50 Best Chicken Wings in Chicago

“We went last night for the first time… Great menu options, food was delicious, portions were perfect, staff was really nice. I had the Grilled Salmon, he had the Braised Pork Shoulder…definitely recommend both.“

“Great Food. Would highly recommend.“

“I awoke this morning, filled with regret and resentment. I nearly stayed under my supple, cozy sheets. Yet, I prevailed. I stumbled upon this Elegant establishment. I needed something greasy and practical for a hangover. I also needed to watch the Minnesota gophers beat up Rutgers (do they even have a mascot)? I ordered the double smash burger, and went to work. The service was quick, very quick, which made me believe the burger would be subpar. My first bite awoke me. I was so back. Every following taste left me with childlike joy, much like a young Jack Slunecka frolicking through the South Dakota prairies. I can not recommend this establishment more. Thank you Parlay, not only for giving me strength. But, giving me the motivation to carry on, and make the world a better place. I Love you so so much.“

“Amazing dine-in pizza spot. Unique pizzas by the slice means everyone can try something different. Their pulled pork pizza is the best slice I've ever eaten, bar none. Cheese curds are delicious too!“

“Good Buffalo chicken strips and onion rings!“

“This place was awesome, delicious and insanely fast! Music was banging! 12/10 must do in Chicago. I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a more tender, delicious pork rib. Sooo good!“

“Lovely place. Good staff. Yummy food“

“Best in town same food !!!sauce as good ever !!!!!!63rd & halsted“

“Budacki's is a classic neighborhood stop for fast eats. It boasts a broad menu of comfort food, from Polish dogs Chicago-style to gyros and Korean fare. It's not a large or contemporary space, but around rush hour, you'll find it full of regulars from blue and white collar workers to young families and school kids. If you're visiting, there are other spots that do something similar. But if you're new to the neighborhood, be sure to make the trip, and you'll easily find yourself a regular too.“

“It was very fresh, not over seasoned and not greasy ???

Vegetarian options: Fries, cheese sticks, coleslaw

Parking: There is street parking available

Kid-friendliness: Calm area, business atmosphere

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs, handicap parking“

“Good food, prompt service.“

“Hot fresh wings! Too much food! Good value!“

“Whenever we’re in the area we go there. I like the shrimp and pizza. My wife likes the chicken. The prices are good. And so is the service.“

“Very clean and enjoyable music with appealing atmosphere. I ordered the sliced chicken Au jus sandwich my wife had the patty melt both with the kettle house chips which both were excellent and like to do a shout out for Alex she was are server and very pleasant and knowledgeable about the establishment which helped because was our first time. Will definitely be back.“

“I was born and raised on the south side of Chicago and I love coming to the lake front Especially in the summer and now they have music it is great“

“Good portions, delicious food and cozy environment“

“My son went to a concert at the Vic Theatre and couldn’t find his car right away. They were so kind and gave them something to drink and a slice of delicious pizza. What a great place.“

“best chicken wings,fried rice and fire chicken I've eaten. this place is a j hidden gem“

“Hi I went about midnight on wed 7/30 thru the drive thru. Wanna give a shoutout to ELIZABETH. she was so nice and cordial. She's a professional star. Thanks Elizabeth, for being patient when I was figuring what to order and waited for me patiently. Good job and keep up the good work. Patricia martinez“

“The place was clean and had a modern ambiance, but unfortunately, the customer service was highly unsatisfactory. I requested a cup of water, only to be refused with the statement, "we no longer provide that service." How is it possible that a paying customer is denied the basic courtesy of water while waiting? It is disheartening to encounter establishments in predominantly black neighborhoods that willingly disregard the dignity of their customers. This issue needs immediate attention and rectification“

“If you would have told me this would be good, I wouldn't have believed you. But it was great and I was shocked. Even more shocking was the boneless were better than the regular wings!! It was fresh and crispy. I got different sauces and they were all good. Fast food is especially disappointing but this time it's different.“

“The Xtra hot flavor on the chicken sandwich is blazing hot 🥵 but still full of flavour. Loved it.“

“always a great time nice beer garden“

“Food very good and customer service is great“

“The wings themselves are always cooked just right - crispy skin, juicy inside. And the sauce selection? Forget about it. Lemon Pepper is a classic for a reason, but I'm also a huge fan of Mango Habanero

for that sweet-and-spicy combo“

“The five stars is not the restaurant but for the one guy in there actually trying to give good customer service. I had a pick up there and they tried to give me cold food and the African American gentleman who was the cashier working there made sure my food was fresh. It was very unprofessional for the other workers there to argue with him and try to blame him for their incompetence. I didn’t catch his name but it was today around 630u. Thank you for having some common sense.“

“Really great food and people in most importantly best costumer service.“

“This place just breathed new life into me on a day that was...A LOT to say the least. So tasty, thanks y'all! ✨“

