Best KPortal Reviews

I had the smoked wings which I wouldn’t recommend. And I also think the wings are slightly overpriced. I do recommend the fried Mac and cheese bites though. I may come back and try the traditional wings next and may edit my review at that point but as of now, i think there are better wing spots in Chicago. Staff was excellent and service was great!

Alright, so I'm not exactly what you'd call a sports bar aficionado, but all my buddies are crazy about The Fifty/50. One night, feeling a bit adventurous (thanks to some green inspiration), I decided to tag along. And let me tell you, it's not your typical sports bar vibe – more like a laid-back, updated neighborhood hangout.

We strolled in on a quiet night, got seated right away, and then, jackpot – they were doing bottomless wings. Now, usually, the word "bottomless" raises an eyebrow, but these wings? Absolute game-changers. No kidding. And the waffle fries? I'm convinced they're sprinkled with some kind of magical seasoning and fried in oil from another dimension. Seriously, I'm not easily impressed by fries, but these were next level.

But, and there's always a but, the service was on the slower side. And I mean, it wasn't busy – I'll say it again, NOT busy. Our server acted like taking our orders was the most tedious task on the planet. Chicago service, it's like playing the lottery – this time, we didn't win.

Now, let's get back to the good stuff. The Fifty/50 is the kind of neighborhood bar you want in your life. The food? Explosively good. Those wings and waffle fries might just be worth dealing with a server who's moving at a glacial pace. Casual vibes all around, making it the perfect spot to kick back, enjoy some top-notch bar cuisine, and, if you're lucky, catch a game on the side.

So, in a nutshell, if you're down for a chill atmosphere, stellar wings, and waffle fries that'll make your taste buds dance, The Fifty/50 is your spot. Just be prepared for the possibility of service that's a bit more tortoise than hare.

My husband is a transplanted Michigander! My daughter just moved to Wicker Park. We were looking for a place to stop to watch the game and we found this great place. The game was on. There was tons of Michigan fans and it was perfect. The food was great. We suggest the nachos with chicken. It was very clean lots of room three floors. We also had a bucket of beer and my daughter got to enjoy a great dessert. excellent establishment and even better Michigan clean the title!!!

Service was quick and efficient. Good place to catch some games, plenty of screens everywhere. The wings were underwhelming. We ordered the Nashville Hot and they weren't spicy at all. Also, a little bland. The Buffalo wings were better. The truffle fries, however, were perfect. Will probably go back to try other things on the menu. Grateful that they had some non-alcoholic beer options.

Wings were good but not worth the premium price they are charging. The award winning buffalo sauce was too vinegary and sweet for my taste. Cajun fries were over fried and can't taste any cajun flavors. Disappointed for the price.

Their food was terrible, I ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich ($17) and it was overly battered and extremely over cooked .. Very greasy.. wasn’t hot at all. My sister ordered the fish pub sandwich ($17) and she asked for cheese on her sandwich. There was no cheese on the sandwich and the waitress came back with a plate of 2 cold slices of cheese. They gave us dirty plastic cups and when we asked for glasses of water instead we were given attitude. Our waitress came off very racist she didn’t want to interact with us at all. Very disappointing.

Have been wanting to try fifty/50 after always walking by it and reading the different reviews. Our server was very helpful and honest. She helped us to not over order since the portions are big. The wings are not the small little ones so with the sides ordering 25 wings for 6 people was actually sufficient. I don’t have the picture but their nachos were killer! We ate that so fast I didn’t have time to take a picture ????

So I read "best wings in Chicago" on the menu, and thought to myself that everyone says that. I was surprised and awed to find that these wings are seriously the best I've tried in Chicago. They are MASSIVE and the flavors were just juicing at me. They had a great brew selection to pair them with, and my girlfriend was able to get a veggie burger which is usually a deal breaker option on whether or not we get to go someplace together to eat. The vibe was super cool too, very clean, modern, open air view leading out to their patio seating which they had a projector setup at. Very cool ????, will definitely go back.
