Duff's Famous Wings in Toronto

As traditional as you can go when it comes to wings

Best buffalo style wings I ve had in a while! Will crave their wings all the time now see you soon!

Awesome wings

Ordered saucy fingers as per the photo they have on Uber eats. More like dry asf. This way they can charge you for extra sauce on the side for already expensive food

Wings are good albeit a bit dry, even though we never requested well done. Service isn t good though. It s slow and they never check to see how anything is even though it s not very busy. Onion rings are the most solid item. Coming from a wing restaurant - that s not a high praise.

Best wings in the city. Good size, always perfectly cooked, great flavor, best of all theyre always consistent. Wish they had more locations

Was so disappointed in both the service and food. I heard all the hype and thats all it was Hype. The wings were over cooked and dry. Service was not so friendly.

Expensive $$$$$ the wings are very small and very ordinary.

Gross absolutely gross ...not sure if it was because I ordered a Skip the dishes close to closing time at 9 or 9 30 on a Thursday night but the wings were dry AF and Im pretty sure they were reheats or had been sitting awhile because they were dry Pretty sad that a box of No Name No Frills baked in the oven are better and tastier . Thought $20 for a pound of wings implied a higher standard but guess I was wrong. Might have been one of the worst meals Ive ever had.

Last visit wasnt the best. Tuesdays are wing night so if you go then, expect delays and less than their best. Five pounds of wings came out super crispy and dried out from there. Good place but choose your day and time of visit would be my advice.

Wings are decent. Owner is delusional. Does not appreciate business.

So my partner had a plan to treat the family to Duffs Wings. We were all looking forward to noshing on some wings. She called the restaurant on Bayview (Tuesday July 23 5pm). The Canadian website has a deal for 5lbs of wings (3 flavours) for $70+. Anne asked about the deal and the woman who answered the phone claimed not to be aware of such a deal. We directed her to their own web page. We asked for the manager and were told he was not available. Then a man got the phone and said, I dont want you thinking you coming here and getting a deal! We surfed him as well to the web site and the deal. He made it clear he wouldnt be looking at the site, Dont care what the site says you wont be getting a deal I advised him wed be calling corporate to deal with them not honouring the deals on their website. We called BOTH of the OTHER Toronto locations on Barhurst (Rathburn and College). BOTH of the other restaurants confirmed that the deal was being honoured at their locations. This rude male staffer at Bayview location (on Tuesday July 23rd 5pm), clearly doesnt take customer service seriously AT ALL! For courteous service, order from Duffs Bathurst locations!!

The first time I came, we were seated and abandoned despite the restaurant being mostly empty. We left after waiting for 15 minutes. I recently ordered delivery and was shocked at how tiny and dry the wings were. It would be easy to make bigger, better, juicer wings at home in an oven, and for far less money. Delivery took forever and the food arrived at room temperature in soggy cardboard. No care or consideration given to delivery logistics.

Everything was amazing!!!

Called.for.delivery at 9 pm. All delivery services closed. Woman answering phone was.less than interested in discussing the matter. Directed me to other location which was closing and farther from me. The owner has always been more than respectful and accommodating whenever there was an issue no matter the scale. He once had drinks that were missing in an order sent to us (at his expense) after food was delivered. I never write reviews but when you want something so bad (wings are.the best in town) and are met with easily over come challenges, its disappointing, being a loyal customer of many years..

Great place for wings. Their fries are amazing.

Great wings, tad pricey but everything is in this damn economy. Defo check these guys out for some solid food!

The wings were tough and overcooked

The wings are so dry and bland. We ordered the dry wings and we actually got really dry wings which was hard to eat. We didnt even finish the wings, cuz we were bloated after enduring a couple of them. For 2 1lb wings and a small fries it was $45 before tips. Such a waste of money. The staff were nice enough though. But definitely not going back here

Love their super hot wings

What happened?? Used to be my favorite spot, and they have cut the quality and increased the prices. Totally disappointed. Last time I ll be here. :(

Wings were decent although not as hot as reviews might indicate, and the service was awful. The surcharge for their *armageddon wings was outrageous ($4.50 per pound) and again, not nearly as hot as they should be for a price like that. You can buy a full bottle of that stupid hot Da Bomb sauce, and coat 100s of wings for barely much more. You can get better wings for less at literally any other place that serves wings as a specialty, and you d probably get bigger and more robust too at a decent pub.

