I usually have the half smoke whenever I visit but tonight I had a pork roast on my mind. I ordered the Mombo wings as an appetizer and they were off the bone sublime! But what was this? Why there was plenty of that fifth-dimensional sauce left and I had an idea! It went straight on my roast which is slow cooking as I write this review. The house is filled with such a wonderful smell and there is going to be some serious carnivorous things happening in here soon! Wingo's should patent and bottle the Mombo to sell to District residents traveling abroad! People will take one taste and give the District Statehood! read more

BEST CHICKEN WINGS I'VE EVER HAD IN MY ENTIRE LIFE. Seriously, this place is the BEST! They don't even have a restaurant. It's a carryout only place and SUPER casual. You place your order at the front, specifying the type of chicken, with bones or boneless, and the dipping sauce. I ordered the spicy garlic wings (10 of them), while my fiancé ordered the honey bbq (10 of them as well). We both ordered ranch sauce with it, but they honestly don't even need sauce - they're ambrosial on their own! HOLY COW (or chicken, rather). Each one of those chicken wings were absolutely divine. I ate every single last one, despite being very full! The spicy garlic was absolutely perfect. This place is conveniently located on Wisconsin Ave in Georgetown and I am jealous of everyone living near there. If I lived close by, I'd be getting Wingo's to go at least twice a week!! You place your order and either wait outside on a bench or you can walk around (generally takes around 10-15 minutes for your food to be ready). We opted to walk to a bookstore nearby while we waited. Oh. My. God. The best wings ever. I'm not even kidding. This place is extraordinary. Heaven! read more

Two and a half stars. Delivery time was a touch long, but there were good-sized wings. Mambo sauce was boring, but Bite Me had a decent kick; should've tried mango habanero, bourbon, or jalapeno lime. Fries were still kinda crispy since the sauced wings were isolated by a nest of foil. I'm intrigued by their fried cheese ravioli, southern fried chicken, chili cheese fries, and chicken pot pie, but a friend's food poisoning incident keeps me wary. read more

I ordered this thing called a 'wango tango' because it was a cheesecake, covered in a funnel cake and then deep-fried. Yessir. Someone actually thought to do something like that. I'm not sure what part of the process produced the effect, but the thing was pretty good. The cheesecake somehow got creamier and coupled with the crunchy, eggroll like cover, the textures were interesting. However, it took a long time to get to me. And the staff is, at best, neutral and maybe even a tad unprofessional. I know, I know, it's like penalizing an NYC street vendor for looking dirty, but still. Smile, man, life's not that bad. And the girl, I think, rolled her eyes when I asked her if she thought the wango tango was totally grando. Well, I didn't say it exactly like that, but you know what I mean. There is one table and two chairs and a bench right outside, so one could sit and enjoy their deep fried sweets. Also, they have this quirky thing where you can throw some beads that they provide into the tree branches above. Apparently, it's good luck. I guess. read more

The wings are good. The service , specifically from the large Asian man, keeps this from being a 5 star. Not once , not twice but all 3 times he is on another level. read more

