The Most Delicious Chicken Wings in Memphis

Prince's Hot Chicken South

★★★★☆ 3.8 (917) • $$

"We came around lunch time, it took about 20 minutes for our chicken pieces to come out. The chicken was oily but flavorful. The quarter breast was decent size."

Germantown Pub

★★★★☆ 3.7 (253) • $$

"This bar used to look really new in 2017 while the staff used to seem very experienced like they had been doing it for years. Tall boy cans seem to be the order of the day here and they have tall boys for beers I have never seen tall boys for before. The bartenders were really great, friendly, attentive, provided fast service and remembered my name every time I ordered. They have a small little patio on the side that was mostly filled with the smokers. This seems to be more of a sports bar vibe than anything else and they also have a decent menu and I've sampled some of the food and it is alright but there are way better options in the area these days. The parking lot is a bit small and often is full but it is usually easy to find street parking a block or so away. Overall this used to be a cool little spot to enjoy some sports. Back during my first few visits in 2017 I got the impression here that the staff were really nice folks and the bar offered fair prices and provided a nice comfortable venue so it was just a good spot to be if you were in the area. In the years since my first visit this bar just kept being less enjoyable to me. I used to always make sure to pay a visit to the Germantown Pub during every visit I made to Nashville but now I find it just isn't a place I want to stop at anymore as all the friendly bartenders seem to have left. My video review of Germantown Pub is here:https://youtu.be/1dkdAgmYZug"

Ching's Hot Wings

★★★★☆ 3.9 (209) • $$

"Oh MY! So I am from TN but live in Oregon now. I was recommended this place by a friend in Oregon. I was in the area so I came by. My friends recommendation did not disappoint.He told me to get the blue lemonade and wet wings. SO GOOD. I wish I had got more! The fries were good. I could've drank a gallon of the blue lemonade. The staff was really friendly and you could tell everyone there was enjoying their food. GO! You will not regret it!"

Mineo's Pizza & Wings

★★★★☆ 3.8 (203) • $$

"I love eating local, and I love supporting local businesses. However, I cannot get behind paying $30 for a two topping large pizza that I have to pickup (no delivery option). Called in a 2 topping order, they told us it would be 20 to 25 minutes. after about 40 minutes, it was finally done and the bill was nearly $28 before tip. All said and done $30 for one pizza. No thanks.I also called them one time for a large (50 1 topping pizzas) order for our neighborhood (that again I would pick up). Gave them a couple weeks advance notice too. After explaining to me that this would require them to bring in additional labor for the day, etc. they essentially offered me 5% off the full price menu. I ended up going down the street for literally 1/3 the price. Not going to name other businesses or disparage anybody, but that's just not competitive."

Connie's Fried Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.2 (152) • $

"The food was delicious and a traditional southern meal. Blueberry donuts are only served in the morning, so go early enough to get them (I hear they are amazing). They were sold out of some chicken, but prepared some shortly after. Delicious food, and sooo fairly priced."

Strikeout Wingz

★★★★☆ 4.2 (148)

"I'm usually on the hunt for good wings in nashville and surrounding areas. But this place wasn't it. The wings were small, cold and tasted like they were cooked hours before serving. The sweet and sassy sauce was good. The ranch fries were really good. But overall the place really lacked a lot. They automatically charge you 20% tip (so look at your bill) and the service wasn't worth 20%. Overall I give two stars, they just missed the mark when it came to service, quality and customer service."

Three Guys Pizza Pies

★★★★☆ 4 (140) • $$

"Three Guys Pizza Pies is my go to spot for pizza! I always enjoy eating their food and the service is AWESOME! The store is always nice and clean and the staff are SUPER friendly. I ordered the cheese bread and pepperoni pizza I was also given the option to have hot honey drizzled onto the pizza and I'm glad I did!"

Smooth Living

★★★★☆ 4.2 (125) • $$

"Been here twice now! Their lunch special comes with 2 hood rolls and a smoothie for around $15. So nice to have some healthier options in the area. Both the smoothies I've tried have been 5/5! So good! The rolls are a bit blah to me, I'd give them a 3/5. Stop by for a smoothie you won't be disappointed. Service is also great!"

