Fire on the Mountain. Hands down. Don't forget the original location, though: 4225 N. Interstate

But the E. Burnside location is better, IMO.

Mee-Sen Thai on N. Mississippi has really great wings.

@jackattak I live around the corner from the Interstate location of FOTM, and second your opinion that the Burnside location is better... but only because the Interstate location is such a mob scene by 7 that I'm desperate for its popularity to die down.

Pok Pok. You heard ,me!

But the best wings won't be around until the end of August at the "Night of a Thousand Wings Party". Damn, that's a good wing party.

I get my wings......every time a bell rings.

Sorry. Couldn't help myself.

Original FOTM, Interstate. Looking forward to trying the Mee-San wings, too.

Pok Pok does have some incredible wings. Not buffalo style per se, but really good and really hot.

Fire on the Mountain, of course.

Buffalo Wild Wings sucks sooooo bad. I go there, hate it, say I won't go back. Then a year goes by, and I forget the acute nature of the suckiness and venture back in and it sucks just as bad.

@ Blabby & PAC -

THanks for letting me know Buffalo Wild Wings sucks. I always figured it did, being a chain and all (as 99% of restaurant chains suck hairy balls), but I live Downtown and love wings so my interest was always piqued.

Now I know. And knowin's half the battle.

14 signature sauces at B-Dub's.
Sure you can find bigger wings somewhere else but for the best sauces and hands down the best place to watch games is B-Dub's.

Yeah, I've been more than a little creeped out by the so-called "boneless wing." It appears to me to be what we old timers call a "chicken nugget".

The Angel Wings at Red Onion and Dang's are stuffed with pork and shrimp and then battered and fried.

Buffalo can suck it.

PRO TIP: At FOTM you can request them to be 'extra crispy' just like at Laurelwood.

*sigh* Chicken wings are one of the biggest things I miss since jumping on vegetarian bandwagon.
