Wings Destination Since 2009
How It All Started
From a Backyard Recipe to Rochester's Favorite Wings
Wings over started in 2009 when founder Marcus Webb began experimenting with wing recipes in his Rochester garage, inspired by family cookouts and the vibrant local food scene. What began as a passion project quickly became a neighborhood obsession — friends and strangers alike kept asking for more.
By 2011, Marcus opened the first Wings over location on W Henrietta Rd, introducing Rochester to a new standard for wings: crispy on the outside, juicy within, and tossed in bold house-made sauces that have since become iconic. Today, Wings over serves over 50,000 happy customers a year and counting.
- All wings are sourced from trusted local farms and never frozen
- Every sauce is crafted in-house from original family recipes
