Wings To Go — Restaurant in Dover

I like to look for buffalo wings when I travel. Due to so many different seasonings, cooking methods, etc, wings vary all over the country. I stopped into Dover, DE to spend the night and found Wings To Go only a mile from the hotel. I decided to try this chain after reviewing their website. I arrived at the store. Immediately, one could tell the store is owned by someone that only wants to shovel this food out the door. Do not expect an experience. The restaurant looks like a mix between an old Chinese take-out restaurant and new decals the WTG chain sent this owner. The tiles were dirty, unkept, and the floor was not taken care of. Also, two of the only tables in the place were dirty with food, glass rings, and grease. Also, the windows were not cleaned in months. I was not impressed. However, I was hoping the wings would make up for it. I always give places the benefit of the doubt and heck, I ate bat in the Philippines at an outdoor market so restaurant condition is usually second on my list.

I stepped to the counter, ordered the "garbage fries" which was on the chain website and the owner said they did not sell them. Ugh. So, I shifted gears and decided to only go with wings. I ordered the traditional "Hot" wings and looked for the 18-count wings advertised on the website. The owner said they did not sell that quantity either. Two strikes. The owner asked me if I wanted celery and dressing. Well of course!

So, I watched the owner take my order and step into the kitchen to make the wings. Unfortunately, the owner bounced back between taking orders and handling money with three different customers while I waited for my food. Handling money and making food is a no-no. He did not wash hands in between. Still I hoped for the best wings in the world.

So once the owner laid my deep fried wings into the styrofoam container I witnessed a terrible practice. The owner just squirted sauce from the gallon wing sauce container on the wings. He did not drain the wings first or toss the wings in the sauce. The result was a greasy over-sauced container of soup that held my wings. Miserable. Miserable. Miserable.

The wings are smaller sized wings and their preparation methods do not make this place a go-to place to buy wings. I would head down the street to BW3s. Also, beware, whatever is on the company's website is not what is advertised in their store. Also, everything in the store, minus the celery sticks is fried. Everything. No sandwiches, no chips. Everything fried. However, with a few changes in preparation and sanitation, this place...

This was my first time visiting Wings To Go. We ordered traditional and boneless wings. I really like that you have a wide variety of different sauces to choose from. In my opinion, the taste of the sauce was a bit more appealing to me than the taste of the wings. Now don't get me wrong the wings are decent enough but I have had better. Which was surprising because this establishment is a bit pricey. Also as a first timer I had no idea I needed to place my order so quickly! My adult 20 something son said to me when placing an order from this establishment you'll make out better if you order like you're "spitting out a rhyme or you'll run out of time." Also no one else was in this store but myself, so why the quick rush for me to place my order? For that reason I will not visit again I need to feel comfortable when patronizing...

This has been my mom's favorite place for I know 20 yrs or more. Everytime we come to Delaware my mother wanted wings from Wings to Go. In the last several years the service has been terrible but my mom was fond of the owner and would say if the lady is working she would do me right. Well Saturday we were in town for a funeral and we stopped again. My mom said there's no people in here the business has gone down tremendously. She was accurate we placed an order for 50 wings with extra sauce. Back in the day they used to give buckets but no longer. This was fine. But the "lady" came in and my mom said that's her she got us. Boy was she wrong. The wings were not hot in flavor, we ordered hot, xhot, and suicide. No extra sauce. The wings were super dry. We...
