I just don't get it. Their high star rating. The wings are trash and I can't believe that THIS is what replaced Fire Wings?! Like REALLY?! These are the worst wings that I have EVER consumed and I'm still trying to figure out how this place is still in business?! Had a rare craving for chicken wings one night and remembered that I still hadn't tried this spot. Dropped by and the place was completely empty. That was the first warning that I ignored. Walked up to the counter and there was nobody at the register. Took a few minutes to look at the menu and noticed that there were only wing meals or party wing packs. Finally called out to see if someone was there, and a young gentleman came out to the front. I asked him if they served wings a la carte in a smaller size and not a party pack, but he said they didn't. Kind of disappointing but whatever. Looked again at the menu and noticed that the prices were kind of high for the bone in wing meals. For reference; for 8 bone in wings + a side and drinks it's $17. Maybe I'm cheap, but that just seems pricey to me. Especially since I really just wanted wings without the sides and drink. Decided to order the boneless wing combo for a better value. Got the 10 piece wing combo (Thai chili and garlic parmesan) and a side of tots. I think my first mistake was ordering boneless wings. When I saw them in the box, I was already disturbed. They were like hella tiny chicken nuggets but worse. First of all, who the hell prepares garlic parmesan wings like this? The "parmesan" shreds were literally thrown on top and definitely weren't fresh. Tried the wings they were friggin' TERRIBLE! Dry AF and clearly overcooked. They also had that freezer burn taste which clearly indicated to me that they had been frozen and for a while. Also despite all of those parmesan shreds, they tasted damn near completely flavorless. The Thai chili wings were gross too. Not enough rub and they were also hella dry. The dips didn't help at all either. Literally couldn't finish the wings. The tots were waaaay too salty and over fried. Like what in the faaack are these people doing back there in that kitchen? Because they certainly ain't cookin' sh!t back there. Literally threw everything away and got fast food that night. Wasn't trying to drive all the way back there for a refund or for them to remake it. When you know... you know. Waste of time and money. Still can't believe that they are charging for those wings. Maybe their bone in wings are better but I'm really not trying to find out after this experience. Skip it and FAST. read more

Actually found this place from TikTok. Nice outdoor seating area in downtown Concord; they also have lots of indoor seating and bar seating as well. The cashier greeted me right away and made somw recommendations on fan favorites as well as her own favorites. I only had to wait maybe 5 minutes for my order which was brought out to me. The wings had a nice crispy exterior and juicy meat. Sauce was perfect and not super salty. The snow cheese was almost like Cheetos powder on fries. Overall sooo yummy and perfect weather for outdoor dining read more

Walt from Walt's Adventures here in Concord, California. I report to you today from The Monster Wings. It would be a mistake to let the name fool you for they have far more than simply chicken wings. They have a bar upon entry and chicken sandwiches and tenders. Simply choosing your type of chicken is merely the first step. The second is choosing what flavors you would like to consume. I chose garlic and cheese but they have honey butter and several more selections to choose from on their menu. The presentation and taste were equally fine. So much, in fact, that I saw the bottom of my dish. I chose to have my potatoes presented to me as tots rather than fries which was also well prepared. Three out of five because my chair had a wobble and the bottom of my dish had some left over oil. Otherwise, I would most definitely recommend The Monster Wings if in downtown Concord. You're taste buds will thank you. read more

Reasonable wings and this place also serves beer! We shared a 12 piece bone-in combo (we swapped tots for fries for an extra $1) and we ordered the tikka masala, the lemon pepper, and the parmesan garlic. The tikka masala sauce was a revelation - a light curry sauce that was not spicy and was perfect for dipping the tots. The lemon pepper was nice and balanced - not too much pepper. The parmesan garlic wings were solid as well. It will take 10 minutes or so for your order, but that is because everything is made to order! The read more

