Wings Over Albany

I do intend to post pictures, but I still need to program myself to whip out my Blackberry before I chow down.

Wings over Albany is a little chain restaurant in Guilderland that specializes in boned and boneless wings. I almost always order the boneless because they are less messy. They have FIVE levels of heat in buffalo style sauces and 17 other flavors of sauces.

My experience is very limited here, I have only ordered three menu items. All have exceeded my expectations. The only sauces I have had there are the buffalo style sauces. They have named their buffalo sauces Wimpy, Crusin' Altitude, Red Alert, Jet Fuel, and After Burner. I have only had Red Alert and Jet Fuel. I almost always get Red Alert. Five years ago, I might of have gotten Jet Fuel once in awhile, but not today. If you get Jet Fuel or higher, prepare to tear up. You'll also need a 2L bottle of soda. The boneless wings themselves are very tender and juicy, and not really as crispy as you would expect from your average boneless wing, not really a problem for me. The blue cheese is top notch in my book. Nice and chunky. A slight modification of the straight boneless wings is a buffalo chicken wrap. I usually order this with extra lettuce which sort of makes it a hand-held salad. The last menu item that I am familiar with is their fries. They are very good. You will not be dissapointed.

I always order in advance, whether I am taking out or eating in their 6-7 table dining area. It takes about 20 minutes when they have no customers for food to come out, and if it is lunch time, probably 45 minutes.


I usually eat here about once every two weeks. They are located on Western ave across from the west most Crossgates entrance. Their phone number is very easy to remember 862-WING.
