About a week ago, we faced the most disgusting food item we have ever ordered for lunch in Buffalo. The reason why we are spitting out this review now is because it is highly unlikely we will ever go back. This was our first time and probably last time with this place. No, it wasn't their pizza that was that bad.
We've been on a streak of trying to find hot chicken wings that are actually, well, hot. Almost always the hot wings from pizza places are borderline medium. We were in the mood again for hot wings so we looked at their menu and couldn't decide between the hot & spicy or the suicidal. When we placed the order for our pizza and wings, we asked what their hottest wings were and the guy said the suicidal were the way to go... and we very much regret that decision of picking so.
Aside from the wings, the pizza was fine, but real greasy. It didn't fit well in the stomach and felt like grease was going down rather than substance. This was noticeable after a couple slices. The thin cheese on it had that look like it was out in the cold for a while then warmed back up. More importantly, instead of discussing the pizza anymore, the reason why this place was a disaster was because of their chicken wings. The experience with the wings dragged down the pizza.
For some reason, we ordered twenty suicidal wings instead of ten and no more than five were eaten total. We had three people each try out a wing when we got them during lunch and neither of us could get through one of them. It was easily the most horrendous and appalling sight of wings ever seen… through television, Internet, person… anywhere.
The wings had this dark brown color like it was some crusty barbeque sauce. Once you touch a wing, most of it went on our fingers like we were grabbing it off and it was just awful. The wings weren’t even cooked long enough. They did though have some hot factor, but not in a tasteful manner. It wasn’t your traditional buffalo style sauce we’re all used to seeing... it was far from it.
The only thing redeemable from the box of chicken wings was the celery, but even those were hit with the damage of the sauce and smell. Since we had so many wings leftover, we ended up showing these wings to countless number of co-workers afterwards and they all practically ended up saying the same thing... that it looked like someone took a pile of crap on it. Please at all costs stay away from the wings at this place.
Final Rating: 1.5 out of 5

My dog wouldn't eat this crap!
That is an unfair rating because those are not the usual wings. Since one of our own specifically challenged the pizzeria, it should not count against them. Casi di pizza is not my favorite by far, the wings are a bit above fair. BUT in this particluar case the review should either be on the pizza only or you should re-order and do a fair judgement.
Maybe you should have called them and inquired as to whether this was normal practice, to send out wings with an unrecognizable sauce on them. Maybe it was a freak accident and they would be willing to make it up to you...sounds like FREE lunch to me!