Monster Wings showed up on my Yelp search when I was looking for a new chicken place to try out. The reviews looked promising so I placed an order here for pickup several weeks ago. I ordered the 5 piece wings, tater tots and a drink. I got my wings with the honey butter flavor. When I arrived there I saw that they canceled my order for tots since they ran out. I was bummed but opted for the fries instead. Overall, the food was okay but I kind of already forgot how it tasted. I think it was just alright? read more

Monster Wings is nicely tucked within Todos Santos Plaza. There's a decent-sized parking lot located next door. The lot holds about 10 cars. Upon entering Monster, you'll notice the similarity to a Buffalo Wild Wings (their logos look somewhat similar). Monster had a small bar (to the right) within its 200 square foot dining area. The bar was unmanned but it contained three, 30 inch T.V.'s for our entertainment. The dining area had a single family with a few kids eating near the front. A few customers trickled inside, but, overall, it wasn't considered "too busy". I was disappointed to hear that their lumpia appetizers were "sold out". Surprisingly, it was still early in the evening (6:30 pm). I spent about $35 ( before tax/tip) on 17 wings. The flavors we ordered were Teriyaki, Tikka Masala, Sweet Curry and Thai Chili. 12 wings came with a choice of chips, while 5 of the wings came with a choice of plain fries. We waited for a good 10-12 minutes for our wings to arrive. I was impressed by the clean presentation of our food. The wings and things were nicely assembled. Although I took a few minutes of taking foodie pics, the fries, chips and wings were just "warm". The chips and fries were underseasoned. Also, the wings were neither plump or juicy. While the wings tasted decent, it lacked the freshness that I was seeking in newly fried food. It seemed that the chef prioritized on the presentation of the dishes as opposed to the food's temperature, quality of ingredients and the flavors. It was a very "basic" wing experience. read more

I honestly didn't enjoy the wings at all. They had a weird, kinda old taste that just threw me off. Not sure if it was the seasoning or something else, but whatever it was--it wasn't good. I couldn't finish them, and it pretty much ruined the meal for me. I don't think I'd be returning. read more

This was my first time here and and I really enjoyed everything I had. I walked and quickly greeted the friendly cashier. I ordered the boneless wings and flavors that I tried was the Nashville hot so delicious, and it came with bread and butter pickcles, which were sweet to the heat. The Tikka Masala was spot on and delicious. The Zilla and the Thai chili were also great. Every piece was moist and tender, also perfectly cooked. The location was huge and has a beer bar with plenty of tv's to watch games and some seating out front. I can't wait to return and try some of the other flavors. read more

Congratulations on managing to stay open during the pandemic!(They opened shortly after SIP) Let's all continue to support small businesses. Lots to love about The Monster Wings, prime location at Todo Santos, good variety of chicken wings and they even have lumpia! Paired with some beer and you have a party in your belly! Don't forget to try honey butter wings. The owner even visited our table and said hello. Great service and friendly people. read more

I forgot to do my review and this was saved in my drafts! We were walking around trying to figure out. We we're looking at the menu outside and a man came out and asked us if we have tried them before. He told us they had lumpia too so we thought we would try them out. I know why they call them monster wings! They are HUGE! Juicy and tasty! Lumpia was good too. I would recommend this place. The cheese wings reminds me of the cheese they use for popcorn ( the toppings) read more

I'm giving them a 4 star but this is actually more deserving of 3.5 stars. They replaced the old Fire Wings, same interior but different menu. There's seating indoors and outside. I love that they have hand washing stations outside of the restroom so you don't have to go in the bathroom if you're just looking to wash your hands (saucy fingers gang)! We tried 3 wing flavors: Ghost buster- might just be my fav Buffalo out of all the chains. Perfect amount of heat, and not overly vinegary (talking about you bww) Lemon pepper- my least fav of the trio. The lemon pepper flavor just wasn't there at all and these wings seem battered with a thin coating. Zilla- this one has so much potential but just missed the mark a little bit. If this one had some heat, it would elevate the flavor by so much but unfortunately, you get a strong taste of sweet soy sauce only. The umami is there, it just needs boost. We also has seasoned fries and garlic cheese curds. These fries are sooooo crispy but the inside is soft, which is perfect. My SO thought it was overly crispy though. The fries seem battered too... which was unexpected. Garlic cheese curds we're amazing! I had them dipped in ranch and honey mustard, for a little oomph. The serving is huge, and I kinda wish they served various sizes since I'm the only one who eats cheese in my duo. I probably wouldn't get this again for $7 when I can only eat like 1/4 of the order by myself. Service was courteous and the restaurant was clean. I look forward to going back and trying more flavors! read more

