New Jersey restaurants serve up some pretty spectacular wings. I can easily think of a dozen places to satisfy a craving, all sure to delight your taste buds. Still, two Garden State eateries stood out among the others to top a global list featuring 22 of the best wings in the world. Buzzfeed, a popular international website, reached out to their readers and reviews came in from coast to coast. Restaurants with top notch wings were selected in states including Missouri, Ohio and California, as well as countries including Britain and Singapore. TWO New Jersey restaurants made the list.

Facebook/Pic-A-Lilli Inn Pic-A-Lilli Inn is a New Jersey icon with a massive fan following. Crispy and delicious, their buffalo wings will blow your mind. This restaurant got its start in 1920 but began to really grow into what it is today in 1937, when it was renamed after the owners spotted a can of relish. Not only was Pic-A-Lilli catchy, the owners were named Pickett and Lillian - perfect, just like their wings. Sauces include mild, spicy, hot, smoker and garlic parmesan.Other favorites include their diverse selection of finger food including fried pickles and broccoli & cheddar cheese bites. Pic-A-Lilli is open 7 days a week from 10 a.m. - 2 a.m.. They offer dine in or take out. Indulge at 866 Route 206, Shamong.
