Wings N’ More Wings

Prices are higher than I remember (back in 2009, mind you) BUT more importantly: I love their mambo/​mumbo sauce (which they call momber sauce) on wings.
I grabbed a 12pc to go ($ 13.50 +tax) and despite a 10 min car ride home, the wings were still hot and crispy. Then add the delightfully tangy mambo sauce on top and yum yum. My friends (who for some reason had never had heard of mambo sauce) were also big fans.

Really good! Lots of food great price. In the hood lol. I will be back hood is best!

I absolutely love their food … I’ve had everything from the chicken wings to the combo egg foo young!!! it’s a hole in wall but the flavors are amazing

I work for a non-​profit that recently ordered food from this place. It was super tasty. The veggie low mein was fantastic and wasn’t too greasy. The wings and fried rice were great as well. The kind owners of Wings N’ More Wings even gave us some free food. Very tasty! Thanks :)

Since they killed off most of the cheap Chinese carryouts around Capitol Hill and Eastern Market, I come here for my wings & mambo sauce fix. Still relatively cheap, though that 5-​wings-​and-​fries will set you back $ 7 instead of $ 5, it’s worth it for the classic bulletproof Chinese ambience. Make sure they «fry them hard» because you want them pork crackling crispy. Then drown them in mambo sauce; each restaurant has it’s own recipe and here it skews a little heat with a sweet and sour sauce finish. Although Lucky Carryout near Potomac Avenue is closer, I think they fry them here better.

If crab cakes and football are what Maryland does, then fried chicken wings and mumbo sauce are what DC does!
For those of you that don’t know, mumbo (or mambo) sauce is a DC iteration of duck sauce. Everyone has their own favorite, some like it sickeningly sweet and corn syrup-​y, while others, like me, prefer it with some paprika and hot-​sauce and very light sweet & sour undertones, like here at Wings N’ More Wings.
While you can pretty much find wings and mumbo sauce at any DC Chinese restaurant like Yum’s or even Kenny’s, those of us that have lived in DC and have tried each and every one will tell you that the meatiest, heartiest, best whole wings in town are here. And if you’re really in the know, you’ll get them double fried — once quick fried, once a little longer — for that perfect crispy skin. And you don’t pick pieces off the wings and dip them into your mumbo sauce, you dip entire sections of the wing in and take a huge bite out. This is a time to forget what you learned at etiquette school and just get messy. I’m telling you, food just tastes better that way. If you’re a true mumbo sauce enthusiast, you even slurp down the last leftover drippings of sauce once you run out of wings before calling it a day.
If you don’t know… now you know!
