We headed to Wing Zone in New Tampa recently where we met the owner, Kyle Tucker, to learn more about his business and a little about him. Kyle is a transplant, like many of us (I am from Philly), coming to Tampa from Nevada. Moving here recently, Kyle looked around and settled in to New Tampa.  He loves the sense of community, and the way many people are connected in that part of town.

His New Tampa location is currently Wing Zone’s only location in Tampa, headquartered in Atlanta, Kyle's Wing Zone has been open in Tampa for one and a half years.  When asked what it is that sets Wing Zone apart from the multitude of places offering wings on their menu he said it's their singular attention to this tasty piece of meat on the bird that makes them unique.  He went on to explain, at Wing Zone they offer 16 different flavors on their wings ensuring they will have something you are going to FLIP over!

When asked what he sells the most of, he shared his most popular flavors: Honey BBQ, Buffalo Bliss, Garlic Parmesan,  and Thai Chili.

As a newcomer to the area Kyle immersed himself in the community he now calls home, supporting booster events at Wharton High School; he is always looking to support local events in New Tampa so if you have a function and need some food, give Kyle a call and see what he can do! 

Kyle is looking at both the Carrollwood or UT area's of Tampa for possible expansion, expressing a desire to, "stay open until 2 a.m. at UT location for the hungry late-night crowd." He'd also like you to know Wing Zone is kid-friendly - they have nuggets and tenders kids love, AND there is an app for easy ordering and delivery!

He enjoys getting people to see wings differently, as he said, it's not just about Buffalo. “At Wing Zone we have something for everybody and are THE place where you can get not just good wings, but GREAT wings delivered”

His specials include :

  • 60 cent wing night
  • free movie ticket giveaways
  • July 29 is Chicken Wing Day
  • Happy Hour all you can eat wings
  • Football season: NFL package at store and he offers free appetizers if Tampa wins!
