Man what a hidden little gem. Its a small place with no parking, good luck trying to find any but thats city life right haha. But this place has enough seating surprising to accommodate a few small parties. Lots of options of snack foods to try. The Philly cheese steak was great and the wings were flawless. I truly enjoyed the food so no complaints there. If I'm in the area I would try more options or order the samethings again. read more

This is my favorite wing place in the city. The only thing I love more than the wings are the fries. That said, they have recently switched their fries from the hand cut to those battered "crispy" fries that everyone else has and they are the worst. Please bring back the hand cut fries. I hope it's just a supply chain thing. read more

Where Tradition Meets Flavor. My boyfriend, who is a California native, moved to Texas 7 yrs ago. He has always mentioned that through his child hood, Original Buffalo Wings was a family favorite. So of course, we had to stop by during our visit to SF, and I now see why this spot has been around since the late 1980s-- the food is genuinely good. The buffalo sauce is classically... buffalo... but better haha. It's also amazing that the sauce seems to go with everything. It's perfectly spicy and tangy without being overpowering. By recommendation, We even ordered a side of it for our chips, and it was a game-changer. IDK why we had never thought to order the frys or chips with some sauce to accompany them. Even the buffalo sauce mushrooms was unexpectedly delicious. Obviously the buffalo wings were good. Despite the food being amazing I have to say that the best part of our visit here was the look on my boyfriend's face--pure nostalgia and satisfaction. It's moments like these that make revisiting places like Original Buffalo Wings special. Service was excellent too. The cashier, Mel, was incredibly sweet and made sure we were well taken care of. Overall, I highly recommend this spot--a 4.5/5 for sure! read more

If you're craving comfort food - this is your spot! Often overlooked because it's on a busy part of Lombard, it's the best! Go check it out. Great service and awesome food! read more

I'm in town for the week and this is across the street from my hotel. I have already eaten here twice. Even took a friend with me today! Last night they were about to close but still took my order. Every single thing that I've had has been delicious. I think I'll have wings tomorrow. It was quiet and clean on the outside. The employees are really nice too. I guess I'm a regular until I leave. This is just a relaxation trip for me so it's nice to have this so close because the menu has a bit of everything. read more

Terrible wings I got the lemon pepper and they were dry,oily in the wrong ways,little to no seasoning,and had a really dark chicken meat taste. I also got the garlic fries and they were mushy,soggy,very starchy and overall just terrible awful off putting flavors.definitely the worst wings and fries I have ever had in the city and my life do not recommend the wings or garlic fries. Ps. I only ate 1 wing and had to force myself to finish 1 wing after that I threw it away! It was very very awful. read more

Best wings in SF. Food is cooked perfectly. Service is always fast. 10x better than other wing spots around the city.

Ordered the lemon pepper wings and they put so much seasoning it was not edible. I had to wipe each individual piece with paper towels twice just to be able to eat a few pieces. I was skeptical coming here for the first time based on the 3 stars rating, but figured how bad could it be? It was baaaad. 3 stars is too generous. Ill give 2 stars but that may even be too much. Oh and some pieces were lightly fried and others completed over-fried to the point it was biting into a rock. So they obviously mixed in a few pieces of very old dried wings have been sitting under a heat lamp for hours , mixed with some freshly fried wings. Shady. read more

Original Buffalo Wings - two bowls of chili and cheese fries - Chicken Wings Near Me - San Francisco, California

Walked down here for lunch, as my office is just a few blocks up the hill in the Presidio. The building itself is old, and definitely not maintained on the outside. When I arrived around lunch time, half of the inside area was closed to dine-in service, and the establishment was rather dark, as they turned off most of the interior lights. Placed an order through Yelp, and my order was ready when I walked in the door. Service was attentive, and I was in and out pretty quickly. Opted to try their Beef Philly Cheese Steak, which was probably a mistake, given that their very name implies that they specialize in their wings. While not bad, the sandwich was on the smaller end, and overall did not impress. read more

