Flava Wings

I was persuaded by my Twitter cousins to visit this place. So nice that it wasn't too far. I'm from Memphis and wings is what we do, so I was interested to see how what they had going on. It was definitely reminiscent of Memphis wing spot. The mural was cool and clearly there's ample seating. I called ahead because I didn't want to wait long. The wait wasn't bad and the staff was friendly and helpful. The wings were pretty good, next time I'll ask for fried hard, I like mine a bit crispier. But the sauce ratio was great and the wing sizes are above average. I am used to whole wings but these had me full and the bleu cheese was good consistency. The fries were crispy and a nice touch with the salt AND pepper. So I don't have to add my own pepper. However, I was surprised they didn't have carrots and celery...like really surprised. But overall the wings and fries were tasty and I'll be coming back.

I was in Alief and the marquee called out to me as I passed by. I knew Flava Wings had a new location but I didn't know the address so when I saw it at Eldridge and Bissonnet, I made a note to stop by before heading home. It's the same menu as the Mchard location which made me a very happy girl. It's spacious inside with clean bathrooms and a nice mural on one wall. It looks exactly like the original location, only a little bigger.What I got:1) Bone-in wings. Half Uncle Hickory's BBQ, half Zesty Lemon Pepper. The chicken was juicy and the skin was perfectly crispy. The zesty lemon pepper was probably my favorite. The bbq were tossed in the sauce and unfortunately not fully coated so there were pieces that tasted plain. Still good, but not what I expected nor wanted.2) Cajun fries. They were thick crinkle cut with a good amount of potato in every bite. 3) Cajun Corn. Not sure if I've ever described corn as finger licking good, but this one definitely earns that name. It's well seasoned and fried to perfection. Not over done but clearly not just boiled either.4) Koolaid. They only have red and I'm not mad at it. I don't know if it's tropical punch, strawberry, or cherry and I don't really care because that doesn't matter. All I know is it's good and cold right out the machine even without ice.

I went to the original Flavas a couple years ago and remember it being pretty good but I've been hearing the hype about it again from all over and I noticed they built a second location a little closer to me so I decided to try it out again. The restaurant is located in a gas station shopping strip so you can park easily in the front. They have tables inside if you choose to dine in but I saw a lot of propel ordering take out. I came with my cousin on a Saturday around 8PM and it wasn't too busy. We ordered a 10 piece combo with a side of Cajun fries and the drink was a red kool aid if I'm not mistaken. We had the sweet and sticky flavor along with the garlic Parmesan wet. I will say these wings are absolutely Devine! They are big, full of meat, well seasoned and fried to perfection! The fries were just okay, they were the crinkle cut style and that's not usually my favorite. The look aid was also very good as it was very sweet. I will say, the wait time is pretty extreme in my opinion. I remember we waited a while the last time I came but today it definitely took almost 40 minutes for our food to come out. I imagine it's because they are trying it fresh but that's a really long time to wait. I guess next time I'll consider calling it in but they might need a better system for that. Also I noticed that they someone came in around 9:40 to place an order and they turned him away although they don't close until 10PM. I thought that was a little OD. If that's the case, then the closing time needs to be 9:30. Overall the food itself was really good so I would highly recommend.

Even though I wasn't in Houston for long, these were the best wings I had in Houston. Nice size, good quality, good pricing and good service. The Bourbon Black Pepper were excellent. Never heard of that sauce combination before I went there. The flavor was great. Flava Wings is top notch.

We were impressed by the flavor selection and the price point. While it was a trek to get to the location, the establishment was extremely well maintained and the employees were so friendly! We recommend this spot to all of our friends!

Ordered the turkey wing combo in sweet n sicky and 10 wing combo in bangin blk pepper and kickin korean. Both combos absolutely delicious!!!We ordered to-go and when opening the box at home it was still HOT and the fries still CRUNCHY! Love that.These wings are worth the price, they are Thicc and Juicy!*** MADE 2 ORDER TAKE TIME, CALL AHEAD TO ORDER***Completely worth the wait! IG@ClutchCityChows

Best wings I've had. Quite a nice surprise! They gave me a lot of food. I got a heaping amount of crispy cajun seasoned crinkle fries with the 6 of bone in sweet and sticky wings and oh boy! Let me tell ya! Those are some Flava wings. The fries don't look as big of a portion as they really are because they are in this white sack but when you open it up there's a ton.

10/10 We tried the OoooWeee Sweet & Sticky, New School Buffalo Sauce, Zesty Lemon Pepper loved it! Also we had the salt and pepper fries & the Cajun fries 10/10. Lastly we had the DELIGHTFUL POWDERED BEIGNETS 10/10 everything was so good would definitely try again!

A strong 4! Everything was cooked to order. Chicken was fried just right and seasoned pretty well. We tried 5 flavors (burbon black pepper, buffalo, sweet and sticky, garlic parmesan and lemon pepper) and they were all really good. The fries could have been fried harder but they were seasoned well. Cajun corn was yummy and not overcooked. Service was decent and the restaurant was very clean. Compared to Wing Stop: Taste/Quality is superior and pricing is comparable (only $4-5 more for a family pack.) I would definitely recommend this place.

Flava wings are amazing! Definitely better than wing stop, buffalo wild wings, etc. Just a word of warning though, their wings are huge compared to most places, so if you usually get 20 wings at wing stop you'll probably only need 10 wings from here. Their sweet and sticky is the best flavor and I recommend the fries with salt and pepper. The wings are made to order so make sure you order ahead of time so they'll be ready by the time you get there. You will definitely get your moneys worth here.
