George & Dragon – The New King of Phoenix Wings?

We moved the taste test over to George & Dragon and the energy was high. After the “too wet” debate at our last stop, we were looking for something that could actually hit a perfect score.

The Main Event: 5-Alarm Wings

The crew was nearly unanimous on these—this might be the spot for the best wings in the city.

• The Sauce: These are served with a dry rub, which was a huge win for the group.

• The Flavor: There’s a distinct “sweet taste” at the first bite that evolves into a serious heat.

• The Blue Cheese: A major talking point—it’s clearly homemade, incredibly chunky, and serves as the perfect cooling agent for the 5-alarm heat.

• The Texture: Served piping hot and perfectly crispy.

The Scores (5-point scale):

• Alan: 5/5 (A rare perfect score!)

• Billy: 5/5

• Daylynn: 5/5

• Brian: 4.5/5 (Ever the “Simon Cowell,” he held out for even more seasoning).

The Secret Weapon: “Dragon Crisps”

You cannot go to George & Dragon without ordering the Dragon Crisps.

• What they are: These are ultra-thin, crispy potato skins.

• The Vibe: They are so thin they “almost melt in your mouth.” They aren’t quite a potato chip and aren’t quite a traditional potato skin—they occupy a legendary middle ground that the whole table loved.

Final Thoughts

Between the Janis Joplin soundtrack and the homemade blue cheese, George & Dragon officially inspired the crew. It’s a 5-star experience for anyone who takes their wings seriously.

The Verdict: If you want wings that actually pack a flavorful punch and sides that melt in your mouth, get to George & Dragon.