Our go to wing spot in Toronto for more than 20 years! Best we ve had anywhere in Canada, and actually better than the original Duffs Wings in Buffalo, NY which we stopped at and tried a few years ago!

Staff and atmosphere was great, wings were good 8/10. Medium isnt actually hot, just feels like Franks Red hot.

Best wings in the city

My favorite place for wings. Always get super hot wings. Friendly staff great environment.

Horrible wings. Ordered two pounds of wings for the NFL playoffs tonight via Uber. First of all, only eight wings per pound which is one less than the norm. Badly overcooked. Bone dry. We ordered mild and medium sauce on the order. But the wings were delivered dry with only a small amount of sauce at the bottom of each container. Not enough to flavour more than two wings. Why not send the sauce in a separate small container if you dont want to pre-coat them? The fries are horrible as well. Tasteless, cooked from frozen. Famous Wings? Famous for what? Ive had hundreds of pounds of wings. Duffs ranks in the bottom 5%.

Always consistent wings

Great wings!

Was told my order of 2 lbs mild-medium and 1 lbs honey garlic wings with small fries one day before the Super Bowl would be ready for pickup in 25 minutes but the best I could say about the food was that the fries were ok and sort of warm by they time we got home. The wings seemed a day old, dried out, and abnormally crispy like they were at least a day old given how a congealed film had formed on the sauce on the bottom of the cardboard container as that was no longer all liquid. My conclusion is that Duffs Wings sells bad leftover food and is a complete waste of money, certainly no longer famous! If you check other post reviews, I am not alone in my extreme disappointment.

You guys are not open on super bowl day

Seems to be going downhill. Wings are smaller and dry. They also force you to tip big even on pickup orders.

We havent been to Duffs for awhile but wanted wings and it used to be our go to place before the pandemic so we placed a takeout order and got a couple pounds of wings. I noted that the menu on their website says that you cant request more drums or flats so you would think that you would get an equal amount of both given that chickens create an equal amount but our order was about 80-85% flats which surprised and disappointed me since you would expect a similar amount of both. The wings themselves were dried out and chewy. I guess its no longer my go to place anymore after this experience. I guess we need to find a new go to place when were in the mood for wings.

Out of the Duffs in Little Italy and this one on Bayview, this one has much better wings. Great selection, great service. Wing orders are preorderable for big events (i.e. Superbowl), so make sure you do that if you ate picking up for takeout!

Aside from the wings being big I wouldnt eat here again. Either the wings are old or they just dry them out. Medium hot is basically Franks red hot sauce. Fries again taste old. To boot no ketchup salt pepper napkins or cutlery. *dont let the flash on the camera fool you they look better then they taste by farrrrrr*

I have a really bad shellfish, octopus, and squid allergy. They were fantastic at accommodating and the food was great too.

Really disappointed with the wings and food in general. I think they need a new supplier for wings. The wings are so small and barely anything on them. The wrap was pretty dry and without any sauce or taste. Service was great..

Top wings in toronto.

Great casual wings place on Bayview. Any flavour you want. Good service.

2023 Dec. - We ordered some menu special which was 5 baskets of wings with different sauces. It came with loads of crispy fresh veggies and dip. We ordered large fries and gravy. Everything was hot, delicious and perfect. The staff couldnt have been more friendly efficient. Our waitress actually left in the middle of our meal and didnt even ask us to close out our tab. Her co-worker did it for her and assured us that the tip would be passed onto her. I found that unbelievably nice and I would not expect that. Usually the server asks you to close out if theyre leaving work. Great job. Thanks for a great meal experience. .....

Great wings, great staff. Went with 2 others friends and the 3 of us got the 5lb special, which gets you 3 flavour options. We chose medium-hot: which seemed like regular franks, spicy bbq was good, and lemon pepper which was also good. We also got a side of large fries. All in all the quality was good, total bill with food, 2 pitchers and few pints + tip came to $160.

Good celery.

Worst wings I ve ever had! I wish I had thought to read the reviews. How old were these poor chickens???

I tried their armageddon wings and they definitely did not disappoint. Wings were tender and very very very very hot, very tasty. The staff is very nice too.