This is about as good of a take-out wing experience as you can ask for in DC. The quality of the food is pretty great. The only discounting factors are that our food was a little cold and we were there early and had to wait for the order which didn't make a ton of sense. Also, while there are a ton of factors that make this place awesome, they weren't the best wings I've had. There are a lot of ways that this place wing place wins, parking is relatively easy on this part of O St, they give you a TON of options to make sure your wings are exactly how you like them, service was fast in our experience, it was cheap, and food was good. First, it's metered street parking on O Street and it's far enough off of M street that it was easier to park. We didn't have any trouble on a Sunday night during half time of the Redskins game. The seating outside is made of 3 small 2 seat tables, and there is no indoor seating. They have a small cash register area inside that's about the size of a closet and a walk-up order window. Our order was incredibly neatly packed which was awesome. I would feel comfortable picking up for a ton of people because of how nicely packaged everything was. Their website is pretty well designed. They have AWESOME ordering options. Focusing on wings first, you can choose all drumsticks, all flats, or a regular mix of the two and there is no difference in price. They also have boneless, but I don't know if they cost more. Next, you can choose if you want your wings extra crispy or regular, and choose if you'd like a regular amount of sauce, extra sauce, light sauce, or no sauce with no difference in price. They have a great variety of flavors and a ton of sides. We ordered a lot of wings for a group, we tried the hot, medium, mild, mango habanero, hot barbecue, and hot garlic wings. We tried both extra sauce and regular sauce combinations. The wings that had the regular sauce were dressed with a standard amount of sauce. The wings with extra sauce were swimming which would be great with fries. The sauces all in all were a few degrees milder than what you would get with the same name at Buffalo Wild Wings, with the same flavor, which I enjoyed. The barbeque sauce was Sweet Baby Ray's brand. We also tried the jalapeno poppers and the mozzarella sticks which were great standard fried bar food. Can't wait to go back. read more

Such a tiny place but WOW awesome wings. They are good size, and we tried multiple flavors - all good!! The fries are always pretty scrumptious as well. Decent prices. The fried desserts taste just like fried desserts, which is always a good thing in my book. read more

So I have worked in the area for a bit and had to try this place out. I was feeling lunchy and couldn't go too far from work so I called up to place my order for a a Wingo's Wing Mini Pack (six piece). I was advised in 5 mins it would be ready. I walked to the location paid ($10- its Georgetown)in one teeny, tiny entrace and went out to the window next door to pick up my order. Easy as 1-2-3. After taking a pic, I partook in the vittles. The seasoned fries weren't truly seasoned (in my mind I thought salt, pepper, and season salt or old bay) they were fresh and seemed hand cut. Most importantly they were good. I got the mild buffalo wings. They were ok. They weren't slimy, so they were cooked. They did not pair well with the buttermilk ranch dipping sauce I selected. Overall the experience was ok---doable, if you will. Tip: It's a walk up so call ahead. For owners throw in some wetnaps/handwipes for after wing consumption. read more

I've only had Wingos delivery. The service is prompt and they're really really friendly, which is a plus (they actually park and come into my apartment building, unlike half the delivery services who make me come down). The boneless spicy wings are tasty and the fries are tasty junky pleasurable bits. I'm sure the weight gain is excessive for the Georgetown students that live by this place. read more

Wingos is THE place to go for wings for Georgetown students. However, I wasn't much of a fan until that is, I tried the parmesan garlic wings. These wings are heavenly; they're crunchy and drenched in a buttery sauce. I really couldn't get enough of them (I ended up stealing 4 or 5 of my friend's batch of 10). I'll be going to Wingos just for the parmesan garlic wings. I've tried the other types (spicy, golden, bbq, etc) and they just don't match up. However, I hear the chili cheese fries are a must as well. Get 10% off when you check in on Yelp! read more

A nice hole-in-the-wall tucked away in a back part of Georgetown. On the outside there were four tables for two people, and several seats up against the store. Inside it's real homely inside with no seats on the inside. They also have a bird feeder next to two of the tables, which was a little off-putting to me. I went with my girlfriend and while I got the fried chicken sandwich, she got an order of ten wings and the fried ravioli. The fried ravioli was great. Crunchy on the outside and cheesy on the inside, the fried ravioli were great. I really enjoyed my chicken sandwich as well. It comes with a choice of four sauces: mild, mrdium, hot, and mambo. I got the hot sauce and it was like a tastier version of Tabasco. The breading with nice and crispy with good seasoning. The chicken on the inside was juicy as well. The sandwich was pretty big and was satisfying. I didn't think it was worth it to get fries and a drink for an extra $3. My girlfriend was a little disappointed with her wings. Nice and crunchy on the outisde, but the meat on the smaller drumsticks were a little tough from being fried a little too long. Her lemon-pepper wings were a tad salty, but the mambo wing sauce was great. Think Asian zing from Buffalo Wild Wings, but less artificial. Overall I'd give it a solid 4 stars for my experience. I'd like to come back again for more delicious goodness like their fried cheesecake read more

