I've been here three times and I loved it. But, after tonight's experience I will not return. A customer walked out and did not pay their bill. The manager let the waitress know that she had to pay the bill (WHICH IS ILLEGAL IN NORTH CAROLINA). The manager and multiple employees were fighting in the middle of the restaurant. They had my credit card, so I couldn't leave. Very hostile environment. I've never seen this level of unprofessionalism while dining out. The entire vibe of the restaurant was very uncomfortable from start to finish. read more

East Coast Wings + Grill - North Carolina FLSA law - Chicken Wings Near Me - Kinston, North Carolina

I ordered wings with the maximum heat and bang bang sauce. However, when my wings came out there was no sauce on them. I was told that would be $1 extra. First of all, the wings were terrible and small. It didn't matter if there was sauce or not. Never again. read more

Pretty good food! There are so many wings sauces available and the menu is broad. Would recommend!

Don't eat there, the service, the food and the bartender, all SUCKS!!! Don't ever want to eat in that place

I wish I could give ECW less than one star because they DONT EVEN DESERVE THAT! I ordered from ECW through DoorDash on May 6th, and when I got my chicken it was UNDERDONE & a few pieces had feathers. I called ECW & told them and they offered to replace my food only if I were willing to cone back, which I explained that I could not because I was in quarantine. The manager went on to explain that I'd only be getting a refund if I bought the food back. Very dissatisfied. I will never be spending money at this establishment EVER again. read more

East Coast Wings + Grill - Buffalo chicken wrap with sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes and cheese, a side of fries and ranch sauce - Chicken Wings Near Me - Kinston, North Carolina

I'm at this location because I'm visiting Kinston. I saw the sign of this familiar chain and decided to go get my favorite lemon pepper wings. I'm sad to say this location does not represent this chain very well. First off, I ordered over the phone and was told I would pay extra for all flats. No thank you Ma'am. Secondly, I greeted the greeter as I entered. ... Why wouldn't she have greeted me?...I asked for my take out order and gave her my name. The greeter turned to the waitress and said "This lady said she ordered something ".., As the waitress finished chewing whatever was in her mouth, she told me my total. (Like seriously at the same time) I paid and left. To top off the less than desirable service, the chicken wings were dry and freezer burned. I could barely taste any lemon pepper flavor at all. $11 wasted. Very disappointed with this location. read more

East Coast Wings + Grill - Chicken Wings Near Me - Kinston, North Carolina

I'm giving this restaurant two stars only because the food was good, but the customer service sucks. For that reason, I won't be ordering from them, nor would I recommend it to anyone else. They left something off my order, which I had paid for, when I called, the lady who answered the phone said she'd be more than happy to help, but to please call back as they were swamped, which I did. The second time I called, I got a different person who told me there was nothing they could do about it since I ordered through Door Dash. I paid Door Dash to pick the order up, I paid ECW for the food?! It won't happen again read more

Today I came to ECW and there is the poor young lady being hostess, bartender, waitress, and doing DoorDash orders all by herself. I can't remember how long I've been here but my lunch break is long over. I do not in anyway blame this worker who is running herself to death. She will get a great tip but ECW will not get a good review. You would think they would have people working between 12:00 and 1:00. read more

This place gets such a bad wrap because they are always shorthanded with staff. The people who actually do come to work are excellent and hard workers. The food has been excellent every single time we have dined in. We go a lot and for about a year straight we went once a week. We have had the wings, salads, burgers, fries, onion rings, drinks, beer, philly and so many other things to eat here and have never had an issue with anything except one take out dessert order one time. They didn't cook the cookie quite enough but I told them the next time we went in and I got one free and I enjoyed it dine in that time. They always have the TV's on because I guess it could be considered a sports bar. The beer is always cold and our trick is we always sit at the bar but we have sat at a table before when it was more than the two of us. We love going here! read more

I had my birthday party here. 12 people. Waitress did great. Food was good! Thanks for the good service! read more

Just gone go ahead and put it out there, if you coming here for anything other than wangz; 1. you're an idiot (like me) 2. change your damn mind and get get wangz. Me and my crew been coming here for ages, when I get wings and fries, Boy highty I have a damn good time. When I got a salad this past time, I didn't have a good time. I usually tend to enjoy this East Coast Wings, but not today. Unfortunately our pregnant portion of the party of 4, got a cup of chili, and she was unable to eat more than a couple bites. Afterwards she vomitted from here to New Bern. Ended up dehydrated and had to get hooked up to an IV. Regardless, I know i'll be back for some more of those infamous East Coast Wangz. Pro-Tip, Do not try the insanity wing, you will very seriously contemplate suicide for the two hours following your attempt. 3 outta 5 I'd go again read more

So I am not a wings person, so I cannot review their wings. However, I can give a review for the salads, burgers and sweet potato fries. I do not eat fast food, so when I am on this side of town I will stop in ECWG. I like the burgers since I can build my own. Quite worth it to get it how you want it! Sweet potato fries and salads are also very good in my book. Service has gotten better. About a 6 months to a year ago, the service was not very good. But there is a new wait staff, and they seem to be doing better. My daughter was admitted at the hospital just down the road, and the hospital food was not to her liking. So I was making daily phone orders to pick up from ECWG, and we were both pleased. read more

Good place for a beer. Medium size place and variety menu with lots of wing choices. Food and prices are just okay. read more

Ordered from here with DoorDash and each time dissatisfied. Either it's no seasoning or OVER SEASONED Food and greasy as hell ,

