    Came here late in the AM. I was eyeing the BLUE DREAM, and coming from CALI I had to get this (Was a popular choice too). The buffalo sauce on this is blazin! Probably the best buffalo hot sauce chicken I've had. That all AMERICAN hot sauce. I gotta get used to how sour it is! The fried portion was on point. Good crunch, with good sauce = HITTER! Spice level was HOT like Texas heat. No sweat though. The chicken sizes were BIG, but I don't expect nothin small out here. Also the young man was really nice to give food to homeless! God bless.

    Potluck wings are now our absolute go to when craving wings in Austin! Hands down the best you will find in Austin. You may think they are a bit pricey, but we compared the prices to a chain like Pluckers and it's the same. Our 1st time there we were given a few samples. All were great. I say try all the flavors at least once and keep track of which ones you like LOL they are all packed with flavor and huge wing size. The fries...ehh I'll pass, buuuut the wings soooo good! Fav flavors so far are the Loose Cannon and Crack. Check them out!

    The chicken wings are crispy and flavorful. I received a free sample wing to try while I waited for my food. It was hot and fresh. The dry rub was tangy and spicy, a great combination! I got my food to go. The fries were hot, crispy, and seemed to have a similar seasoning on top. They are crinkle-cut fries and were so good. The presentation was good and the portion size is great. The service was amazing. The women that helped me was super friendly and the free sample wing was a nice touch! The restaurant decor is fun and spacious. I can't wait to return and try other wings!

    I highly recommend this place! Everything we tried was delicious, and they have a great variety of both wet and dry wings. The Heat Check wings were excellent but definitely fire , and the Dynamite wings are a great dry option--like Garlic Parmesan with a twist. The service was also top-notch. Service was excellent. The only thing is that they advertised $0.50 wings on Instagram, but they don't tell you that you have to buy a side in order to get 6 wings at that price. The sides are between $10 and $15, so we ended up paying $40-something dollars for 12 wings and 2 sides. I didn't mind paying because the quality of the food was so good, but I think they should specify that rule on the advertisement.

    The Potluck is a great establishment! The wings flavors are vast and you can always find something you like! Our first wings were served a little soft so the kitchen redid them and they came out perfect! The staff is super friendly and nice! The ambiance is nice with R&B playing I can see this being a younger hang out spot! Overall I will be back!

    We have been thinking about swinging by the Potluck for some time and we found them on "Too good to go" so we figure today was the day to try them. The staff were super friendly and welcoming when I walked in. The wings were huge and we really enjoyed the flavors. The fry's were great and well seasoned too. We will definitely be back to try all the different flavors they offer.

    We tried the truck potluck, and it was so amazing that we had to go to the actual restaurant!!! Annabell was nothing but amazing!!! we noticed their menu is a little bit different than the truck, but nevertheless it was still amazing!! from service to how clean the places it was awesome all around!!

    Just leaving was planning on taking my wing home to eat but unfortunately after I ate 1 ate 10 before even leaving the parking lot.The service and vibe was nice definitely gonna come back to see how it is during peep hours but thank you my fellow lousianas

    Loose Cannon

    Food was really good! Wings were huge and stayed crispy even with the sauce. Blue Magic definitely had some kick to it and the fries had good seasoning too :)

    Crack. A little bit of everything with zest & lemon. Flavor explosion!

    Wow the wings here are next level. Like made in a genius mad scientist's lab of flavors. All the flavors just explode in your mouth!!

    2-Star Review -- TikTok Set Me Up. I found this place on TikTok and was excited to try it... but honestly, they lied. I drove 30 minutes to pick up the Gumbo, Red Beans & Rice, and three wing flavors -- Hot Girl Stardust, Loose Cannon, and Crack. As soon as we got home and started eating, everything was insanely salty. Me and my husband both felt our blood pressure go up immediately. Not only that, but every single wing looked identical and tasted identical. You couldn't tell one flavor from another because it felt like they just dumped random seasoning all over everything. Customer service was just as disappointing. When we walked in, a girl came from behind a black door looking surprised that someone was even there. I asked her for recommendations and got nothing useful -- and communication was honestly difficult. The restaurant itself wasn't welcoming at all -- no customers, sticky tables, and flies inside. Fast service, sure... but fast doesn't equal good. Only good thing? The chicken underneath all that seasoning was cooked well. But overall, this was a complete waste of gas, money, and time. TikTok had me fooled -- won't be back.

    There's a lot of food trucks in Austin. There are a few that I consider above the rest and Spicy…read moreBoys is one of those joints. Spicy Boys has four locations in the Austin area, with probably their most popular at Zilker Brewing. They are a spicy chicken establishment and their spicy chicken comes in different shapes and sizes from bone-in fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, and nuggets. I have only ever ordered their fried chicken sandwich and every time, I have been a fan. I always get their middle option in heat, the Hot Gai, which is sandwiched between the OG and the Tingly Gai. It hits every time. The mayonnaise, the pickles, the perfectly crisp chicken: you can't miss it. As a side, I ALWAYS without fail get their Tater Tots. They are consistently crispy while remaining soft on the inside. Sometimes I will get it seasoned with their Tingly Sichuan, but the heat is sometimes too much. I cannot recommend the tots enough. Spicy Boys is one of those places that is always there for you. They are consistently open and the people making the orders are putting a ton of dedication into making them smack every time. The sandwich alone comes at $9.50 with the tots at $3.50, which seems on par or slightly lower than a typical food truck if my memory serves me right. I recommend giving them a shot whether you are at Spokesman in Pflugerville, St. Elmo Brewing, or Zilker off 6th Street. It's in the upper echelon of food trucks. RIYL: peak chicken sammys

It just seemed like chicken chicken to me. No big deal. But then I had been drinking Zilker Brewery's own beer. Out of self protection - my body may have turned off its sense of taste To protect me from the worse than mediocre Zilker beer. If the price of protection from Zilker beer was not being able to taste a chicken sandwich, I was definitely ahead of the game.