One truism comes to mind when eating chicken wings: the best flavors and seasonings cannot make up for low quality meat. Wingo's in Georgetown has some amazing flavors, but we ended up plucking off sizable bits of fat. When it comes to food, Ms. Classy and I are extremely compatible. Not to mean we love the same foods, but different parts of the same food. For example, I love the green and yellow Skittles, she loves the red and purple ones. When eating chicken wings, I love the drumettes and she loves the wingettes, and so on. At Wingo's, you can specify if you want wingettes or drumettes. Unfortunately, we chose the busiest 'wing' day of the year (Super Bowl Sunday) and due to the volume of orders, they couldn't provide that service. We ordered 30 wings: 10 garlic parmesan, 10 lemon pepper, and 10 barbecue. I called in my order before heading out because I was expecting a minimum of half an hour before they'd be ready, but the friendly order-taker said they'd be ready in 15 minutes so I threw down the phone and sped away. Was it good? Well, I'll break down the good, the bad, and the greasy: The Good: The Lemon Pepper wings were the best. The wings were crispy and the taste of the peppery spiciness and the citrus tang came through beautifully. Ms. Classy started with these wings, but quickly switched to the barbecue so she could save the best for last. I've had Lemon Pepper Wings at other joints, and they tasted like 'salty wings,' 'pepper wings,' or 'fried nothing' wings. This was a very good flavor to choose. The Bad: The quality of the chicken. When we opened the packages, I gasped with joy at the size of the drumettes. They were the most plump drumettes I've ever laid eyes upon. But bigger isn't necessarily better. A significant amount of the size came from fat and gristle. I had to tear sizable hunks off most pieces. Ms. Classy had to pluck pieces of fat from the wingettes, but none nearly the size of the gobs attached to the drumettes. The Greasy: If you expand the picture, you can see the pool of garlic butter at the bottom of the container of wings on the right side. The Garlic Parmesan Wings were literally bathing in garlic butter. No one can criticize these wings for lacking flavor, but expect a garlic punch in the mouth and be mindful of a dripping mixture of melted butter and chicken grease when removing the wings from the container. If you're into garlic buttery greasiness, you will love them. Will we go again? No. Though their prices are nice and cheap, we found the wings overly gristly and greasy. I know plenty of people who love fatty wings just fine, but it's not for us. -someone of the male gender who doesn't like to spend money on things read more

Mediocre wings and not a big variety of sauces. We took out wigs and walked to the waterfront to find a spot there. I got 10, half hot and half garlic and asked them to be wet. When I opened the box, I found the wings far from wet. There were no extra sauce and the wings tasted very mediocre. They were not either crispy nor wet. The garlic sauce didnt taste anything like garlic. The seasoned fries were meh and not seasoned. What I liked was the way they wrapped them in aluminum foil, so it kept hot. However, i'm not gonna go back again. read more

This has been on my list to try for awhile and FINALLY I got to try it out. I was not disappointed. The spot is small so you literally come in and order right at the door. The staff was working really hard but no one ignored me despite how busy they were. It was Saturday night & they had a lot of deliveries. Since I already knew what I wanted I just glanced over the menu. Unfortunately I wasn't as hungry as I wanted to be because I had a big meal earlier, but I still ordered just 10 wings. I got Parmesan Garlic & Hot Garlic wings. They were so delicious. Fried to perfection & they didn't skimp on the sauce. I also order puff daddys which are like fried dough balls that came with powdered sugar. Those were good, a bit too much salt in the batter but maybe it was just that batch of batter. I can't wait to go back, a great gem in the city. read more