Always an awesome place to go to, staff are welcoming and super friendly.

The wings here used to be good, I ordered some recently and they literally tasted like they were frozen from the grocery store and small. Probably the worst wings I ve ever had.

The waitress was unresponsive and rude when i went for a pickup. Wasnt a pleasant experience. 5.12pm Saturday February 11, 2023

Great wings.

Got 2lbs wings and a strawberry salad. The salad is good. But the wings are super dry and overcooked. What shocked me was the 2 sticks of carrots and 1 stick of celery. It really doesnt cost that much to give a little more veggies.

One of the Best place for wings. Great sauces such as spicy bbq and death.

Kinda dingy but the service was quick and the wings were good. Mac and cheese bites were a bit bland but we came for the wings so it is what it is.

Best wings in Toronto hands down. I drive from scarborough to come here.

Big Wings fan here, hearing a lot about this place and my wife and I came here to enjoy some wings. We ordered 2lbs of wings and fries. 1) theres absolutely no meat on the wings 2) the wings were all overcooked and I couldnt finish them since I felt like I was eating bone and scraps. There was something weird about the experience too, as if feeling like we didnt belong. Our waiter and the other waitresses were asking their other customers how things were and how the food was. We didnt get asked once, even after I asked for the bill, and very clearly left more than half the food. Ive never had such an experience in my life. Naturally I didnt pay a tip, and instead of asking us why, my wife mentioned that he was clearly gossiping about us to his other employees. Two notable things that were good for those who care: - the fries were excellent, we just left more than half since we wanted to hit the spot and ended up going to a different wings place - the wings sauce (superhot buffalo and hot honey garlic) were excellent as well. This must be why this place is popular. I would definitely not come back here though, even if they offered free food.

My favorite wing spot in Toronto big consistent sizes and great sauce selections always have good wait staff I have noticed in 2023 that their sauce spice level has subsided from blow your doors off medium and up! Medium used to be extra hard everywhere else but now its just medium. Just an update

We stopped in for lunch today and the food was predictably delicious. The service from Hayley was exceptional and we will definitely be back for another visit. Parking: We found a parking spot in front.

Awesome place

I ordered 1 pound of wings through takeout and expected the wings to taste a bit better considering the previous reviews. I ate within 10 mins of receiving the food and the meat tasted overcooked but the sauce (Spicy BBQ) was really good.

Ive been to a Duffs before and have always regarded their wings as one of the best. Havent been there for some time, so I decided to try this location on Bayview on a whim. First off, the staff here is amazing. Very friendly and attentive. And I was only there for takeout. Once I settled in to have my wings less than 10 mins after leaving the restaurant, I was disappointed! The wings felt like they were re-fried and then re-fried again. It was hard and very difficult to bite into. Needless to say, I only had 2 of the 9 wings. Had to toss the rest. No way I would have been able to finish them. And I would not have passed on that experience to anyone. Hopefully, I will build up the courage to try them again. Maybe dine-in.

My husband s favourite place for wings in the GTA. We drive from Mississauga for takeout.

I come here regularly and it s always consistently great. Service is good. Food comes out fast and it s always fresh.

Good service and tasty food!

Always a clutch spot to come for wings. You know what youre getting.

Kid-friendliness: Several kid-friendly options. Food

I come here whenever I m in town and it s never let me down. Good service, great wings!

By Far the Best Wings Around! We have been to all 3 locations including the original location in Buffalo. Always amazing they never disappoint. Cant believe we having been frequenting Duffs for almost 20 years. Even when we moved over an hour away we still come back

The wings were great, they were not fatty at all or have a lot of veins and black spots in them. The sauces were delicious.

This is not comparable to the one in Vaughan. Far from it. The wings are refried making them hard and tasteless. Service is OK, again not comparable to the one up north. Very disappointing.

Love it

Places amazing. Really enjoyed myself

Ordered 4Lbs of medium wings over Uber eats! Came with the aluminum cover to keep as well! Amazing wings and sauce just like the Buffalo franchise down south. It s my new favourite spot for wings when the craving is real !

Dont order takeout dinendash uber etc theyll send the dried out old wings

Its the only genuine buffalo wing joint in town. Worth the trip.