Hattie B's Hot Chicken

★★★★★ 4.5 (97) • $$

"First time trying Hattie B's and they definitely didn't disappoint! I know they're hyped up as one of the best chicken joints in TN so I've been wanting to try them out.My husband and I weren't too hungry when we visited though so we decided to share the dirty bird fries. Highly recommend! It was a good amount for two adults. We both loved the fries with all the toppings it came with. Top notch as far as loaded fries go!Service was quick and the interior was kept very clean. We came on a Friday afternoon and it was packed! But surprisingly the wait wasn't too long for us to get our food.I will definitely be back to try more of their options! Their chicken sandwich and the desserts sound delightful!"

Hot Stuff Spicy Chicken and Fish

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (149) • $

White House Pizza and Pub

★★★★☆ 3.9 (111)

"I've tried them several times. Very pleasant service, decent prices. For my taste, a little noisy and too salty."

Mack's Hot Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.1 (96)

"This place is good. Tried them based on a friend's recommendation and I can't lie it was really good. The fish and chicken was cooked fresh to order. The fried pickles were a little greasy but tasted amazing also. Overall I would go back and try a different spice level."

Roma Pizza & Pasta

★★★★☆ 3.7 (115) • $$

"The seven cheese pizza is absolutely delicious! It was ready quickly, and the employees were very friendly. Cute place near the airport and my hotel!"

Caesar's Italian Pizza & Restaurant

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (189) • $

"FUCK THIS PLACE!!! They don't perform or deliver...DINT ORDER FROM THEM!!!!They said that they couldn't make a pizza, wings and a salad! Deliver to MY HOTEL, BUT CHARGED ME $50! Now I got to fight my bank and these mother fuckers for my $$$! They can go eat a bowl of dicks!"

Helen’s Hot Chicken

★★★★☆ 3.5 (105)

"Service was great. Food was DELICIOUS! Great music playing while we ate. Will be back again."

JD's Wings 2 Go

★★★★☆ 4.4 (63) • $$

"The food here was amazing! I was trying to find a new wing place near my house and JD's came up in my search. The customer service over the phone was good and the lady that answered all my questions. We ordered wings and was very satisified with the size and favor. We odered 25 whole wings - honey love and lemon pepper flavors. We can see this place being a new family favorite."

The Wing Guru

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (101) • $$

"I randomly wanted some wings and came across this wing shop. When I went in and ordered I noticed the prices were higher than your usual wing place but I was not going to wing stop lol they used to be my go to but now you have an 80% chance your food and/or experience is about to be trash lol so I ordered anyways. I got a 10 piece honey hot and a 10 piece dry seasoning with large seasoned fries. When I sat down to wait on my order, I noticed all of the complaints on the wall. Then it hit me why the food had a premium on it so I was praying that the shop wasn't all hype. Let me tell y'all these were seriously the best wings I've had in a very long time! The skin wasn't slimy and the sauce was on point. The wings were super wet. I will definitely only come here to get my wings from now on. The people taking your order is nice as well and super friendly! Easy in and out."

The Crazy Coop

★★★★★ 4.6 (55)

"Now why y'all didn't tell me about this spot?! I didn't know what to expect. I honestly thought it would be another bland chicken spot with a limited menu....boyyyyy was I wrong! Once I saw the menu in person (not the same online, more options), I wanted to try so much! I end up ordering a fish plate. I'm so glad they grilled option. I had it with green beans and fried okra. The fish was seasoned to perfection and it was served hot! The okra was really good as well. They were seasoned good as well. Plus they weren't greasy and heavy. I also had the cheeseburger. OMG! It was so juicy. I enjoyed all of the fresh toppings from the onions, lettuce, and tomatoes! My hubby had the lemon pepper hot wings and Parmesan cheese fries. Unfortunately, I couldn't try neither of those, but I will soon! ;) The service was really good! They made the experience all the better. The ambiance was super casual and filled with a Memphis themes. I can't wait to go back and try other menu items. I loved it!"

