Best Happy Hour Wings in Elmhurst
Master Critic Review
Baro 1376 Restaurant & Bar
8.1
A Himalayan-leaning neighborhood bar-restaurant where wings work best as an appetizer lane alongside drinks and small plates. The move is to keep it tight—wings plus one or two snacky starters—then decide if you’re staying for momos or chow mein.

Chicken wings fried, Chicken lollipop, Momos
