Our server was amazing. It's nice little spot to go to in McDonough to listen to music and just hang out. Our server was working the floor and the bar at the same time and was really amazing. The food was ok but my margarita was really good. read more

Took almost an hour to get our food with no explanation from the server. She was nice, but the wait was entirely too long. We had whole wings which were pretty good and a Philly steak sandwich, which according to the menu, is the most popular sandwich on the menu. The sandwich was pretty small and while not horrible, was definitely not tasty. It didn't have much flavor at all. The fries were good though. Main problem was the sandwich but more so, the time it took to get our food. The atmosphere was quite loud. Would not return to this location. read more

Used to be my favorite wings. Lunch special doesn't come with seasoning anymore. Might as well go to whoa wings.. J.R. is now the same quality for double price read more

The food, overpriced but pretty good. The takeout person was polite... the manager... the kind of guy that makes u wonder how and why did he get into the food industry. Nasty attitude, made me not want ever eat there again. Over priced and a bad attitude. Could be a nice place to chill and watch games but apparently when the Braves are playing on every last television in the place, hes not capable to accommodate the customer. read more

they turn the music up so you can't hear the manager/owner talking shit about his customers. If you're ever close enough to the kitchen, he can be heard to say "I can't stand black people" from personal experience I've patronized this establishment and heard word for word this man say that. I don't think he's someone you want to give your money to. read more

We ordered a 20 piece whole wing and a catfish wrap. We got the 20 piece wing but somehow ended up with a fish sandwich instead of a wrap, but I was okay with. HoWEVEr!! the fish on the sandwich is NOT catfish and the sandwich taste bland with the fish being full of oil and no taste at all. read more

The wings are ! All their food is good and the drinks are too! Make sure you know the price of the drinks bc top shelf can get a little pricey read more

It sucks to see the reviews so low especially since the food is so good. I get wings and fries each and every time with no issues. Also the fried shrimp is very tasty! Ive usually ordered on doordash but the one time I came in service was good. Its not that stylish inside but good enough to dine in. read more

I used to think they had the best wings as they are seasoned very well. Nowadays, the wings are getting worse every time I order from this establishment. They appear to be cooked, sat in a warmer than re-cook when orders are received and extremely dried out. The give you more drum instead of balancing out the order. The food is not hot but yet Lukewarm. I will be looking for somewhere to go for wings as they cost too much to not be satisfying. read more

The service was great. The wings were delicious and piping hot. If there's anything that would've added to the culinary experience would have been some potato wedges or some hot potato chips to go with the wings. But, overall, great food and our server was also great. read more

I love this place. The wings fried and baked are my favorite, plus the Quesadillas. Music plays over the speakers and Iove the vibe. Nice chill spot. I understand this restaurant is not looked at as a 5 star restaurant, and it's definitely not a 1 star. My service here is always great. So it's a 5 in my eyes. Check this place out. Great food and drinks. read more

I was hung up three times to make a pick up order. The chicken I received was old and dried out, after inquiring; I was told with that it was my fault the wings were dried out. I thought to read some yelp reviews I see its their theme. Go to Three Dollar Cafe instead. read more

On May 14, 2025 at 7 PM I placed an order for six piece lemon pepper wings. The order was paid for at 7:34 PM; the chicken was inedible. It was dried to a crisp. I was told I wasn't due a refund because the chicken sat for 1 hour. When receipts were produced the representative stuck with "it took you an hour to pick up, that's why I can't give you a refund."NEVER to return, sadly as this was a go to for my household at least 3 times a month. Heading to three dollar cafe. read more

Great customer service and quick with orders and accuracy. Thankful to have a staple live up to the name and hype

Not a fan heard great things but the day I went they said was a bad day. And it was so bad I wanna call my bank to dispute I ate 2-3 wings out of a 10 piece order and they not cheap. I don't recommend unless you know when their good days are but if it's your first time didn't DO IT. read more

Service was very friendly, onion rings and Philly sandwiches were delicious! Wings were fantastic, only criticism is their hottest sauce should be more spicy. read more

Used to enjoy coming to eat here with friends after work for a quick bite and drink. The wings are great and the service was good. However on my last two visits I witnessed the manager get into an altercation with an employee and last week was very rude to our party when correcting our overcharge. read more

