I've been going to Wild Mike's for years now and have never had a bad dining experience! The service is great- all the servers take time to really make sure you get what you need. The food is amazing- if you don't take time to try all those wing sauces, you're missing out! Go for the Mikes Mix- you may be weary at first, but it's by far the best sauce! Prices are perfect too! I can enjoy a great meal and not empty out my wallet! All while enjoying my favorite sports on tv. This is definitely the best Wing joint on the West Side! read more

Wild Mike's at the Shady Lane Plaza is by far my favorite restaurant on the west side. Never had anything less than a pleasant experience every time I've been here (which is quite often). One thing I want to point out is that if you're ordering wings, they have a really neat option to pick your sauce, and then pick how spicy you want it. So the sauce flavors aren't bound by how spicy they are or aren't. I find that really great and whenever mentioning Wild Mike's to someone who's never been, I always bring that up! read more

This place is great, the atmosphere is really laid back and everyone is there to have a good time. Plenty of TVs throughout the place and also has a full bar. The chicken wings are second to none voted best wings in Cincinnati a year or two ago. The servers are wonderful, kind, and funny. They like to build their relationship with customers and interact with them. Also, CRAFT BEERS! Usually 2 or 3 craft beers on tap as well as an impressive selection of bottles and bombers that would rival even a liquor store. The best I think to go there is for lunch when they're not extremely busy because you get to interact more with the employees. Don't let the bar fool you however the place is extremely kid friendly and even has a couple arcade game to entertain them. read more

BW3 by another name. Have been to this one and the Delhi one. Good place for wings, burgers, beers, and sports. Beer selection is ok, nothing special though. Their wings are pretty good and they have a good sauce selection. It's pretty much a typical sports bar. The Wild Mike's locations do feel a little cramped at times, like their layout isn't a good as it could be. The disclaimer is that I'm not one for cramming into a bar to watch a sporting event, I like my personal space. These have a good "game-day" attitude. The price level listed, $$$$ is not accurate. $$ at the most. read more

Pride of the West Side! Wild Mike's the true Buffalo Sauce fan's paradise. Their wings are succulent and dripping. The boneless are always hot and they don't use fatty low-quality meat. The traditional wings are my favorite, and if you order them "X-tra Wet", they fill your plastic wing bowl with sauce to continue the marinade throughout your meal. If you are a fan of crazy sauce variety places such as BW3's or Quaker Steak, Wild Mike's may not be for you as they only have five or so choices. I haven't tried much else on the menu, but the chicken sandwiches, and fries (get them with cajun seasoning) are also great. Beer selection is good, and they tend to have some good specials during Reds/Bengals games. Also a fair number of TVs and lots of local sports paraphernalia. This is exactly what I look for in a wings restaurant! read more

We have been coming for years and will keep coming back. Beers are cold, service is good, wings are great! I just wish the were consistent with the sauces. Sometimes hot is hot and sometimes it's not. read more

My daughter and I visited and couldn't believe how dirty it was. Gave us the creeps. Wouldn't take a lot to wash things down. Food was just ok. Visited the location in Delhi and loved the place and their wings. read more

Tucked deep in the west side of Cincinnati, this Wild Mike's is a true gem. The walls are covered in high school football articles and jerseys and the tables are packed with families and grade-school sports teams looking for a post-game dinner, but what you'd never expect is such an excellent and diverse beer selection on this side of town. We stopped in on a "Randall night" (a Dogfish Head beer infuser contraption) with local Blank Slate beer, inviting both the young craft beer crowd and introducing new and exciting local beer to the standard west side crowd. Many of the lifers were still ordering Miller Lite, but I saw several take a chance on the infused Blank Slate (which was excellent). It also looks like they always have at least 1 local/craft beer on tap in addition to the sizable bottle/can selection. The food won't blow you away; it's typical bar & grill fare at reasonable prices. But their wing sauces are great and it's the perfect comfort food for a lazy weekday evening. I was not in the least bit disappointed with their burger or BBQ chicken sandwich. As a recently returned west-sider, I will be keeping this as an easy go-to dinner spot. read more

Delicious food, great atmosphere, amazing service. The food is beyond great, recommend the chicken wings with curly fries. The blu cheese is heavenly. The waiters are always there when needed. The people are nice, and helpful. Would recommend 5/5. read more

Big fan of the place, home town guy but the food portions have gone down a little. 2.7oz of grilling chicken my wife ordered, broccoli was just a few pieces... read more

See all

Come here at least once every couple weeks. Love the bar area and the wings are the best I've had in the country

Love love love this place. I may be a tad biast as I grew up in the area but the wings are damn good, good burgers, great beer selection. Have a buffalo chicken club sandwich that is unique and damn good. If you like blue cheese, theirs is the best in town, hands down. They do get busy Wednesday nights and weekends sometimes. Staff is always friendly. You wont be disappointed. read more

First time eating here. Food was okay, nothing special. 3 stars due to when we called for carry out, I asked for all flats and their response was "we are super busy" hinting that they couldn't do it, and didn't. I would think since I'm paying, I should be able to get what I want. read more

If you want wings and beer go. Other menu items are terrible. Wife and I went again with friends who wanted wings, I had a dinner she had burger. Will not return, even to join friends. read more

