The deal: Located in Davie, Billy's Tavern is a local favorite for chicken wings, burgers, and sandwiches. Former and present Miami Dolphins frequent the place, so you know the food is good.

What you get: Eight chicken wings in your choice of heat -- mild, medium, hot, or volcanic -- for $6.99. Wings come with blue cheese and celery. Add a 32-ounce Coke with free refills and you're still under $10.

We tried: The medium chicken wings were crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. The bleu cheese was perfect to offset the heat, as was the bottomless diet coke.

Bonus points: Friendly patrons, friendly servers and a Dolphin sighting make Billy's the place to go to if you're a sports fan. Billy's Tavern 8580 State Road 84, Davie, FL (954) 475-WING