I have come here on an almost weekly basis until today. This location has lost any waitresses who can remember your order or work technology from this century. Today's visit consisted of our waitress forgetting our appetizer, bringing us the wrong order, not knowing how to use the system, not knowing the menu to the level of needing us to point to the items on the menu to order them, and then charging us for the "free" wing flavoring, which i asked specifically if the first flavor was in the cost. Not only did we have this waitress who did not know what she was doing but her manager backed her every step. He claimed the wrong sauce they used was correct and that we were the ones who were wrong since he "stood by the cook" as he made it. we ordered a sweet mango sauce (which my wife has ordered for the past year and a half) and it was only spicy while slightly bitter, not a chance we were wrong. and then he was very rude acting like he was doing us a huge favor comping the flavorings even though his staff told us it was included. We have spent at least $50 dollars here a visit and always left at least a 20% tip to his wait staff. Due to being treated this way by this manager we will be visiting other establishments. I would suggest you do the same or visit the one in Greenville. this place has really gone down hill with their management practices of "the customer is always wrong" P.S. While we were there we had another table refuse to pay their bill due to the service and leave and another giving us the your "having issues too with your service" talk as our waitress kept disappearing and being oblivious to the needs of any of her tables. Also for anyone thinking she was in training she has worked there for months. read more

Great food. Great Service. The Hawaiian Tacos are awesome. I don't even bother to look at any other menu items Loved the homeade chips. Waitress was awesome--good server, good personality. Thanks for a very pleasant experience. read more

I came here with a large group two nights in a row. In summary, their wings are really good. I like my wings crispy and that's the way they serve them. Furthermore, they have a large selection of tasty wing flavors. They allow you to split your wing order into different flavors, as well as, between bone in and boneless wings. The staff is friendly, helpful, and works hard to make it a good dining experience. read more

Buffalo chicken sandwich was dry and over cooked. Service was fair to poor. Fries are awesome, boneless wings were cold, regular wings were average. Sauces were NOT nearly spicy enough. 12 or so levels of heat and 75 flavor add ons (which they charge you for) are confusing, complicated, and not really that flavorful. Did I mention that the fries were awesome................everything else was bland, dry and overcooked with poor service from pretty, college girl type inattentive waitresses. read more

Horrible Service! Don't stop in, just keep driving. I saw 2 tables walk out. My order was wrong. My wife had to continually ask for her sauces. I've been here several times and the service continues to get worse. The owners need to do something!!!! read more

Bad service. Waiter took our orders. Then once they arrived we asked for ranch dressing she said no problem... 10 minutes later she's at the bar having a conversation with her co-workers. Completely forgetting her customers. Food was mediocre but wouldn't not dine their again. read more

Food is excellent and you have a wide variety. Servers are friendly and attentive.

Wings are good. Service is generally horrible and the place simply smells dirty. Could be a great restaurant with the right help/management. I have been here many times in hopes things would change. I give up. read more

I'd say average. It's not BW-3 good, but satisfactory. Service is middling. The fries are hit-or-miss, either very good, or reheated. I usually get the ribs, because the wings are only so-so. We go here because it's closer to us than the Greenville BW-3. It's good in a pinch. The last time there, the menu had some additional items, the one we tried was the pretzel bites, and THEY were VERY good. The problem is with inconsistency, both in food and service. It's either above average or below or worse. Not many options in Kinston, but as I said, it will do in a pinch. You can watch the game there, that is the best option of all. read more

It's always nice to welcome a chain restaurant to the area, as Kinston is all too lacking in well-known eateries. I'd definitely recommend this restaurant if you're looking to enjoy a few wings while watching a game. It's not your big-city Buffalo Wild Wings, but it'll do. ;-) read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE!!. Every time we make a trip to Kinston we make sure to stop in and grab some of their delicious wings and burgers! Also can't forget about the wonder waitress we met named Kendra! Would highly recommend this to anyone! read more

Low on staff , drinks are less than favorable , would be the last place I eat in kinston !!!

I absolutely love East Coast Wings. This was the biggest foodie disappointment in a very long time, maybe since ever. When we were first sat down, we were the only actually table sitting down to eat. There were several people at the bar hanging out. By the time we left 3 other tables had become occupied. The first 30 minutes of this visit we were alone with at least 4 servers, yet went without drink for nearly ten minutes and ran out again by the time another table of 2 arrived. By the end of the meal every server had checked on us at least once which you think would do the trick, but it seemed to be a trick all it's own - can I get you anything else? Napkins would be good.... Two more within 2 minutes - we're just waiting on Napkins. Eh Eff the Napkins, we'll use our pant legs. It's like they saw someone else check on you, so they'd do it for S's & G's. This place may be newer looking, it may be standalone with a nice parking lot, but I will eat crackers and drink water for a month before returning to this festering hell of service. read more

given this place a try more than once and never very impressed. The last time was last straw, all the food we tried was over cooked, it seemed to me maybe leftover food that they reheated. Only one experience out of 4 times was decent. Will not be returning. read more

The past 2 times we have been the service has declined. Today, there were no straws (they were out), we received no napkins or silverware until requested, and the bottomless chips took forever to get. Once we got the chips and the plates, we started to hand out the plates to each person at the table. The second plate had gobs of ranch dressing and wings sauce on it!!! It was disgusting and the waitress didn't even apologize!!! She simply took the nasty plates and walked away! Wings were over cooked, menu was misleading and I substituted chili for fries and was charged full price. Atmosphere was dull. The table next to us apparently had complaints as well because when we were being seated the manager was going to their table as well. Only the chili charge was deducted from our bill for our inconvenience. As we left and we were heading to our car, another customer that had just ate there with his family approached us and asked if the bad service was characteristic because he received it as well, and we told him we would likely not be coming back. He said the same. Such a shame. read more