Affordable food prices for San Francisco Marina district. Quality of food is a 2 outta 10 The Food service differs on how the Host Feels at the time. We better treat them nice after all you can't see them making the food. And they will make a mistake on your order. So please check your Order if you're choosing take out, dining experience they don't come around to check if your food was good or bad and can we get some more water please. Customers are eating Wings and Burgers, we need something extra to wash all that stuff down. I've seen rats running around in the kitchen area so don't think they have that under control. It's nasty to see customers plates sitting around for 45mins after eating dinner. Like "I'm done I don't wanna see it anymore" check please! read more

The wings are very tough, the garlic parmesan is hard like clumps on the wings and the fries.

Best Wings! In the Bay Area nice staff! The Fish Sandwich is Top Tier! They have the best fries in America! If you're looking for a place to eat when you visit SF come here! read more

I ordered a beef Philly steak and garlic fries and two orders of mild buffalo wings. The steak was minimal on the sandwich, would not order again. Fries were OK. The mild buffalo wings were not mild in fact, after I had consumed a few wings my mouth felt like I had been given Novacaine. Out of a total of 15 wings they were two drumsticks, and the chicken was dry and did not taste fresh. The wing dishes are supposed to have both celery and carrots, and I was provided very little celery with no carrots. I definitely won't be going back. read more

Garbage.. went to use the restroom while walking fully in uniform would of bought something just to use the restroom but as soon as as I asked to use the restroom she said NO.

This is probably the nostalgia in me, but if you came here years and years ago, it's very nice to come back and have THE flavor again. See... Original Buffalo Wings was my first Buffalo wing experience, so, pretty much everything else I have had since is compared to these. When I first had Buffalo wings from here in the mid-nineties, the wings were bursting with flavor. I had never experienced them before and Original Buffalo Wings got me hooked. Stepping back in today was eye-opening. The menu has expanded by quite a bit from what I remember... and now there are many more flavors than the original spicy flavor. I didn't deviate from what I wanted so I just went for the original spicy. They weren't as much of a flavor bomb as I remember, but I have to be realistic and know that my taste buds have changed over the years. They've been through shock and awe so I'll never had that first experience of Buffalo wings again... but that's ok. I'd have to say that the Buffalo sauce here is still excellent. The taste is what I remember and it has a perfect tanginess. I also got a side order of their house made chips that they fry right there and then. They came out really hot and crisp. I was in heaven! The only gripe I have is that the service here is pretty slow. I came during a dead time in the middle of the afternoon and I still had to wait about 20-25 minutes for my order. But that's what it was back then too... so... I got what I got! read more

I can only comment on the wings. Although, why would you order anything else at this location?. Ordered a 25 piece wing with fries. I am a fan because the wings are smaller than most drumsticks which allows for the sauce to be evenly distributed in all wing pieces. I did not have one piece where I felt like it was missing sauce. In addition, I feel that the smaller pieces allow for the chicken to be crispy. As far as the chips, you can tell they are house made. Slightly a bit greasy bag downside but the flavor is great. They are crispy, variety of pieces and a lot in a bag. The dipping sauces we got were ranch and blue cheese. The fries are thick enough that we actually were dipping the wing sauce with the dipping sauce. I would definitely come back here for wings, the only downside is that the location is the complete opposite side of town for me. Try it out! read more

I've been coming here for years and try to stop by when I'm in the area (which isn't all that often, maybe once a year). My latest trip was a few weeks ago for an early lunch. I came in around 11:00 AM, and the place wasn't that busy (only a couple of people in the dining room). I noticed that the menu was redone, but was sad to see that there weren't any "combo" deals available. Instead, I had to order everything a la carte. While it's not a huge deal, it's a little bit of a pain, since my normal order was always 9 bone-in (classic) wings with the housemade chips and a soda. I put in my order and sat down at a table. About 15 minutes later, one of the servers brought my food. While the menu and the restaurant decor have changed, the food is the same that I remember for the last decade. The wings are on the smaller side, but they are cooked well-done with a very crispy skin. This time, I ordered them with teriyaki sauce, which was very thick and sweet. The chips were also very thinly cut and very crispy. If you like you wings super meaty, then this isn't the place for you. I don't have any experience trying any of these other items, like their burgers or ribs or salads(!). Here, I'm a sucker of habit and get the same thing every time. It's not awesome, but it's comfort food. read more

