When I arrived in Atlanta and asked what the signature dish was I needed to try, the consensus was unanimous: lemon pepper wings. One of the places recommended was JR Crickets, and they did not disappoint. Both the dry and wet lemon peppers were amazing and had a great crisp to them. The ranch is a clutch companion with the intensity of the seasoning! I ordered takeaway and the food traveled well. Would recommend! 🍗

Wish I could leave 10 starts. First off I received stellar customer service so I had already walked out of the door feeling amazing and well served. Now for the food. My word the food was out of the world! I’m talking down to the ranch dressing and blue cheese. I ordered wings with shrimp, fries, and a side of onion rings. Best onion rings I’ve ever had by the way. I got 2 different flavors in my order of wings. Lord them dang wings was hitting. At some point I slowed down to see if I could figure out what seasonings they were using. Then that ranch sauce had a throw down wit the wings. I’m visiting family here but the food was so amazing I now dream of owning a JR. Crickets franchise. Only in Atlanta for a few days but I’ll definitely be back.

I was recommended the cascade drip and boy were they fantastic. The wings had a great crisp to them, they were tender and juicy. The sauce was good and sticky with a great balance of sweet and spicy. The fries were crinkle cut and fantastic as well. We asked for a drink that the bartender never heard of, but he was more than happy to improvise and mix us up something similar to what we asked for. My wife had the garlic Parmesan wings. They were a little bland on flavor, but still cooked well. I would not hesitate to go back and order the cascade drip wings again. They were excellent!

Went in after a show at The Fox. Despite the late hour, we got seated quickly. Our server was amazing. Very bubbly and attentive. One person in our group wanted a Bloody Mary, which isn't on the menu. However, she came back a few minutes later with one, so we appreciated that extra attention the staff gave to our group. Food was good, too.

The food was really fresh and delicious. After ordering it came out pretty fast for take out. This was my first time here and I will be returning

These wings are the best wings I’ve had since moving to Atlanta. I love that they are open til 2am, even on a Sunday night. They do have parking on site, however the lot can get full quickly. The inside is very lowkey, just a regular tuck shop/bar vibe. You seat yourself, and sometimes you order at the counter, sometimes there is a waitress, but there’s really no way to tell. The food is always oversalted, but other than that, it is great. Their ranch sauce is great. Note: they do NOT take phone orders anymore. They literally do not have a public phone number, and if you want to order takeout, you have to come in person to place it, and then wait.

Amazing!!
Best wings ever!!
Top notch service!
Best music!
Comfortable cool atmosphere, laid back and urban with comfort!
And they actually have parking!!
In the middle of downtown Atlanta!
You know that's unheard of!
And the homemade blue cheese makes the fresh celery sticks compete with these awesome wings!
I'm not a wings person usually
But due to the perfection of the crispiness and the seasoning and the freshness of their chicken, I think I have become one!!
I ordered a 10 piece to go, split medium hot buffalo and lemon pepper with extra celery sticks
I finished them in the truck and went back in and ordered a 20 piece plus 4 extra blue cheese cups to take home to my husband! They were truly that good!!
I'll be back!
Again and again!!😍
Thank you ladies, you are awesome!!
And chef's behind the scene, I didn't see you but you're doing the damn thing!!!
5 stars!! Easy!!
Thank you for the best lunch break I've had in years!!

It's an old dive restaurant with TVs well-placed throughout to watch sports. They are famous for their wings. Their food is good but I rate them high on value. For $20 I got 10 delicious lemon pepper wings, a piece of fried fish, and fries. Waitstaff was friendly and helpful.
I'd recommend them to any hungry person looking for relief from food inflation.

Everybody kept referring me to this place for some good fried fish, and it did not disappoint. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by this lady with amazing energy. Who helped me out right away. She told me what were the crowd favorites, and got my order right in. I got the turkey burger which was cooked perfectly, and the fried fish, which was cooked perfectly as well. And just the right amount of breading. Will definitely be coming back

So this was an interesting experience. Coming from Ontario I wasn’t sure what to expect at all. The environment, the service, the people were very interesting but mostly very kind.
Take in this review Is based off a 1am trip to the store on a Friday evening. I went with about 8 people most of whom got the dirty bird wings and apparently they’re incredible. I got the lemon pepper wet and they weren’t that bad, in fact better than most wings. The fries on the other hand were incredible.
Will try the wings again and update my review…