So... This is by far a staple in my book. Wingo's is definitely a college favorite, being situated just blocks away from Georgetown University. This place has a constant flow of traffic, and it's because the food is consistently good. I'm a regular on wednesdays when they run a half off special on the entire menu. (Tip: you need to check the website or facebook page in order to get the code word for the discount). This place always gets my order right and the staff is always apologetic if it takes longer than expected to complete the order. read more

My friend and I have been craving wings for weeks. We had planned to stop in Wingo's but since there was no seating, we kept putting off a visit. Then we found out that they have a great delivery area and decided to order a bunch of wings while working on a Sunday. It was one of the best professional decisions I have ever made. We ordered online, which was really easy. We got two personal orders ($10.99) of wings, which each included 10 wings. We choose to have BBQ Honey and Medium wings. Thanks to another reviewer, we found out that you can order all flats for the same price, which is the greatest thing ever!! The personal order also came with a ton of ranch or bleu cheese, and there was quite a bit of meat on each wing. I really enjoyed the medium wings. The flavor was great. The BBQ honey were very thick and rich, but I just like spicy wings better than BBQ. The delivery fee was only $3, the delivery took a little over an hour, and our driver was efficient even in the rain. We will totally order from here again soon. read more

Props galore to wingos. Favorite delivery indulgence. Best newly discovered menu items: Mediterranean salad and hot wings. Tried and true: brisket sammich, tuna sammich, burgers, chicken tenders with honey mustard (best ever), potato skins, and milkshakes... Today I appreciated the extra care they took to properly package everything. Keep up the terrific work, wingos! read more

Very friendly guy mike (i guess the owner) gave me a call when he knew that i was not satisfied with the first time i ordered from wingos. He credited me $20 to give it another try. Fortunately, the second time i ordered, the wings tasted way better and were so well done. I can now say that they make real good Mango habanero sauce wings! M glad i gave this place another chance. Thanx Mike! No wonder the place is popular . I am so impressed by their courteous behavior. They really made sure that nothing goes wrong with the order and followed the instructions on my order carefully They even called me to make sure if i liked my wings this time. Took great care to deliver their best! read more

Nothing like dipping your fries in teriyaki wing sauce and ranch sauce before eating. Also don't leave without a wango tango for desert!

Mm mm good! We were in Georgetown on Black Friday and naturally worked up an appetite while shopping. Happened to stumble upon Wingo's and noticed that for what appeared to be a small business, there were a lot of patrons seemingly enjoying their food at curbside tables. After some quick Yelp investigation, we decided to give these wings a try. Boy, were we glad we did! The food came out very fast and fresh, and the wings were CRISPY! Nothing worse than wings that have gone soggy. We ordered 20 wings-- 10 honey hot and 10 Bourbon-- with a side of seasoned fries. Yum yum yum! The bourbon were definitely my fave. Super crispy and sticky and sweet, I could've eaten that sauce on a piece of cardboard, lol. The honey hot was also good, but with a thinner sauce, so the wings weren't as crispy as the bourbon. While we were outside eating, one of the workers came out and brought each table a sample of a new flavor of their wings! The sample had five wings! How generous! I'm not sure I've experienced that before. The best thing about this place besides the fast and great service was that it was AFFORDABLE! The 20 wings, fries, and two drinks only cost $27. You couldn't ask for that price at bland WingStop. Definitely will be back the next time I'm in the area for some of those delicious bourbon wings. read more

Wings were decent and burger was hefty. Fries were nice and hot. For fast food it was good. A few seats outside. Primarily carry out.

