Back after 8 months…read more ​Rating: (3/5) ​I stopped by the Hamden location in the plaza right around 10:50 AM. I was the only person in the store, but it still took about 16-17 minutes for a 10-piece to come out. While that's not a deal-breaker, it felt like a long stretch for being the first customer of the day with an empty shop. ​The Wings: I went with the Mango Habanero but got the sauce on the side so I could control the heat. This is definitely a winner if you're a fan of spicy food--it's got a great kick and just the right amount of sweetness. If you're sensitive to heat, this might be a bit much for you, but for me, it hit the spot. ​The Quality: The wings were cooked thoroughly and had a nice, golden crisp. One odd thing: the aroma coming from the bag had a distinct "fish fry" smell, almost like the oil was shared with fried fish (even though they don't serve it here). Luckily, it didn't affect the taste at all--the flavor was solid. ​Final Verdict: Overall, I'd give the wings themselves a 6.5/10, and the experience a 6/10. It's not bad for fast-food chicken, just be prepared to wait a bit even if you're the only one there.

After having brunch, I stopped by WingStop in Hamden to try out their 70 cents boneless wing deal…read more It's $7.49 for 10 wings which you can get two flavors, 1 flavor for 5 wings. I opened them straight after they were given to me to eat them hot. I got the flavors Original Hot & Hot Honey Rub. I will say my favorite was the Hot Honey. I loved the crunch and the sweet and savory flavor it had to offer. The Hot ones were okay, just an average hot wing sauce. Their ranch has been hyped for a while and for my first time it wasn't that bad. I would definitely go back again and try some other menu items. I waited about 25 minutes for my order so I would say service is slow but maybe it was a busy day. The inside is has a small area to eat if that's what you're looking to do. Pretty clean from what I saw.

I got buffalo wings, BBQ wings side of mac and cheese, yams and egg rolls, and greens to go. I got my order to go but when I got home the yam juice leaked onto the mac, greens and no juice left on yams. It was because the hot food collapsed the styrofoam. disappointed!!! I called the owner and he will make it right for my next visit. Those items I will have to review at a later date because everything tasted so sweet from the yam juice. Could not salvage those sides. Now let's talk egg rolls please. Those egg roll are AMAZING. I got a buffalo egg roll, steak and cheese, and hamburger egg roll. Each and every one was FANTASTIC. Get those. The wings were great. The taste was amazing on both flavors . I chose the buffalo and BBQ wet flavor. I really like the fact the wings were not the size of mini turkey wings. Those large wings are usually so meaty you chew for days. Woody Wings are just the right size. The inside of the restaurant is very cute for those that choose to dine in. They have good music as well. Next time you need some wings check out Woody Wings you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!!

TBH, I only get pizza and salad, so this reflects that. The salads change with the seasons and what is fresh and tasty at the time... my favorite is when they have their berry salad - OMG - so delicious. The name says it all peppered with raspberries, blackberries... and more... but I must commend the balsamic vinaigrette!! I've never had a more delicately flavored dressing. I got one for a friend as take out once, and they too raved over it. The pizza is great as well. To each their own when it comes to pizza for certain.

And now here I am asking all my friends "Did you know New Haven has some of the best pizza?!" I ordered via Uber Eats with delivery to my hotel. They messed up the delivery, so unfortunately the pizza wasn't piping hot once I finally found it. However, it didn't need to be. The flavor was a masterpiece! It was spicy, with just the right amount of cheese and sauce. The sauce was not the tangy cheap-tasting sauce that I sometimes stumble upon so I was happy about that. The crust was not hard, but not soft. I was pleasantly surprised that it had so much flavor, yet was not at all greasy. I wish I knew how to describe it better, but I guess you'll have to try it for yourself! ;)

We tried 3 different wing flavors: buffalo, cajun dry rub, and garlic parm. Overall, the wings were somewhat disappointing - the meat was a bit dry (still decent for the price though). The buffalo flavor was my favorite as it helped balance out the dryness out and it had a nice kick. The garlic parm and cajun dry rub were on the saltier side but nice with the blue cheese and ranch on the side which helped to mellow these out. The star of the show was their Bar Burger - perfectly cooked, juicy and topped with BBQ sauce, grilled onions, bacon, and cheddar cheese. The portion of fries was generous too. Though they do offer a large variety of food on their menu, their burgers. in particular are delicious. Drinks were great, service was attentive and quick, and the atmosphere was laidback. Overall, a solid option for grabbing a draft or a late night bite!
