Ray's Original Buffalo Wings

Decided to check this place out with some friends. Walked into a cool atmosphere and friendly staff. The gentleman that helped us was super nice and on point with everything. I just wish I could give a better review on the food. My food was average at best. This is a friend of a friend's place and I will go back and try again. Hopefully it was a fluke and I will be able to change my review about the food.

Great food, service, and original sauces! I ordered Chicken fingers with Tequila Lime sauce, Onion rings, and a margarita. The chicken fingers were excellent, cooked nice and crispy and covered with the very flavorful homemade tangy tequila lime sauce. The onion rings were good, pretty standard O-rings, but made better by dipping them in the ranch sauce. I took a risk ordering a margarita, but I wanted to complement the chicken finger sauce, so to my surprise the margarita was way better than expected. Big, salty, and actual lime juice, not the cheap pre-mix I expected. I highly recommend checking out Ray's if you're in midtown!

Wings came out in less than 10 minutes, obviously just refried. Ordered a 6 piece and received 5 flats and one drummie. At least the fries were fresh, but the ketchup is the worst I've ever had. So disappointed, used to be the best wings in town. I've been a customer since the 90's and it's just not the same. I think the overhead is just too much to handle for this location or the passion and attention to detail is gone. Obviously cutting corners and I won't be back. So sad to see a great place go down hill like this. RIP... At least the beer was cold.

I don't know how I missed this place, apparently it's been open for 2 years. I've had the Big Mike burger a couple times, now, and also their blue cheese burger with Ray's Buffalo Challenge sauce, which was certainly hot! The fries and jalapeno poppers are incredible, also. Make sure you get them with the Ranchacha sauce! The staff is friendly and the service is fast. Parking can be a bit of a challenge I would imagine, I've only been there during the miss afternoon when they weren't too busy. Make sure you bring change for the parking meter, and there's a parking garage nearby, too. There's a lot of TVs in the place, all on different channels, and they have good music playing on the sound system. The place is spotlessly clean and well maintained. It's become one of my favorite places for lunch.
