Chicken wings
 
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

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 05-07-2021 06:41 AM
Publix has awesome non breaded garlic parmesan wings. I order them allot. NYPD has good wings also.

1couple 05-07-2021 06:46 AM
Public. They have the best ones

DeeCee Dubya 05-07-2021 07:02 AM
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 05-07-2021 08:03 AM
Definitely Ramshackle in Leesburg. Voted best.

Chitown 05-07-2021 08:13 AM
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 05-07-2021 08:28 AM
Golden Corral
 
Used Golden Corral for wings several times.

kkingston57 05-07-2021 08:57 AM
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 05-07-2021 09:03 AM
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!

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.
