I was asked to get chicken wings for a mothers day party.
Any suggestions as to what restaurants have the best wings for take out ?

Thanks, Don

Publix , they have plain, breaded plain and plain hot and spicy all are very good. By plain I mean non breaded.

PDQ has chicken tenders, not wings, but they are very good with several types of sauce.

I enjoy the garlic parmigiana wings from Fresh Market.

I've always liked Gators Dockside for wings. Lately I've been getting wings from "It's Just Wings". They're online order only (doordash.com has them) and they're very good and it's done through Chili's. I've done delivery, but also did pick up to save a few dollars and you can get large quantities. You can get 32 bone in or 44 boneless wings for $32 plus tax (and delivery if you go that route).

I'm also a Hooter's wings guy but closest one is Ocala.

You also get curly fries. A one person order is 8 bone in wings with fries for $10 plus tax (and delivery if you go that route).

Same here, but I'm not a huge fan of cold wings - when they are no longer crispy and hot, so rarely do the delivery option.

Legends in Fruit land Park. Lots if different flavors.

Publix does a very good job on chicken wings. I like Gator's Dockside too, but their wings are pretty small compared to Publix.

There is a difference between price and value. Publix for fried, rotisserie chickens, and according to these posts, true of wings, uses far larger chickens than the others. I used to regularly go to a diner and the owner became sort of a friend. Old story but, I recall him saying he would buy big Turkeys as the quantity of meat to bones would be higher in a larger turkey

Closest to real Buffalo wings I used to get in Buffalo NY.

Just cook up a batch and add your own seasonings

Your post is irrelevant. There's nothing to do with chicken wings like the guy asked about. When I talk about gasoline?

McCall's Restaurant in Spanish Springs (located in the bowling alley just off the square ----- don't let that put you off). Owner is from Buffalo. He knows how to make great Buffalo chicken wings.

Without any doubt, Cousin Vinnies on 441 in Leesburg are the best around.

Ramshackle Cafe in Leesburg has outstanding grilled wings with many sauces and they will stay hot til you get back to the Villages.

[bjd0105]

Publix has awesome non breaded garlic parmesan wings. I order them allot. NYPD has good wings also.

[1couple]

Public. They have the best ones

[DeeCee Dubya]

Believe it or not, Domino’s Pizza delivers great perfectly cooked wings. I like the habanero flavor.

We really like Gators Dockside grilled wings in Spanish Springs. They do make them for takeout. We get them plain with sauce on the side! Not cheap but big and tasty!

Sounds like with all the differing opinions it's time for daily road trips to search out the perfect wing spot. Please report back!!

IMHO being from western NY I'd pay attention to the NY guy with the Beef O'Bradys recommendation!!

[JudyB]

Definitely Ramshackle in Leesburg. Voted best.

[Chitown]

Don, hands down, O’Shucks on 301 1/2 block south of 44. Very large. They make BBQ, Teriyaki, Buffalo, or a Hawaii style
Pineapple orange glaze, I get the mild dry rub and get blue cheese or bbq dipping sauces.

[Hackercraft]

Used Golden Corral for wings several times.

[kkingston57]

In my opinion, Publix does have some of the best. Make sure that you get the spiced wings. They are spiced somewhere between mild and medium, without any wet sauce.

[Emkay56]

We love the wings at Gators Dockside in Brownwood. We get the dry rub, extra crispy and they are fabulous! I don't like breaded or fatty wings and the dry rub makes them nice and crisp.

Gators Dockside in Spanish Springs. I get them grilled with Jerk rub. Best in TV!

I'll second O'Shucks. Best wings I've had so far. Wide variety of dry rubs and wet sauces. Their "O'Shucks" sauce is outrageous! ... Enjoy!! :MOJE_whot:

I am going to tell you all something, knowing there are those who have laughed me down about certain things I use in the kitchen occasionally. But I am asking some of you to try this sometime, for a quick meal.

In the freezer section of Walmart, try their honey barbecue chicken wings.

I know you can’t judge a restaurant by its menu, but this looks like a place I have to try!

[meme5x]

The best wings I’ve had is O’Shucks in Wildwood.. everything there is great..a small, not fancy place..

Sam's Club has excellent honey barbecue or buffalo frozen wings. Just heat them up in a crockpot. Easy peasy. That's my favorite thing to take to potlucks.

Applebees without a doubt.

[pauld315]

The best are at Gator's Dockside in Lake Sumter Landing. Wings are also the special on Monday and Wednesday when they are 0.75 apiece for dine in.

"Not fancy" is an understatement. But, good food.

[REDCART]

We tried Cousin Vinnies in Leesburg for a late lunch/early dinner today. They’re famous for the 37 flavors of chicken wings. They were good but I think I like breaded wings better. There’s a Korean bbq chain called Bon Chon chicken which imho nails them perfectly.

[bilcon]

The original Buffalo Chicken Wings that started the wing craze uses Frank's Hot Sauce among other things. Cody's wings are large and good. I also agree that Beef O'Brady's is the closest to the "real thing" in TV.

There is no Gators Dockside in Lake Sumter. It is RJ Gators.

Best wings? Buy a NINJA Food Smart XL Grill, 20% off W/coupon, Bed and Bath.. Set "air fry" @ 375 for 20 minutes....Better quality, quantity, and tasting than any take out, always at the ready!

Food was good but we made the mistake of sitting outside.Never had so many mosquito bites in our lives.

Mentioned it to the waitress who had a can of bug spray at her disposal. Asked her why she didnt say anything before and she shrugged her shoulders.

If anyone goes there strongly suggest sitting inside.

[REDCART]

Over the years many people we know have raved about the food at O’Shucks. However, we stopped there to buy a T-shirt for a friend who appreciates unusual T-shirts, and came away with the impression that O’Shucks was a real dive and God knows what the kitchen looks like.

Publix deli. Suggest making sure that you get their spicy wings. Regular/non spicy are a little bland for my palate.

Reasonably priced, but going up. Some restaurants have "market price" for wings.

Did u sit and eat the food? Or just walked in to buy the t-shirt? Perhaps u should have sat and dined a bit.

But i guess u came from somewhere that never had great restaurants and now think country clubs here are fine dining?
