I thought the wings were really good because they were very meaty and cooked to crispy perfection. I got two flavors consisting of lemon pepper and hot garlic. The hot garlic did not taste like garlic at all and I believe they have mixed up the sauce with a different one as it was pretty sour. The drink we ordered was initially the incorrect one too but that was fixed right away. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kind of a hole in the wall type of look and no seating so just be sure to be getting your wings to-go.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The service was amazing and we got to chat with the owners for a bit before our order was ready! They're so friendly and kind! Then we took the food home and it was 10/10!! Highly recommend the rice and beans, plantains, and most of all the garlic hot and jerk chicken wings! The wings were juicy and big with loads of flavor! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Loved the little restaurant pickup window and mural outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall this is a must eat at restaurant in Denver! read more

We adore this restaurant. Their food is UNMATCHED in Denver when it comes to quality and price. Definitely worth the drive from Denver, which is only about 20 minutes. From the wings to sandwiches, we are never disappointed and have been back several times. The staff is SO kind and seem passionate about what they're doing. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a counter order kind of place, but there's a cute neighborhood and a public library right next door if you want to wander while you wait![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They bring the food right outside to your car, which is very convenient. If you're craving BBQ, something spicy, or just a DELICIOUS meal, you have to try out Genna Rae's. read more

Those were some of the smallest wings I've ever had. I'm a small person and after finishing the 6 wings I was still hungry. There was no celery/carrots, etc. I was sadly disappointed in a shop that specializes in wings. At $2/each, not a good value. read more

OMG!! This business !!! From my first phone call to my last contact I have been so impressed and satisfied. I am from Chicago and was planning a family event in Denver. Genna Rae's was recommended by my cousins in Denver for their great wings . So I called and placed my order with the most pleasant and helpful Ms KK . Then when another caterer fell thru at the last minute I. Called and spoke with Ms KK again and sher said " absolutely" we can help . Let me tell you ... the Wings, greens, red/beans with rice, cat fish nuggets and yams were talked about with glee by my family the whole weekend . Best service and food I have eaten . One of my cousins said he couldn't stop after eating the barbecue wings . He had to lick his fingers. Thanks Ms KK and her husband " the cook" I highly recommend this business!! read more

There is no way that this is not a 5 star food joint in the triple D category. I got a burger and wings from here and they just knocked it out of the park. The burger was easily a half pound and was certainly one of the best burgers I've ever had from food joint. The wings were good. Great BBQ on them. I was slightly concerned they were a little undercooked, but it turned out just fine! The place is just not what you would expect. There's 0 seating. The building is barely larger than a food truck and it seems like it's a meh area of town. The cashier, whom I'm assuming might own or co-own was very delightful. We ended up waiting about an hour for all of us to get our food due to our group size, but he sent a bunch of extra wings. Overall I could have eaten a burger from here every day and been happier than a clam while we stayed there. Highly recommend it. read more

There's a lot of places that have amazing and friendly service but you leave disappointed because the food was just okay... THIS IS NOT THAT PLACE! My first time I walked out I felt like family and found myself coming back needing to try the entire menu! Catfish, seasoned and cooked perfectly! Oxtail... I don't like Oxtail and went back the next day to get more! Mac n cheese was super creamy and went perfectly with the greens! Cake, super moist and amazing flavor without the stomachache after! Banana pudding, probably the best I've ever had! I've stopped by 3-4 times just for this. If you've never been, stop thinking and go! It doesn't look like much but I'm 100% willing to bet you'll be instantly hooked and back soon for more! read more

Soul food- omg! We were craving wings and this was the perfect spot. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Note they are take out only- there's a picnic bench outside but not a ton of options -so best to prep for a picnic if you don't live close.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I tried wings, catfish, greens and Mac and cheese. The Mac and cheese was just ok. The wings are definitely the star- must eat! I was licking my fingers. read more

Lord have mercy. After one visit, I have seen the light! I sure do miss Southern comfort food. Living in Colorado, we don't have too many places doing it the right way. I just had my mind blown after eating at Genna Rae Wings. I truly did not expect the food to be this good. Everything was lights out! Things to note: + This is a takeout only establishment. + Food is made to order, so it'll take 15-20 minutes. + There's one picnic table in between the restaurant and the library. + They're known for wings (obviously) and Southern specialties. + The price point is fair for the amount of food you get. + Odds are you'll end up in a food coma, so don't make plans after. + The food is really damn good!! Genna Rae's is a wonderful black-owned establishment in the Whittier neighborhood. This is a prime example of "don't judge a book by its cover." Because from the outside, it's nothing special to look at. But I promise you the quality of food you'll receive is spectacular. I ordered a platter, which you can select two proteins and two sides. They even throw in a slice of bread and extra sauces for you. $20 well spent if you ask me. The employee couldn't even close the box of food it was piled so high. Now this is my type of place! + Hot Garlic Wings // Meaty, tender and drenched in spicy hot sauce. Oh, the garlic. SO MUCH GARLIC. Music to my ears. These wings were real deal, legitimately spicy. My new favorite hot wings in Denver. + Fried Catfish // CRUNCH-A-LICIOUS. I neglected the tartar sauce and dipped the crispy, flaky catfish in straight hot sauce. Let me tell you what, I was transported to the South. Absolute heaven. + Mac & Cheese // Some of the creamiest, butteriest, most decadent mac & cheese I've had in a hot sec. I couldn't put the fork down. I'm not being facetious, I LITERALLY could not put down the fork. Absolutely delicious. + Collard Greens // Exactly what I needed from greens. I'm a greens-eating fool. It was nice to have a balance from all the rich and full blown flavors I was experiencing from the other items. Genna Rae Wings is churning out outstanding Southern comfort food. This is a black-owned business you need to support YESTERDAY. Get down here and get you some truly amazing food! read more