I went here looking for good chicken strips not the only place I was aware of with good ones, Hillstone, took them off the menu. My response overall was meh, but this is a buffalo wings place and expecting their plain chicken strips to be good is asking a lot. The bacon with the cheese fries was cooked great and the cheese fries were fine, so I'll give them 4 stars. That said, I wouldn't go here for their standard chicken strips/chicken tenders. I can't comment on the more flavorful variants that most people are likely to visit for. read more

No frills, run down dinner like feel, no easy parking...but for wings, good wings this is the place to go. Perfectly cooked , nice sauce selection. Inexpensive. I also got their homemade potato chips. Thin and crisp could have used more salt . Their bacon wrapped street dog was what i was most pleasantly surprised about, great size and flavor. This place is a nice alternative to the high priced touristy food nearby. read more

Once a great treasure, I would drive across the bay bridge just to buy wings here. Sadly the last time I went here the cashier was acting odd, one of which instinces was the continual nodding off. Likely she was on heroine, and the food was a direct representation of what you would expect from an establishment conducted in this manner. Trully unfortunate since it use to be so highly revered when I was younger. read more

The original, before horrible Wing stop took over. The difference is most clear in the depth of flavor you get with obw. Buffalo sauce is strong but it doesn't compensate for the dry flavorless stuff at the big chain with the dumb aeroplane junk. Original only! read more

"Average name, average wings, average rating" This place is straight to the point - the original buffalo wings. Couldn't have named it better myself! The location is pretty convenient as there really aren't many other wing spots in the area (aside from Avelino's). Decent amount of seats. And the service is good. I called in advance and the wings were ready as expected. Now the wings themselves aren't that great. They're pretty small and overly saucy. I'm more of a dry guy myself when it comes to wings. They come in a tray and I'm assuming it's straight from the oven like that. Overall everything here is pretty bland (wings and fries) but if you really want some wings it's worth checking out. Protip: Small order of fries is enough - skip the large. It's actually a decently size. read more

If your idea of a great meal is ordering off the bar menu at TGIF's - then have I found the place for you. I've had a mild interest in this place for years since it's hard to avoid as you're taking the curve onto the commercial part of Lombard. It's on the right usually within sight as I am waiting at the stoplight. "Who the (bleep) goes to a place like that?", I would say to myself in a most condescending manner. Self-revelation came over me this time as to my chagrin, the answer was me. Gasp. Actually the answer was also Jamie W. since he is the chicken wing aficionado. We've been to Capitol in Chinatown. We've been to SO in SoMa. He knows his wings of which I am, of course, the wind beneath. Or maybe I'm the gas. I guess it depends on which sauce you order. Anyway, we stopped on our way back from Crissy Field because we wanted something cheap and decadent. We went full gusto and ordered the $15.25 Double Dozen - 26 wings between us, yes, 26 (see photo). It wasn't as gluttonous as you think since they are on the small side, but Jamie went to town and ordered four different flavors - Mild, Original Spicy, Teriyaki, Spicy Teriyaki - which basically meant unearthly shades of orange and brown glaze were lacquered on the wings. They were OK, nothing that special nor offensive. I honestly more enjoyed the complimentary carrot and celery sticks with the ranch dressing and even the $1.75 pile of fries (see photos). That was a lot even for us, but now we can check this one off the list. FOOD - 3 stars...wings, wings and more wings, but the sauce is a little thick and a little too colorful AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...fast food deluxe with color-blind naugahyde booths (see photo) SERVICE - 3 stars...oh they dished dem wings TOTAL - 3 stars...you need to provide the wind beneath your own wings read more
