Very nice place to go out to have some wings.
I've been going to Wings, etc for about 5 years now. Â When the economy was really bad, this place was dead. Â Recently it's been really getting busy, which is good for them.
Anyway, the wings are very good. Â They have a big schooner beer that is a good value. Â And actually, there burgers are pretty good too.
My absolute favorite thing about this place is there wait staff. Â Always friendly and always happy.
If you like wings and don't particularly like Buffalo Wild Wings, this is the place for you.
Aside from the first experience, our time at Wings, Etc. was great!
The food and drinks are abundant, and the wait staff is generally well-tuned to your needs. Except for the first time that we had met some of our friends here, which happened to be a bad experience, I will come here again. The waitress didn't stop by our table all to much (then again, it was a Friday night and I'll give her the benefit of the doubt), and the bartender made a mixed drink that apparently lacked alcohol for one of our friends who frequents this restaurant every Friday.
I got the Medium wings, but I think I can go up a little bit on the heat. That's just a fun experimentation on my part!
All I can say is wow!!!! After the last two terrible times at BWW I read the reviews and they were right.  Service from Dana was great..she knew her stuff and recomened the perfect flovors of wings.  She took her time and was very friendly.  I will tell all I know about this place and now me and my girlfriend will be  regulars.  Yelp really hit it on the head about this place..BRAVO to Wings ect and thanks for great service.  Fried pickle spears were great .  They are in Crytal Lake and ask for Dana she is a great server.....
Review Source:I'm very happy with this wing shack!! Â Almost every time Ive eaten here I have left satisfied. Â Most everything seems fresh cooked and they always have a drink special. Â Ive only had one meal there that wasn't very good, wing sauce wasn't quite right. Â Staff is very nice and the wing sauces are unique.
Review Source:Simple wings...no muss, no fuss!
Great for grabbing wings to go etc if you're in the mood. Â This place is a simple sports bar with a simple menu and definitely a good place for Monday Night Football or the like.
Staffing has been friendly but a little bit understaffed and tired sometimes, so the service has been underwhelming.
I can,t really give a glowing review but I would say there is plenty of different sauces to choose from and really there is a decent selection of domestic big brand beers.
No complaints... :)
As others have said, this place has some pretty good wings. Â My wife and I split an order of the 24 boneless wings. Â The chicken was juicy, and they had a nice crunchy breading. Â The wings prices are a bit pricey, but they're a decent size so you do get your moneys worth. Â
We also had the loaded fries (cheese, sour cream, and bacon) which was a big let down. Â The fries were soggy, and the sour cream wasn't quite right. Â
They have three large TV's and the music is cranked up, but not obnoxiously loud. Â Warning, the music isn't kid safe, so families be warned.
Overall this is a nice spot, we'll definitely be back!
Good place to watch sports. But the wings are too overpriced. While they are juicy and crispy, the sauces we tried were not the best, and they were very small. Bdubs is a much better deal, and I love their Mild sauce much, much better. We did not like the garlic & parmesan sauce at all. Would not come here again, we will be sticking with bdubs.
Review Source:Where to start....well the Poppers were actually good and didn't taste like they were freezer burnt - which is always nice. Â So what about the wings...to be honest they were pretty good. Â We ordered 12 Buffalo (Mild) and 12 of the Tangy/Sweet. Â The buffalo sauce and wings were okay nothing great or special. Â The Tangy/Sweet one's were actually very good. Â
The 24 pieces of wings showed up with only two lousy pieces of celery (no carrots), so either the cooks can't count or this place is super cheap.  Aside from the wings, the service was adequate.  There are lots of plasma big screen TVs but not one of them had the sound on so you could enjoy the games.  I guess that would be normal if there was music in the background  being played but there was no music. Â
The whole experience leaves you feeling like WTF...the only thing you hear is people ordering or chewing! Â So our bill was $40 bucks for 24 wings, one order of poppers, a single coke and two large draft beer (Coors). Â The best thing about this place was the BEER...it was COLD...just as one would hope. Â
We would have given this place 1.5 stars but Yelp doesn't allow it. Â One stars would be unfair - maybe it was a bad day for the crew, so they get two stars. Â The general ambiance of the place is actually very cool and it could be a fun place to watch a game, drink some beer and eye ball the fairer sex. Â Â
Oh one more thing...don't bother parking in front of the place (facing route 14) the only entrance is in the back of the restaurant, so park there. Â They may want to put some arrow in the windows showing people where the hell they need to go, to even get into the place. Â
Yep...another lack luster dinning experience in McHenry County.
I love wings and this place has the best ones in the area.
I have tried many of their sauces and the Wall is certainly good and hot (and it still has flavor)! I haven't tried to get my pic on the wall because that is a lot of food to eat (I think it's 16 wings)!
