Appetizers: As this is a pretty serious finger-food restaurant, most of the menu could be interpreted as “appetizers”, but the items that really stand out as starters are the French Fries, which come in small and large sizes and can be smothered in cheese, the upgraded Waffle Fries ($3.99) which come in plain, Cajun, garlic parmesan, or ranch varieties, and the epic Loaded Chili Scoops ($6.49) with chili, cheese, sour cream, onions and jalapenos.

Also available are grilled quesadillas, stuffed with cheddar cheese ($3.99), chicken and cheddar ($6.49), or the monstrous “All the Way” ($6.99) with chicken, cheese, jalapenos, green peppers, onions and tomatoes.

Entrees: Starting simple, grab big sandwich, like the BBQ Chicken ($5.99) chargrilled or fried on a bun with lettuce, tomatoes and onions, or the Pulled Pork Sandwich ($7.95) with tender, juicy pulled pork smothered in BBQ sauce and surrounded by a fluffy bun.

Delicious wraps are also available, like L.I.’s Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap ($5.99) with juicy boneless chicken tenders rolled up with lettuce, tomato, onions and ranch dressing.

Wings-n-Things also offers three chargrilled burgers in plain, cheese and BBQ varieties ($5.99, $6.99 and $7.49).

But the grand crown of Wing-n-Things is their chicken, which comes in wing, boneless wing, and tender varieties, which are each hand-breaded in a crispy batter and deep fried, then loaded with one of the many savory sauces. One can order anywhere from 7 wings ($6.49) all the way up to 150 pieces ($85.00), or 5 tenders ($6.49) all the way up to 100 pieces ($104.99). Each batch of unbelievably flavorful and juicy chicken comes with bleu cheese dip and celery sticks. With 16 different sauces, including Hot, BBQ, Jamaican Jerk, Spicy Teriyaki, Lemon Pepper and Cajun, you’re sure to find a perfect match for your chicken.

Also available as entrees are tender racks of ribs, Philly cheese steaks, and pierogies served with sautéed onions and sour cream.

All these awesome meals can be paired up with one of Wings-n-Things’ many side orders, including Bacon Broccoli Cheddar Bites ($5.75), Homemade Mac & Cheese ($2.99 for small, $5.99 for large), and warm sweet cornbread ($1.25).

Signature Dish: The boneless wings simply cannot be missed at Long Island Wings-n-Things. These big, all-white meat pieces of chicken heaven are so juicy, tender and smothered in tangy, flavorful sauce, that you’ll invariably wish you ordered more. Personal recommendation: Spicy BBQ.