Food was ready earlier then yelped predicted which was no fault to the restaurant but the wings themselves were not that great. Asked for extra crispy and they were not. Flavor is barley there on the Lemon pepper and Thai chili. Maybe it's better to eat it there but for my first experience it's making me not want to come back. Could of gotten a better meal somewhere else. Also found a small bug in my fries. Later that day- I did get a call back from monster wings corp. the lady who I spoke with was very kind and wanted to hear my concerns so they can better improve on what happened. I would like to give it another try at a later time to see if it can wow me . read more

Drove by this place for the past couple of months and have wanted to stop in and sure glad we finally did! We tried boneless wings- Thai chili, ghostbuster, and the teriyaki 15 piece. The flavors were spot on and the textures were perfect. We also tried The Monster bone in wings and they brought the heat. They were flavorful and short burn. Loved the flavors all around. They have a great beer selection as well. TV's playing sports and friendly and helpful employees. Definitely coming back and highly recommend :) read more

Loved their wings here. Just done right, not overcooked or a sodium overload like that other wings place (that I dare not mention). I have issues with certain cooking oils and usually avoid anything fried since it ignites chronic muscle pain inflammation issues that I have but dining here I did not experience any inflammation issues so I am assuming they use a better quality frying oil than other places. My senior citizen mom also liked the wings since it was not too salty and she had no digestive issues after dining here which a feat in itself. Two thumbs up also for the lady who works here who cleaned up our table coming in since the prior occupants were not able to properly clean up after themselves.

Yeah, its those with monster sauce. We did not enjoy it. But the wings were slammin' read more

I normally order my wings from wingstop or Bonchon. But since I moved to Martinez, I decided to try something new. Thank god I did! Their flavors are much more flavorful than the ones I've tried in the past, and you can tell they focus on really good flavors since this is a mom and pop shop! I have now found my wings spot for the 49er games, let's gooo!!!! Btw, I ordered the thai chili, teriyaki, lemon pepper, garlic, bbq, and plain. I only ate the thai and the teriyaki (my wife and kids had the others), but the thai chili flavoring was all over and inside the wing! Full of flavor and richness! The teriyaki sauce was thick and juicy. But the way the wings were cooked, was just perfect! I'll be ordering more wings next week for the 49ers NFCCG! read more

Best wings I've had since I moved over here! I noticed this place a few weeks ago and I couldn't help but notice how many people were going in and out their doors.... Sooo I knew I had to try it soon. My husband and I both ordered 8pc wing combos. They have so many different flavors including dry rubs, I had a time trying to figure out which flavors I wanted to try out. I ended up ordering half Nashville and the other half buffalo. Instead of getting regular fries I decided to try the honey butter fries. I was a bit skeptical about them but that all went out the door once I tried them. They were AMAZING and so were the wings!! The Nashville wings were a sweet and spicy dry rub, they were good but not my absolute favorite. Just a little too spicy for me, but my husband loves them. The buffalo wings were great not too hot, perfectly fried and sauced. I did sample one of the wings my husband ordered, and I must say I was impressed. The flavor he picked was Zilla, which is more like a chinese sesame chicken flavor. Oh my goodness it was so tasty, I almost wanted to trade my wings for his! Overall, I definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves wings. They do have other things on the menu to try . So I will be returning soon! read more

