For people who want incredible chicken wings with unbeatable value, there’s The Sun Barbecue Co. Expect the fried chicken wings to be crispy, juicy, and generously portioned, and to enjoy them in a cozy spot that feels like a neighborhood secret. But if a $25 meal feels like too much commitment, they have plenty of other options that are just as satisfying. There, you can order from their varied menu with things like veggie spring rolls and General Tso chicken while sipping on an affordable beer.

Golden Wok

The dining area is full of practical tables and simple dishware you might find at a neighborhood favorite. But besides the consistently tasty food and the straightforward, family-friendly vibe, the chicken wings alone should entice you to visit this Etobicoke spot.

Eating an entire family deal pizza (even with hungry relatives) can be quite the undertaking. Luckily there’s Pizzeria Donatelli’s, which offers some very good pizza by the slice. Yes, there’s square and regular, but the best is their regular slice—it’s similar to the best spots, with light, crispy dough and every bite filled with flavor. This location is counter-service, friendly, and has a few tables for small groups that get tired of waiting at the fancier places.