Wings were overdone and dry. The other food was low quality and not prepared properly. The bathroom was very dirty along with the restaurant. The decor had a layer of dust on it in the dining area. The manager Mike was rude and arrogant when asked about the underdone burger. If you want a horrible meal and experience, this is the place to go. I ended up getting food poisoning and I will never go here again. read more

Great place to bring your family for some wings! They also he great tuna salad. The bar area is especially nice. Great place to catch a game a grab a beer. They have a huge selection of beers. Thanks Scott for always taking care of us! read more

Best wings ever. I usually get traditional wings, mikes mix medium with a huge side of their amazing, homemade bleu cheese. Never been let down. Always meet or exceed quality expectations. read more

Best Wild Mike's in the city. Don't ask me how or why maybe just better more attentive cooks who knows. It's no mystery as to why they are the most crowded. Great place to watch a game and grab a beer too. read more

Wild Mike's recently added a new bar on the right side of the building with 20 taps and rotating craft beers. Lots of good food and beer!

Wings are always perfect. Beer selection is way better than any place around. Blue cheese is the best I've ever had. I would recommend this wings place to anyone over any chain wing restaurant. read more

So this is a sports bar/wings joint so don't except fine dining. However if you want to fill up on beers and greasy food this is a great spot. I much prefer this place to its larger chain competitor. The wings are un-breaded (aka naked) and fried with your choice of both sauce and heat level. The "hot" would be a medium at other places so I wouldn't be initiated by it if you like a little spice. Also, to all those french fry enthusiasts out there, you should know the curly fries are not seasoned, they are a standard french fry, just curly. Over all I love Wild Mikes and if your looking for a good place to watch a game and eat some wings, check it out. read more

We just moved to Cincinnati and one of the selling points to our house was Shady Lane plaza. Wild Mikes is wonderful! We have only ordered to go, but service has been quick and very easy to deal with. We have tried salads, hamburgers, sandwiches...so far, everything is excellent! Guess wings will be next with all the wonderful reviews! read more

I love Wild Mike's! I discovered it when I moved to Green Township! The chicken sandwich with Wild Mike's special sauce OMG! It's sooo good! And you can get the sauce as spicy or hot as you like ;). DJ (my son) loves it too. He will get the curly fries and the grilled cheese sandwich. It has a great family friendly/sports bar feel! The service is great the waitresses are so nice. I love this place! The best find on the west side of town :) read more

I love their wings!! They are nice and crispy.. and just the right size. The breaded chicken sandwich I'll skip next time.. it was decent tho read more

What a great bar! My husband loves watching the games here. We normally go on Thursdays and get the steak hoagie special. Great price for a great hoagie! Last time he had the ribeye sandwich. He loved it! Watch out Jeff Ruby's! So delicious. We will order again ASAP. Highly recommended read more

I've been going to Wild Mike's for over a decade. Their buffalo sauce is some of the best in Cincinnati. I'm a big fan of their nachos too. The inside is pretty small, but they usually have a decent beer selection. read more

LOVE their wings. Been a family favorite since I was a kid. My favorite is the traditional buffalo hot, beats Quaker state by far in my book. read more

Great wing and great atmosphere. Services was really good. This place has some of the best wings I have found.

Food is amazing! BUT it's a Friday night and your hostess couldn't handle the place being crowded. She was very very rude. And it's a Friday night you need to have multiple hostess. read more

I like Wild Mike's wings, but I only get carry out at other locations. This place is the exception. The wings are tasty & I like the potato wedges with cheese (though personally I like dipping them in the blue cheese.). Burgers are different and interesting. But the real value here is the incredible beer list. So many good options like Stone, Dogfish Head and local too from Mad Tree Brewing. I don't know why the other Wild Mike's don't carry this kind of a beer list. If they did, perhaps I would actually eat in too at other locations. Definitely an oasis for good beer on Cincinnati's West side. read more

Great wings, a very close second to my favorite wing place. Loaded fries are amazing and service is generally good with how busy they always are. Take out or eat in, either way it is tasty! read more

Last time at Wild Mike's the wings were horrible. Very over cooked. Or they sat under a heat lamp too long.

Okay. There seems to be a bit of a confusion going on. You see, I am indeed the real Buddy G of Yelp. I have been working toward an elite membership and will be damned if I let an imposter try to ride my coat tails. I ate at this wild mikes. It WAS indeed terrible. And the food WAS atrocious. How dare a Bush league Buddy G knock off try to slander my name and give a review without my consent. Some people have no respect anymore. read more

Best wings I've ever had! I'm not a huge wing fan, or at least I wasn't until I tried Wild Mike's. The wings are cooked to perfection - crispy, yet juicy and the Carolina Gold and Mike's Mix sauces are super flavorful - spicy and complex. We haven't had anything other than wings at Mike's, so we can't comment on the rest of the menu, but quite frankly I don't know why you'd go to Mike's to get anything other than wings. While we really really like the wings, the atmosphere is a bit lacking - sort of like a small Applebee's with lots of families with young kids and groups of high-school students. I'd prefer a sports bar atmosphere with a better selection of beer; however, Mike's wings, service and prices are so good that we are more than willing to overlook the atmosphere. If you even kinda-sorta like wings, you should give Mike's a try. So much better than BW3s - it's not even a contest. read more

Couldn't review the food because the resturant was not open even though the advertizing said it would be. The location at Harrison and Race lists that the resturant will be open until 12 AM on Fridays and Saturdays. It was barely after 11 PM and the doors were locked and customers attempting to get in and buy food were blocked. read more
