Riverhead's Best: Wings
Wings are more than appetizers; they are bone-sucking goodness. Which joint makes the best? Time to weigh in.
Do you like them crispy or naked? Hot and spicy or lip-smacking sweet? We’re talking wings, of course.

I think Jerry and the Mermaid should be a nominee, even though they are a seafood establishment, they sell chicken wings by the boatload and likely have the most popular wings in town.
They are prepared deep fried but in a sweet soy sauce and can be mild, medium or hot, they are pretty awesome.

Jerry and the Mermaids have the best wings. Meaty, crunchy and a terrific sweet, yet tangy, sauce. Their temps are spot on. Served with blue cheese dessing and celery.
