Chicken Factory, Hoboken, NJ. They are not your typical wing, and they also offer half or full chickens cooked the same way. I like the heat and creative spices elsewhere, but this place is GOOD. Sweet and Spicy is my recommendation.

Main Event for chicken wings-hands down! Although I love the food from many of the other nominees as well!

I haven't been there in a while but I would say the Main Event. The food at the Plainview Diner is mostly poor. It's more a place to meet friends than get a good meal.

In truth, I have never ordered Chicken Wings in any of the other places listed, so can't compare, ( don't think of them as being on a menu in a Chinese Restaurant, so eliminate them ) - same goes with Italian Eateries - but with Fireside, they have always been known for their chicken, lines at that counter, you need numbers, especially so in the warmer months ~ and so, I figure, the product has got to be fresh! Have never been disappointed - and order some of each ( sadly, there are never any leftovers! )