I had been here a few times and they are consistent. I had ordered the Buffalo Wings Bone in, and the Nashville Wings and BBq Wings Boneless. They had a choice of Tater tots and a drink was included. (Pepsi Fountain) The sauce we had ordered was the Thai Glaze dipping sauce, Both times the Wings were good and Tater tots were crispy. They do offer Beer and have a few Taps from Napa Smith. I will go back and try more of their flavors and try the Beers, as well. read more

This family-owned restaurant is a wonderful addition to the already great collection of restaurants in the the Todos Santos area. It was a pleasant surprise hearing about their opening, since there are not many wing spots that I can consider to be of an atmosphere like wing-stop or Buffalo Wild Wings, places where there is a wonderful ambience to dine-in with friends & family while surrounded with good music and/or TVs showing all the live sporting events. The chicken is phenomenal to say the least, I was a bit tentative as to how good the chicken would be, as I knew they were just getting into the swing of things and the food would probably be not so up to par with what I am used to, but I was completely blown away with not only how good the chicken was, but the presentation as well. The chicken is definitely up there with the best I've tried in a long time. I was quick to pick favorites in terms of flavor, as I would highly recommend "Zilla" & "Honey Butter" as must-haves when visiting. Their desserts are not as advertised compared to the chicken, but the beignets are also a MUST-TRY! The staff here are amazing and very well-trained. From the managers, to the front-cashier, as well as the prep-team that is partially visible when ordering, the staff here help keep the place remain in a very welcoming and friendly environment. If you choose to dine-in and have any problems or need anything, the staff is very quick to help you get accommodated. If I could rate 10 stars I would! Overall an amazing experience at a very welcoming family-friendly restaurant. *** They are currently not taking door dash orders, but are more than happy to take to-go orders over the phone!! read more

I've been here 3 times now and service remains their biggest strength! They are so friendly, patient and accommodating. They had messed up the wing count in my order and I didn't see it until I got home. I called, they took my info and I just had to come in another time and order whatever I wanted. I've enjoyed the lemon pepper wings the most. I also had the chik'n wings with lemon pepper and they were good. Fries have been consistently served lukewarm so may be opportunity there to provide hot fries with bc the fresh wings. Beignets we're not so great. A bit flavorless and the consistency was not quite right. The waffle was delicious! I ate it like a cookie. It was sweet and dense. I return for the convenient location and great service! read more

My appetite and ability to eat are slowly returning after my last chemo round. Let me tell you, soup is a meal! Driving is one of the few activities that doesn't wear me out, so I jumped (okay, crawled) in my car earlier today to stop at a few favorite spots in Concord. I sang and chair danced with the wind blowing through my buzz cut. It was delightful! The second stop of my Concord cruise was The Monster Wings on Salvio in Concord. I've been before, and I really love their wings. They're meaty, crispy, and full of flavor. They have a ton of flavor options, both dry and saucy! I got my favorite, lemon pepper and salt and pepper. I opted for carrots and celery as my side for the wing combo, but they have a variety of sides that you can select. A girl has got to get her veggies y'all! I also tried their delish lumpia! Yum! I've always experienced great service and food at The Monster Wings. Today I decided to see if the owner was available. I got to meet Ed, and he's super nice! We chatted for quite a while. The Monster Wings is a family-owned business, and Ed's daughter is the manager. They could use our support. They're a bit outside of the plaza, so they don't get the same foot traffic as some of the other businesses. The establishment is super clean; they have indoor and outdoor dining, beer and wine, and lots of TVs! read more

everytime i go there, chicken's always fresh and juicy, never dry. The flavors and sauces are on point. my favorites are ghostbuster, salt & pepper and garlic parmesan. The lumpia are monster lumpias (not the regular tiny ones)and monstrously delish! the toast is a must-try. DA Nashville is the best chicken sandwich I have ever had--juicy chicken tender pieces with the right amount of heat balanced by thier out-of-this-world slaw! Perfect venue to watch sports, they have indoor and outdoor seating too. Heard they have live guitarist/singers on certain days- hope to catch that one day. Service is amazing-- staff's very personable and friendly. cant wait for a branch to open near me! read more

