Never got a chance to taste the food because the servers would not come to the bar give me and the person I was with greetings of ask or we what we wanted to drinks. the service was poor and after speaking to other customers in this establishment, they all been waiting over 15 to 20 minutes Before their entrées even hit the table and 15 mins before anyone came to place their order. The manager would not ever speak to us as we enter the establishment. read more

Came here tonight for my friend's birthday. The bartender was also our server and she was friendly, attentive and quick to our needs. They were out of a few weird things (one of the beers we ordered and appetizer plates -lol ‍) but we made due. We came accidentally on 75 cent wing night. I ordered a couple of wings to try and the bang bang shrimp tacos with sweet potato fries. It was my bad to order the tacos. I should've stayed with the wings. They were awesome. The tacos. Meh. I'm still giving 5/5 because it's my fault to order the tacos. Kids loved their cheeseburger and Mac and cheese. The Philly cheesesteak looked delicious. Apps we loved: loaded tots, fried pickles, onion rings, and mozzarella sticks. I didn't get pics of everyone else's food as it was a birthday but I'll come back when I'm craving wings. The place was clean, bathrooms serviced, and it was a cool spot. read more

You'd expect a business with the word wings in it to have good wings. These, however, are not even mediocre. I ordered hot wings and these wings barely had any sauce in them. Dry dry dry. read more

A mixed experience at East Coast Wings. More than a 2 hour wait for a table because of reduced seating capacity so decided to place an order to go. Only after ordering and payment did I learn that it would take 45 minutes for the to-go food. To-go orders are placed at the bar and the bartender was surly. Told me I wasn't able to use a discount coupon and pay with a gift certificate and that I couldn't use more than one gift certificate per visit. I'm all about following the rules, except these are rules that aren't on either the coupon or the certificate. Tore up the discount card and sweet talked use of the gift certificates. The food, once finally got it was very good. Crispy wings in just-hot-enough medium buffalo sauce. An even mix of wings and drums. House made chips that are firm and crunchy, lightly salted. Sweet potato waffle fries kind of limp, but pretty good after warmup in the air fryer at home. Based on the quality of the food I'll give them another try. I think I'll avoid sitting at the bar. read more

Synopsis: Wanted wings and tenders and found a place to never get wings and tenders from again. My girlfriend and I wanted to try a new spot for our refuel day and found East Coast Wings + Grill as a place we hadn't tried before. She ordered online which was painless and quick although that's where things stopped being positive. When she arrived to pick up the order she was informed that someone else had picked up our food and that she would need to wait for the food to be remade. The staff did offer $10 off the next order for the inconvenience and my girlfriend decided to stay and wait it out. It took a bit but eventually the food was given to her and she was able to leave, approximately 20 minutes after originally arriving. I've attached pictures of what I ordered. The main item for me was the chicken tenders which were frankly awful. They were supposed to be medium buffalo tenders and had no flavoring on them whatsoever. I also requested ranch to dip the tenders in of which there was none. They were dry and hard to get through and ended up getting tossed before I could even finish it. The pretzel bites were better but only marginally. The salt was all in piles in the container and very little actually on the bites themselves. There was also no honey mustard with those even though the order called for that. The fries weren't terrible but they were not fresh and capped off an overall terrible experience. My girlfriend's experience was similar to mine with her fries and her boneless wings but having hair in her meal really sealed the deal and ensured we won't ever go back. I hate to leave reviews like this but it was one slap in the face after another and made the one day in the week we can relax our diets miserable. 1 Stale Sauceless Star out of 5! read more

Wings really had a great flavor! Ordered buffalo but got no sauce on my wings? The other dry rub flavors were great though. Would recommend if u were eating inside and able to ask for more sauce or make sure sauce was on them. Wouldn't recommend take out. Seem like they don't really care abt what there doing. As well as my flavors were mixed up too. One wing was just garlic... when it was supposed to be buffalo. Again they did have a great flavor! read more

If I could leave less than a 1 star review, I would... I used to go to East Coast Wings every week for the wing specials in high school. It's been a few years since then, but wow have things changed! We sat for probably 15-20 minutes before anyone even acknowledged we were there. There were 4 maybe 5 other tables in the whole restaurant. Once we finally ordered, it took another 10-15 minutes to get our drinks. Food came out fast...but that's to be expected since everything was definitely frozen. I give the food a 2 out of 10. We got the wings and loaded tots. Such a shame this place has gone so downhill. read more