Don t listen to the idiots leaving one stars not what it used to be but still good and staff is great

Always the best. I have nothing else to say. My hottest wings were super hot, although I have tried Death and Armageddon sauce. I love this place! Food : 5/5

Had wings and a chicken sandwich. The wings were few and dripping with a tasteless hot sauce. The sandwich was cold and bland. All this for an insane price. It was a dingy little place with no atmosphere.

BEST WINGS IN TORONTO HANDS DOWN! The medium buffalo flavour is to die for. Also mild-medium is good but less spicy and more buttery.

Absolutely a must have. The wings are amazing the atmosphere is chill and it s simply good fun. Genuinely crave these hot wings sometimes

Good overall.

used to be great wings, but quality has gone down since the glory days

The Tuesday wing special is worth going for dinner to Duffs on Bayview, south of Eglinton. Lots of varieties to choose from including traditional buffalo styles from Mild to Armageddon, BBQ, honey garlic, ...and dry wings as well! Excellent fries and potato wedges, served piping hot! All good! Food : 5/5

The best wings i have ever had. Not just the best buffalo style, but best EVER! Unreal how crispy they come to the table. Much better than Anchor Bar.

Polite server but overpriced food and beer.. was bad atmosphere the bar was turned into tables. The basement with the bathrooms stunk of piss so much so I threw up on my way out. 100 bucks for 2lbs of wings some fries and a poutine

Great food! great service! fair priced!especially since these are some if the best wings you will find in town. Friendly owner too. Highly recommended.

Great place, great food!

We ordered 2 lbs of plain wings and BBQ sauce on the side, extra carrots and celery. Wings were dry and overcooked. Only 16 in a big box hard to believe that was 2lbs!! No carrots or celery. When I called they said because I ordered for delivery by Uber Eats I was out of luck. Sorry. Yes I am sorry. I will never order Duffs again. A disappointing rip-off.

Great wings and very good sauce. The best wings in the gta hands down. Not too many people when I went but the music overall and vibe was nice. 100% recommend.

OK wings, but they add too much sauce. The rest of the menu is sub-par.

Ordered take out on a Saturday. Quite easy process! Our order was ready on time and everything felt safe and clean when we picked up. Of course the wings were delicious as always! Duff s wings reheat so well, we always order extra. We will be back!

Beware of the owner, never going back...ever. Owner was rude and kicked us out after spending almost $200. Came here to celebrate my sons Birthday with his friends. Wings were good and the server was super nice until the owner showed up and told us it was time to leave. Never happened to me! Rude business owner!

Hands down the best chicken wings in Toronto Update ... Still yummy!

Really good wings. Place was clean and the server was very nice and polite.

Food is solid but the price is

Best wings in town by far!! Great portion size crispy and juicy with a large menu but I must say u cant go here without trying their wings!!! Awesome ppl to deal with always friendly and accommodating and service with a smile!! U gotta eat here!!

Staff was friendly and the choice of beer was decent. The wings were nice and crispy and the sauce on the wings were tasty. I had the Hot Honey Garlic wings...

I have been craving buffalo wings so I decided to go for a ride for some Duff s. My friend and I went for Wing Special 1 which included 2lbs of wings, large fries and a small pitcher of pop. Carrots and celery were crunchy and cold. The pitcher filled 2 cups. The fries nice and crunchy. The wings now this is the reason why I gave 2/5 starts. The wings were sauced nicely. We were one of the two tables that were filled. The server was nice and helpful with picking flavours. I was completely disappointed as the wings were old, dry, hard and nothing fresh about it. Local wing joints are much better than this. Definitely not worth the drive, struggle to find parking and for the price.

Wings were very good drinks are affordable.. good atmosphere.

Duffs if always our preferred family restaurant for past 20+ years, great place, excellent food, best hospitality experience, we love duffs.

If you are looking for a great pub grub, they have it all. Love the deep fried Mac n cheese

The staff are excellent, and the menu options are perfect. Not too many options - just right!

They gave me like 6 wings and said it s a pound of wings lol. This place is an absolute ripoff!

I used to live in the Bayview area not so long ago, and would get Duffs Wings fairly regularly. I dont know what changed exactly, if it was COVID, new ownership, or what have you, these arent the same great wings they used to be. Two main issues here. Size/quality of the wings (tinier and barely any meat on them - maybe they changed suppliers for the worse?) & the way they cook them (fry them to death so theres no juiciness whatsoever and its like eating tin foil). Real shame.

