Stopped by Wicked Chicken about a month ago while the town-wide yard sales were going on, and I'm really glad we did! I ordered the Cuban with jalapeños added, and while it wasn't the traditional Cuban I usually expect, it was absolutely delicious and so satisfying. The atmosphere was great too -- nice open outdoor seating, live music playing, and an overall fun vibe. Service was quick, prices were reasonable, and our server was attentive and friendly throughout the meal. Definitely a spot I'd stop at again if I'm in the area! read more

I wish I had ordered BONE IN chicken wings. Instead, I made the mistake of ordering boneless wings (spicy pickle dry rub) and a burger (regular) and both were beyond disappointing. I split the burger and the boneless wings with a friend and we ordered an app for the table to split (Mediterranean Ranch Fries). In total, we spent about $50 and it was a complete waste of money. I would go back to try just the regular wings, but I wouldn't make a special trip. The staff was busy but nice and took care of our larger party with smiles and focus. There is a lot of outside seating and indoor seating as well, but the outdoor area is great for groups and friends looking to enjoy the fresh outdoors and a meal. read more

Our experience here wasn't exactly what we had expected that's for sure my fries were the only thing I could eat my chicken sandwich was like a rubbery consistency not good and my fiancés oysters were the size of quarters and the quality was not good at all. Make sure to check the prices that they have on walls not just the menu price there are hidden fees. They bring u a glass of ice water without asking if u want it and then charge u for it. When asked about the charge they simply said they have it posted on walls so that's there response to that price so be warned if u r brave enough to give em a try. read more

Make sure to read everything on the front door and on the walls before ordering as they have hidden fees hidden amongst it all. The server brought us tap water without us asking. We were charged for these waters. There were fees charged as taxes that the server couldn't tell us what they were for, but insisted we pay either way. When we asked about these hidden fees the server just said well we have them posted on the walls so we don't have to tell you. Again, make sure you read everything posted on the walls before ordering. When I asked to speak to a manger, or owner we were told that they aren't around much and that it would be almost impossible to get in touch with. As of now we still have not had either one call us back, or respond to emails. Take this as a warning that the food and service are not worth the money you will spend here. read more

My brother and I ate here over the weekend and was not disappointed! Great folks, and the food was cooked perfectly! Our server Jeanie helped to make it a wonderful experience! I would recommend the fried pickle chips too. Pretty cool spin with the added jalapeno and banana peppers. read more

Perfect lunch, beautiful fall weather made for a great afternoon here. The cheese curds were extraordinary. The bourbon sirracha (don't let all the chili peppers scare you on the menu they are a mild-hot. The bbq&sassy dry rib was good. The hot rooster I'd pass on to try another flavorful option. The burger was good too. And finishing it off with Hershey ice cream, we'd definitely go back. read more

Gosh. Not many choices here in Damascus but this one was open late lunch so we went. Loved the outside seating but it was hot. Later we went to the bathroom and found that there was a ton of inside seating but it was never shown or offered to us- my guess is that they wanted to keep that area to theirselves? Also the restaurant was chained off- very odd. The menu was paper and dirty but diverse. Not great for vegetarians. I opted for a steak salad. The meat was absolutely disgusting. It was not steak. It was some sort of beef you'd put in a stew. Tasted cheap and chewy. My partner got the chicken slider that was clearly some breaded frozen chicken with some red sauce and a bag of Sysco chips. They used white out to communicate fries were no longer a side option. The service was sporadic- great at first but then MIA. Tons of servers tho. The ice cream place on site also sold $1 beers and Jell-O shots? Strange. The ice cream was mayfield and pretty affordable with a diver array of options. The one scoop was a good size. read more

Awful. Waited an hour for a sorry overcooked chicken sandwich that didn't have the tomato it was supposed to come with or the seasoning and cold fries. Servers were everywhere but they just kept bringing out drinks. All the other customers waited a long time for their food as well. My mother's was so bland and claimed it was the worst meal she had ever ordered. read more

Did a day trip to Damascus and chose this place for lunch. Sat outside and enjoyed the spring weather. Maybe it was due to few customers and a breezy day but I didn't get a good vibe. The food was ok and the service was gratuitous at best. I plan to try it again next time in town read more

Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Both indoor and outdoor seating available. I had lunch here today and decided to sit outside (rare occasion for early November). There are lots of options on the menu (one shouldn't have any issue finding something they like). I decided on the Wicked Chicken Sandwich (grilled chicken breast tossed in whatever sauce you choose). I chose pineapple Sriracha. The food was very good! I also tried the fried deviled eggs. I'm not a fan of deviled eggs, but I decided to take a chance. They were good, too. Definitely recommend this restaurant! read more

