Super limited parking, many people parked across the street or in the business next door, food quality is good (but not great). I wish they were more consistent with how they make their food, I had wings on 3 occasions, once they were amazing, perfectly done, the other times, they were either dry or overly salty. I wish the bathrooms had doors especially because the women's restroom is right next to the kitchen and to me that is gross. Service depends on who is serving you, the very first time it was amazing, after that it was below average. I mostly go for drinks and a light snack. Overall, it's okay, hut has potential to be excellent.

This kid wears big boy pants! They're the player of the tournament in Williamsport come August. Pitchers whimper on the mound and outfielders take two steps back, for a dinger is imminent. Pundits will often mention the "Best Wings in Indy" comment. It's there for a reason. My trustworthy carnivorous fly-fishing male compatriot, Stone, lost his KSR v-card tonight. Mere moments after housing ten wings in utter efficient silence he was asking who wanted to return later this week. Blue Cheese is not for everybody, I get it. For the few strong (and wise) souls who are, pair this with some Honey Hot chicky chunks and thank me later. Even if you lean towards the favored ranch, both dippables are house made luxuries worthy of a drive down pothole lane. Keystone Sports Review isn't cute. The owners of this place broke their own fist to claim the "hole-in-the-wall" certification. Any review that scores under four here bemoans their own lack of tenacity. Can't teach grit nowadays, huh? I don't care if you're vegetarian or just plain soft, come sink teeth into this cuisine and learn something about yourself. This is working class therapy.

I stopped otw home from work and ordered at the bar the. Lady bar tender was friendly took my order asap, and offered me a drink while I waited, as they're open a tad later then most places during the week, I ordered a 10 piece wing but came with veggies and ranch - i believe the total after tax was 18$ which I think is fair they're decent sized, and the skin was still crispy after sauced which was a big bonus for me The ranch very good/ decent imo, you can tell it's housemade However my " complaints " - it's a tad thin I like a thicker ranch usually and this could use some more mayo - maybe a tad bit more on the garlic too (but that's just me I can see someone who doesn't enjoy garlic as much love this ranch I've seen several reviews for ksr and whoever did recommend them deserves a cold pillow all night and their ate

The establishment is quite spacious and has an open layout, although the parking lot may be a bit unconventional. The waitress was very friendly and attentive, which was truly appreciated. The menu offers a wide variety of options, perhaps it could be condensed slightly. The dishes we ordered for the table were all well received and enjoyed by everyone. The pickles were freshly battered and delicious, while the wings were crispy, freshly prepared, and generously coated in sauce. The side of carrots and celery were also fresh and cut nicely. Overall, we had a great experience and are excited to come back and try more items on the menu.

I never visited the previous location before they moved, so I have nothing to compare it to, but I will say it is your typical sports bar. It wasn't as cozy was I would have liked, it felt like we were in the middle of everyone's viewpoints and the darts were in an inconvenient spot that we decided not to play, even though it's one of our favorite bar activities. It was very busy since we visited during March Madness and we had to wait a bit to get our napkins and silverware after our food was served, but the blue cheese amazing!

Changeover in bartenders and for awhile service dropped, then it got better. Lots of to go orders for wings and I stayed and had wings for my second time this week on wings. I must state I really liked their wings. First they were cooked from scratch. I've found most wing joints are precooking then doing a final flash fry which changes the texture in the wing and I don't like it! These were juicy and had a great redline sauce which stuck to the wing. Crinkle cut fries were really good and the blue cheese- incredible! My go to stop for wings in Indy! Lots of celery and relish included

To keep things simple for anyone scrolling through reviews - best hot wings in Indianapolis. Others have some nice flavors but in terms of a plain ol' hot wing, nobody comes close to KSR. Waffle fries are the best fries of Indianapolis if you're into waffle fries, highly recommend. Service was not so great, spent over an hour here before I got a taste of anything. Hopefully they can work through these issues but either way be aware of it if you're trying to come here. Parking lot is kind of a mess, even with signs in the bathroom telling you not to park at Shell. Painting some lines in the lot might help, but until then expect a little bit of a chaotic situation. Seat yourself seating is always a bit of a risk, and in my experience it led to a long lull in service. Miller Lite on tap and served very very cold. Plenty of tvs to watch sports on so overall this is a great environment for hanging out. The only negative is the room is very smoky, ventilation is bad. Simply put, it's the best wings. The hype is very real. Aside from the food I would almost say this place should be on an episode of Bar Rescue. But good food trumps all problems.

Finally, KSR has come back to Indianapolis! Keystone Sports Review's new location in the former Birdie's is a much welcomed upgrade to this classic Indianapolis treasure. The wings and pizza are still top-notch and a great value. Their new building seems like a great sports bar vibe. I can't wait to come back.
