"The only thing better than eating wings with a cold beer is eating jumbo wings with cold beer. And that reality exists at Crisp, one of the best fried chicken spots in Chicago. This Lakeview restaurant specializes in large, Korean fried chicken wings, so an order of five qualifies as a meal. True to the restaurant name, each bite is perfectly crispy, and they have plenty of sauces to choose from, like spicy BBQ or the sweet and garlicky Seoul Sassy. The casual space isn’t that big, but there are a decent amount of counter seats, as well as large picnic tables perfect for splitting a six-pack with friends.
