No price on the menu for their "special" of 20 wings and a pitcher of beer. They allowed us to "split" the order into 10 Mild and 10 Medium. The Milds were Medium. The pitcher of beer was limited to Michelob Ultra or Labatt Blue. They were out of draft however, so she offered us 4 bottles instead. But they had to be Michelob Ultra or Labatt Blue, no Blue Light, no Bud Light, etc. were allowed. And finally, the sauce on the wings was "pour on" sauce, not the normal "stirred up" sauce.

Was there with a few people. We had 5 different orders of wings, and none of them were warm. They were room temperature. They tasted great, and leftovers were awesome the next day, after airfyer.

*EDIT 3/5/24*Been a few more time since my recent review and the wings have been absolute ? lately. The last 5 times I've been were right on par with some of the best wings around town. Sauces are spot on, big fan of the hot-cajun and bbq-cajun. Service has been exceptional as well. Boosting up to a 5 star now since the last 5+ times I've been have all been perfectBeen to this place twice now since Ive been told best wings in WNY. My first time was a major letdown, I did the Double Dip with Cajun and Honey Mustard, the wings were so overcooked that all I tasted was other leftover food from the char marks. I wanted to give them another try because I always feel like these types of bars have mediocre food during the days and then they step up at night when the rush comes in so I went in again on a wknd night and ordered the Cajun-Medium Double Dipped. Once again, I ran into 3-4 of the wings extremely overcooked but the other ones were 100% spot-on, flavor was killer and the chicken was on point. Only if I could get a full order of decently cooked wings then my review would be higher. Also docking a bit of a point because I was told their top shelf whiskey was Seagrams 7... I mean, I get its a local bar but really?Positives were that the bartenders were all super friendly and were flying around the bar. There was a large wait for bigger groups to get tables but that is expected on a Friday night in a smaller location like this. Parking lot was a zoo with people trying to find spots. Ample televisions on to watch the game and overall seems like a fun local spot.All in all, Id recommend stopping in if you are in the area. Its a good group of people but the Wings just haven't left their mark on me (yet). Im hoping that changes though.Overall 3.5/5

Wings here are mind blowing! Best you'll ever have. Get em grilled and hot. Meaty, but fall off the bone and spiced to perfection. Service was excellent the evening we stopped in.
Elmo's Restaurant and Bar is a wonderful experience. Everything from their excellent service to pricing. The restaurant has a excellent assortment of food choices that allows plenty to share with others that join you. It's a very clean and comfortable setting with a wide range of choices in beer or alcohol selection. I went there with other military veterans and received a wonderful discount with proof of service. Their chicken wings and selection were awesome and the nachos were fabulous. I highly recommend this neighborhood restaurant and bar no matter what neighborhood you live in.

Wings were AWESOME, Lisa was amazing. Our only issue was the bar stools. One was worse than the next. There were barely any and the ones they had were ripped and wobbly. It was packed and there was nowhere to sit at the bar.