This place is really small, the inside only fits one person, so you have either sit outside or get it to go. We were able seat 10 people outside. We ordered lemon pepper, salt and pepper, Parmesan, mild, hot honey wings. We also ordered fries and cheese fries. The wangz were amazing, crispy and seasoned perfectly. The lemon pepper and salt and pepper tasted about the same. Parmesan wings had actual Parmesan on them, they added an unique texture to the wings. Mild wasn't actually spicy, it was more like barbecue sauce. The fries weren't very crispy when I ate it, but then again I ate them a while after they came out. The service was amazing, they helped us move and dry the tables and chairs. They gave us a generous amount of sauce and napkins. Also they played good music. Definitely check this place out if you want some big wangz read more

Best chicken strips of all time. Hands down, no contest. OMFG. We order them by the tray. BF has Ubered into the District at like 11PM after work in his PJs for the sole purpose of eating the chicken strips Beth L. and I ordered while watching terrible movies and drinking some random Saturday night. Also, they deliver fucking milkshakes. MILKSHAKES. Good milkshakes at that. Milkshake delivery is a game changer. Next level would be homemade honey mustard dipping sauce (I know you are capable of this, you guys). Dear god PLEASE deliver these over the river. I need Wingos to send a milkshake and chicken strips to my Alexandria door. read more

We got two combo meals. I tried the naked chicken sandwich and hubby tried the 8 wing special. My sandwich was bland, as expected, and dry. Def wouldn't recommend swaying from their wings. The wings we tried were garlic parmesan and honey bbq. I liked the honey bbq better! The garlic parm, although less salty than most places, is bland and lacks alot of flavor. The wings are kind of dry too :( Seasoned fries are good though! read more

Stopped here on a search for boneless wings after the closure of Wings Over. Flavor was tasty and you got good value for your money, though the heat scale was a little on the mild side. I ordered the Honey Bar-B-Q, which granted didn't seem like it should be spicy, but was listed right below mango habanero... Limited seating outside the store, so probably best off ordering delivery or takeout if you're nearby, but a tasty spot to get your wing fix. read more

Oh wingo's is just amazing .... I often come here since is a local restaurant and I grew up in NW so I been coming here for a couple years now . The owner of wingo' s is a very cool person he definitely know how to make you feel like home. This is one of a few places where I could find a funnel cake . Which is very good. I really like their hot dogs and and wings. The dressing is very unique and delicous. Overall the service is good, well recommend read more

Still the best wing spot in town! I just left & I couldn't even make it home, I had to devour them in the car. Thank you I love Wingo's. They definitely give wing-stop a run for their money. I took my family here yesterday to get the full experience because I always bring the wings home. It started off rocky because a guy named Simba was being extremely rude towards us on the phone but that was soon resolved by the manager/owner when we arrived. I enjoyed everything. From the Fried strawberry cheesecake, which was Delicious to the Apple pie milkshake that I get it every time, it's soooo good. I got the 10 piece wings, with seasoned fries. Half hot lemon pepper & half hot garlic Parmesan! Extremely tasty. I love, love their Kens Ranches. It doesn't hurt to purchase extra if you're a ranch lover like me. Bae got the boneless wings with onion rings. She got lemon peppers and hot. She loved them Our daughter got 3 tenders with seasoned fries & ranch. She enjoyed it. I smothered her tenders in my sauces because she wanted them flavored. She enjoy her meal too. You know we'll be returning. Exquisite customer service & Great food = Repeat Customers Thank You read more

The bad, hard to find parking and due to a number of delivery orders, it can be slow. The good their Buffalo Fried Chicken Sandwich. This is one of my favorites items from their menu.

I ordered delivery and I got BBQ hot wings with fries and a drink. The fries were nothing special and there was a lot of sauce on the wings that there was a pool of liquid dripping off. It was not that hot and honestly I think I like the wings at papa johns better. But they do have good deals on wings so maybe I will order here again. read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. This place is our go-to delivery place. Whenever we get home from a long trip we order Wingos for dinner when we return; it's like a warm hug! Usually order: boneless - honey mustard, medium, honey bbq, bourbon fries - small (plenty for 2 with leftovers) Have tried: mashed potatoes and gravy - yummy corn on the cob - found it soggy, don't get homemade ice cream - really creamy and delicious el pollo chicken sandwich - good but needed a tad more salt but i love salt! burger - tasty Thanks Wingos for being such a constant in our food lives. You sustain us! read more