Had the wings and cheese sticks. Both very good. Service was quick. If you hate loud music, then don't come here. I don't have an issue with it. I know some don't like it. So please don't come here if you are going to give them a bad rating cause if loud music...at a bar... read more

I frequented this place while I lived in Henry Co. The food and drinks were always good. Great wings, chicken tenders, sweet potato fries and shrimp. The drinks (cocktails) are good as well. The only complaint I have about this place is the service. At times, the staff wasn't very friendly at all. Try also charge surcharges for everything... even for takeout orders. It also isn't in the best location and was very difficult to get in and out during high traffic times. read more

I used to be a faithful customer to this establishment. They used to be fun and inviting, but somehow they turned dull and unwelcoming. The Owner/manager Carl, I believe is his name is a complete JERK. I've witnessed him arguing with customers on several occasions, and instead of him trying to resolve issues he reassures them that he doesn't need nor care about them supporting his establishment. I've also witnessed him being very rude and unprofessional to his waitresses. Which probably why with the exception of 2 you NEVER see the same waitress if you do decide to return. However the waitresses are not exempt either because once they take your order they forget you're there. They often bring you incorrect orders I'm guessing because the music in the establishment is soooooo loud that it's hard to hear anything and they read your order back but STILL somehow manage bring you the wrong food but charge you an up charge for dining in. The wings have become dry and the fries are often cold. And you pay for extras sauces but they act like they have to come and get them from a secret store because it's always a hassle to get some. I'm really disappointed because this used to be one of my favorite places to hang out. Not anymore. I believe the ONLY reason the place is still open is because on a good day the do serve decent wings and because of the JR Cricket name alone because it sure isn't for the customer service read more

Called in an order and SPECIFICALLY ordered NO ONIONS on a philly sandwich. Guess what was on the sandwich? Onions!! I guess it's too much work to follow orders. Had 2 -10 piece wing orders and they were just average. Not happy campers here!!! read more

Food: We weren't terribly hungry so we split a 15pc and some fries. The wings were Sanchez, Dirty Bird, and lemon pepper. They were crispy and flavorful. They are not large wings, but I am ok with that completely. The fries were crinkle cut fries and were perfectly cooked. We went on a Mon. , which also offered $5 dollar cocktails(they were good). Customer service: We were welcomed in and sat down where we wanted to sit. She was very friendly and came around enough. So I was fine with the customer service. She took the time to explain flavors and made sure cocktails were fixed in a timely fashion. It wasnt busy. Info and suggestions: some people dont realize you can come in and sit where you want so they really need a sign that says that. They lost about 3 families that were just standing inside the door due to that. They weren't greeted or even told they could sit anywhere. We watched them and felt awkward for them. So that needs to be worked on. Especially for a new business trying to gain customers. It wasn't busy enough for anyone to be ignored. The bartender saw them and stared and looked away...bad business. As for music I liked the rap/pop, but everyone won't, but that's no different than going to a bar that plays blues/country music, some will like it some won't. Put it on a station that plays a mix or not who cares?!?!...I don't, some will. Will we go back....yep...food and music was good. read more

The wings are dry..... I was literally the ONLY person in the place, the guy who took my order was rude and talked down to me cause I didn't know the menu for the place I've never been in. I asked for the "lemon pepper wet" wings Id heard about, and the old man literally said "those are just for certain people".....so... if you're a hood rat on the far south side who doesn't mind being treated poorly, waiting or dry nasty wings... THIS IS YOUR SPOT read more

Visited this location for the first time . Was happy to find a JR crickets in the area. The vibe was low key for a Friday. The waitress was great . The drinks were good . I gave a 2 star because the food failed flat . The buffalo shrimps were dry and not freshly cooked . The fries were the worst . The most disappointing part was the wings we ordered were dry and had a frozen taste . Spoke to manager and I clearly see why the food failed .hope things get better read more

Wings pretty good but fries terrible bland no taste. They should consider changing fries. Ambiance looks ok to go back for a seating.

