3 Chicago Buffalo Wings Ranked Among Best In America

CHICAGO, IL — Step aside, deep dish–there's a new Chicago food gaining headlines: Buffalo wings. According to a recent report, three restaurants in the city serve some of the best wings in the country. The Daily Meal compiled a ranking of the top 25 chicken wings in the United States, and three Chicago locations made the cut.

Jake Melnick's Corner Tap near Magnificent Mile ranked No. 15 on the list. The Daily Meal called the bar's wings "flawless" and "evenly fried."

"Big, meaty, and juicy, they’ll make a wing lover out of those who swear they’re not a fan. It’s hard to put your finger exactly on what makes these wings so perfect, but they’re so good," The Daily Meal reported.

Buffalo Joe's in Evanston also made the list (No. 19) and Bird's Nest in Chicago's West DePaul neighborhood ranks No. 20.

Several New York locations made it into the list's top five, including Duff's Famous Wings, ranking No. 1. The list left out big chains.