“Great local spot for wings, pizza, beers, music & vibes. Staff it great. It does get pretty busy or packed some times so having patience is key if you are going in hangry. Overall a great selection if you want the neighborhood bar outing.“

“Lusha Pizza serves up a seriously good pie. Classic New York-style with a flavorful, perfectly balanced sauce and cheese combo. The undercarriage is just right: crispy with a nice char. I ordered it to go, and while the crust was a little chewy once it cooled down, that’s to be expected with takeout. Fresh out of the oven, I bet it’s even better. Highly recommend if you're craving authentic, no-nonsense NY-style pizza!“

“Best chicken wings in the whole city! The spicy sauce has a nice kick.“

“Omg this is the best BBQ place I ever had. Their sauce is spicy but juicy. I'm from Highland Indiana but now I live about 10 minutes away (79th and Ashland), and I def be coming back. Yes be prepared for little long wait.“

“Delicioso! Me encanta 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“Let me start off by saying, I rock with this place!! I’ve been going for years since the smaller location. The customer service on this experience was HORRIBLE!! I asked for extra sauce on my Jumbo tip and link combo, small turkey tip, and 6 wings ($55). When the cashier relayed the request to the lady who was preparing the food she got a real crappy attitude like I was asking for too much. I guess because they were almost closing. I asked her what she said and she went all off. “I wasn’t talking to you I was talking to her!” I asked what her name was and she refused to give it to me. No name tags present or I wouldn’t have asked. Then she directed me to the manager who was also preparing food for any concerns that I may have. I asked the manager Nivia Battle (I think that’s what she said) was she required to give me her name. She said no. Her attitude was crappy as well. Just negative energy behind the glass. Except for the cashier. I also told the that they need to improve their customer service and that I WILL BE BACK!! I have no complaints about my order at all. Food was great!!! They just need to get someone back there that’s actually going to do their job without being so nasty.“

“The right vibe for every event and eclectic crowd“

“I am probably not a very reliable reviewer of wings, but I’ve had quite a few over the years and from a variety of places. Chicago’s Chicken Shack has some of the best. Perfectly seasoned, juicy and crispy. Delicious mild sauce. After being disappointed by Harold’s over the years, this place is my go-to. Service is very friendly!“

“Had a wonderful experience at wingstop. I have not received such good service at wingstop before. I wish there were more stores like this one with such great customer service!!!! Truly enjoy the food and overall environment when entering the establishment!“

“Food is freshly made and they carry high quality for a good price. I also love that they do not serve any pork products! My food tasted so good and service was quick and quality! Highly recommend if you want tasty food at a reasonable price!“

“By far the best Wingstop I've been to in the city! Most places are super greasy but the 3 times we've been here the chicken is relatively fresh, crispy, and not too greasy. Same goes for the fries! Keep up the great work please!“

“I love going there for family doings and i love seeing my family at the place they own and how successful they are ��“

“the perch catfish and chicken wings are all yummy and on point. great deal for great food. you better go get you some. 😂“

“We normally go to Harold's #88 when in Illinois.. so when they told us they could not make us a big order of chicken I was disappointed...my aunt suggested that we go to this one and they had the best chicken out of any Harlod's Chicken that we ever been to even when it was cold it was still good best chicken ever.... Remember Harold's Chicken not Harold's Chicken shack that's something different... Now this is my fav and when ever we come to Illinois I definitely will be back....Thanks“

“The District Manager, at this location, Lawrence, totally transformed my first experience. My first visit did not go well and I completed the survey detailing my negative interaction with the staff. Not only did Lawrence follow up with a personal phone call, he asked me to return to the store so that I could get the true Wingstop experience! The store was clean, the food was freshly prepared, the atmosphere was very welcoming and Lawrence gave me VIP treatment. I sincerely appreciate the fact that he understands customer service, cares about the reputation of this business and not only espouses those beliefs, he personally implements and executes his high standards. Thank you Lawrence, I will remain a customer, because of you!“

“Had a large group of 8 and everything was absolutely delicious!!! First time there and we will definitely be back. Get the horchata slushy!“

“While visiting Jake Melnick's has been one of my favorite places to hang out, grab a beer (Maplewood Pilsner), and a bite to eat! April was our bartender and such a joy to talk to! People like her make it a place you definitely want to go back!“

“We are from Puerto Rico but my son lives in MN and he was the one who told us to eat here and to try the deep dish pizza....wow!!!! 100/10!!!! The people there were very friendly and the service was excellent! And I loved the place, I would definitely have to visit again“

“Ate at Big Sauce and they had some of the best wings I’ve ever eaten. Loved the “original” flavor the most.“

“On point just need to change signage about free pop w lunch special“

“Had the best Bbq chicken pizza. Highly recommend Rosatis. Pizza made fast and fresh“

“They have good food catfish filets and chopped tenders the cashier is very friendly been there for years I enjoy coming there for that cheese mild food always hot thanks Buffalo Sams“
