Best Places For Wings In The Sacramento Area

Some like them hot and some like them sweet. Some people order them crispy while others order them tender and juicy. There are those that prefer dipping them in bleu cheese dressing or ranch and have celery and carrot sticks on their plates as well. It's all about those tiny chicken treats known as buffalo wings, hot wings, chicken wings or wings. These are the places in the Sacramento that I tried out, but I'm sure there are more out there!

The choices of sauces are Mild, Medium, Hot, Inferno, Nuclear, Insane, Hot & Sweet, BBQ and Teriyaki. The mild sauce tasted great and the wings were crispy plus you get some extra on the side!

Made to order and with a smile! The owners are so nice and let me try a couple of sauces before I put in my order. The wings were nice and crispy and delicious inside. I got mild, but the heat meter goes up pretty high. Comes with carrot and celery sticks.

Claim Jumper

Roseville, CA 95678

They have a signature spicy sauce and also a delicious mild sauce. Based on flavor alone, this has to be one of the top favorites especially if they're ordered extra crispy. I tried these years ago and the memory is still in my mind! Yummy! Comes with celery and carrots and ranch dressing.

The sauce was good and you get a lot of veggies! They weren't as crispy as I hoped but I'm sure I can order them that way. There are a lot of Chicago Fire fans that love these wings!
