and eating. The bathrooms could have used a little cleaning love as well.The spicy chicken was good. The tables and

I love this place. Food always fresh. Good customer service. I love their chicken tenders dip in hot sauce

Best fried chicken and wings I've had in a long time. Just a laid back good food experience.
