| - This is definitely one of the better wing joints in Pittsburgh and its great that they have a wing night on Sunday (and another wing night on Tuesday!)! Now their wing night is AYCE for $12.50 currently, which is a decent deal, but you'll probably need to put away at least 18 to make it worth it compared to other deals. Of course one of the good parts about AYCE is you can try to try many of their delicious wing flavors, but they do have a five wing minimum per flavor and will only allow you to order 10 wings up front. After that, you have to order in 5 wing batches. Blue cheese and ranch are reasonable at 50 cents each. One of the really cool things about their wing night as well is that you can get the wings naked or breaded! I don't know of another place that gives you this option.
I have been here a few times for wing nights, nothing else, and therefore have tried a number of the flavors. The sauces I can recommend and which are probably their hottest flavors are Dante's Inferno and Cajun (which is wet). Both are delicious and actually really aren't that hot at all, but taste great. Next up, spicy BBQ, Buffalo Ranch, and Buffalo Bleu are all pretty solid as well. An OK flavor would be their Buffalo Garlic Parmesan, which is nice, but it uses shredded Parmesan, instead of sprinkled, and it is not caked on the wing like you would find at Fat Heads. I would not recommend their Thai sauce if you are looking for that sweet and spicy chili Thai flavor, as it taste more like honey BBQ (which is OK, but not what I am expecting).
As you can tell, I only have done the wings here, because I have only come on AYCE wing nights and they are good wings. They rank up there with, but maybe not quite as good as Bigham's Tavern and Fat Heads. The rest of menu sounds like its pretty good and maybe one day I'll venture off the beaten path, but I really like the wings. As for other takeaways, this place is pretty easy to find a table on Sunday nights and if you can get here for happy hour you can get some good drinks at great prices.
