To that end, two restaurants quickly come to mind: Local Heroes and Wild Wings.

Local Heroes has been a fairly consistent restaurant, good wings, great wings actually, come in different sizes, giant mutant sized ones and normal size ones. At Local Heroes you are always greeted with a smile, the game is on, you can even get a shuttle to the game if the Sens are playing in town. Local Heroes puts on a great event on Super Bowl Sunday,  and makes you wanna go there again and again.

Not much can be said about Wild Wings, the selection is HUGE. If you are hungry enough you can even order 1000 wings for about $700, now ain’t THAT a treat? Large selection – nothing tastes that great, everything is frozen, and I can pass on the fried pickles, no thanks. Service? Well if a server rolls her eyes at you, odds are, not great service. That is all I have to say about that place.

Now, where else in Ottawa can you get a good pound of wings? I am gonna tell you where (and its not somewhere you are gonna think off).  The game was on, fans were on edge, asked for a beer, got it FAST, nice and cold.  Looked at the menu, yup, I’ll go for the wings. The wings came  plated with the usual boring salary and carrot and a lump of sour cream, but the wings where well cooked, juicy, the sauce was nice, not over the top, and the price was much better than I  expected.

Where is this place? What is it called? Introducing the Senate Chambers, located on the U.S.side of the Ottawa Airport. Airport food? Good? Yup. Is it worth buying a ticket to the U.S., getting a passport, going through customs just to sample a plate of wings? NOPE, but if you are ever on that side of the airport, give it a shot, you won’t be disappointed.

Where are your favorite Ottawa wings restaurants?
