King Fish & Wings

It looks a little dive-​ish from the outside, but the food is top notch! I got the Kings Super Combo and it’s literally enough for two meals. Seasoning is soooo tasty.

Love this place. It may be a tad run-​down and not in the best area, but for food like this, who cares!!!
Been here 3 times to get food for the office, and each time has just made everyone want to go back more often! Personally, I’ve had the chicken wings, tenders, and catfish fillets. I’ve never had any with sauce, only with the amazing lemon pepper salt that gets DUMPED over the delicious fried meat. The chicken is tender and juicy, always flavorful. The catfish tastes very fresh, and is always light and flaky, yet moist and filling.
Not only is the quality great, but the quantity you get for what you pay is INSANE! (all of the following for ~ $ 7) I got the so-​called «mini-​combo» and must have gotten a pound of chicken, and another ¾ pound of catfish. But it doesn’t stop there, It also came with a half pound of fries, a generous serving of cole slaw, and two slices of delicious fresh white bread.
I would keep ranting and raving, but you get the point. Just get over there and try it for yourself!
PS. It’s take-​out only!

Was craving wings and it hit the spot! Ordered the buffalo wings and there was definitely meat on them, Wasn’t skimpy on the fries either. Would love to order from here again.

I grew up very close to this location in the 60’s, 7’s and 80’s. As long as I remember I’ve been coming to this little building when it was an ice cream stand, a sub sandwich shop and a taco hut. I wanted to go back to the old neighborhood and check out what’s in there now. I was a bit saddened when I went in as the place has not held up over the years. The place is in dire need of a remodeling. Nevertheless, I ordered the 6 pc wings dinner, which comes with bread, fries and cole slaw. I am happy to say I was pleasantly surprised. The wings were big and tasty, the fries were cooked just right and the slaw rich and creamy. The BBQ sauce isn’t bad either. And for $ 6 it’s quite a deal. Don’t expect to find a pretty place but without a doubt the food is awesome! BTW they offer a variety of desserts as well although I didn’t partake but next time for sure.

The only thing I miss about working in Joliet is how easy it was to pick up King’s on my way home. Their wings are just the best, made with fresh whole wings. We get them often for parties and they come in a big tray resting on a generous portion of fries, with both fries and wings sprinkled with a lemon pepper seasoning that haunts my dreams. You can get buffalo or barbeque sauce on the side, but I skip the sauce completely — that’s how good the seasoning is. They also have the best hush puppies I’ve had anywhere, and those, too, are sprinkled with that amazing seasoning.
One of these days I’ll try something else they offer, but it’s hard to veer away from those wings that are always so consistently awesome.