Great wings. Excellent service. What a neat little spot. PBR was 1 dollar and a Bloody Mary is only 4. What great prices. The wings are really good as are the sides. Don't think you can go wrong at The Wicked Chicken. read more

We almost didn't go because we couldn't figure out where to go in. There is a chain on the outside and it says to wait for service but no one came lol. We just moved the Chain and went in the door and they sat us. The wings are great and the chicken Philly was awesome! U can get whatever sauce you want on it. The service is great. There is one waitress that has a very pretty singing voice. It was nice to hear her sing along to the songs. Oh you have to try the fried deviled eggs. They're really good! This is the best place to eat in Damascus in my opinion. read more

Very cute decor and friendly sweet servers but they were busy and service was slow accordingly which was ok glad they had the business but I ordered the kale salad which had alot of interesting ingredients, however I guess they don't know to tenderize the raw kale you have to massage it in olive oil, so the kale was pretty much impossible to chew up! Plus, they didn't remove the stems so I had to deal with that. I ended up taking it home to massage it myself. I'll try again but will order a different meal. read more

The food was good. Just wanted to make everybody aware that this restaurant charges 20% gratuity for takeout orders. I was unaware of why my bill was so high so I called Samantha, the manager twice. The first time she avoided my questions about my bill. On the second call, she finally said " oh yes, there's a 20% gratuity added. I thought I told you that". She did not. read more

Visited on Saturday March 30th after riding on the Virginia Creeper Trail. Really good atmosphere to enjoy some good wings and other food after a ride. We had. group of 11 people and arrived shortly after we finished our ride at around 3:00pm. We were greeted by friendly staff and was waited on pretty quickly. The kitchen was slammed but they did a pretty good job of bringing the appetizers out quickly. I ordered the Cuban sandwich and Creole Dry rub wings. I really enjoyed both especially the sandwich. The wings were spicy but not too hot. My wife had the the burrito bowl but wasn't to impressed. Others in the group wings and and burgers and both seemed to please. There is an ice cream parlor at the same location in the outside picnic tables where we had our meal. The ice cream was really good. I also sampled one of the Damascus Local brews they had. Overall a great local place to eat. read more

Who would think riding DOWN hill would drum(stick) up a wicked appetite? Great location - first stop with cold beer, hot chicken pot pie or wings or super salads and ICE cream. OH YEAH. If the ride could get any better - it did. Ample seating inside and outside! We picked a perfect day for our ride - and eats! While the greek salad sported fresh greens - the Gypsy Circus Tart Cherry Cider on tap stole the show ... ice cold ... UNTIL ... the hand-dipped ice cream slid into all those little cracks after the big show! Fantastic staff - all smiling, all happy to answer questions, offer suggestions. Food came out as ordered for our group of ten. Check the specials board too - you'll find something you'll love. Chicken or egg ... doesn't matter which comes first, you'll cross the road happy. read more

After a 17 mile bike ride down the Virginia Creeper Trail, the Wicked Chicken was a perfect stop to recover. Service was amazing even with a sign that said they were low staff and please be patient. Draft beer was cold, food was fresh and delicious, and the attached ice cream shop was a great end to the day of adventure! read more

BEST WINGS!!! Everything on the menu is absolutely delicious. The wings are my favorite but the fried deviled eggs are a staple too. I always bring friends here when visiting Damascus! read more

Food is great and service was wonderful! Would definitely come back again. Even the kids ate their meals which never happens!

Might be the worlds worst burger. Precooked or microwaved not sure. $12, I wasn't expecting the best burger but this was not edible. On a positive note the vibe was good and had a local performer that was good. read more

On our way to Tazewelll we drove through Damascus when we noticed people sitting outside. Being hungry and the weather sunny we turned in on whim only to realize what a great place this is. Greeted by a great sounding one-man band we were seated by the hostess. The menu looked great and I ordered a burrito bowl and so did my friend. The food was served in a classy white bowl with all ingredients separated. A feast for my eyes as well for my tastebuds. Definitely will come back read more

