Got a hankering for chicken?
Hoodline crunched the numbers to find the best affordable chicken hot spots in Las Vegas, using both Yelp data and our own secret sauce to produce a ranked list of the best spots to venture when cravings strike.
1. Voodoo Wing Co.
Topping the list is VooDoo Wing Co. Located at 6728 W. Cheyenne Ave., it is the highest-rated affordable chicken spot in Las Vegas, boasting four stars out of 366 reviews on Yelp.
Yelper Jennifer T., who reviewed VooDoo Wing Co on Dec. 2, wrote, "Wings were good but lacked sauce. Don't expect wings like Buffalo Wild Wings. These wings were dry. The garlic parmesan wings lacked seasoning. My favorite was the mango habenero, but it was spicy."
Nancie J. noted, "We ordered 24 bone-in wings and we got four different flavors, mango habanero, garlic parmesan, sweet heat and lemon pepper. ... The mango habanero, hands down, the best. The prefect amount of sweet and hot."
2. Above the Crust
Above the Crust, located at 7810 W. Ann Road, Suite 150, in northwest Las Vegas, is another top choice, with Yelpers giving the affordable spot that features pizza, wings and more, four stars out of 327 reviews.
Curious about who's behind the business?
"Phyllis hails from Brooklyn, N.Y., and was raised in a big Italian family," the business says on its Yelp page. "She brought all of her family recipes and traditions to Las Vegas back in 1992 and has shared her gift with the city ever since."
As to what the business is known for, "We serve up fresh New York pizza and many other favorites, all made with the finest quality ingredients." Among the menu items are chicken wings, chicken fingers and chicken salads and subs.
3. Raising Cane's
This outpost of the chain Raising Cane's, a fast food spot, is another affordable go-to, with four stars out of 220 Yelp reviews. Head over to 5660 Centennial Center Blvd. to see for yourself.
Tracy M., who reviewed Raising Cane's on Dec. 27, wrote, "The chicken is very moist. The bread is awesome. Fries crispy and tasty. Just wish they had a bigger container of fry sauce without asking."
Yelper Melissa S. noted, "The chicken tenders are so good. The chicken is so tender, and my favorite is dipping them into a mixture of Cane's sauce and Louisiana hot sauce. Their fries are pretty good, and the Texas toast is soft and buttery deliciousness."
