Superwings

Superwings is probably my favorite place to eat in Crown Heights.

They sell wings by the pound. BY. THE. POUND. I can go up to the counter and say "Can I have 3 pounds of wings?" and then they give it to me. Amazing. I wish I could order everything by the pound.

They have seven different types of wings of various tropical fruit and spice flavors. PIneapple, Mango and Jerk are words I use often there.

You can get a chicken wing meal for $8 which includes a pound of wings, a side and either an iced tea or a lemonade. I usually get sweet potatoes for a side which are AMAZING. The ice tea is fantastic.. i don't know if it is a mix but i don't care either.

Lastly, the people operating the place are amazingly nice. Everyone behind the counter is a sweetheart and will converse with you in more of a "im getting paid to do this" way.

Check it out. Completely worth it.

Good to know ... thanks!

Looks like a place has finally opened that will get me to cross Bedford.

How many wings in a pound? .

I have yet to count as I am generally eating them in a state of euphoria, but I believe 10 wings is a pound. 1/2 a pound is most certainly enough for a meal but I am a big guy (height, not girth) and I refuse to eat anything measure in fractions. Whole numbers is the way to be.

Do you mean 10 whole wings (2 joints each), or 10 wing segments a la buffalo wings? If the former, I agree that 5 is probably enough for a meal for many people, but I don't see how 5 single joint segments could be enough for any adult.

One day you'll learn that fear-mongering and guilt-tripping are highly ineffective methods of persuasion.

I don't know what island they're talking about, but in my experience that sounds like an oxymoron.

No, the Antilles aren't known for speed, or customer service. But they have a killer way with tongue-in-cheek.

I stopped by Superwings last night (I'm the dashing customer, thanks!) and absolutely loved it! I had the ginger buff wings they were tasty and moist. But the best part of the experience was just how nice all the folks that work there are. Far to often good product WITH great and friendly service can't be found in the same establishment and the people there seem to have both. I wish Superwings the best of luck. They will be seeing be allot!

Wait, was the full wing with join section VS the chopped wing in to 2 pieces ever answered?

Dude and I made a completely impromptu visit to Superwings today.

Had it been planned, I would have had my camera to give a full report. There would have been 2 pictures:

1. Picture of food as purchased.
2. Picture taken 15 min later of chicken bones and grubby napkin.

But I did get a menu. Here it is for those to lazy to go to mysuperwings.com:



Here are the facts:
I had the 1/2 lb combo. It came with 5 wings, and two sides.
I chose sweet potato fries and mango salad as the sides.
I chose Island BBQ as my wing flavor.
It came with a lemonade (they don't have soda).
It cost $5.99

Here is my review:
This place is in a different league than Wing Wagon on Flatbush. Unlike Wing Wagon, the wings are not fried to the point where you know you are going to need Plavix in the future. Wing Wagon just focuses on quantity, this place focuses on quality as well.

The sides are genuinely yummy and fresh. They are way better than the droopy carrots and celery of Wing Wagon.

The Wings come in a variety of flavors, not simply levels of spice (hot ---> mild).

Island BBQ was yummy. ...I will likely return to try the other flavors. Next time I'll get the 1 LB combo for $9, 10 wings. The 1/2 lb was enough, but next time I will be more of a pig.

P.S. Dude got some scraps, and enjoyed them, but he is not a picky eater or very articulate. He clearly thought it was a fine place to stop.

Just finished some Chili Cilantro and Spiced Rubbed wings. The flavors were great, not over powering but balanced and uniquely tasty. The salads I had corn, and mango were both simple and good, a nice addition to an order of wings. The wings arrived cold but to be fair I live near the border of their delivery zone. I will definitely order again to try the other flavors even if I have to pop them in the oven for a few to heat them up. Maybe Super Wings could invest in some insulated delivery bags?