Service was horrible. waited 15 minutes and no one greeted the table. No host, no Bartender. I saw a few people eating so i'm assuming there are cooking. Lots of good wing options available. I'm shocked this location is still open. read more

****** 2/11/2024 ****** ToGo order was mostly correct. The wings are OK, a bit overcooked. The fries were ordered as BEER CHEESE FRIES, and they are naked. Not worth driving back there to get a container of cheese that will be cold before I get home. The phone appears to not work when trying to call them - the phone rings once, then goes to a fast busy. Been like that for more than half an hour. CHECK YOUR ORDER BEFORE YOU LEAVE read more

Very mixed review from me - first time ever eating at any East Coast Wings. I placed an order at the bar, ordered 10 wings total. Decided to run to ladies room while waiting - omg. The ladies room had two stalls. One toilet was 100% clogged, the other had something all over the toilet seat...I did not use the restroom. Waited about 15 minutes for my wings. The overall atmosphere of this restaurant is very low brow, almost a trashy feel? The employee who rang me up was pleasant but the general feel in here was not a good one. The whole place had a dirty, sticky kind of element. Monday is a special on wings, they are $.75 each. I got 5 garlic Parmesan dry and 5 teriyaki garlic ginger dry. Got home with order and it looked to me as though the TGG wings were wet, maybe they can't prepare them dry? I don't know. Wing flavors were good. Just not sure I'd eat from here again - the cleanliness issue really bothered me and the order possibly being wrong (wet wings not dry) was a bummer. Bottom line - there are other places to order wings and/or carry out from that get better reviews and I feel more confident in their cleanliness standards. read more

Wings in the age of corona. Placed an order for 50 various wings online, started driving the 50+ minutes up here (it's the closest to my friend, and we love us some ECW). Found out 30+ minutes in that my card was rejected. Womp. This was _not_ ECW's fault, but it's part of the story. We get there, and we're waiting outside a solid half hour after that point before the wings come out. That's a bit unfortunate, but since my card was the issue, I don't want to to come down hard on ECW. Well, when the wings finally came out, classic ECW. They didn't throw any bonuses in for our trouble - that wasn't expected but perhaps would have been a nice gesture. The blue cheese is not chunky homemade sauce. It's salad dressing. Forgo it, save yourself the trouble. Unfortunately, that cost part of the missing star here. My volcanic bourbon honey mustard wings were epic. They were as hot as I could handle over 15 wings, good to the last bite, amazing sauce. I think I created a new favorite wing sauce, and I've had a lot of wing sauces in my life. The wings are always 5 stars at ECW, no exception here. Someday, I'll be back, the restaurant will be open, the menu will be full (hello dessert), and I can come reevaluate how many stars I want to leave. A strong 4 for now. read more

You know when you walk in a place with in the first few seconds you know. Figured we would give it a chance, this is wings,beer and sports tv type place. Asked for a beer menu, was told to get up and go to the bar and see what they have...strike 1 asked manager if he had any ales, was told I don't think so..strike ,2, came in to see football and have beer, no TVs had sound and the place was pretty empty. Decided to call it and left without ordering. read more

We enjoyed this place before the renovations. I was excited to see they were back and really wanted it to be good. It was NOT. It was so not good and I was so disappointed that I am making this my first review. This was a complete mis-managed mess. There were more employees than diners but they still cited a kitchen backup. We had to ask for EVERYTHING. Utensils, straws, no less than 6 other things that were supposed to be included in our order. Drink refills? 15 mins. Food was cold when we finally got it and not sure what everyone who "works" there was doing to get it all wrong. Never going back unless something changes substantially. Dang! read more

We ordered 50 wings to go. Got home and there was only one tiny container of ranch and one tiny container of blue cheese. There were literally 5 carrot sticks. I called to complain and got no reaction except a lackluster "I'm sorry." Know before you go. read more

We were quickly seated near entrance. Waitress came quickly to take our order . Noted staff at door were not very busy so they were bouncing a ball and hanging out chatting and laughing at tables next to us. Food came fast and was very tasty. Our waitress was very good. She said it was her first day. Makalla was very good. Restaurant was not busy on a Saturday at 730 pm. Gave 3 star due to food was only slightly warm for as fast as it came out it must have been already cooked and waiting and all the staff hanging out at by the front desk next to our table. read more