Wings were good. Wine list could be improved and the carrots plates could have had more than 2 carrots sticks.

Hard to believe this place survives with Wild Wing just up the road. I guess if you want ridiculously hot wings this is the place. But there is very little meat on the wings. Decent selection of beer for a wing place. Menu has quite a bit other than wings, but is that why you come here? I was alone so couldnt try anything else.

Our server Hayley went above and beyond to make our experience amazing! from the drinks to the wings... Besides her recommendation of the Armageddon flavour all in all Hayley made our first trip to duffs amazing!

Basic wings

Ordered these & picked up for Father s Day. 2 lbs. : 1 mild -hot, 1 salt & pepper. What a complete disappointment. The ones with sauce were barely moist with sauce. The salt & pepper were hard & dry. Seemed like they had been sitting on a counter for some hours. There were about 7/8 wings in each pound . Very disappointed. Would NOT order again.

Dont go before closing. Wings and fries are not fresh. They are precooked and refried.

This is the first time I visited Duffs and really enjoyed the food. Staff is amazing so as the service. Totally coming back.

Was there july 5th and they were the worst wings ive ever had... truly terrible and not cheap... no where as good as it once was said the person i was with...

Have been coming to this location for years and they are never a let down. If you like saucy wings this is a great spot.

The wings have been going downhill since I ve started going there the last 20 years. The first few times they were great wings juicy full of flavour and fresh. Then they started to get smaller, some places call the bistro wings less meat more skin( I accepted that). Next they got drier, the wings must have been fried already then re-fried when ordered and sauced. We still went back to have wings ( great coleslaw btw) to support local business plus the owner was nice from time to time. When COVID lockdown hit we did takeout and dine in when we can. The last straw was when we ordered a take-away when I got home we were missing the vegetables and dip. I call them right away and let them know, kind of expecting an apology and a credit of sorts for the next time. Boy, what a let down. The hostess that answer said ´that s not possible ´ no mispacking here. We asked to speak with the manager, he then said he had checked with the kitchen and no mistake. By this time I m thinking, if you people actually checked our history you can see we been doing takeout quite often. We were about to just hang up and leave it be, but then the lady on the phone said in a matter of fact tone the veggies and dip just comes with the meal it not like you paid for it. That was was the last straw we have not visited Duff s since that day.

Used to absolutely love this place, but have not been in a while. Honey they shrunk the wings! . I don t get it, maybe it was just an off day. Service was adequate but not attentive.

Wings way over cooked couldn t eat. Service was great.

I wish I read the reviews before blindly ordering from here. I was craving wings and decided to try a new place...what a mistake. The wings are mediocre at best, you can literally make better wings with an air fryer! The fries I ordered had a tinge taste of old oil, I could not finish them...it was gross. I came to see the reviews to see if it was maybe a one off bad night they were having, but no, this place appears to consistently deliver mediocre food.

Great service. Was welcomed right in! Would recommend.

Wings and fries are very good. The only concern was they close a bit early in Friday night and we had to come out early.

mid

Best wings

The wings are cooked amazingly. Very crispy. However. The hot sauce they say is really really hot, is just Franks hot sauce. People that like spicy call that medium at best.

Wings tasted good but over priced and they were cooked to long. Very dry.

Wings were dry and over cooked. The appetizers were good though! Friendly staff also, just not great wings

For pickup-Paid $33 for a chicken Caesar wrap and poutine. wasn t allowed to sub fries for a poutine had to order them separate. Wrap had barely any dressing! There was no Parmesan cheese or croutons as per the menu. It was watery lettuce with minimal dressing and diced up chicken tenders that just fell out of the wrap each bite. Side fries went in the garbage because we had ordered a poutine. The poutine was really really disappointing! 2 tablespoons of cheese curd all on one half and just dry as heck! Gravy was on the side and very lumpy! Sorry for the horrible review but this was really bad DUFFs! Why can t patrons sub sides?????? What a waste of food

Excellent wings and service.

The best wings, the best buffalo shrimp!!! Service is amazing, servers are friendly

Loved it!

