Southern has been in the business "since I was a child" he said, "My family were some of the first to bring it to the west coast in 2001." He is the owner or co-owner of seven other locations in the greater Puget Sound area starting with Bellevue in 2012. They are in Bellevue,Renton Landing, SouthCenter, Kent Station, Tacoma near the mall, Puyallup on Meridian and Lakewood Town Center. He encountered former Seahawk Sidney Rice with whom he now shares ownership in several WingStop locations. Once the Seahawks discovered WingStop they came in regularly resulting in him meeting Sherman. "He said he wanted to join the team" Southern explained.

They have plans to open more together in the future.

"It's really about the sauce, but one of our most popular flavors is the Louisiana Dry Rub which is garlic butter based with cajun seasoning going through it. Another popular one is Garlic Pepper."

If he had to choose a favorite he said, 'I love the Garlic Parmesan."

The restaurant seats 24 people and has 10 employees. They are open 10:30am to 11pm Sunday through Thursday and 10:30am to Midnight Friday and Saturday.
