A very limited menu, (I have the whole thing memorized) and a very small bar. But the food is worth it. I would recommend take out, but highly recommend the food either way. read more

Went here before a Friday night at the races (Lancaster) with my brother and nephew. We had a double order of hot wings. The wings were cooked perfectly. If you are in the area and are looking for some good Buffalo chicken wings, I definitely recommend this restaurant. Our waitress was very friendly and knew how to handle the whole bar/ restaurant!! She was handling the bar which was packed, a full dining room and even taking phone orders! I will be back here for sure read more

Sal's Lounge - Double order of hot wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - Depew, New York

Was searching for buffalo wings during an overnight stay near the Buffalo airport. Found this place and was greatly surprised. Tiny neighborhood bar literally on a little residential street. Waitress was very very nice. She literally called several liquor stores for us because we were looking for some alcohol to take back to the room. They were all closed but she went out of her way to be nice. Oh and the wings were actually really really good. And the "medium" Buffalo style were plenty hot. And I like hot stuff. Great neighborhood bar. Cheap beer. Great wings. read more

Sal's is a neighborhood bar, barely able to find. Seems most customers are right from the neighborhood. We go here for wings every now and then because the wife loves them. They are not your typical buffalo wing but more of a breaded wing. They are good but not the buffalo wing I crave. I give it 4 stars because the service is great. The food flies out of the kitchen and the beer is cold. Pizza logs are really good as well. read more

Sal's Lounge - Chicken Wings Near Me - Depew, New York

I've been going to Sals through at least 4 different owners and 1 thing is for sure, the wings are always Sal's original. If you like them hot, you have got to try Sals! I like mine medium at this point in my life which for Sals is a tangy BBQ taste. Small place but it fits more people than you would think with some great pub grub out of a kitchen that is the size of a linen closet. Decent parking. A totally different type of wing but truly outstanding! A nice crowd where you can have great conversation and feel welcome whether it's your 1st of 50th time. I was here tonight and they made the Cardinal sin of taverns. DO NOT EVER, have a political program on, especially the news in this day and age. It is a no win situation for a var especially with what's going on in this country. Don't do it. You are more that likely to have a lot of arguments and p'd off customers. My father owned a Tavern for over 40 years until her retired and 3 rules were strictly enforced: no tabs, no swearing and definitely no politics! A solid 5 if you learn the 3 rules of Taverns! read more

Three stars because it used to be incredible. The wings were HUGE and always covered in sauce. Now they're average sized (I know, it's the economy's fault but still). The wait staff is always very friendly and quick to keep service moving! read more

Buffalo's best kept secret for wings. I also recommend their sweet potato fries and deep fried mushrooms. If it's busy, please remember they're a small staff and can't always get to you quickly. read more

Have been coming here for almost 25 years, and even many times when back in town after leaving WNY 11 years ago. People come to Sals for the wings, but these are not typical wings, ie) what you find a Duffs/Anchor bar ,etc. They have a coating and a really unique sauce. We always get the medium which has a little bbq in it and a little heat. The majority of WNY'ers do not know about this place. For years I have been bringing family and friends from WNY, none who had ever heard of Sals, and after they tried the wings they were hooked. We just went last night and they were great. Awesome fries too!! Truly one of WNY's hidden gems. Mike from Raleigh, NC read more

I lived in buffalo for a brief two years. In that time I went to almost all of the wing places locals suggested....which added up to well over 40 different wing places. Sal's will always be #1 in my book. I was hesitant to post a review as it is a well kept secret, but it should be known that in Buffalo, Sal's is by far the best choice for wings. So shhhhh keep it a secret! read more

My boyfriend is a Lancaster native, and when I found out about Sal's and he "offered" to take me there, I yelled at him for waiting 2.5 years!!! His excuse, "Nicole, it isn't really YOUR type of place. It's divey, and nothing fancy". Fine, fine, I will give him the benefit of the doubt; I am picky when it comes to atmosphere. But if I'm prepared for "divey/hole in the wall", then I can handle it...gracefully! So we geared up last Sunday with his mother, and headed to Sal's. Less than 5 minutes from our driveway to Sal's....seriously, I've never been here?! Pulling up, you definitely would never know it was there, because you are smack dab in the middle of a quiet, residential neighborhood. We headed inside, and I was actually more impressed with the atmosphere, based on the picture he painted. Divey - yes, hole in the wall - not at all! There was one woman on duty, running the whole show. She was the bartender, our waitress, and the server. I can only assume she was not cooking the food, because that would've been merely impossible! I was shocked to find that they had Southern Tier on tap (yay!!). We ordered the sweet potato fries, garlic and parm wings, and the medium wings. The waitress explained to us that the medium were a medium/bbq. Everything was delish, minus the sweet potato fries - I would skip those. They were already covered in the honey/sugar mixture which I felt made them soggy and ruined them. The wings are wings from another world. They are smaller, almost resembling the size of "boneless wings", but they are covered in an extra deep-fried breading. The medium were our favorite. Prices were decent and on par with the amount of food you receive. Can't wait to go back to Sal's.....now that I know they are in my neighborhood :) read more

This place is a hidden gem buried in a Depew neighborhood. Best wings I've ever had. They are enormous, Flintstones sized monstrosities. If you like crispy wings, this is your place. The wings have a light breading which absorbs the wing sauce and adds to the crispness. Reasonable prices, cheap drinks, & Saranac on tap. Friendly service, I felt right at home. Do yourself a favor and check this joint out. I highly recommend it. read more

