5th. International Wing Factory

Anywhere that serves wings in buckets with a choice of over 20 sauces and huge portions gets our vote. Multiple locations around town as well mean you’ll never be far away from awesome wings.

3rd. Dinosaur Barbque

They focus on all things BBQ in here and the hardest task you will have is avoiding the other stuff like brisket and burgers on the menu and sticking to the wings. If you do manage it you’ll be rewarded with some of the best ones you’ve ever eaten. Smokey and incredible taste.

2nd. Seoul Chicken

Another Korean option on the list and with very good reason because they focus on chicken alone in here and it is off the charts good. Large variety of wings including specials but if you can stomach it go with the spicy ones with line. Seriously worth the trip.

1st. Distilled

In the heart of Tribeca this is a high end pub where you get super food without having to go high end restaurant in either atmosphere or prices. The wings are a work of art and cooked twice as well as getting glazed to get that amazing finish. You’ll want more than one portion is the only issue. Absolutely stunning.
