| - Wing kings of Vegas? Best place I've been to by far!
Buffalo wings are my favorite food in the world. My favorite thing to do on a day off is to go to my favorite wing place, watch some fights, and eat wings until I'm stuffed. This made living in Vegas very tough, seeing as I couldn't find one wing place that was up to par. Ever since I moved here in 2014, I've tried every place I've come across; and the best I found was Buffalo Wild Wings. Sad.
I came home from a trip back east today, after a weekend long wing binge at my #1 wing spot in America, and before I could feel the withdrawals set in; I happened to drive past wing time. The great yelp reviews and the detailed menu explanations of every wing flavor on the yelp menu (nowhere else does this) lured me in right away.
But anyway, let's cut right to the chase. The girl working the counter was very friendly and helpful, and I could tell she was a wing enthusiast herself as she was passionate about the menu and gave me some tips on what to order. I went with a few of the $11.99 combos (2 giant fingers, 6 wings, fries, Texas toast, and a drink). This combo was quite filling and I couldn't finish two. Another thing I liked about this combo was that it allowed me to try three different flavors; which I was really excited about.
The first thing I noticed was that I liked the wings much more than the tenders. The tenders were a bit hard and not nearly as saucy as I would have liked. I'm not sure if this was a one time thing or if it's the norm, but it's not much of a problem, it's just hard for me to say if I got a fair shake on actually trying the flavors I got in finger form. An extra side of hot garlic fixed everything though, so I'm not complaining.
The wing quality was very good. Meaty enough, crispy enough, cooked all the way through. Very nice. So let's talk about the flavors.
Hot garlic - more sweet than hot. Just a very slight kick to it if any. My 6 year old daughter said it was too spicy, my girlfriend who isn't a fan of anything too spicy said it was just right. Me, I love heat, but I'm a sucker for a sweet sauce. I'd say it's maybe 70/30 sweet to heat. I'd also say it's one of the best wing flavors I've had anywhere. The hot garlic alone instantly made this my #1 wing place in Vegas. Love at first bite.
Tropical habanero - another very good sauce. I loved the sweet, tropical taste here and it was a great combination with the hint of habanero. Also, another flavor that's way more sweet than heat. I'm gonna have to say that the flavor was 80% pineapple 20% habanero, and the habanero was just for flavoring, not for kick. My 6 year old daughter loved it and ended up getting a side of those sauce to dip her toast in. She detected no spice. Still a great wing flavor, and one I'll be coming back for.
Lemon pepper - my daughter's favorite flavor. We've ordered lemon pepper wings all over the country, and I'm gonna have to say that Wing Time's are easily top 2 if not #1. We were all very very happy with their version of the lemon pepper.
The next flavors I ordered as fingers, not wings. Again, I didn't get the same amount of sauce/chicken ratio this time around so it's a bit harder to rate these sauces but I'll give it a try.
Hot - good flavor hot sauce. Could have been hotter but I liked the taste. Next time I'll be giving them a try as a wing instead of finger.
Garlic Parmesan - hints of really good flavor, but really subtle. They just didn't put enough flavoring for me to give a fair judgment on it. It says it was a sauce, but to me it looked like a dry rub. I was really confused about that but I was too focused on enjoying my meal to ask which it was.
Louis and Ana - the garlic/butter flavor was really really good in some bites, but in other bites it was greatly overpowered by the Cajun flavoring. Not so crazy about the Cajun flavor so these were my least favorite. Still far from bad.
All in all, I was very very happy with this place. I purposely ordered enough to take home leftovers, so I'm happy to say that these fingers (with a side of hot magic, I mean garlic) will be my second dinner. After that, I might even go back tomorrow. Hats off to wing time and a special thanks to the helpful girl working the counter. This is my new favorite place in Vegas, and you can count on me being a regular. You stay classy, Wing Time. Thanks for being y