Hands down best wings in Denver, the sandwiches are also amazing and flavorful. Genn, the owner is amazing and treats you like family. Best sauces in my opinion, habanero mango pineapple, honey hot, honey barbecue. The homemade jerk sauce is also the best jerk sauce I've ever tasted. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a neighborhood staple for a reason, consistent quality and great local ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Really good food everything looks very tried has been fire. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great service and ambiance as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommended. read more

We live close by to Miss Genna Rae's and we are so lucky! A very small kitchen with no seating inside, this place serves up fabulous soul food bringing some much needed flavor to Denver! We ordered the cheeseburger, catfish, sweet potato fries and Mac and cheese and greens. Everyone at the table was silent- which you know it means it was incredible. That cheeseburger with the toasted bun is FABULOUS. Cooked to perfection, old school cheeseburger vibes! The CATFISH, though! Wow! Best catfish on Denver! Go to this place and enjoy the incredible food. The staff are really cool. This is a hidden gem! read more

Best hamberger in Town is the " Big poppa" you can't eat a hole one. Call in ahead of time.

Great food and friendly service. I love the size of the portions and they serve the jumbo wings not those tiny ones. I'm a regular customer

Ah good tasty wings made to order. They were hot fresh, cooked to perfection and definitely worth the wait. It has been a long since I had good wings that the skin.and.meat were cooked perfectly and I was able to.eat both. The seasonings are applied with expertise. They will be added to my " regular" list. The service is consistent and they are attentive. They food was made to order with no mistakes. read more

Best wings in Denver & I'm from Texas...this spot speaks for its self with that flavor!

I will never give my money to this establishment ever again. Thank you for having absolutely no integrity regarding my order, and I spent over $100, and did not receive my food. Would give a zero review if I could. read more

Great service, food was really good, but the peach cobbler was not good unfortunately. Sometimes having a lot of items on the menu does not guarantee quality dishes. But I think I'll try one of the cakes next. I ordered: 8pc wing with a side of greens (amazing) and a side of sweet potatoes (also amazing) Catfish with mac n cheese (delicious) and plantain (also delicious) read more

Great wings! Island zest seasoning was my favorite. The staff were very friendly and helpful despite the crazy crowds during the Super Bowl. I had to wait a long time (45 min) for my pre-order pickup but understandable due to the popularity on Super Bowl Sunday. My rating today is based on the staff and food, not the wait time. I'll have to return on a less busy day for a to-go order. There isn't really an area to sit, but the parks nearby would be cute to sit at for a picnic. read more

Oh my goodness this little gem has the best burger ever..I can't believe they have been in business for 8 years and this is our first time experiencing them! Ok..so great burger, wings and peach cobbler.. take out only which is ok for us..parking on the street is fine.. its right on the alley between Williams and high on 28th..north side of the street..they do have one picnic table outside! Really sweet people and Dawn was great! You won't be disappointed..oh I forgot we had the big papa burger with no pickles and it feeds 4 easy or better be real hungry lol! So delicious read more

KK/Kawanta was super cute! Amazing attitude and service. Her vibe makes me want to come back, excited to try this food when I get home!!

Some of the best wings and collards I've had in Denver. Ordered when I was stuck on bed rest and they hit every craving I had.

I genna rae a shot a few years ago and they are always substituting out your order or forgetting items altogether. Stopped coming for awhile. Ordered twice last week and they did phenomenal. I thought maybe a diff chef and I'll put them in my rotation again. Tried again today, more missing items and subbed out food. Shame. Really want to support you guys. read more

The food is good but they can't get the food out in a timely fashion. I waited more than half an hour for chicken tenders. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Mind you, there's no seating. I was just standing around on the sidewalk for 35 minutes waiting for chicken tenders.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Follow up: after 45 minutes I still hadn't received my order and simply had to leave without ever getting my food because I had to be somewhere. read more

I'm glad I was in the area and got to try this place. I would say it's a to-go service-style restaurant as they have no seating area or tables outside. I would recommend ordering your food beforehand. I waited 15 minutes to place my order and another 30 minutes to get it, which was okay. I was in no rush. I got the two-meat meal with six wings and catfish, with greens and mac & cheese. Overall, everything was good. The catfish was delicious. The wings were great. I ordered the raspberry mango habanero sauce. I wish they were a little more spicy, but great flavor . The greens and mac & cheese were good but not great. To sum it up, the staff was friendly, and the food was great. I recommend stopping in to check this place out if you are in the area. read more

