I noticed their Antipasto Salad was $14.00 and thought, "Well, this better be a damn good salad for $14". Well, when I got it, it was actually two full size salads, both well worth more than the $7 a piece.
The thing I really want to talk about though, is the wings. Man the wings are amazing! The owner is from Buffalo, and it shows. I had almost given up hope on finding good wings in Vegas. I've lived here for 5 years, and even the best places for wings that I'd tried prior to this fell short in one way or another from the amazing wings I'm used to back home on the east coast. Also, a lot of places where I even found "ok" wings, I'd go back a few weeks later and they'd change them. They'd all of a sudden be breaded or something.
Here is the list of stuff that automatically makes chicken wings a fail:
1. Breaded - There is literally NO reason to bread wings! If they are cooked right, the skin will be plenty crispy on their own without needing help from your crap ass breading.
2. Poor Quality chicken or small wings - When you finish eating a wing, the bone should be a pearlish white, not black, not purple with blood because they weren't cooked long enough. They shouldn't be the size of a golf pencil.
3. Old oil - I don't want my wings tasting like burnt fries/cheese sticks. Change your f***ing oil!!!!
4. Improper oil temp/cook time - Wings aren't supposed to be all watery. Get that skin crispy, or get that garbage out of my face.
5. Bad Sauce - Frank's red hot mixed with butter is not wing sauce! You make that **** yourself or you don't make it at all.
6. No Blue Cheese - Even if you don't like blue cheese, trust me when I say this, if a place only offers ranch with their wings, they don't take them seriously. Run! Run!!!!
LaBocce is the first place I've had in Vegas that hit absolutely 100% every one of these marks. Don't wait. Go now. Now!!!!
