House of Wings

This is my second time at House of Wings and they continue to impress! I originally found this spot from a TikTok video and I’m so glad I did because it absolutely lives up to the hype. The service is always friendly and attentive, and the food… AMAZING. The wings are full of flavor, cooked perfectly, and the sauces are unmatched. I’ve tried a few places in Chicago, but this one is definitely at the top of my list. I’ve been satisfied each time and will definitely keep coming back. Highly recommend! 👏🍗🔥

I saw a video about these wings on TikTok and had to have them. I got the crispy Buffalo wings (7 jumbo wings) & a water and I spent a little more than $15. I think the price is a little steep for party wings, but the wings were good. The sauce is definitely house-made and it was super flavorful. The service was good and quick. The only thing is that when I heated the wings up later on, they were pretty soggy. Other than that, it is definitely worth a try.

Delicious wings! I ordered the small size wings in Buffalo sauce; they were nicely done. The Buffalo sauce is nicely balanced—tangy with a hint of sweetness and heat. The wings were served with a side of ranch sauce and cut celery. The ambience is old school take out. They gave me a complimentary can of soda when they saw that I was dining in. I plan to return and try the BBQ flavor.

Omg so good, I decided to wait until I got home to eat them. I got home and told myself to heat up the spaghetti and try one while I wait. NEXT thing I know I ATE them all, lol. I couldn't put them down. First time there & I will surely be back ! Crispy BBQ and their tiny ( original size b4 steroids) which is a Plus

The staff was so nice. My first time trying them. Got take out. I tried their crispy wings, teriyaki flavor and the buffalo. Both were delicious. Their buffalo is not the traditional buffalo sauce you might be used to but it is good. The fries with mild sauce was so good too. Will definitely be eating wings from here again for sure.

I was at this place House of Wings recently to pick up an order and there was an older fellow at the counter acting as the cashier and bagging orders that was literally screaming at no one, at nothing, just at himself. My guess is he is the owner. For the first 10 minutes that I arrived at the restaurant the employees didn’t say a word, he just kept screaming and suddenly letting out weird high pitch screams.

First time trying this place and I can say These were the Best wings I’ve tasted! Traveled over 45 minutes to try it. I ordered the small buffalo wings and small crispy buffalo wings. Excellent customer service. The buffalo sauce is very unique and the wings were fresh!

Very nice service I love it here me and my grandpa favorite place ❤️ 💙

Alright, I saw multiple tik toks say this is the best wings in Chicago, and I am here to tell you that is 100% not true!. I got the spiciest option of the jumbo wings. They were kind of like soggy and just not that spicy. Was overall just unimpressed but I might've just have had my hopes super high. The guy working was super nice though. If you are looking for good wings I would walk across the street to Other Side Bar, those are the best wings I have had so far in Chicago.

House of Wings is a small take-out shop that you should certainly try if you're looking for some solid Buffalo wings. I ordered a small batch of the crispy wings with suicide level flavor. The owner warned me of their heat but still went ahead with them. Boy was I'm glad I did - they were certainly hot but not to the point that it too painful to consume. Not to mention good buffalo sauce flavor. Perhaps a little pricy ($20 with a soda) but I definitely enjoyed and will go back.

Great wings, good service and great prices. It's always reliable. And great mozzarella sticks.

I always my first option for wings, not just because I live next door but because the owner is quite nice.

I wasn't going to write a review because I've only ever ordered delivery so it's not a full experience, but I was reading some of the old bad reviews and was really shocked! I think the restaurant must have changed some things in the last few years - for the better! I have never had the option to choose small or large wings, and the wings I have gotten are big. Not massive like Crisp but definitely a standard jumbo wing with a ton of meat. I really love the crispy ones because you get that extra layer with the breading. Some people also complained about the sauce - I did not find the Buffalo sauce to be sweet at all! It's a little spicy and nice and thick. The BBQ is sweeter. I want to try the suicide next! Pro tip: if you have leftovers, the crispy wings reheat amazingly in the air fryer!

Customer service is horrible Went in the place order wings and Italian beef ask for oil that come with the peppers he gets a attitude and ask whats wrong I said I just came in here and spent $30 and you giving me a attitude he says $30 is not a lot of money well give it back then you will never get my money if you don't appreciate me spending it I spend my money where people appreciate me spending it with them that's it that's all when it was time to give the money back he's now huffing and puffing with a attitude I said to him thought it wasn't no money have a nice day

I am visually impaired, asked the owner to help me order..je said go online....ordered 10 wings small and a polish. The wings are hockey pucks they are so hard and overcooked. NO MEAT on the bones the polish was just okay...My real issue is while waiting, he was apparently upset with one of his worker, (he was a young black man) and the owner is Asian. The owner started shouting and berating this young man in the front of customers, it was awful to hear and see. Unprofessional in the least. First and last time going to this spot.

