Listen, I use to love this place for wings. However, I was VERY disappointed this time. The boneless wings were overcooked and just were awful. The picture of the wings are of the ones I could NOT eat because they were so overcooked. Also, the waitress we had waa horrible. We had to hunt down another waitress to evenget refills. The only bright spot was the apps (mushrooms and pickles) as those were good.
I've been going to Cold Spot since I moved to the area in 2017. The salads are awesome, the wings are delicious, and the staff is great. My son stops by often after school and the staff are always nice to him. I had the pleasure of meeting the owner last Friday by chance when I was picking up my order and love this place even more after talking with him. He was kind and down to earth. He told me how that day, June 3rd, was the 50th anniversary for Cold Spot.He spoke of adversity he and his wife dealt with initially when running the business those first few years and how over time the community began to embrace him and his wife. He told me in the humblest way how he had done every job there from cooking to prepping to cleaning to running the register. Keep in mind, he was actually running the register (as the owner) when I was picking up my order and greeted his staff as they walked by- he laughed and said he didn't run the register often anymore and apologized for taking an extra moment ringing it up. I told him I have been to all three Cold Spots. He told me he used to sleep in the basement (I'm assuming as they were getting the business off the ground). He then picked up my food and walked it out to the car with me helping me get it in the car. This was a very brief talk, but it actually made me look at Cold Spot in a whole new way. I will always be a customer after speaking with the owner. I could hear the dedication, perseverance, and kindness he possesses. I hope to meet his wife one day. Congratulations on over 50 years, Sir!I consider this place a staple of Dunbar (and Charleston as a whole) and I also consider it and the staff my neighbors.P.S. try the hummus, Greek salad (really any salad), and the lemon pepper wingers....my favoritesEnjoy!!!Kelly
I was dining in at the charleston location with a large group and the restaurant was very packed. I decided to order a to go dozen wings to take home via the app to save time since the waitress was very busy and hadnt checked back atbour table in a good while. Long story short somehow my online order went to the Nitro location and the manager at the location i was currently eating at would not even try to accommodate my mistake or work with me in anyway, instead telling me nitro is where i had to go, so since the order was already paid for and driving to nitro to pick it up was out of the question i am out both the money and my food. I hope that order of wings was worth losing a long time customer over.
Food was good but the service was terrible girl had a attitude like i wasn't supposed to sIt at her area which would have been fine BC I saw another young lady working while she set playing On her phone and running her mouth to the hostess who didn't do her job either I sat myself and had id known I would have moved to the area where the other young lady worked i left a tip just to show her her ignorance didn't affect my night. DO BETTER NEXT TIME not everyone one that jive that yo lazy worker was one PERIOD
I remember this place before the fire. It was a dandy then and the newly rebuilt version is no different. Great family sports environment (not a bad seat in the house because you're surrounded by big screens everywhere!), big patio section, consistently good on food & drinks, and the staff are as nice as they could be. The parking is sometimes challenging but that's because they're good. Easy ADA access.
I ordered 100 wings for a function. In my opinion, if you order 100 wings, they should come with some ranch or Bleu cheese or some kind of dressing. They do not. It was about $10 for 2 pints of dressing. The wings were a big hit, but the kids said mild was medium and medium is hot. They said wings from this establishment always are hotter than other places. As a fan of spice, I think that's nice. They also don't come with celery or anything like other places.The wings were in aluminum baking pans, which made for easy serving, but the lids were not easily reusable to store the hot wings the kids didn't eat. I think they should consider the cardboard lid method like China King.Pickup was easy, but you pick up in the gas station (not the restaurant?) Which is admittedly a little confusing.
Really like their Greek salad with gyro meat and hot wings! Great selection of beer!
This place is awesome. Everything we ordered was great and our server was kind and knowledgeable of their menu. Totally recommend!
Ordered food on doordash at 9:30. They didn't fulfill it and my dasher had to sit and wait for 30 minutes. Come to find out, they closed their machines down at 10:00 and ignored my order. Neat.
Service was good. Have the medium sauce on my wings it was fabulous, also have a Philly pita bread and it was very good the place was clean a little overcrowded loved all the TVs and the owner stopped by and said hi and checked on to see if everything was all right that was five star I recommend it