Sals is home to probably the best chicken wings and pizza logs around. This place is the meaning of neighborhood dive bar. A house converted to a bar/restaurant. Staff is always great. I suggest the honey Cajun wings and the medium are wonderful too. read more

Can I vote Sal's the #1 place to get a quesadilla in WNY?? Their wings are awesome, and also worthy of devouring, but the chicken quesadilla.....OMG. I think they use butter instead of oil to grill the tortilla. Also, the amount of cheese they use makes you want to praise a dairy cow. Anyway, Sal's itself is pretty awesome; low key bar in the heart of Depew. Don't come here if you like fancy because this place is anything but. However, its perfect for those who enjoy a local bar with regular patrons, domestic brews and, of course, amazing quesadillas. read more

Not to sound like a hipster, but Anchor Bar is so commercial, man... Seriously, I asked the desk clerk at the hotel when I first came here six years ago where he went for wings, and he turned me on to Sal's. I've come here at least once during every trip since...definitely the best I've ever had, and I've had them all over Buffalo, and all over the country. read more

I enjoy this place. Quiet and the food is always great. Hidden gem in Depew for those that know it. Quesadillas, wings and roast beef are the bomb. read more

Amazing wings and chicken tenders. Great drink prices and fast and friendly service! Love Sal's for a quick bite or during the game.

Favorite wing place ever!!!! Never disappointed and always good service. Not to mention the best chicken wings I've ever had. I recommend going there, you won't regret it. read more

Wings are great, staff pleasant. Wonderful combination of all ages! A really fun place. Like a " Cheers' for all. I recommend Sal's!

Finally headed out there for the wings after hearing mixed reviews. I got a single order of medium/hot and a friend got the medium chicken fingers. Waitress was nice and the food came out quick (not busy). The wings were quite small. Plump but small almost like boneless wings size. My friend's fingers were decent size but he said they were nothing special. I like the outer shell crispiness to the wings but the sauce itself was just regular Frank's. All in all they were ok but nothing special imo. I heard they changed in the past and the wings were enormous back in the day. If you like breaded style wings, Pony's in Middleport reigns champ. read more

In my opinion the best wings in Buffalo and a very comfortable atmosphere. Staff is friendly, the beer is good, the bar has a small hometown feel. Great for meeting a couple friends at and watching a game. read more

I was here years ago, it was excellent then... we ordered wings medium.hot.. the wings were from a parakeet. Smallest I have ever seen. Plus they were soggy... geez... I was really looking forward to these wings....disappointed ... read more

Best wings in Buffalo, Goodbar a close 2nd. Amazing service, amazing people, and great value all around. I wish them all the best!

I'm an ex-Buffalonian (logged 30 years) back visiting and went here based upon The Buffalo News saying this place has some of the best wings. Size of wings: ridiculously small - reminds me of BW3s. Blue cheese: absolutely terrible - the kind you get in a city outside of Buffalo that's trying to do wings but has no clue. Sauce: pretty good no problems there. Liked the bar... Very Buffalo friendly. Lots of locals. Down to earth. Just didn't like the food. I probably wouldn't have even mentioned the wing size but I was so annoyed by the blue cheese. I mean seriously blue cheese goes with wings like peanut butter and jelly go together - to serve that in Buffalo is inexcusable. If you are from out of town looking to try wings skip this place it doesn't represent. read more

If your looking for the Best wings around, and i should know i've been sampling wings from all over buffalo since the early 80's. Then this little neighborhood pub is worth checking out. Others like Duffs and Bar-Bil say they have the hottest wings in town but don;t let them fool you Sals is the place to go if you like big meaty juicy wings. Its a no nonsense place sports on the flat panels around the bar. Eat em hot at Sal's if you Dare! read more

It have not been to Sal's in quite a few years for some wings; therefore, when my wife and I decided to have wings for dinner the other night we ordered from there. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed in the wings. They were very small and they were not as good as I remember. The flavor and taste of the sauce was okay; however, as I mentioned the wings were just too small and not worth the price of $10.00 for a single order. I would recommend if one is craving wings to go to your local Pizza place and to avoid Sal's. read more

Amazing wings and prices. Local dive bar that hits on all cylinders. Would suggest to locals and visitors.

Very cosy small neighborhood bar. I have no experience with the food because it opens at 3 PM and is too late for lunch . The menu is all chicken and has 1 beef on weck choice. Takeout business seems active. there are 6 beers on tap and many bottle choices. Prices are well below the big time bar prices, which is great. The Tuesday and Thursday bartender is the owner. She is friendly and attentive. The 'locals' who are there are very friendly and easily engage in fun conversations. read more

Excellent wings. In my Top 5 in Buffalo... Which makes them Top 5 in the world. They do something a little different with their wings, rolling them in corn starch before they drop them in. The result is super crunch wings. Awesome. Love Sal's. read more

So disappointed. Wings were small, lean and tasteless. Granted I did order mild but I've never had mild wings that didn't have at least a hint of heat. I know Sals is practically a landmark in Depew so I am sad to say I would not recommend the wings. We ordered pickup so I cannot comment on the atmosphere of the bar or any other items on the menu. read more
