So good. I absolutely love this restaurant. It is my go to place for wings.
Best wings in the city. Family owned. Nuf sed.
Got the BBQ Chicken Fries and they were delicious! Food was hot and made to order. Team members were nice and attentive.
Quick Review: Wings are great, staff is stellar, best to call in your order. (4.5 stars)
Long Review: (updated 1/5/21)
I have been visiting Wemo's for the wings once a week for years now. I'd call myself a fan, I even have the shirt and hat. This review will cover 4 topics: the Wings, the Value, the Service, and the Wait.
The Wings (5 stars): Best wings in West Mobile area, hands down. The sauce selection is quite diverse at 20-30 options with new flavors showing up on a semi-regular basis (check the menu). The mild buffalo is a classic and they nail it beautifully. The Mango habanero, lemon pepper, and jamaican jerk seems to be favorites amongst my friends. Just check the box before you leave, they tend to go light on the sauce when they are busy.
The Value (4 stars): In addition to Wemo's having the best wings in town, I'd also argue they are one of the best deals in town. On Tuesdays and Thursdays you can get the wings at reduced price, which is nice, and the standard meal prices are pretty good but I understand that this is a relative opinion (check menu prices). I typically walk out the door with 5 wings, fries, and a drink for $8 bucks.
The Service (5 stars): the people that work here are pretty great. A lot of high school and college kids that are fun to chat with and make a stellar team. They are very knowledgeable about the menu and very helpful to make corrections on the fly. I want to name all the staff and thank them personally but for their privacy I shall refrain here.
The Wait (4 stars): Your wait time will vary based on when you order. Monday-Thurs you can expect to get your order on the fly, and the food is sizzling fresh. I would avoid weekends, especially at dinner time, where you can sometimes run into 50+ minute wait times in a packed lobby. For a more consistent experience, always call ahead with your order and get the expected wait time from the staff. Though keep in mind on the weekend the wait might be 20 min when you call and by the time you get there it can be slammed.
So would I recommend Wemo's? Absolutely! Just call ahead on your orders and avoid Fri/Sat nights. (18/20 makes for 4.5 stars average, drop a star on weekend slams)
***COVID-19*** if you are avoiding contact with the public, I recommend that you be mindful of ordering at peak hours on Fri/Sat. Wemo's is very popular and you may end up waiting in a lobby full of people. While the staff is great at wearing masks from what I have seen, this is not the case with the public and a lot of guests dont bother. There are now tables out front.
Edit: spelling
Update: the review is now more concise, includes Service as a metric, and reflects a more general experience.