Food: 4 Service: 5 Ambience: 4 Date/Time: 8/2/2017 2:30pm Order: Wings, Sweet Potato Waffle Fries Crowd: 1 other table taken Had a need for an appetizer midday and saw this place, but was a little hesitant with the rating. After reading a few, it was a consistent "good food but not great service" kind of thing so figuring as long as the food was good, what the heck! Glad we made the stop as the service was excellent with lots of attention and a very friendly server! And, the place was clean and neat looking with plenty of space. And, yes, the food was good! The waffle fries came with a sweet cinnamon-y dipping sauce but with the sweetness in the sweet potatoes, it got a little too sweet dipping it in the sauce. Wings were also tasty and so were the standard fries.. had a crunchy coating. If you're out in the Wake Forest area, give it a try... I thought it was great! read more

All I have to say is don't do it!!!! Stay far far away. Went in for homemade chips and soggy and barely cooked. Ordered Buffalo chicken sticks and then come back to be told we don't carry them. Ordered Buffalo chicken dip and nasty and cold. Not like is used to be. Tortilla chips stale. Hot sauce was like red water no flavor or heat at all. What happened to this place? Oh yeah they are out of salads???? Loews is right next door to buy some! Never again will we give them a try. The best thing about our lunch today was leaving and heading to Sonic!!!! Oh had to update due to us leaving and all Of a sudden the salad tree grew and being served to people. read more

I purchased 2 coupons at $10 each. When I went to use one, they refused to honor it. They also would not refund the money I spent. They wanted to give me a credit. They made an offer ( coupon), I accepted it ( the acceptance) I paid $10 each ( the consideration). Therefore that was a contract - which they would not honor. Will Never go bk to that restaurant. read more

I came here a couple weeks & the experience was below average. Decided I would give it another chance. That was my fault for not learning from the 1st experience. Two other customers & myself. The bartender/waitress/ manager ??? Was the only person on the floor, everyone else in the back area. Spent more time at the doorway to where the others were chatting about whatever, more concerned of other things than the customers in the dining area. Discussing how someone quit Sunday for a better opportunity, now I see why. Than the food which I will say the 1st time was good... this time it seemed it was rushed & thrown together. I will not make the mistake of going back there again. They need an overhaul of new employees & whatever so called management needs to be replaced. No pride in work atmosphere, customer service or even common courtesy... nobody wants to hear about employees issues & gossip while trying to eat their food read more

I really want this place to succeed, because when they are on they are on. The wings are usually good but tonight my wings were the wrong heat index, fried to being the point of inedible and I received no carrots and no dressings which I specifically requested. I ordered door dash and while they usually NEVER EVER get the order just right the quality is good enough to make up for it... not so tonight. Maybe next time they will be on. I just want good consistent accurate food no matter when I order. Tonight was an epic fail. read more

This review is over due. We have been getting takeout wings from here consistently for the past several Mondays. (There's a special for 75¢ each wing on Mondays) Now I don't know if we should keep trying because the food is good but we can definitely understand why they were closed for so long. In the beginning it wasn't bad little issues like no utensils or having to ask for extra sauces. Then we noticed the amount of inconsistency in the food like not enough wing flavor sauce or the fries not having enough cheese and salads having excess water in the take out box. But today is the final straw with a full trifecta of no utensils even tho we got a salad, there was no ranch with our food but thankfully we noticed while we were there and got some before leaving, and there being little to no cheese on the fries. But what truly ruined the whole experience was the Caesar salad that had no dressing on it or on the side, and the 15 extra hot bone-in wings which we paid an extra fee to get flavoring for were unflavored and barely spicy. read more

Was seating for 7 minutes and no came to the table to help. They had 2 servers and they both looked at our table but didn't address they we were even there. So will got up and left. I don't recommend this restaurant. read more

New owner has turned everything around, definitely the best wings in town. Glad to see the business is very reputable.

We only ordered wings, they were good. It seems like you can't really distinguish a difference between some of the different sauces. Ranch and blue cheese are too watered down and they give you a sad amount of celery and carrots for what I spent. read more

I didn't find it that good. I was calling for an hour to place a takeout order and they never answered

Food is always good but it has fell off. I've went there twice in 2 months because the nachos are one of my pregnancy cravings and the bone in outwest ranch wings of course. So I convinced my boyfriend for us to get takeout online. And I went to pick it up, got home I had boneless wings and the tater tots was like a kids size. Which I hate to even make this review because I love their food. But this time it wasn't the best. read more

The food is usually good. But don't order it to go. You'll likely not get all you ordered for a two person meal. Best to eat in.

