The fry-sauce-grill method perfected on Jackson Street has a spiritual home in this ‘Stallis haunt—the wings are similarly charry, crispy, still-saucy, ever-tender, with Frank’s Red Hot-hued tang scorched right into the skin, smacking of salt and vinegar and ephemeral tongue burn. It’s an honorable understudy, an apt homage to Buffalo—the city that’s made a spiritual art out of second place, and another inspired take on everyone’s favorite bar snack, one that maybe constitutes enough of a presence to deem this “Milwaukee style.” Maybe. The spot also says “Friendly Fried Chicken” right on the marquee, and indeed it comes lovingly wrapped in napkins like a steaming newborn, maintaining juice and fryer essence. It’s really indicative of a spot that takes bar fare seriously, in a city where it’s far too easy to phone in your burger and fried curd offerings.
