Best Chicken Wings
Luciano's Pizza and Wings
Published: March 24, 2005
The chicken wing took off in Buffalo, New York, so it's no wonder that the best chicken wings in town are made by a man who spent most of his life steeped in the near-mythological upstate New York pizza-and-wing scene. Kris Ferreri, owner of Luciano's Pizza and Wings, comes from a family whose Buffalo roots go back to the turn of the last century, and what he's brought to the Mile High City is a pitch-perfect copy of the best chicken wings in the world -- a fact that Ferreri never lets anyone forget. Available mild, medium or hot and served in multiples of ten with celery and blue-cheese sauce, just as God intended, Ferreri's wings are fried long, served steaming hot, and so good that even the most jaded Buffalo ex-pats have to admit that he's serving the real deal.
TOP BUFFALO HOT WINGS

Why it's tops: The Buffalo-born owner perfectly replicates the best known dish from northwestern New York. The big wings are fried long enough to crisp up before being dipped in Frank's Red Hot sauce and served tongue-singeing hot with cooling, thick blue cheese dip and celery. Once you try Luciano's version you'll have a hard time accepting the imitators.

My husband and I are from Buffalo and we've been searching for an authentic chicken wing ever since moving here and we finally found it at Luciano's! They fry their wings - the way you're supposed to - and they serve their wings with blue cheese - again, the way you're supposed to serve wings!
Their pizza and subs are awesome too. Just like we can get at home!

These are the best Wings in Denver. No one can compete with these wings. They have won best wings in Denver Rocky Mountain News 4 straight years and the owner is from Buffalo where I am from.

If you are really into wings, especially Buffalo Wings then you Must go to Luciano's! I was skeptical at first because I have never tasted an authentic Buffalo Wing outside of Buffalo, but I was shocked when I had these wings! The taste was on the money, and it actually made me miss the east side of Buffalo where I grew up and lived for the first 20 years of my life. Same thing for the pizza! No joke it really brought a tear to my eye. Anyway, I would say going to Luciano's is something special, as I have to travel from Thornton just to get a taste of home.
