Birdbox

The Best Chicken Wings In San Francisco

"Birdbox is the casual Birdsong spin-off that’s home to an excellent fried chicken sandwich with the entire chicken claw still attached. But don’t let fried toes distract you from the fact that this counter-service South Beach spot also runs a mean chicken wing operation. Choose between flats and drumettes (or tenders, for the boneless crowd). We love the ones coated in nutritional yeast, which adds a mildly cheesy and extra crunch to each bite. There’s a sampler of all five of their housemade sauces, but if you’re trying to narrow it down, go creamy buttermilk ranch or spicy mayo." - lani conway, julia chen 1, ricky rodriguez