The cajun fried are awesome. My wife always gets the nachos and the portion is HUGE! The ONLY thing that BWW has that is better is their Mango Habanero sauce...other than that Wings Etc. is better hands down!
If you like wings, this is your place!
We come here often. I prefer Wings Etc over any of the other wing getting places in the area.
The wings here are much larger than an often abbreviated competitor. Maybe twice the size.. and better quality too!
My typical order is the 10 traditional wings hot and a side of the curly cajun fries and a side of the TNT sauce. The wife always does the tweener boneless wings.
The TNT sauce is great for dipping the fries in.
The atmospehere is your typical sports bar type place.. some tv's with sports on them.
If you are a wing lover or even just a liker... you should check this place out. I have never left dissapointed or hungry.
Oh.. And the staff is usually pretty friendly too.
I don't know what took us so long to check this place out but I'm sure glad we did.
We finally went in on Saturday night and boy, we've been missing out. Â By far bigger and better wings then BWW and about the same selection of sauces too. Â
Plenty of TV's so you won't miss anything. Â I like how the booths are on an angle too! Â Great selection of food, great service what more could you ask for?!!?
We were looking for somewhere other than the main chains to have some food and drinks for the Bulls game and we found ourselves here. Â Man, am I glad we made that decision. Â It's tucked away in a small strip mall right by the large BWW's so I don't think a lot of people know about this place but they should.
Their wings were delicious, larger than most other places and very tender. Â I really like how both the bone and boneless wings are the same price when pretty much everyone else charges you more for boneless. Â They don't have the number of sauces BWW has, but they pretty much cover all the same flavors and spices.
They also have a pretty large menu for things aside from wings. Â They had burgers, chicken sandwiches, pulled pork sandwiches, dogs, pizza, wraps, salads, and plenty of appetizers. Â I tried their Prime Rib Philly wrap and it was amazing, the prime rib was cooked perfectly!
They have lots of different beers on tap too and the service was pretty good I thought for how busy they were. Â It's not a very large place and it fills up fast so I would get there early if you're going for a sports game. Â Although, I would recommend it for any night of the week!
Great place! Â I've driven by here dozens of times and never tried their wings until last night. Â They are fantastic! Huge, juicy, tender wings. I had their medium heat buffalo sauce and tried both boneless and regular. These are some of the best wings I've ever had. Â
Huge schooners of ice cold beer to wash down the wings too.
I'm a fan and will be back!
They happened to be running a 39 cent wing special and 3.95 schooner of beer special this week.
We have eaten here a few times & we have found that we enjoy it more every time. Â In my opinion, this is a step up from Bdubs. Â
The Chili here is my all time fav!! Â I always order some of their wings, with a couple of their unique sauces. Â They have a huuuuge menu. You can order a Homewrecker hot dog, BBQ pulled pork sandwich, buffalo Chicken wrap and a ton of other options.
This is definitely hidden in a strip mall and very close to Bdubs, so it doesn't get the attention it deserves. Â If you give it a try, I am sure it will become one of your favorite wings stops!
A very poor man's alternative to a good wings place. Â A hint for management: buffalo wings are not simply fried chicken wings dipped in sauce. Â They are DEFINITELY not simply fried chicken wings with sauce poured over them. Â
The Wall Traditional wings were certainly spicy. Â They were also wet. Â As in, completely soggy at the bottom. Â If I had wanted chicken soup, I'd have asked for it. Â At least the service was good -- our waitress was very attentive.
I went with some friends as part of a goodbye party. Â The friend we said goodbye to, I hope to see again soon. Â Wings, Etc.? Â Not so much.
Franchise sports bar that's new to the area....they opened just before football season started I think, or some date that coincided with the football season.
1st time we went, it was okay.
2nd time we got some takeout wings and when we got them home there was not sauce on them. Ugh.
They say third time's a charm...but....no. The waitress spent most of ther time in the back loitering around the drink station talking to her friends. I could tell because we could see them standing there. I asked for diet soda, it was totally flat. I got a second one, still not great. The girl admitted they were pouring the drinks out of 2-liters. Somone suggested to me that maybe they aren't getting their bills paid and maybe Pepsi is not providing them with syrups and stuff. Who knows. Anyway, the kicker is we had 20 wings, a garlic bread appetizer, and a chicken salad with three drinks.....$30!?!?!? WTF over?
They bill this place as a family sports bar...and it kind of is, except for the family part. Plenty of cigarette smoke floating by and guys in pick up trucks with t-shirts advertising country music. Music was strange too, including Danzig, some rap stuff, and plenty of twangy droning stuff too.
