    Onion rings
    Mandy H.

    We got the onion rings and 25 bone in wings. Flavors we got: the slayer, gold rush, Wild West, the boss (dry rub) and the fireball. The onion rings have a beer batter. Our favorite wing flavors were gold rush and fireball and the slayer as runner up. The spice levels are more mild as someone who likes heavy heat. Service was good overall. Ambiance is sporty with lots of TVs and high tops and rustic. 8.2/10

    By far the rudest bartender I've ever encountered. I was polite to him and he treated me like I assaulted his mother.

    This place is actually pretty cool and the wings are good but they have a serious problem with one of their bartenders. The guy was so rude to me that I wondered if I had done something to him. I tried to order a couple beers and they were busy. The elderly lady standing next to me had been waiting for a while so I told her if I can get someone's attention I'll order your drink too. I ordered my beers and said that lady right there wants a rum & coke. He looked at me and said this is my area. He flat out refused to pour her drink and treated me like a disease. She then walked down and he took her order. This guy needs to go work at the DMV because bartending is DEFINITELY NOT HIS FORTE. If I owned this place and had employees treating my customers like that I'd resolve immediately. Until this guy isn't there I'm not going back. Aside from that the place is pretty solid. He's the only reason this place is a 2 star review so take that into account.

    So many flavors to choose from at Wild Wing. I got the 6 and 6, which are 6 wings and 6 tenders. Honey lime sriracha wings and ginger tenders. Frankly, I liked the ginger tenders more than the wings. Just a thought for me next time. The tenders are too big to just pop in your mouth unless you are not wanting to talk for a minute. The sriracha had a bit of heat and was what I wanted. All of the chicken (wings and round tenders) was tasty and tender. I have not been to a Wild Wing Cafe in quite a while so this was a welcome reentry into the chicken world. Yum! The only downer was waiting for the wait staff, as we were seated in an area toward the front near a table of about 20 men women and children that had more attention (obviously) than the four of us, but even so, it would be nice to get some attention. Perhaps the manager would ensure that one wait staff is not overwhelmed with an extremely large table. Lost one star for that.

    Fun place to hang out with friends, especially when the weather is cooperating and the outdoor patio is open. The wings are very good and there are a wide range of flavors. During lunch hours there is an all you can eat wing bar.

    Update: we've been twice since my original review. The second time everything was good but it was awkwardly quiet and empty. The third time we had an extremely rude waitress. The food is pretty good but it's not worth coming all the way to Knoxville for decent food and terrible service. The food was really good, better than Buffalo Wild Wings. Ordered Wings that weren't supposed to be spicy and they still had a spice to them. The restaurant was clean but the bathrooms weren't. While we were eating our waiter was good with keeping up with our drinks but he never gave us wet naps. I think they should be left on the table of a wing restaurant. I went to the bathroom to wash my hands and my fiancé asked the waiter to bring wipes. The restaurant inside and out has a nice atmosphere and the associates were all really nice and attentive. We'll definitely be back!

    You see chicken wings bones, I see accomplishment.

    Why do I show you this empty plate? That is because it is a family tradition and our yearly accomplishment. Every year at Christmas when our family gets together, my cousins and I come to Wild Wings for the all you can eat buffet. The wings here are big and delicious. If you want to try the best flavors, make sure you get The Boss and Wild West. The blue cheese and ranch here are superior to any other wing place besides Taco Mac. You've got to go for the all you can eat. You really can't beat the price.

It's in a little building between Clinton and Oak Ridge and the staff is the absolute friendliest group ever. It's a smaller restaurant so it might be packed some days and a little quieter others. Clinton has no shortage of options when it comes to Mexican restaurants and everyone seems to have their favorite and that's totally fine but this place stands out to me and I'll tell you why. Everything I've ever ordered there seems to have better and more dynamic flavor than other places. My favorite dish is fajitas or grilled chicken but this place has me switching up my order to try things I otherwise would not because literally everything I've ever gotten here is amazing. There are certainly staples you'll find at other places but they have a great carne asada steak, the grilled chicken is amazing. Even the shredded chicken is legit. This trip we got a kids cheese quesadilla with rice and beans, a kids ACP, and I got cheese enchiladas with grilled chicken on top. I loved my enchiladas but had no problem tasting the rest of the families items because it was all so good. If you like spicy make sure and ask for some of their homemade hot salsa it's really good. They also have frosted glasses for cold draft beer both domestic and imported. 10/10 - I'd go back anytime.
