Heritage Restaurant Bar

Richmond District

97 recensies

Foodies seeking the best wings in San Francisco from a California Cuisine Restaurant need to look no further than the Heritage Restaurant Bar. They have maintained this distinction through a strong focus on sustainable and local ingredients that are used as they’re seasonably available. This results in delectable entrees like pan seared salmon and prime beef flat iron steak. The chicken wings are covered with their own house fermented hot sauce. The stone and wood-covered fireplace, vintage architecture and antique décor make the short drive from the Golden Gate Bridge well worth it.

Barnzu Korean Restaurant

$$$$

Modern Koreaans

Financieel District / Embarcadero

4.5

116 recensies

The uniquely designed bar – fully equipped with Avant Garde lighting and black metal shelves – is often the first thing to grab guests’ attention when they walk into Barnzu Korean Restaurant. The rest of the décor maintains an air of basic yet high-end. They offer contemporary Korean cuisine for their patrons, and this includes some of the best wings in San Francisco. Even after this filling appetizer, though, visitors typically move on to the Barnzu salad, kimchi arancini, stuffed chicken soup or braised beef short rib. Translated, the restaurant name means ‘food to drink while eating.’ Their impressive drink menu lives up to this.

1052 recensies

Located in the heart of the Richmond District, Fiorella offers their guests a variety of delectable Italian dishes. This includes nearly a dozen types of wood-fired pizza, several pasta selections and selections of antipasti ranging from marinated olives to Sicilian stewed octopus. Their herbed chicken wings buck the traditional buffalo variety and are seasoned with garlic and lemon. The unique lighting sculptures, local-focused murals and minimalist décor don’t necessarily scream ‘Old Country Italy,’ but offering some of the best wings in San Francisco more than makes up for that.

Magnolia Brewing - Haight

Haight

52 recensies

What started out as an artisan brewery in a tiny basement has grown into the Magnolia Haight. Draft handle décor, wooden barrels and paintings featuring hops serve as a reminder of this time long past, but more modern touches provide notice that the establishment has evolved. This is particularly obvious on their food menu that features Harrissa sausages, beer-battered local cod and fried eggplant sandwiches. Their contribution to the best wings in San Francisco category comes in either buffalo or sweet & sour chili sauce.

Chili House

Chinees

Richmond District

4.4

328 recensies

Not many chefs have served two Chinese presidents along with the Consulate General of China, but that's exactly what the head chef of Chili House has accomplished. His creations are known the world over, and both locals and tourists alike can’t rave enough about the menu. Offerings include Golden Pumpkin prawns, Mongolian beef and two versions of the best wings in San Francisco. Choosing between the Princess Chicken Wings and Chicken with Explosive Chili Pepper is often difficult. The Chinese décor is only outshone by the Kung Fu Tea and Sichuan Face Changing performances.

Not many eateries would venture to call themselves the 'gateway to San Francisco's wild side,' but Dirty Habit does so and lives up to the claim.

Giant gears fill an entire wall, and the lighting structures have a purely modern appearance. Their menu features lamb ribs, king salmon, chicken wings and more. Theirs are some of the best wings in San Francisco – featuring sweet soy and chili vinaigrette – and they’re enjoyed among a party atmosphere.

Anyone repeatedly visiting the same eatery may eventually grow tired of their fare, but this isn't the case at Aliment Restaurant. That's because their menu changes with the season, so there's always something new to enjoy. Offerings could include buttermilk fried chicken, steakhouse burgers, braised short rib and grilled salmon. Their mango habanero and spicy BBQ wings are also some of the best wings in San Francisco. Guests can enjoy them along with a sangria or their favorite cocktail, and watching TV projected on the wall or simply admiring the large wall of wing upstairs is an added bonus.

Deep within Union Square sits a modern Asian oasis known as E&O Kitchen and Bar. Wicker seating, unique lighting fixtures and wooden statues set a classy mood, and the menu is just as impressive. Popular options include poached prawn, chicken katsu, grilled steelhead and NY strip. Their Korean fried chicken wings are undeniably some of the best wings in San Francisco, and they feature chile jam, pickled radish and sesame seeds. Guests who show up at the right time – such as during the Asian Spice Route, lunar new year or Restaurant Week – get to experience special happenings.
