Great wings, lots of house made sauces and as a plus - they serve poutine. 

6. The Block - Detroit (Midtown)

The Block is a fairly new Midtown eatery serving classic American style cuisine with a little bit of elegance. Here's a note from a reviewer on Yelp: "We had ordered the wings with parm garlic for an appetizer. You can get these grilled or fried, obviously we went for fried! Let me tell you these were some real wings! Meaty, large and the sauce was fantastic. This was no bdubs."

Order a nice basket of wings with some checkered paper underneath and you'll be wondering why your friend, who claims to be a wings expert, never told you about Bugsy's.

Can't go wrong with this New Center spot. Lots of different wing options, sauces and rubs. Garlic parmesan wings are a fan favorite.

We dare you to try the "Hot Suicide" sauce. Or don't. Also, 50 wings for $40!