Great service and super friendly staff! I had boneless wings which seemed to be your standard frozen then deep fried boneless wings with buffalo sauce. They weren't bad, I just think there was a missed opportunity to put their own spin on these using fresh chicken. My husband had the Reuben? (Sorry, I didn't get a picture before he demolished it) with pulled pork on it, which he was quite happy with. The amazing dish, though? The reason I'm writing this review? The Pickle Medley appetizer. FANTASTIC. A mixture of fried dill spears, fried pickle chips, and spicy fried dill slices. Oh, and fried banana pepper slices. FANTASTIC, I say, as a fried pickle conneseur, lol. They were perfectly cooked, crispy without being overdone. The batter was thin coated and not bready or gummy at all. The pickles tasted homemade and I would swear there was rosemary added to the dill but I forgot to ask. I would come back just for those alone. I don't know if it's the only restaurant in Damascus but we've come here each time we've biked the Virginia Creeper Trail. It's convenient, priced right, entrees are good, and there's an ice cream stand right across from live music. This is a great little place. read more

My wife and I enjoyed our meals and drinks. The staff are very friendly and helpful with everything we needed. We absolutely enjoyed our visit!! read more

Ate at this restaurant because it was highly recommend after my bike trail ride. Also riding past during the ride the restaurant was crowded so it must have been good. The service was good based on our dietary restrictions the waitress was able to accommodate us. The food was decent. Order the crab cheese & jalapeño poppers with the medium Buffalo chicken sliders. The chef/waitress forgot my lettuce, tomato and ranch dressing with my sliders. Also I am not a fan of waiters/waitress receiving my payment form and taking forever to come back to my table. It took awhile for the waitress to deliver my payment form back which irritated me. Overall, this is place is good to spot and eat after your bike trail ride. They also had live music playing which was nice! read more

Surprisingly really good. Service by Amanda was exceptional. Food came out quickly exactly as ordered from large menu. Burgers and chicken were excellent. Clean inside and outside seating. Definitely my go to place to eat in town. Maverick read more

Good food, good service, well priced! Interesting atmosphere. Lots of hiker and biker traffic.

I wanted to eat here so bad! Yelp said it was open until 7pm, the sign out front said it was open 12-8 but, when we got there at 6:30 it was wrapped up tight! And then closed Mon and Tuesday like everything else in town. read more

Ignore some of the other reviews, this place is very good and service is great! Stopped here while waiting out rain on the Creeper and glad we did. Our server was attentive and quick, and the food better than expected. I had the wicked chicken sandwich and it was awesome, great flavor and crunch . My son had the Cuban and raved about the flavor. Curly fries are the go-to side because the coleslaw is weak. Beer selection is solid and the overall feel of the place is very comfortable and cute - if anything it's almost too quiet indoors! Great option if you are in the area! read more

Great little stop after a morning of biking on the Creeper Trail. Outdoor seating was nice, and having some live music was a nice touch as well. Staff was friendly and exceptionally accommodating. Great vibes and come as you are. read more

Dry rub wings were good and the atmosphere was wonderful the waitresses were on point and a joy

The wings were ok, but the Cobb salad was tasteless as was the hi Ken and avocado melt sandwich. We should have been clued but the restroom facilities which was an outside portable toilet. We hope the staff had better facilities and hot water to wash with. We won't be back read more

Had a great meal and the service was awesome! Everything was very fresh and really delicious. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Great food and atmosphere after riding the Creeper Trail. They had lots of great choices for the adults and the kids.

Another 5 star review, only take out this time. Saturday was extremely busy but they were holding their own. One young lady who seemed to be running things (possibly the manager, her name might have been Amanda who I spoke to on the phone), really stood out, grace under fire basically. There was a line to enter, I asked if I could come in for a "to go order ", and she asked if I was "pot pie guy". yep, that's what I ordered, she escorted me in, and my food was waiting. She really had a great demeanor. I had the pot pie dinner with mashed potatoes with green beans. The pot pie was huge, baked in a medium sized pie pan. It had a thick sauce, tender chicken, and vegetables you expect in a pot pie. The potatoes were creamy and a bit garlicky. The green beans were not overcooked. Just a perfect meal after sitting in the sun all day at Damascus yard sale. Thanks for making dinner easy and enjoyable! read more

Love this place! Food is always great and staff is the friendliest around! Definitely try the Chicken Pot Pie

This is likely the best food in town. Really great salads. Lots of selection. Great outdoor patio!

Soooo yummy! We came to bike the Virginia Creeper Trail and enjoy the fall leaves. When we were done we stopped here for dinner. Everything is good here! Order with confidence. The onion strips, which are like onion rings are delicious! Most folks order the chicken wings, and they do look delicious, but we tried the chicken pot pie instead. It tasted as good as your grandma's-homemade chicken pot pie. I recommend this place! We're coming back for wings tomorrow. read more