Mike's Hot Wings & Such - Germantown

★★★★☆ 4.4 (53)

"Mikes Hot Wings & Such located in Germantown is serving up cook to order food. I ventured there during lunch and the service was fast. In addition to fast service, the facility was neat and clean, and the customer was exceptional. I will definitely going back for seconds! What I ordered: Catfish Basket and Seasoned Fries"

Brooklyn Pizza & Cafe

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (85) • $$$

"Lots of good veggies (onions, peppers, tomatoes and black olives) on the Veggie pizza but the pizza crust and sauce were bland, and there was very, very little cheese on the pizza ....making for a mediocre pizza. The delivery was quicker than quoted, thank you, but I will continue to search for a great tasting pizza."

East Coast Wings + Grill

★★★☆☆ 3 (108) • $$

"It has an extensive beer selection and an elevated sound atmosphere, but for a good reason: it's meant to be a sports bar with lots of TVs and the ability to see games. Upon arrival, the waitress was polite and quick to attend to us. The chicken was good and full of flavor.. I should have asked for it to be a little crispier, but that's on me. There are SO many flavors!! We had 4 different ones at the table and they were all great. Even the fries were good, very crispy and fresh."

JT's Burgers & Wings

★★★☆☆ 3.4 (78) • $$

"IDK why but I always forget about J.T.s. Guess cause they're location is tucked away a little. Clean place, with excellent service and delicious food. Try the BBQ egg rolls and the cajun wings."

Chris' Pizza Village Pleasant View

★★★★☆ 3.8 (55) • $$

"One of my favorite pizza joints here in pleasant view Tn.The pizza is delicious they have great sandwiches, salads and pasta. All made in house. The owner and his team provide awesome customer service as well.My favorite pizza they have is their BBq chicken pizza . Its to do die for."

"Food was excellent and service was good too! Nice and comfortable seating. Be careful if you order the mocjete"

The Thirsty Turtle

★★☆☆☆ 2.2 (161) • $$

"OMG! I love a good hole in the wall! The food was slamming! Spicy mango habanero sauce was great on everything! Getting it on your wings and shrimp is a must!!! And the pork skins! I thought I was home in Texas for a minute! Drinks were FIRE! Get a screaming orgy! The music was great! Crowd had good energy too! It was supposed to be karaoke night, but the DJ never really called anybody up to sing. That's why I gave this place 4 stars! This was a really fun night tho!"

Official Wings

★★★★☆ 4.4 (40)

"This spot just recently opened, but there are no kinks to work out. Pretty simple process order at the counter, which looks like an old food truck. They have a variety of sizes to choose from, from 5 pieces all the way to 20...I got the 7 Piece Whole Wings. Keep in mind that these are ALL wings, there are no little drumettes here...hence the name Official WINGS!Lots and lots and lots of flavors/sauces to choose from, so I went with the Official Hot sauce, which I was told was the hottest one they offer. Threw in some cajun crinkle fries and a Sprite to round out the lunch.The food came out from the kitchen quickly, presented in a black to-go box layered with foil to separate the wings from the fries. The fries were loaded with cajun seasoning, it's good to see a place not skimp on the seasoning. They were crispy and tasted really good...but they were not the star of the show. I didn't come here for some fries, I came here for the wings. Perfectly fried and tossed in that delicious Official Hot sauce. You know they do them well when that sauce hurts your fingers when you have a hangnail. They were hot, not gonna pretend they weren't...I got the head sweats when I ate 'em, but they were so stinkin' good! The sauce was hot, but not so hot that you couldn't taste the flavor. These guys at Official Wings know what they are doing y'all!I really like the fact that the wings were fried and THEN tossed in the sauce...so many places cook the sauce on the wing and they're not saucy at all.I will definitely be back, definitely! If you're in the area, check 'em out...best wings around. Bar none. My ONLY complaint is that I don't think they serve the wings with blue cheese dressing...I didn't think to ask and the choice was not offered, but hey, it's their wing joint, not mine. Keep up the good work Official Wings!"

Fowl N Out

★★★★☆ 3.7 (56)

"Fowl N Out was a recommendation, so we thought we would try them, and we placed an order for a Christmas party and was not disappointed! Boneless wings might be the best in DeSoto county - staff was friendly and very attentive. Appreciated how the made sure that the order was correct. Sauces on the side is the way we went, and it made for more options for dipping Highly recommend and definitely will be back!"

18 Wayz Wingz & Thingz

★★★★☆ 4.2 (41)

"YUM - these hot wings and fries were incredible. I think about these wings and my mouth is waters. I will definitely be back! I got regular hot, not too hot! Fries were seasoned perfectly and very good! Probably one of my new favorite wing places in memphis! Definitely check them out!"

