BIZNOTE FOLLOWUP: West Wings opening this weekend

Four and a half months after we first told you about West Wings – the new restaurant moving into the ex-Copper Coin space at 2329 California SW – the opening date is set. We stopped by today to check on the new restaurant’s status and learned they plan to open this Saturday (August 27th) during the Admiral Junction Funktion street party, noon-9 pm, with a “limited menu.” Then the first official day is Sunday, 11 am-9 pm. You can read more about West Wings, whose proprietors are West Seattle cousins Tony and Paul Barbano, here – wings with 15 sauce options (including “Alki Bonfire”), burgers, salads, more.

    Looks good – welcome to the neighborhood! Is there any news on Camp West that is supposed to open in September?

      Haven’t checked in lately …

    I was fortunate enough to preview the place and menu this past weekend.  It’s legit!  The wings are tasty with five in-house made hot sauces, and several other flavorful options.  The burgers are fantastic and well made.  Portions are reasonable and meant to be combined, so a good meal might be half a dozen wings and a burger (and a good beer which is of course available).  Kid friendly, lots of TVs for sports, etc.Another thing that really impressed me was the staff.  They don’t show any “new restraunt” jitters, as everything was running smoothly.    Really exciting to see them open this week!

      Thanks for the insight. I look forward to finally getting some decent wings outside of the international district.

    I hope they will offer “traditional” Buffalo Wings with celery and bleu cheese dressing (not ranch dressing)! We will be there soon, cant wait.

      And I hope they use something other than Franks which I find to vinegary. Im excited no matter what sauce they use tho!

    Am I out of line saying I still miss Copper Coin?

    • Craig Threlkeld August 23, 2022 (11:41 pm)

      Yes.

    • Myron September 11, 2022 (3:52 pm)

      No. Loved their burgers, hope these are as good.

  • Craig Threlkeld August 23, 2022 (11:45 pm)

    Srsly. Copper Coin (and whatever preceded it. Same menu) was WILDLY overrated. Raise your expectations.

  • WSDogMama August 24, 2022 (1:01 pm)

     We were at the soft opening on Saturday night and YES, traditional buffalo wings with blue cheese dressing and celery.  Yummers.  

  • Larsgo August 25, 2022 (6:47 pm)

    Did they get rid of the bar?

  • Ex-Westwood Resident August 26, 2022 (11:25 am)

    Anyone have a link to their menu and the different sauces/rubs for the wings?

Sorry, comment time is over.
