    Jamaican jerk wings Hot honey mustard wings Cheese fries
    Bryce R.

    I actually found this through tik tok and their review was spot on. These were the best wings I've had in BAMA! I ordered a 10 piece with half Jamaican jerk and half Hot Honey Mustard wings with cheese fries on the side. The flavors were amazing! I'm surprised the line isn't lined up down the highway, but they could use some more customer service skills. Other than that if I'm driving through I'll grab some more for sure!

    Hot Honey Lemon Pepper Wings with Cajun Ranch Fries

    My search was over. I had been searching for the best wings throughout the 205 all through out college, little did I know, they'd be off an exit going to Bessemer, Alabama. My Fraternity Brothers had been hinting about J Wings for a while now, I thought since it was a Saturday, and I was heading to B-Ham for a party, I could stop here real quick & grab a bite to eat. You know they're used to plenty of customers because it was about four women working the cash register, taking orders from phone & from people waiting in line. I asked for a Hot Honey Lemon Pepper 6pc and Cajun ranch fries with a coke. The cup that they gave me for my coke was huge, I wouldn't need to be getting up for constant refills, which I appreciated greatly. After a couple of minutes (3-5), the kid that had handed me a coke, got my attention to come get my food. The aroma from the food smelled so pleasant, it was like my senses started doing cardio to get ready for the meal. First I took a bite out of the fries and they were so hot and drenched with their own ranch with Cajun seasoning sprinkled on it. It was extraordinary. I then proceeded to take try one of the flats. The sauce with lemon sprinkles stuck to my hand as I bite into the wing, it was like a rush of divine flavors pouring into my mouth, I've never tasted better wings. If you're on your way to B-Ham or coming from, I would greatly suggest you stopping by. Highly recommend. I'll def be back ... probably too much.

    10 pc with fries and a drink for 9.50

    This place is great. Stopped by after a long day at the water park just 5 min away. Got the 10 piece wings with side and a drink for 9.49 which is a great price! The dry lemon pepper was awesome! The hot sauces was very good also. The fries were very fresh and hot and so where the wings. Got the Cajun ranch fries with cheese OMG. It's a good thing this place is 4 hours from my house....the outside looks like an old Hardee's. It's also a little past the hospital. My GPS has me turning at the hospital took me a min to find it. It's right next to Economy Inn hotel. Don't let the outside fool you! Very good wing spot and great prices. Guy next to me got the catfish. It was huge and looked great. If you are in the area and want wings....no complaints here!

    This is one of my kids favorite spots but I will not come during afternoon hours anymore. I'm assuming they allow high school kids to do Co-Op or something because no one looked over 18 today. I ordered a 6 piece combo & 2 cheeseburger combos. It basically took forever to get my order. A cook had to come out & hug a fellow classmate & focused on her meal & she came after me of course. I had to ask a couple of times how long it was going to be! I have never waited this long on a busy Friday or Saturday night. Then another customer was asking the cashier about one of flavors & she hunched her shoulders & said "I don't know!" Now My IG is loading with pics from us at this place & the food was good as usual, although I asked for no tomato or onion, but customer service should be handled better.

    Awesome service even on a busy Friday evening. The wings were great, catfish platter was more than enough and the fried okra was perfect. But the absolute best thing was that LEMONADE!!

    Wings were good. The only real complaint was they put 30 wings in one container could have used two. But that's not a big deal.

    We visited this great spot in the gorgeous Ross Bridge neighborhood to try something new for my…read moreson's birthday meal. Because of the intense Alabama heat, we chose to sit inside, though they have a really nice screened-in patio available. The restaurant is intimate but well laid out, featuring a couple of distinct dining areas and a bar. Since it was our first time, our server, Daniella, recommended the candied bacon bombs to start. They came with a side of cheese curds, and both were absolutely delicious. Even as small as the curds were, they had a perfect cheese pull! For our mains, I ordered the cowboy burger with an added egg and a side of sweet potato fries, while my son chose the shrimp and grits. My burger was incredible, a solid 9.5 out of 10. My son rated his shrimp and grits a 7, though he has a lot of experience with that dish to compare it to. Daniella provided fantastic service, checking in at just the right times without hovering. I later realized I forgot to ask if they do anything special for birthdays, but honestly, my son was probably glad I forgot! Overall, it was a great meal, excellent service, and a very cool environment.

Cheese with turnip greens and smoked sausage. Yum! The candied bacon bombs were delicious too. The appetizers were enough to get me full but to go I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap and my friend ordered the blackened chicken pasta. She said it was tasty but it needed more sauce. Overall this place was a 10/10. Lively with great staff really makes this place a gem. I will definitely be back.

We walked up the street with a half dozen other diners. Wooden City is definitely not in the best part of BHM. Walking to the restaurant was a little sketchy, no need for a detailed description. Although we had reservations, the hostess looked at us like we had three eyes. She found a small table for us in the far back of the restaurant. No problem, at least we were seated. Our server greeted us quickly and went over the menu. We ordered drinks, blistered Hungarian peppers and a sausage and mushroom pizza. We told him that we were going to a concert and were on a little bit of a tight schedule. By the time our server checked on our food, the second time, we went from a little bit tight to full "gotta get out of here" mode. I guess the delay in getting our food was to give the kitchen time to burn our pizza. Over half of the thick, chewy crust was inedible. The bottom of the pie didn't fare much better. The peppers, on the other hand, were amazing. (not so much so at 2 am but that's just me!) They are a do not miss. We were at least able to settle our bill quickly and made it to the concert with time to spare. Overall, would we go back? Only if in the area - those peppers were amazing. Still, I definitely would not make a special trip.

We were seated fairly quick and provided with menus including a summer cocktail menu. I got a peach martini which was fabulous. Hubby ordered a banana breeze cocktail but they were out of banana liquor. He was bummed. Instead he got the strawberry Long Island iced tea. I tasted it and it was really good. We ordered our entrees which came with a salad or gumbo. I got the gumbo. It was sooo good. I enjoyed every bite. For my entree I got the Texas special which has the Greek steak, chicken and the seafood au gratin. All of it was delicious. I loved everything. Highly recommend especially if you want to try a little of everything. Of course, we had to get dessert. I had to try the baklava cheesecake since that seemed to be popular. Hubby got the chocolate almond pie. Hubby's was really really good. Mine was interesting for sure. Hubby tried it and said it tasted like pumpkin and he was right! Normally I love pumpkin but I didn't love this. It was okay. I just wouldn't get it again. Service was great. Lots of people coming around refilling drinks, bringing food, taking away plates, etc. we will be back for sure!
