| - Ah, such mixed feelings about Wing Time. So many good things, but some not-so-good things that keep me from going back as much as I might.
THE GOOD:
*Really tasty wings and sauces
*Excellent fries, especially the sweet potato fries
*Good variety
*Nice, clean and comfortable seating area
*Friendly employees
*They have Diet Dr. Pepper (the drink of the gods!!)
THE NOT-SO-GOOD:
*Pretty high prices. You do get a lot of food in a combo, but I still feel paying $10+ for a fast-food type meal is getting pretty steep.
*Confusing menu. After you go a few times, it's a little easier... but I appreciate a good straight forward menu that's easy to read and understand. Wing Time's is not that.
*The owner is extremely chatty. Ok yeah, that might seem like a good thing.... and trust me, I do appreciate that he tries to be personable... but there's a line between being friendly and being annoying, and he definitely crossed that with us on our first visit. We had a hard time figuring out what to order (see point above) and he kept trying to "help" us with his suggestions, but it was just making us feel more confused. We kept telling him we just needed a minute to think, and he wouldn't leave us alone. Then when we finally ordered and got our food, he would not stop coming back to our table to talk about all the other businesses he's owned, all the great ideas he has, etc. We just wanted to eat our wings, dangit! Leave us alone! I have gone back a couple times since then and I was so relieved he wasn't around. We got to eat our meals in peace!
So, overall, I think WingTime is a solid 4-stars. If you're searching for some tasty wings and fries you should definitely give them a try. I would go back more often myself (even with the over zealous owner) if the prices were just a touch better.