I saw someone on Tik Tok rave about these wings. So I decided to give them a try. Pros Hardworking drop sweating owner and his assistant Cooked from order Cons Hard chicken and I didn't ask for crispy Buffalo tasted like they added some sugar Wings lacked meat and flavor Fries were hot and hard $20 and I didn't even finish the order Never again! I am missing out on the wonder.

This place has been around for so many years and I'm not surprised at all. Small family business that does wings right. Everything is made fresh. Love their buffalo flavor and would try other flavors in the future.

Chicken small but delicious, the owner nice guy, location is small so may want to wait in your car not a lot of seats

I'm a fat guy and I couldn't finish these wings. Dry and flavorless, you can do better than this Chicago

Legit my favorite wing joint in the city. I used to order for delivery all the time during the pandemic. Like on a weekly basis. I was OBSESSED! I get the crispy suicide wings (hack: order it with the sauce on the side so they're still very crispy when they get to you). Their suicide sauce is soooo good! I have since moved to LA but have not been able to find a wing place I love as much as House of Wings. I just spent the past 4 months back in Chicago and was so happy to have HOW back into my weekly rotation. I'm happy to support this small business. The owner is very kind and really cares about his food and his customers! Can't recommend this place enough!

I ordered via GrubHub. The Buffalo Chicken wings were moist, juice, nicely sauced and fall off the bone-delicious and large sized. I like that they were NOT breaded! Why only 4 stars? The dipping sauce was so watered down and runny with zero taste. Everyone likes the combo if "authentic" ranch or blue cheese to accompany a superb wing.

One of my favorite wing spots in the city! Sadly, don't live close by anymore, but trekked down to grab some for our Super Bowl menu. It did not disappoint and our guests loved them too. We typically get the buffalo, which I love, but added the teriyaki this time and they were great! Should note this place is Asian owned, so the flavors are definitely Asian inspired. The buffalo isn't the same flavor profile as a Buffalo Joe's or Birds Nest. Some of the comments seem to have expected a traditional buffalo hot wing flavor. All in all, still love this place!

It's just so good. Cute lil wing spot on the corner. The parking is terrible but the food is worth the inconvenience. I get the extra crispy bbq wings w/a side of suicide sauce to drizzle on top w/blue cheese FIRE!! the owner is so polite. And the service is prompt & kind.

i tried the naked buffalo wings and they were great . The service was also very good. I am definitely going to return again soon

Very friendly and nice and the wings are some of the best wings I've had in Chicago I definitely went back a few days later to get more and they were just as good

I didn't think it could be possible to make fried chicken taste this bad. I took one bite out of the Buffalo chicken wing and promptly threw the rest in the trash. The chicken was completely soggy and the taste was off. Incredibly unappetizing. Total waste of almost $20 after delivery fees. Would NEVER recommend this place. They should pay customers to eat their nasty food.

Hands down my absolute favorite place to get a few wings! They are so amazing! (I recommend 20 pieces!) I absolutely love their teriyaki sauce! The owner is so incredible! Please show him respect! He is hard working and has always been super kind! It is a very very small walk-in style place, but there are like 3-4 seats (2 bar stools and 1-2 chairs) so do not go to stay! Pick up your wings and go over to the park, or by the Nature museum and chill and enjoy! They do not have late hours, so I recommend going before 8pm! It is better than going to a bar to order wings! So I recommend going there, then fall into any number of surrounding bars (The Tin Lizzy, or the Gas Light bar & grill directly across the street!) Hands down, yummy!

Food was great. Had the wings and onion rings...delicious. Only complaint is that I paid $$7 for 4 onion rings. This is not an exaggeration...just 4.

The wings are amazing. I love the suicide flavor. Don't listen to the bad reviews. I've tried a lot of wings around Chicago and these are up there for sure

Service is decent, Food is super good, There is no music and space is very small. Owner is accommodating still. I'd recommend if you want some spicy wings downtown!

Chicken wings were decent, where the price was cheap at a good welcoming restaurant. Usually, get the hot wings. The venue is sometimes quite busy, and you can feel the chaos, but it's worth a gamble to visit. The wings area is sometimes quite inconsistent during rush hours, and unfortunately, this happens quite often, usually a huge fan.