This is my new go to place for wings. The wings come straight out of the fryer and are hot and juicy, that's why you have to wait a little longer than you do at other wing places. My go to is the honey butter and the salt n pepper bone-in wings. The fries are also super crispy. They also have some sandwiches and interesting desserts I need to try next time. I'll update my review when I try them out. Service is also friendly and there are a lot of TVs to watch sporting events and whatever is on TV. read more

I wish I could say I have had a single good experience at Monster Wings because their food truly is so good but every experience has been a nightmare. I called ahead at 6:05 PM and was told it would be a 30-40 minute wait. My husband showed up after that time frame and ended up waiting over an hour! I HE DID NOT GET OUR FOOD TILL AFTER 7:00. I get that sometimes you get very busy. I worked in the restaurant industry for 10+ years as a waitress. The lack of communication was beyond frustrating. To make matters worse, the staff was incredibly rude. Not a single one of them seemed to care about the long wait times or the clearly annoyed customers. When I politely inquired about the status of our order, I was told that the employee that I TALKED TO WHEN I PLACED THE ORDER SAID 40-50 minutes. Why lie? Just own up to your mistake and make up for it. Right? It's really disappointing when a restaurant has the potential to be great but falls short due to poor service and ridiculously long wait times. If you have time to kill and enjoy being treated poorly, give Monster Wings a shot. Otherwise, save your appetite for a place that values your time and treats you with respect. read more

The Monster Wings is located in the downtown Concord area. They have a parking lot, street parking around, and a parking garage nearby. They had a special - it was 85 cents/boneless wings every Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I came for the 85 cents boneless wings deal. I tried the Buffalo, Garlic Parmesan, Lemon Pepper, and Nashville. I was intrigued by their Honey Butter and Thai Chili. The Buffalo wings and the Nashville flavoring was decent, it was not too bad, but a bit dry. The Garlic Parmesan and Lemon Pepper was dry and way too salty. read more

Wings were good got the buffalo, Parmesan garlic, bbq and the Nashville.

I understand that it was busy but when you pre order for a specific time they shouldn't be a half hour late. I will be giving them another try though. read more

Picked up some wings for dinner at home...and, they were great! By the time we got home, they were still warm and just as tasty. 1. 5 wing meal (all ghostbuster flavor) + tater tots 2. 8 wing meal (lemon pepper & Thai chili) + regular seasoned fries Tater tots were crispy. Ghostbuster is a must try if you like spice...it's easy to enjoy, but after you take that bite..you can def feel a small tingle :] not too crazy!! Also, the wings are big and very meaty. Not like other places, tbh. Definitely worth your money and your visit. read more

I was excited to try Monster Wings since I had seen so many good reviews, but must admit I was fairly disappointed. The ambience was okay, I imagine during the evening when it's full it's a lot of fun, but midday at lunch it felt kind of odd. When I walked in only one person was there and I felt like I was intruding, it was a weird vibe to have in a restaurant and I'm not entirely sure what caused it. Funny enough a coworker came in a few minutes after and said she felt the same way. The bathroom was fairly dirty and you had to ask for a burdensome key to access it. I understand businesses in the area have to lock the bathrooms due to past issues but if you hand me a large stick with keys attached that both looks and feels sticky I start to question how clean the whole place is. Onto the food: I tried the Thai Chili and the Tikka Masala. The tikka masala was alright, the Thai chili was way too sweet. I truly wonder if I even got the right order as neither tasted how I expected. The soda machine had a lot of options and some of those little flavor injectors, which was honestly the best part of my meal. I'm a sucker for vanilla in my drinks. Would I go back? Probably not. I'm willing to try it again maybe, but for the price and quality I just am not sure if it would be worth it. So many great restaurants in the area, I had higher hopes for this one. read more
