| - I've been a Wacky Wings customer for at least half a decade now. It's a huge space that's split 50/50 between a sports bar and a pool hall. Theres even a mini arcade as well as an overflow dining area with smaller TVs for when it gets extra busy. To give you some sense of scale, this overflow dining area is bigger than most restaurants!
I most frequently come here to play pool, which if it hasn't changed, is half price before 5pm. Last I checked, it was $12/hr, but they may have raised it to $14. Pricey. The layout is good though - the lighting is perfect, and the table spacing is adequate enough that you won't be hitting other people. Each table has some sort of seating - either at a table or a countertop so that you can chill and watch the numerous TVs and even have a meal. They have full waiter service in the pool section.
That's the pool side.
I'm less familiar with the sports bar/dining section. I rarely eat here because the times that I did, it was just standard, nondescript bar food. They try to put interesting twists on items though, which I appreciate. I recently had their loaded wings, which was a set of 8 boneless wings with some toppings, interestingly plated and served on an iron skillet. These were solid in terms of creativity, but overall quality wasn't the greatest.
Their namesake dish, the wings, are definitely the more popular option here. They have at least 50 flavours, many of which are unique and interesting. Their hottest wing flavour, Devil's Inferno, is one of the hottest wings I've ever tasted in my life. On Wednesdays, they have AYCE night, where you can get AYCE wings for $19 with the purchase of a drink. With the drink, this'll end up being about $25, which is likely more than you'd pay for a night out eating wings anyway... So I'm not sure it's worth it, but regardless, I hear it's packed every week.
Drink wise, they don't serve pitchers. In their place, they serve 80oz towers of beer. These are huge and are good for 5 full pints. Their beers are reasonably priced and are sold in this 80oz format as well as 16oz and 32oz.
The TVs here are a huge draw. They have a massive projector screen surrounded by like 10 TVs on the main wall, and there are TVs scattered everywhere else in the venue. A screen will be within view from every square inch in this building.
Service wise, things are okay. Beers took a little long to arrive considering all they were doing was pouring... But it's not too bad. Food came in a reasonable time. One incident that bothered me is that the first time I ordered Devil's Inferno wings, they served it without tossing them in the sauce. The wings are considerably hotter with the sauce, so we complained and got the sauce on the side. However, had I not been with someone who had already had the flavour before, we would never have known as this was not disclosed to us. Another thing that bothered me is the lag between some of the screens. Watching the TFC playoff game yesterday, some TVs were ahead of others by about a second. I was watching the late TV and noticed when hundreds of people were cheering on a goal before me. So service wise, Wacky Wings is passable but could definitely be improved.
Overall, Wacky Wings is solid in the aspects that are most important. They have screens everywhere, the pool area is fantastic, and the food is good enough. It's no surprise how popular they are for a night out.