Chicken Coop - Memphis

★★★★☆ 4.2 (40)

"First time here but really good wings and meaty. I like mine a little more crispy but the offset is the meat was really moist. Tasty fries and adding hot sauce to honey gold was nice. Need to try the hot now that I have tasted the chicken. Great service esp during lunch hour walk in and served in about 10 min. Still hot and crisp when I got to the office.A definite place to come back to"

Buffalo Wild Wings

★★☆☆☆ 2.3 (125) • $$

"Sports bars are the best. You get to watch all the games and get a couple of beers while chatting it up with friends.It is impossible to miss this place. It is in front of a strip mall and it looks much bigger than anything around it.I came here on Sunday afternoon to watch an NFL game. I ordered two tall beers and a hatch chile burger with fries.The waitress was doing a wonderful job working the entire bar area. I am surprised she was able to keep up with everyone and keep a smile on her face.The beers are really good. The burger also tasted great. I love eating grilled veggies on a burger. Fries were cooked fresh and seasoned to perfection."

Waffle Mania

★★★★☆ 3.8 (43) • $$

"This area has got to be the Capitol of chicken wings. What are there? 15-20 chicken wing places within a square mile? Not even counting the other various restaurants that also have chicken wings on the menu. I'll bet if you were dropped off anywhere on Winchester between Hickory Hill and Hack's Cross, you could walk like 100 yards and get chicken wings. I like wings, but I'm particular about them because most wings suck. Nothing really stands out between one place and another to lure me in. Except this place. It's chicken and waffles. True, there's a Waffle House about to open, but they don't have wings. Waffle Mania has that something different about it. The business started as a food truck but now is a store. He is a smart guy. He has his image on the walls and even made into the tables. They were putting a cool sign above the door while I was there also. I wish him the best of luck with all the local competition, but I think his edge might be the key to his success. As for the food, it was great. I've had wings till I'm nearly sick of wings and unless they're really good, I'm not impressed. Well it turns out I was really impressed. I've never had them quite this way. They were breaded much like catfish. Cornmeal and seasonings. The flavor even reminded me of catfish. I know that sounds strange, but I liked it. Usually I cover mine with hot sauce, but I liked these just the way they were. Also they were timed just perfectly in the fryer. The cornmeal had that perfect golden brown crunch and the meat was still juicy and tender. They were a bit on the small side, but perhaps they cook better this way. The menu promised me 3 wings but I was served 4 instead. Not sure if that's common practice, but it's what I got. The waffle was pretty dang good too. It had a hint of cinnamon and it worked well with the wings. They gave me a to go syrup, but there was syrup on the tables as well. I felt that the waffle was a bit doughy and could have cooked a bit more for that crunch. I'll add that the brix on the Coke was perfect! That's the term for adjusting the syrup and carbonated water in a fountain machine. Ever notice how McDonald's has the best tasting Coke? That's because most fools don't maintain and adjust their equipment. Most people don't know how to. I do. I have the tools. The Coke at Waffle Mania was that good. Another smart move. As for price, I spent $12 for the Mania Special, drink, and tax. It might have been $2 too much but I felt the quality was worth it. Also, this being fast food, tipping is not necessary, so it cancelled out. I felt like I got what I paid for. It seemed a little odd ordering through a window. I felt like I was buying a bus ticket. I was the first customer at 11 and the whole area around the drink machine was sticky. Other than that the place seemed clean. Service was fast. I didn't even have my drink made and they were handing me my food. If it was pre-made, mine didn't sit more than 2 minutes. It was super hot. I'd just wonder how much they pre cook and how long they keep it. All in all a good lunch. I'll return and try some sandwiches.9/26/17. I'm going down from 4 stars to three. The chicken philly sandwich was a sad excuse. My friend ordered chicken and waffles. He was nearly done when I got my sandwich. I couldn't even pick it up once without it falling out. Wrong bread. Barely had cheese. Chicken itself was just ok. And why don't they have beef philllys?8/21/18 I'm going down to two stars. They are playing rap music that has filthy and offensive language in every song. This is not appropriate for a public setting."