Love this place nd love seeing the same two people working there too lol. Perfect to go place. Wings and fries are always fresh and amazing. I literally go out of my way to go here, but it's worth it plus all the bars near by why not lol. I never eat in always take to go and eat at Lincoln park or right across the street at the barley patio. Best part he comes outside and tells me my food is ready. Amazing. I've brought several people here just to try. I found on TikTok lol not it's my personal gem. I always get jumbo all flats, sauce hot, fried with mild sauce and he lets you add how much you want. The sauce rates like Harold's back in the day just better.

I ordered the buffalo chicken wings. These are the saddest excuse for a wing I have ever experienced. The wings are tiny-- I actually don't know where these teeny tiny chickens are from-- there is actually no meat on the bones. The sauce is horrible-- I'm pretty sure they mixed ketchup with vinegar and called it a day. The ratio of sauce to chicken is roughly 8:1-- I'm basically just eating shitty ketchup. My boyfriend thinks these wings smell like rotten feet; they made him gag. The blue cheese doesn't taste right; it is watery. The celery is droopy and very small. For a place whose specialty is wings, it's a wonder that they are still in business. This is the worst chicken wing experience I have ever had in my life. For the record, the chicken wing was barely the size of a wet nap.

Wings are great, amazing flavor and nice and crispy. I personally like the smaller wings, and these are just super solid and reliable.

Lost a year of my life from the deep fired everything but it was a worthwhile sacrifice. I ordered a pizza puff, cheese sticks, fries, garlic bread, and some BBQ wings. I didn't have a single complaint. Though a good note is the fries come unsalted so make sure you have some if you want it. So affordable and so filling. I just found my favorite joint around the neighborhood. Got meat sweats but I couldn't be happier.

Wings are not worth it 7 jumbo wings $15 dollars to expensive , the regular wings are so small they got no meat at all , won't be going back smh

Great place for wings. Very basic little pick up spot. I think you might be able to sit at the window but that's it. Great Buffalo wings.

The hot wings taste like spicy marinara sauce and the meat was dry. It was a waste of money. I ordered Buffalo Crispy Chicken I only ate two, it was not good.

amazing wings. the suicide flavor are my favorite for sure. I love this place so much. i personally enjoy wings a lot and I've been to many wing spots in the city, and this is bar far one of my favorites.

The wings were old, cold, and tough! Ordered jumbo the the size was ok. Asked for crispy skin but nothing even close! Fries was cold but ok! The Buffalo sauce was sweet and more like marinara.

Not the traditional Buffalo Wing flavor but very very good and somewhat addictive even especially the suicide. The owners are very kind and the homemade tarter sauce is so good I get it to dip my wings in!!! Better fresh when you can pick them up and eat immediately but even delivered I love them so much.

I loved my wings! I got a double order (starving) of buffalo delivered with my boyfriend's double order of extra crispy teriyaki wings. Mine were perfectly crisp and had lots of sauce- I didn't even need the extra sauce I ordered (I hate dry wings). The teriyaki wings were less impressive- maybe the extra crispy-ness threw things off? The sauce was super thin and didn't seem to stick to the chicken, resulting in a pretty bland wing. Maybe BBQ was the way to go for my boyfriend, who is less obsessed with spicy food. The buffalo sauce was unique- it was thicker than most and had a touch of sweetness. While unexpected, it was delicious. I used my extra sauce for a chicken dish later in the week! I'll be back for more.

I am a frequent customer and it is great. They make the bbq chicken so good I also got a lollipop!Keep up the great work!

Food was delicious! Love the small crispy teriyaki wings. Service was great, very nice to us. Overall great experience, would come back!

After searching and searching for somewhere to eat dinner, we came across House of Wings and decided to give it a try. We ordered one 7 piece wing, a philly cheese steak, fries with cheese and a pizza puff. Where do I start, the wings weren't completely disgusting. It was some juicy chicken but not very crispy. The buffalo sauce was your standard store bought sauce which both that and the chicken lacked flavor. The cheese steak looked like something I could have made myself. Lacked so much flavor and it was on a hogie roll. It wasn't until I ate a fry that I knew I wouldn't return to this place. They were missing the most basic ingredient of all, SALT. Bland bland bland, and the cheese! The cheese was cold (maybe because he warmed it in the microwave and then put in a separate container and not on the fries) and had the weirdest taste to it. My fiance says he enjoyed the pizza puff, but to me it was greasy and doughy. Not good at all. I have to say I was hoping for much more considering all the good reviews, but this was a pure let down all around, won't return!

