Score: 98
We’re swinging by a new ‘hot’ spot in town on North Memorial Parkway in Huntsville.
A Town Wings, based in Atlanta, opened their first Alabama location just four months ago.
Each store has slightly different menus and prices keeping the experience unique.
Dive into hand breaded fish, shrimp, tenders and fries, with a healthy sprinkle of seasoning salt of course.
Try one of their best sellers — a delicious and ‘philling’ Philly Cheesesteak.
With their biggest order at 100 pieces, the wings are just about endless, and so are the flavors with 20 options ranging from hot, to garlic parmesan, to teriyaki lemon pepper.
