ABOUT Best Wings of memphis
Serving Great-Tasting Food Since 1999
In 1999, Best Wings of Memphis was established by owner and active manager Curtis Chism Sr., a born and raised native of Memphis, TN. Mr. Chism comes from a rooted background in the food service industry. He was introduced to the food service industry in 1976, shadowing his older siblings, which quickly gained him experience and awarded him with prestigious knowledge of food service and entrepreneurship.
Although he started behind the scenes in the food industry, he always had a passion for cooking. Inspired by Moma Chism’s authentic recipes and indulgent home-style southern cuisine, his curiosity led to experimenting with dishes, spices, and recipes, which later birthed the idea of opening a restaurant. In February 1999, Mr. Chism opened the doors of Best Wings of Memphis. He was one of the first pioneers to brand whole chicken wings as buffalo style. He created an indulgent menu that caters to every guest, offering an original variety of wing flavors, farm-raised catfish, and his award-winning Blue Ribbon spaghetti.