Awful customer service. The manager is rude and it took over an hour to get serviced while eating in. The kitchen mixed up my orders which took 1 1/2 to get. read more

Trash food smallest wing's ever food is pre cooked with bad customer service and deceptive practices and overpriced and the hostess was really rude and unprofessional first time trying this restaurant and will definitely be the last. If I could give zero stars I would! Don't waste your money on this establishment. read more

Terrible service, if I can give this place zero Stars I would, the food was terrible. They didn't allow us to sit if we didn't tip. These are greedy individuals and are a poor representation of our culture. Absolutely disgusting food and people work here. read more

I'll get straight to the point. I ordered a 10 piece lemon pepper wing, a 5 piece mild and fries. The wings taste like any other J.R. Crickets, the ones here don't seem to be as "clean" though. They had a good amount of blood, cooked of course, but seeing it just isn't appealing or appetizing, so I ended up throwing a few wings away. The fries were completely inedible. They were stale and didn't have any salt on them. I have no clue what went on with these. I ordered an extra large blue cheese that I paid for, but I was given ranch and everyone knows blue cheese tastes better than ranch when it comes to wings lol. I was pretty mad about this, because I paid $3.59 for it. I went to the Wingstop up the street from me and got a couple of cups of blue cheese AFTER I got home and settled in to eat and realized I was given ranch. Fyi, I'm not a fan of Wingstop's wings, which is why I went 20 mins away for wings instead of 5 mins away If I lived closer I would've brought everything back, but as I said, I live 20 mins away and if you're familiar with the area this J.R. Crickets is located, then you know what a pain it would be coming back. I called 3 times to let them know how dissatisfied I was, but no one answered. I'll probably just stick to the J.R. Crickets in Atlanta whenever I'm in the area read more

I've been to this J.R. Crickets last 3 weekends in a row. The overall ambience have a "feel good" feeling with music playing. So far I've got steak quesadilla and it's probably the best one I've ever had and I've had multiple buys of the Sanchez wings & fries..... perfection with ranch. Highly recommended ! read more

I give it a five star because my experience here was a excellent one and this was my first time here. The food was good no complaints here, and neither did my wife and she is very particular when it comes to food. Our server Chaz did a good job also, even though you could see he was new but he held his own. Only recommendation I have is the choice of music due to the location and mixed crowd that frequent the restaurant. read more

I had high hopes I have been searching for good chicken and every Georgia native swears by JR crickets I got the buffalo tenders the flavor was so good not Tom spicy and the fries great too unfortunately my stomach didn't agree and it didn't settle well. The food handling in the pandemic has been subpar in a lot of places so disappointed. read more

Place is like a Nightclub after 6pm instead of a restaurant. Got small kids and came out into the parking lot from Davinci's pizza and heard nothing but vulgar music blasting on the patio for the entire county to hear. Learn to have some respect of your neighbors and surroundings! read more

Poor service , loud rap music, crated talk fro the waitress and the wings were cold , beer hot

I've been eating J.R. crickets since the original store opened and was excited one was opening a bit closer but every time I call for a to-go order I'm placed on hold for 15 or more minutes and greeted by a rude employee who just says "hey" like they're talking to a friend after being placed on hold for so long. After tonight having waited 35 minutes on hold, I ask to speak to a manager which the employee said the manager or owner wasn't in right now. So i decide to go up there for myself to see if the owner / manager is there who is standing there not doing anything including his other 2 employees (Tara & another employee). Tara is the one who answered the phone and put me on hold. When I walk in I go directly to the manager to tell him what happened, he has every excuse in the world saying they were too busy despite not having a single customer inside and only doing take out as well since dine in is closed during covid 19. I told him how I also run my own business in which he tells me I obviously don't know a business is ran because he was assisting customers and couldn't take my order. 3 people is more than enough to take orders, check out customers, and run orders from the kitchen. I've worked in food service and own/operate my own business now. He tells me he doesn't believe me because his employees come to work every day despite making no tips and him breaking even as well to which I let him know, we'll all of what I just said is why!!!! You have people who don't care about the business and are just collecting a check and an owner who doesn't care enough to put the right people in charge to make sure his business is successful. I will be contacting corporate and notifying them of the horrible service I received from both the employees and operator of this location. read more
