Wishbone Wing Co

At the San Diego zoo centennial, I was so excited to see a wing truck that I did not even consider anything else in the food truck lineup. Well hindsight is ²⁰⁄₂₀. I should have passed. The only thing that separates your wings from anyone else’s is your sauce. Well the sauce is Franks red hot. Needless to say, the wings can’t make up for the lack of an original sauce to cover them. Fries were undercooked, wings a bit over cooked, overall a sad attempt at a wing dinner.

Not what I had imagined. We ordered 5 for $ 7 lemon pepper and the lemon pepper was a wet rub. I’m not sure how that is possible but they did it and sadly i was disappointed. made me crave for other wings

These drumsticks are on performance enhancing drugs. The biggest drumsticks you’ll ever see! Blown away by the size of these massive things. But I’ll get down to my personal pet peeve and that’s breaded fried chicken wings dowsed in wet sauce.
These deep battered fried wings are very good. Excellent spices in the batter. But going from crispy to soggy, isn’t a pleasant eating experience. Drumsticks are so meaty some of them are under cooked. I think moving forward I’ll ask for crispy dry wings with the sauce on the side. Buffalo sauce is very tasty. I like how they throw cucumbers in to the vegetable sides. Blue cheese is a little watered down. I think if I can get the wings crispy with the sauce on the side I’ll be changing my review in the near future. They have some interesting sauces to try. Might have to step the heat up the next time.

Upon going to my dead people grocery (Vons– it’s like the walking dead in there) I saw a different food truck outside the beavers house (Belching Beaver) and I saw WINGS. If there is one other thing besides sausage that I love, well its wings… so I was IN. They have only been around 3 weeks so I’m going to be nice. I am feeling charitable since it’s the holidays.
I understand kinks need to be worked out in the beginning. My first batch of wings were bloody and raw. I immediately took them back. I learned my lesson after my first near death experience with under cooked wings at Hooters years ago. I am actually surprised I still eat wings after that I was so sick lets not go there. ANYWAY They got it right the second time and apologized claiming there was a fryer malfunction. No problem I understand.
So $ 12 for 10 wings seems steep but they are rather large wings. They had a decent variety of sauces I opted for honey sriacha and garlic buffalo. Both sauces were very spicy which I LOVE that is a huge plus in the wing book. So many people claim they are hot and they are not. The other plus; BLUE CHEESE which should be always served with wings with the option to add crumbles or just straight blue cheese. They also have ranch for all you posers.
The second batch was cooked almost perfect in my book. I like a lot more crunch factor. Next time I will ask for extra crispy because while they had some crunch they were also soggy and over sauced in my opinion. But I still enjoyed them. The sriacha honey was better than the garlic buffalo but both were good. Not great or spectacular. Hopefully they up their game with time.
They were better than Dirty Birds and i am not a fan of DB but for some reason a lot of you Unilocalers are.
