Here is a quick review from Wings n’ Things in Huntington Beach from last month. Unfortunately I don’t have any pictures, but just imagine some wings along with some fries and you will pretty much have a picture of what we ate here. I ordered the 10 piece medium buffalo wings ($7.25) served with bleu cheese dressing; were spicy and not too hot, I probably should have got the next step up. Mrs. DanGarion ordered the 10 piece BBQ wings ($7.25) and they were slightly overcooked. Along with our wings we got a regular order of Curly Cue Fries ($2.25), they were great. Overall everything was average. The staff was really nice and checked on us as we ate our meal.
They have a bunch of other really tasty sounding items on their menu in addition to wings.
Visit 08/10/08 or 08/11/08 for dinner (can’t remember exact date).

I have lived in Huntington Beach since 1973 and I have never been so disappointed in a dining experience as I was tonight. The most atrocious excuse for chicken wings I have ever ate. We ordered the Garlic Wings with medium hot sauce and a 1/2 rack of baby backs,. The baby backs came first and they were covered in a bbq sauce that was overly vinegar tasting. Then came the wings. They looked and tasted as if they had been cooked hours earlier and kept under hot lights the whole time. They had little if any resemblance in taste to garlic with a hot sauce that also was overly vinegar tasting. The meat was so minuscule on the bone because it had basically turned to chicken jerky in whatever god forsaken process they used to cook them. And to add insult to injury for a paltry sum of approximately $34.00 for dinner for two, we were lavished with plastic cutlery and Styrofoam plates. The high point of the experience was our waitress who was down home and friendly. Upon checking out at the register the apparent owner, who had the personality of a wet noodle did not even look us in the eye as he stole our money. Only mumbling thank you at the end of the transaction. I would drive to Costa Mesa next time to Wingnuts if you want buffalo wings that are meaty, succulent and worthy of your ever shrinking dollar. I actually feel stupid and ripped off for having eaten at Buffalo Wings and Things.
