Firstly, I have never actually eaten a meal here, so I don't have anything to say about the dining experience. This review is all about ordering sauces for home-cooked wings.
So anyway, my family has been ordering shipments of Alliger's wing sauce for about thirty years now. A family friend in Michigan introduced my parents to the Kamikaze sauce back in the 90's, and we've been loyal customers ever since. I was about 5 years old back then, and my parents still order Alliger's sauce to this day. I have so far seen shipments to three different states and two different overseas military addresses, and the sauce quality has never dropped or changed.
As soon as I left home, it was my turn, and I'm ordering their sauce now in my 30's. The Kamikaze (hot), Garlic (mild), and Singapore (medium-ish) sauces are my personal favorites, in order of gold to bronze. They're obviously stellar on wings, but Kamikaze is also great as a richer kind of Tabasco replacement for sour Asian soups, and Garlic doubles an amazing mixer to create garlicky dipping sauces (Garlic + ranch dressing = happiness). The individual bottles are also fun to give away as small gifts to friends and family.
Recently, though, I ran out of Kamikaze--my go-to sauce--and went to order online, but found that the online store was unavailable. I may have panicked a bit, but after sending an email to the contact address posted on their website (which I swear hasn't changed for over 15 years), I learned that the online store was being redone, and Jen was kind enough to take my shipping address and let me order through email instead. The crazy part, though, is that I received the sauce just two days after I sent my address and sauce request. Apparently, they shipped the package (UPS Ground) before I even had a chance to see the PayPal invoice!
Although I only live a few tiny New England states away, I was still bewildered to receive a surprise sauce box of joy in the mail just a day after paying for the order. My order arrived double-boxed, with the smaller box nicely cushioned within the larger box and cardboard dividers between the 12 bottles, and in pristine condition. Their customer service has always been good when ordering sauce, but this experience was absolutely worth throwing them a long and glowing Google review.
I love this place. I love their sauces. Hopefully, my own children will be fortunate enough to keep this family tradition alive in the future. Thanks Alliger's, for literal generations of tasty sauce and excellent ordering service.

Very good giant pretzel with 2 sauces. Garlic parmesan boneless wings were a little too spicy but good.

My burger was amazing! Also got the garlic Parmesan wings and they were different than other garlic wings we had. They were good and the wings were big and crispy! Will try another flavor next time. My wife had the haddock sandwich and she loved it. The staff was great! I don't no they normally serve people at tables on a Sunday but they did for us!

Chicken Wings
Wow, how this place has changed since I lived in Athens. My wife and I sat at the bar on Sunday, each ordered a house salad and a dozen wings. We assumed the salad would come out first, but 15 minutes later we asked the bartender for our salads at which time she said she didn’t realize we would want that first. She went into the kitchen to get them, but returned empty handed saying she didn’t bring them out since our wings would be done soon. Can’t figure that one out. Ordered Sicilian wings, all flats (which they accommodated), extra crispy with extra sauce on the wings. They were not crispy and the sauce was on the side, which wasn’t that big of a deal, but contributed to a lack of service. Tasted ok, not as good as I recall. My wife ordered honey garlic and the sauce was pretty good. We ordered Hawaiian wings to go and when tried them at home, virtually no taste. At least the beer was cold. Tanners would’ve been a better choice, but since we live in Elmira, we’ll stick with The Elbow Room or my home cooked wings.
