With all of the wing spots on the south side of Chicago I was anxious to see what was different with this one so I gave Bronzeville Wings a try.
The first thing that I noticed was how easy to read the menu was. After placing an order, the deals and prices were also accurately displayed across Yelp, their website and inside the restaurant itself.
I ordered 4 of the "3 wing specials" to share with my wife. I tried the following flavors: Gold Butter and Honey Teriyaki. My wife had the Bourbon and said it was really flavorful and good.
- Gold Butter was amazing! It was nothing like I have ever tasted in a wing sauce. The flavor notes of mustard, and cumin combined with a zesty, sweet hit gave my tastebuds happiness. Just thinking about this sauce while I write makes me want some now.
- The Honey Teriyaki was also good. It had a nice balance of sweet and salty which is what you'd expect from a teriyaki sauce.
- The Wings were on the small side but they were WHOLE WINGS. I got out the door paying under $18 for 12 WHOLE WINGS and a ton of fries. The wing sauces weren't the only good thing. The wings were seasoned well. They had that type of seasoning that you get when someone is truly taking their time, putting in effort and love to season wings. This great seasoning gives their restaurant a unique fresh fried chicken smell that will have you adding another 3 wing special to your order!
- The fries were ok and I hope to see them improve here. They were covered in lemon pepper, a little too much lemon pepper. I'd love to see them add sauce to the fries and maybe just a tad bit of salt and pepper. At least this is how I will be ordering my fries next time, covered in Gold Butter Sauce.
Overall I give Bronzeville Wings a 5 of 5 stars. This is a wing place that takes wings seriously, offers whole chicken wings, has unique sauces that taste fresh and homemade giving you flavors that you can only get from Bronzeville Wings all while not breaking your pockets!