    On Super Bowl Sunday, we pulled an audible and decided to come to Revelry after the other place we…read morehad originally planned to check out was dead. It ended up being worth it. The sound and TVs were all pretty great for watching the game, and they had a ton of space. It was nice having the fake grass and picnic tables in the outdoor areas because it really added to the vibe while still being well shaded throughout. The food was good. During the game we shared the Fried Pickles, which were crispy and well breaded with good pickle chips, as well as their Green Chili Queso, which was also excellent. The chips had good seasoning and the queso was thick. For a main entrée, I ordered the patty melt. It was melty with good flavor, but I would have preferred chopped onions over sliced onions. The Sriracha mayo was great and added a kick I was not expecting. The drinks were decently priced for East 6th all things considered. I was not drinking that night and ordered a mocktail variation of their Lavender Haze using zero proof Empress gin instead of the regular Empress gin. They still charged the same price, which felt a little unfair, but it is what it is. Overall, it was a great experience and a solid bar for games. I could see myself coming back for another event since they handled a large crowd well. Aesthetically, the spot is really nice too, which adds to the positives. Not bad for a last minute decision. RIYL: Little Woodrow's without the lames.

You order at the bar and pay and the server brings the food. I ordered the wings and waffles which came with a 5 piece and one large waffle ($16). This combo comes with fresh bacon bits on top and chives. We also ordered a mimosa carafe (with pineapple juice) which was only $12! Such a great deal! My meal was great and the servers were such nice gentlemen! There's outdoor seating and TVs inside if you enjoy watching football. This is a very casual place so you don't need to dress up. You can usually find paid parking in this area too!

First time trying Donkey MO's and I was so surprised how good it was... even for take out delivery! I ordered the 10 Wings combo with French fries . The wings was super crispy and still hot! The plain French fries was good but nothing special. It paired well with the wings and to dip it in the wing sauces. Flavors Soy Garlic: super delicious! Highly recommend! and holy donkey : my gawdddddd I died eating this! It was so freaking spicy I couldn't feel my mouth, started sweating immediately, and my stomach was turning. Somehow it was addictive and I was able to eat 2 before surrendering. This wing sauce is definitely for those who love spicy. it's hot! And that is coming from a person that can eat somewhat medium spicy. Do I recommend this place? I definitely want to try this place in person instead of take out. It was really good and I feel the wings were good size and the perfect amount of crispy even being coated with sauce. It's good! I definitely recommend this place ! If take out was great .. I'm sure sitting down at the restaurant and eating will be even greater!

    I stopped by Donkey Mo's and ordered the 5-piece jumbo wings with the soy garlic sauce, and let me…read moretell you...these wings were HUGE! The skin was incredibly crispy (just how I like it!) and the soy garlic sauce had a great balance of sweet and savory flavor without being overpowering. They definitely didn't skimp on the size either--5 wings was more than enough! I skipped the sides this time because I wanted to focus on the wings, but their onion rings caught my eye, so I'll definitely be back to give those a try. Now...the only downside was the parking. It looked like the front parking lot had been freshly painted because every parking space was blocked off with cones. Everything appeared dry, so I wasn't sure why the cones were still there. That forced everyone to park in the back, which was already super congested. I mentioned it to the staff, but they didn't seem too concerned. Honestly, if I hadn't been determined to try this place--or if it had been any hotter outside or I hadn't gotten lucky finding a parking spot--I probably would've left. Thankfully, the wings made up for the inconvenience! If they can get the parking situation figured out, this spot will be an even better experience. I'll definitely be back...and next time, those onion rings are coming home with me!

When I…read morewent to go pick up my order, the cashier was graciously enough to inform me that their website is powered through DoorDash so if you order online, all the prices are unfortunately higher than their menu...so unfortunate to hear :( As for the food, I ordered the 3 Piece White Meat Chicken Plate, which came with 2 chicken breasts and 1 wing (they surprisingly give the full wing), and it comes with toast, baked beans, and cole slaw be default. You can exchange the default sides for some other options for a little extra charge. It was wonderful to see how generous the portion sizes were, including the sides! The chicken was perfectly friend and breaded in my opinion while keeping the white meat tender -- it was still like that even after I put the leftovers in the air fryer the next day. The baked beans were very flavorful and the sweetness complimented the savory chicken well. The cheer on top moment was the fact that the chicken was seasoned with a spicy seasoning so there was a bit of a subtle spicy aftertaste in each bite! I'll definitely be back again! :)

How do they make their chicken that tender and juicy?? Also, why are the potato salad and mac n cheese the best I've ever had??

Parking is a bit hard since it's in downtown, but there is a parking garage across from the restaurant and it's only $5 for 0-2 hours, which I think is the best you can find. We also came on a Saturday around 2:30 pm. We got our food pretty quick so you can really just eat for 30 minutes and walk around downtown for a good 1.5 hours before coming back and leaving. We will definitely be back!