Would of given this 5 stars because the food was excellent. We came around 7:10pm, hardly anyone in the restaurant. Our waitress took a long time getting us our drinks. And even longer getting us our food. She was quite engaged talking to a guy sitting at the bar. Finally my husband looked at his watch, and then at her. She went in the back and came out with our food. We didn't see her again until we were done with our meal, didn't offer refills till our food was gone. Then she brought the bill and we waited again for her to get that. Be a nice place to eat because the foods good, the service is not. read more

for some reason, the owners of this place are too cheap to fix the stink coming from the drains underneath the bar and they just assume that nobody sits there or eats there because they're the only slow restaurant in this entire town. if somebody doesn't take charge of this place, it's going to be out of business soon. read more

This is our second time here and both times the food and service has been top notch. Ian our young server was very pleasant and attentive. The wings and chicken sandwich were both cooked to perfection. read more

Wow is all I can think or say after eating here. My first visit here was very underwhelming but the last three visits have completely made up for those shortcomings. My first visit it took 5 minutes to be seated and they were not busy and had plenty of staff available. It also took 20 minutes for our waitress to come back and take our order after we received our drinks. YES I GIVE THEM 5 STARS!!!! Even on that first time dining here the food, once I finally got it, was delicious! I had a couple of different flavors wings. I think the dry rub was botched to be honest. Whatever they did, there was way too much rub stuck to the wings. I also ordered some traditional buffalo wings and they came out with a really oily sauce on it and was not very buffalo...ey. now the jamaican jerk flavored wings were really nice and my friend got black and blue wings which were not my cup of tea but still great. Now my other 3 trips to East Coast wings have been spot on. LAKIYA specifically was probably the best waitress I have had just about anywhere. She made sure I had everything I needed 3 times over, not 10 times over because those people become annoying. She completely made up for the first experience just with her service and pleasant attitude. My regular meal has become the cup of buffalo chicken soup and 10 jamaican jerk wings. I get them both "hot" which you have to choose for the best index. The cook botched the heat index last time because my wings, so and brothers super hot wings were not hot at all. But the flavor is still there and it's great. The wings are fair in size, come out piping hot and juicy. The soup is super and had enough chicken that I'm not left wondering if there's even chicken present. You get little boats of celery and carrots and they are never stingy with dipping sauces. 5 stars through and through. Great memorable service I have had more times than not and the food is delicious! I have eaten here probably 4 times in the past month and it's a 40 minute drive from home and is not on my way to work. This is a destination for me and will continue to be! read more

After coming in over a year ago and having a terrible experience, we decided to give it another try but through Doordash. I have to say we were VERY SURPRISED at how good the wings are and how many flavors they have. So good we've ordered 3 times in the last 2 weeks just to try new flavors each time. It is very cool that they allow you to split your wings into 3 different flavors when your order 15. I'm still scared of going into the actual restaurant so I can't give 5 stars but maybe one day we will build up the courage to give their customer service another try. read more

First time there. Food was good. There was no eating in. You ordered your food to go. Employees wore gloves and mask. One entrance in and one entrance out. After the pandemic I think I will go again and try the music on Friday and Saturday nights. read more

I went with the family to East Coast Wings and had a satisfying meal of fried chicken wings and homemade chips. For wings, they have over 50 different flavors and plenty of heat levels to satisfy your taste buds. The restaurant space was also nice, very big with a good size bar and plenty of TVs to watch the games. The staff were also friendly and did a good job taking care of us with refilling drinks and bringing out the food promptly. We started off with a couple baskets of their bottomless chips, which was a good, affordable appetizer to share. The chips were seasoned will, cut in house, and tasty when dipped in ranch or blue cheese. The crunchy chips were the best, and they're quite a few flimsy, soft chips as well. For the wings, we shared 50 bone in traditional wings with bacon ranch, teriyaki ginger, and garlic parmesan. The wings were fried nicely and maintained their crunch even though they were covered in sauce. They were a good size as well and pretty meaty. Overall, the flavors were okay to me; they weren't spectacular but not bad either. The garlic parm was not too garlicky, but had just enough flavor there, and I've definitely had better before. The teriyaki ginger was decent, a nice combination of sweet and salty. The bacon ranch was covered in a ranch wing sauce with real chunks of crunchy bacon, which was a delight to eat. Overall, I'm not too big into eating wings at a restaurant, but East Coast is a good choice if you're looking for decent wings with a plethora of flavors and a good place to watch the game. I might to come back and try Monday nights for $0.65 wings. read more
