Blue 42 Restaurant and Bar

I saw these crazy wings on TikTok and knew I had to stop on my way home from NYC! Ended up trying the Nacho Doritos, Cool Ranch Doritos, PB&J, and Fruity Pebble chicken wings. Fruity Pebble was hands down the best — the sweetness actually worked so well with the chicken. Wish I grabbed the S’mores instead of PB&J because they looked insane. The owner is wicked chill and the vibe of the place is great. Highly recommend checking this spot out if you’re looking for wings that are way outside the box!

Casual restaurant & bar with outdoor seating…. They have 172 wing flavors !!! Julia Gulia was a sweetheart, she took our orders and made our margaritas. Branson brought our food out and shits over, he was super cool. I had the Buffalo & Thai chilli flavor and it was perfect ! My best friend had the lip smackers flavor and she loved them. We also shared a burger . The wings were cooked to perfection. Lightly crispy on the outside , juicy and tender on the inside. That exactly how I like my wings. We tried a Nutella empanada for dessert , it wasn’t my favorite…too much Nutella. When we arrived around 4 pm it was pretty empty , but before we knew it the place was buzzing. They offer happy hour on both food and drink items ! They have some outdoor seating as well. I would definitely return !

Delicious wings!!! 8/10 overall. Me and my two sisters decided to check this spot out and we were not disappointed. We tried five flavors, Shut the Cluck Up was my favorite 9/10 it was regular buffalo with blue cheese crumbles and drizzle. If you like blue cheese and buffalo together this is your wing. Our 2nd round was called OMFG which was a very Parmesan and garlic buffalo which was a good 8/10 flavorful but not much of the garlic taste I was hoping for. Afterwards we had Smoke House Maple was a 5/10 for me it needed more flavor and add more heat to them. 4th wings were called Side Chick it was suppose to be garlic parm with Thai chili. Could have been more powerful in the chili aspect but was still delicious maybe if they added some heat to it I’d be a great combo a solid 7/10. Lastly we had the Honey Buffalo which was a 6/10 no sweetness at all. The loaded fries was a no 1/10. For me it was just the taste of the fries I did not really enjoy it by themselves it came with cheese, sour cream, and bacon it was better a 3/10 but wouldn’t order again. The fried Mac and cheese bites caught me off they were really good tasted like krafts but I love krafts a 7/10. Overall the bill was excellent for 40 wings. Would come back again! Also forgot the music was great I’m not sure if it’s there playlist or a DJ but it was good house pop music they were playing all the hits outside.

Food was really good… I give them that. Overall place is small and very over crowded. Service was not that good, they only had 2 waiters on a Friday afternoon and took forever to reorder drinks and to finally pay for the bill. I understand that they were extremely busy but you would think they would have more staff on schedule for a Friday . Overall food great. Wouldn’t recommend going on a weekend. Maybe on a random weekday you may get better service.

Blue 42 Bar really understood the assignment. Most bars either get the food right or the vibe right rarely both. But here? They nailed it all: fire food, super tasty drinks, and music that had me vibin’ the whole night. My personal faves? The Blue 42 Lemonade — smooth, fruity, and sneaky strong (you’ve been warned). The Lip Smackers wings — sweet heat with that crispy crunch. And the Fruity Pebbles wings?! Man, they took me back and blew my mind at the same time. And with 172 wing flavors to choose from? Yeah… don’t say I didn’t put you on. You’re welcome.

There’s no better place to watch a game with friends than a local sports bar. Whether it’s baseball, football, soccer, or hockey, they always intensify with the excitement of being surrounded by other fans who are equally as excited and into the game. They definitely offer a fun atmosphere, great food, and, in some cases, specific team allegiances. Originally opened in 2014, this popular establishment specialized in Italian cuisine and bar food. Blue 42 Restaurant & Bar, situated on Market Street in Elmwood Park, bleeds green and gold. They invite Green Bay Packers fans to catch every game of the season. Voted one of the finalists in 2025 Best of Bergen, the star favorite is the wings on the menu, which come with an insane choice of 175 wing sauces and dry rubs, which I came for lunch today as a first-timer. Upon entering when it just opened inside this cozy and relaxed vibe full of sports memorabilia and TVs, I was greeted by Daniel and got a seat by the bar. Reservation is highly recommended for dinner or on game day due to limited seating. Besides wings, the menu features an array of appetizers, soups, and salads, each prepared with quality ingredients and flavorful combinations. I decided on the 8-piece wings with Avocado Ranch and Lemon Pepper. The wings were bigger and cooked to perfection. They arrived hot, lightly crispy on the outside, and juicy and tender on the inside. The attention to detail in the preparation was evident, and I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Forget Buffalo Wild Wings or Wingstop, and you’ll thank me. The service was quick and the staff friendly. The price was reasonable, and the portions were just right. I can recommend this place.

Got the honey mustard & garlic parm mixed wings, delicious. But the real winner was the peanubutter Nutella wings. They were perfectly cooked & flavorful. Cheeses steak egg rolls were good also.
