Bayou Hot Wings

Wings were some of the best I've had in a long time. Maybe the best. Price was super fair and wings are decent size too. All in all couldn't ask for more in a wing spot!

After the Tulane game we tried to get a Lyft/Uber but the wait looked to be over an hour. We decided to hit up the area to see what was around but surprisingly a few of the local bars seemed to be closing up shop or were packed. We ended up at a little plaza and saw the sign for Bayou Hot WIngs. We made no attempt to look this place up and went in to check it out.What a good sign, first picture we saw was Adam Richman and there was a small blurb that he called this one of the best wings. We decided to check it out and there was no turning back....mainly due to the hour long damn wait for a ride back downtown NOLA.I ordered the hot wings and a drink. My friend got hot wings and some fries. The place had a lot of people placing orders and seemed super popular. It didn't take long and we were out of here with our wings. We decided to eat on some tables that were outside. Beautiful night and the wings were really good. There was pretty decent texture on it and it was sauced well but not over sauced were the wings were swimming in sauce. The heat wasn't bad, a decent level for sure. I'd definitely come back if I was in the area...or would come after every Tulane game.Thanks Adam Richman for dropping in here and convincing me...pretty easily after seeing your reco here.

Finally tried BHW for the first time ever and .... it was okay. Well the Bayou Burger was spectacular and cooked to our temp. It tastes as if they use hot sausage in the meat as well. I ordered sweet heat wings and expected something different. Thai Chill was good though. I'd go back but not necessarily for the wings and this is a wings spot so there's that.

I ordered the bayou hot boy wings. Fries were good. Blue cheese was the best I've ever had. Wings were good but there was a sweetness about it I didn't like. Overall I would go again.

This is probably unbelievable considering that I'm vegetarian but Bayou Hotwings is a major part of my life. I used to get the chicken here (so juicy) and then I became vegetarian and continued exploring the sauces. My boyfriend and I have probably spent over $100 or $200 on sauce bottles here when we visit, they're just unlike any hot sauce we've tried anywhere (and we are addicted to hot sauce). Please, even if your vegetarian, if you like spice come try Bayou Hot Wings. It's easy to find parking, good for take away or eat in at the tables outside, and the staff is super nice. My only complaint is that stomachs have a capacity and the food doesn't just magically appear at my table in California. Thankfully, I can have Beast every morning with my eggs thanks to their bottles for sale.

Disclaimer, this was an online order so I can only comment on the food. First off, these have got to be the tiniest wings I've ever had. Mostly all breading and very little meat. It genuinely looks like pigeon wings, they're that tiny. The flavor of the wings was really good though. We also got the chicken pesto wrap. It was mostly lettuce and didn't taste like pesto at all. It had good flavor, but disappointing for sure. The alligator bites were star of the show. No complaints on those. Great breading and great flavor. It was also frustrating that our wings were not separated by flavor, they were just thrown together in the same box.

I don't really care for hot wings but this joint does sling some great burgers, chicken sandwiches and other nice items.  The prices here are also a great value and you get a large portion of food for a very reasonable price.  The main downside of this place is it really isn't built for dining at the location as they have very limited seating inside and a table outside.  They also only have bottled drinks and no freshly brewed iced tea which always saddens me.  The quality of the food seems to have degraded during the pandemic situation and they have added stricter rules for ordering so now you have to call ahead or use their website to order so no more walking up to order. Overall though for a large delicious burger with nice fries this is one of the best values in the area along with offering some surprises on the menu you won't find in any other hot wing place outside of NOLA.My video review of Bayou Hot Wings is here:https://youtu.be/ZIKai68rLLM

Called in to pick up food and when me and my friends arrived we were getting scoffed at and talked about in the kitchen as if we had done something wrong by ordering their food. Wings are okay but they really need to rethink their staff or their mindset to get people coming back.

Little wings, decent flavor, and I want to try they other food. I had the Korean bbq wings. It was straight. Fries aight.

Absolutely the best wings in the city! I love the little seating area in the front and the service was way faster than we expected
