Atlanta is known for many things, from culture to traffic to history and beyond. But our most famous food by far is our delicious lemon pepper chicken wings.

And now, it’s official: one of Atlanta’s wing spots is one of the ‘best wings places’ in the south! Keep scrolling to learn more.
Which Atlanta wing place is the best in the South?
According to a new report by Southern Living, The Local in Atlanta is one of the best chicken wing spots in the entire south. They say,
The Local has a ‘wet’ combo of Buffalo sauce and lemon pepper seasoning. Paired with smoked, fall-off-the-bone wings, it’s a glorious thing.
And it is, in fact a glorious thing! But you’ve gotta order as soon as you get there: The Local is known for selling out of their wings super fast, since they’re such a hot commodity. Of course we recommend their lemon pepper wings (duh), but they’ve got a whole menu of delicious flavors to check out, too!