It's a great hidden spot!! They're wings are amazing. We got the boneless wings and buffalo chicken sandwich and both were so delicious. The place is a hole in the wall which makes it better. Seating outside is very limited but its ok because its worth staying and waiting for a seat to open up outside. We got to meet a very nice gentleman at restaurant and when we back home that night, we saw him pulling in also and asked him if he worked at Wingo's and he said yes and that he was the owner. WOW! Kind of cool to know that. Highly recommend this place!! read more

Three stars because the wings that I received were above-average for a carry out but the wings that I received also did not taste like the flavor i ordered which was hot honey when in all honesty the wings tasted like buffalo barbecue sauce with a drop of Honey flavor the fries were delicious just like the reviews said that they were but then the Wango Tango that I received fell very short the dessert was cold and the fried shell was very Bland was lacking flavor and the cheesecake was Bland as well only thing that made it pop was piling a mountain of powdered sugar on top read more

Those batter dipped french fries. Diet? What diet... when french fries are as good as these a diet is frivolous. The wings? Amazing. The I got them salt and pepper with sauces on the side. I like my wings crispy and then dipped into the sauces. I got the mambo sauce and the hot sauce. The mambo sauce was out of this world. The hot sauce was pretty ordinary. Service? For a hole in the wall restaurant it was pretty impressive. I am glad to have been able to finally try it. read more

Wingo's was one of my favorite places to get delivery from in college. I ordered it recently to see if I still liked it and was pleasantly surprised to find that they are every bit as good now as they were back then. They are one of the best places in the city for fried, late-night "junk food". I use the word "junk" only because most of the food is deep fried or slathered in sauce, but the ingredients are actually pretty high quality. Plus, the food is cooked and flavored well. Even though it's battered and fried, it never feels greasy or heavy. My roommate and I shared a delivery order of chicken tenders, mashed potatoes with gravy, jalapeno poppers, and mini corn dogs. The food was hot, delicious, and arrived right on schedule. Their chicken tenders are really good. The chicken is good quality and the batter is tasty with a delightfully crunchy texture. We also loved the corn dogs and the mashed potatoes. We were least impressed with the jalapeno poppers. The jalapenos were sort of pickled, so the whole thing was kind of sour. I don't eat a lot of jalapeno poppers, so maybe that's the way they're supposed to be? Anyway, all things considered, we highly enjoyed our fried feast and would order again! read more

Their wings were cool. I placed an order for delivery and it took over an hour to arrive. We were told delivery would take 30-45 minutes. I called back 2 times to follow up and they stopped taking my call. Once the food arrived it was nice and hot. Pretty standard wing sauce. Nothing special, but it's cool if you need to grab something, late. read more

Wingo's - Mango habanero boneless wings. - American Near Me - Washington, DC, District of Columbia

A small shack that serves delicious wings in Georgetown. No seating but Georgetown BID left a few tables/chairs outside on the sidewalk. If with friends, I usually go for the bucket (50 wings for $49). Boneless wings are sold for the same price and I always prefer boneless wings! They have many flavors among which my favorites are lemon pepper, garlic parmesan and salt &speller. I tried abusive among the very spicy flavors and although it was really spicy, I didn't feel like I needed a fire extinguisher. I would recommend this flavor for people who enjoy spicy food. read more

Wingos is quickly becoming my go to on any day/ any time. Their teriyaki boneless wings are amazing and the seasoned fries come in huge portions. The wings are super saucy. Also tried the club sandwich and was impressed, it was very filling. Don't be deceived by the small interior, the staff is friendly and food is ready quickly. Plus they are open really late and have a large menu!! If you are craving wings with a ton of flavor-- wingos is the place!! read more

We tried Wingos once more and it is was good. I'm not swooning over them for sure but I think they're decent and fit the bill for a good fix. We will probably order from there if you we craving some wings but I probably wouldn't go out of my way to head over to Georgetown for the wings. There is potential to add one more star so we'll def order again in the future and reassess! read more