4 major infractions on dinesafe :(

Never misses

Amazing wings, horrible service. Last night I watched as the 2 beers that I ordered sat on the counter getting warm for an extended period of time while 4 girls chatted behind the bar, rather than bring the beer to my table. No checkup for a 2nd beer or extra napkins. Service & Experience was basically the absolute bare minimum.

walking in here felt like i was in a small isolated state in america, the vibes were strange. the food was decent, nothing impressive. fries were nice and crispy and the dill dip for the veggies was . overall a very standard wings place, minus feeling like i teleported to a different country.

A little disappointed, ordered take out, 2 lbs 16 wings and mild/medium hot sauce Plus+ carrots, celery with dill sauce and ranch sauce. The wings were great as usual but, seriously? The carrots were 2 sticks and the celery 2 sticks? Get real Duffs, you should be ashamed, box of chicken 16 wings should also get a box of 16 carrot and celery sticks... Please fix this

Great wings. They are not kidding when they say that their medium is really hit

As usual, excellent wings and service.

Certainly not the best wings. They re not awful but really nothing special about them..

Always good! If you love really hot wings, you need to try duffs Armageddon wings!

Great service. Holly was amazing, really friendly. The sauce were good. Wings were decent.

Not really that great. Wings were stringy and overcooked. Disappointed.

By far my favourite hot wings in the city. They have a wide variety of heat levels which is great. Only complaint is the space is a bit dated inside. But hey - they have great wings.

As always good quality

Delicious wings and fantastic service. Very good covid protocols. Will be back next time I am in the city.

Definitely no where even close to what they used to be. Wings are way smaller!

Hayley is the best server. Oh the ball but respectful of Privacy. Great vibe. Great service

Good food but long wait

Food is okay. Service is alright.

Wings good but can be better

Quick and efficient service. Staff is a bit more mechanical than friendly, but this place has been my go to for wings for years.

They forgot one of the items in my take out order and i didnt open the package to check it at the restaurant. When i got home i realized the problem and called them right away. They said they would give my credit card the refund but they never followed through with this. The food itself was just okay, not worthy of the hype as one of the best wing places in toronto.

One of the best wings, outside Buffalo. The sauces are hot and diversely flavored. And if it says HOT on the menu, expect it to be super HOT. They believe in what they say. Will recommend this place to any wing lover. Maybe the bar has limited options but the food is so authentic, it makes up for it

Always 5 stars.

The quality of the food was bad. The wings felt old and barely any meat in it. The sauces were ok. I am not sure how this gets top wings in toronto

Good wings, great staff. A favorite spot.

Wings and flavors are great. Best to go on Tuesday for the wing special!

Great wings and service

Great vibe, enjoyed the music and drinks are avg price.

Very poor quality wings, hard, no sauce at all. I saw another table returning the wings too. Tgis was last Tuesday

I was so disappointed. The wings were not good at all. I assume they were overcooked, but they may have been bad chicken to begin with. I actually couldnt even finish them they were so bad. I remember Duffs being really good many years ago, so I brought other people to try them. Needless to say, that didnt go over well at all. Too bad.

Super tasteless, not sure what the hype is about. Wild wing is better and wild wing is very average at best.

Usually a family favourite, but the last 2 times weve ordered pick up, the food, including wings, fries, tenders - were absolutely inedible. The chicken was so dry that we were spitting it out. The fries were hard.We ended throwing out most of the meals. Second time. Waste of $$. Wont be ordering there again.

Service was good but the wings.. terrible. It s almost as if they cook the wings then toss on cold sauce. I got 2 lbs one medium hot and the second hot garlic. The wings were cold and not actually spicy at all. Honestly, go to wild wing. Better price and better quality.

Duffs is the yardstick by which other wings are measured. They dont have pineapple sauce wings dusted with gorgonzola, or spicy Tasmanian wings with a radicchio dressing. What they do have is Buffalo wings, just as God intended, with varying degrees of hotness. And without resorting to hyperbole, they are the best wings in the history of wings. Also, they have a good beer selection on tap, but I hesitate to even mention that, because reading about the beer is precious seconds you could have read about the wings.

Duffs always has great wings.

Wings were okay to taste. The point of disappointment was that the website pointed out that the super hot is extremely hot. However I found it mediocre hot. It was not my taste bud joking, all my friends who tasted it felt the same.