3.5 stars for Genna Rae Wings & More. While customer service and hospitality were great, it didn't quite match the taste of the food. I personally only ordered Mac and cheese and candied yams, and was slightly disappointed. Sides are $4.50 here -- cool, not a problem. Sizes were okay for the price but it's Black owned, so I didn't mind. When we got back to our Airbnb and tasted the food, the Mac and cheese was pretty good -- nothing special, but I love Mac and cheese so it was good enough to satisfy the craving. The yams were subpar. While they were cooked to perfection, they definitely weren't what I expected. Just yams and sugar water here, nothing to scream about. I barely ate half and was disappointed that I wasted $5. My friend ordered the catfish plate with a side of greens, Mac and cheese, and yams. We had similar opinions about the yams and Mac and cheese (she didn't finish her yams either), but I was disappointed at her review of the catfish: fish was okay, but there was too much bread. She took one bite of her peach cobbler and that was it, which she was really bummed about because that's why we went in the first place. Overall she wasn't impressed either. Great customer service at Genna Rae Wings & More, but that's all I can say. I see reviews about the wings -- maybe that's what we should've tried. read more

I used to swear by fire on the mountain but then I had Genna Rae Wings! Some of the biggest and most delicious chicken wings I have had in Denver! It's a small and locally owned shop with some of the best customer service! Next time you need wings- go for Genna Rae's! You will NOT be disappointed! read more

The food was awesome! Big portions and honestly worth the money! I got a double cheeseburger with some fries and when I tell you that burger was perfectly seasoned and the fries were great aswell! The double cheeseburger was big enough for me and my husband to eat and to get full! Totally gonna run through their whole menu for the rest of the month! I wish pictures could do them some justice but seriously folks try them out! read more

What a huge disappointment this place was. Wings were SEVERELY overcooked! Left in the fryer wwwaaayyy too long. Biting through the bread king to the meat took almost as hard a bite as you can muster. Breading was harsh, tough, yet also rubbery. The meat within was somewhat juicy, but would have been much more so had the proper cook time been executed. Veggie burger was decent. A- to B+ range. It was a good size. Have had better and had worse. Service. Mixed. Upon entering, two men were at the counter. As soon as I announced I was there to try them out, they both disappeared for at least 5 minutes - no one manning the front/register. When one of them came back to register, he profusely apologized, which is definitely appreciated yet the scenario was weird. Wings were in D range, not even a C mediocre rating. Enormous disappointment given the raves in other reviews. They assuredly did *not* get my wings right, not even in the same galaxy. It's really surprising how low the bar Denver natives set for food in the area. Yet another mom & pop local place which Denverites rave about, but which would have trouble keeping their doors open in other major cities. I tried this place out, with the idea of my sibling trying it next time they visit Den. No way. read more

Picked up dinner here last night and was super happy! I had the Raspberry Mango Habanero wings (SO flavorful!) and my boyfriend had the fried chicken sandwich which was HUGE and he loved! We shared a side of macaroni and cheese which was amazing! Super rich. I think it's my boyfriends new favorite Mac and cheese. The food was hot even though it was takeout and we are definitely going back. read more

Came here after trying to eat at the last restaurant and it seemed decent a little pricey but sounded good. Waited 30 minutes food was cold and then we found a piece of glass in the beans which were ice cold ! Apparently the owner said it was from the food processor? Moral of the story even without that the food was about a 6 overall I got the catfish and wings honey hot sauce was like the sauce for wontons... I should have stuck to Nola Jane. read more

This was the best food I got while being in Denver honestly and I'm glad I got it last because I just would've been disappointed by everything else to follow. The wings were flavorful ! The plantains were juicy ! And the Texas toast was toasted perfectly. The only thing I can not vouch for is that macaroni because it taste like the instant Kraft macaroni. Service was quick and easy. Please don't count them out based on their brick and mortar looks, this food was delicious read more

Amaaaaaazing... I've tried all of the wings and you really can't go wrong with any of the flavors!

Tried to order thru Grubhub. Order confirmed then it cancelled. Called Genna Rae and they said to try Doordash. That worked but Mac n cheese doesnt show on doordash menu! Called again. They were SO accommodating with friendly service. I was ordering from CA to my sons family and they said it was delicious! Cant wait for my next trip to Denver to try for myself. read more

Where do I begin? 5 stars is not enough...they need 10+! The food was beyond amazing, we had wings, fries, a bacon cheeseburger, sweet potato salad, mac n cheese and Pound cake and EVERYTHING was delicious. The exceptional service we received from "Dawn" at the front counter just put the visit over the top. This was the best part of our trip to Denver, and we drove over an hour in the rain to get here. Definitely worth the trip! read more

Delicious! Quick prep and very kind folks. Will def be back! Even my kids loved the food! read more
