Food is 10/10, unfortunately servers will be LAZY if you have a big party, as gratuity is added after $75. Manager is also very unhelpful, as he will not try to help or do anything. Since this place is packed almost all the time, hospitality is never focused on, which is a shame. It is common for servers to simply not give excellent work, because no matter what the gratuity is there, so this business only focuses on giving out the food and that’s all. At least it’s #2 in the state for best wings.

Nice neighborhood sports bar. Friendly service. Pretty crowded and noisy so be prepared. Lots of daily and happy hour specials. Wings are good. Full bar and lots of beers on tap.

Our group lucked out, we happend to be there during Happy Hour on a Monday and we took advantage of all of the specials they had to offer. The waitress was excellent withe serving our group of 10..Kept coming back to make sure beverages were full at all times. Their signature wings were excellent. We ordered 90 and finished them all. I really liked the dry rub lemon pepper. Was full of flavor. The closer sandwich was huge and did the trick..we ordered every appetizer on the menu. The Mac n cheese bites hit the spot, but the Onion Rings were the MVP. Definitely would go back again.

This is my second time to Sharky's wings, and once again, they didn't disappoint. My husband and I wanted wings, and in comparison to all of the restaurants that we dined in (ate wings), Sharkys is the best! They have many options for flavors, and we chose the lemon pepper and Thai chili. They were both delicious. We ordered a side of steak fries, and those weren't good. The fries were crispy - they were definitely fried too long. On the other hand, the service was quick. We arrived at 8 p.m. and the seating was all taken, but there were seats in the back. We decided to sit in the back, which was fine. Our waiter was attentive, placed our order quickly, and we ordered beverages. Overall we were satisfied with our meal and we will be back.

You can't beat their happy hour specials from 3pm to 7pm for excellent 90 cent wings in a hundred (maybe more) combinations! Also good beer specials, clams on the half shell and a lively crowd. The back room is much quieter but has no ambiance which might be more to your liking if you just want to chow down without a lot of distractions.