I just ordered from here tonight, because I had a major craving for quality wings. I ordered the 'crispy' Buffalo wings and the Buffalo chicken tender sandwich...both were terrible. The wings were chewy and cold, the fries were dry and the sandwich was inedible. This was a major disappointment and a waste of $30.

goated establishment. the sauce is unique and not to be found anywhere else. the service is speedy and without error. lots of variety in drinks.

Love House of Wings! So much so that I've ordered it twice a week before! I also order it for parties or for work events. And it's always a hit! I get it with the sauce on the side. The wings come piping hot and so crispy! The suicide sauce seriously got me salivating just thinking about it right now. Highly recommend. The owner is the sweetest man and tries the best he can so I really hate seeing these one star reviews. Def think he's worth giving a second chance to!

The buffalo wings left a lot to be desired. They weren't fried hard enough, so by the time that they arrived, they were a little soggy. The sauce also wasn't great to me. They were accompanied with ranch, instead of the bleu cheese that I asked for. The pizza puff that I ordered was pretty decent. Definitely tastier than the wings.

I've been wanting to try this place for a while for their wings, and decided to try each type (naked bbq, naked buffalo, crispy bbq, crispy buffalo). I really liked all 4 types of wings, but preferred the crispy to the naked. They were juicy and plenty hot even after being delivered. Fries were good too. The bbq wings were sweet with just a bit of tangy. The buffalo I'd classify as mild to medium. They don't seem hot at all at first, but then a nice mellow heat sets in. Very nice. I could have gone a little hotter, but that's just me. I'd definitely order there again when I need some wings.

Hands down worst food I've ever had. Fries were undercooked and unsalted. Chicken tenders were over cooked. Both are hard to mess up

Not quite sure what's going on at House of Wings, but I came on 3 different days recently at around 5pm and they were closed. Today, there's a "closed July 1st thru 5th" sloppy handwritten sign in the window. A wing joint closed for the 4th of July weekend??? Wanna bet there's another Clark St vacancy coming soon??? Not sure if I want to eat food from a place that's closed more than it's open anyways..... RIP, H.O.W's.....

The best wings in Chicago, hands down! I'm also a pizza puff connoisseur and their puff beats any other puff in Chicago in all my 30+ years... love this spot.

Awful service. Took almost two hours and three phone calls to get wings. We ordered based off the internet menu which did not display any difference between small and jumbo wings, and the person taking our order did not ask. When our wings finally arrived, we had a box of soggy fries after sitting in their own moisture for a couple hours. The wings were completely underwhelming and the most sad sack "jumbo" wings I've ever seen. They were average to small size, if you told someone on the street they were jumbo they would laugh at you. The taste of the wings was the epitome of mediocrity and entirely uninspired. Do not patronize this establishment.

We've ordered these twice.. this week. I was tired of BWW on Clybourn ruining every order. Tried this place, and I'm glad we did. The "large" sized wings are BIG, but not in a gross way. In a good way. The sauces are simple, but on point. Buffalo is our favorite. The BBQ was good and the Suicide sauce was just a tiny bit too spicy for me. Buffalo all the way. Onion rings are also decent.

My first time coming here and I will be back! These are by far the best wings I have ever eaten! The buffalo crispy chicken the flavors are so on point they know what they are doing in the kitchen.

Food - 5/5 Stars First time customer a couple weeks ago. The wings were big, plump and juicy. Their buffalo sauce coated each wing rather generously and was a good amount of heat and flavor, but not too much heat either. The Buffalo sauce seemed to me to have a bit of an Asian flavor flare going on in it too but I couldn't quite put my finger on what seasoning or flavor it was. Regardless of what it was, or if I was mistaken about that flavor being there or not, it worked. Their Buffalo sauce was very good and the flavor seemed to be a bit unique flavor without it being too different. The wings also came with a good sized portion of blue cheese dressing and celery sticks that were all cool, crisp and fresh. Really good food all around. Service - 5/5 Stars The wings were served boxed up, hot and ready to go in a prompt time frame after placing my order using Ritual. Also, I called 2x before placing my order with 2 different questions. I believe that the man who answered was the owner. He was very nice, professional, patient and answered all my questions accurately and completely. They also included a good amount of napkins and a wet nap in my to-go bag. I was pleased with that as well. Value - 5/5 Stars It was definitely a good value. Fair price for the 8 (??? I believe) wings I got in my order. Worth every penny! Will definitely be returning for more!
