The Local

By far the best wings in Atlanta, and that's a hill I'm willing to die on. The meat nearly falls off the bone. Their sauces and dry rubs are mouth-wateringly delicious. Literally all of their sides are perfect accompaniments to however you get your wings. The cocktails leave a little to be desired when it comes to flavor, but they pour heavy and quickly. Make sure you get there as soon as they open, though - they're almost always slammed, the parking's guaranteed to be full and I've seen them run out of wings as early as 6:30pm on a Thursday. Totally worth eating yourself into a wing food coma at 5pm.

Man I can't explain the food. 1st off the food was absolutely amazing . The okra is what caught my eyes and them smoked fried wings. Omg can you say so good hot fresh food. The waitress made sure I had the drink that suited me. The service was definitely exceptional.The cook was so friendly he came out and made sure the food he served was amazing for every item he served out. I will most definitely be visiting back out. Everyone was most definitely friendly and kept asking was we alright.

The Local is 21+, so make sure you have your ID! We had a group of 4 people at 6:00 pm on a Saturday and were seated right away. Service was great! Here’s what we got: - Basket of 10 Wings ($14): WOW. I get the hype. We tried the Korean BBQ, Buffalo, and Korean Buffalo, all of which were great. I didn’t taste much of a difference between the Korean BBQ and Korean Buffalo though. The meat fell off the bone, it was so tender. But the outside had a good crispiness to it. These were the best wings I’ve ever had. - Half Order of Spicy Boiled Peanuts ($3): Tasty! - Basket of French Fries ($5): Delicious. Crunchy on the outside. - Basket of Tater Tots ($5): Amazing. Perfectly crunchy on the outside. 10 wings for $14 is a great deal, especially for how delicious they were. Also, well drinks are so cheap!! I got a whiskey coke for $5, with tax!! I can’t wait to go back.

The Local is officially my new obsession! This is the first bar I’ve been to since the pandemic began. No physical menus but no compromise on fun! The atmosphere was calm/chill. Much needed. We met some friends here and lost track of hours. The drinks were on point! From whiskey sours, amaretto sours, beer, shots and more we were grounded for a while. Lol. The food was quality and super affordable. The waitstaff was phenomenal! They swiftly collected glassware and replenished food regularly. The music made it a relaxing place to catch up with friends. I love this bar and can’t wait for my next visit! #ashsaidit
