Their XXX Hot Wings caught my eye because of the ghost pepper used in the sauce. Don't get me wrong - these are hot, as advertised! But in my non-expert opinion, I'd be willing to guess that the amount of pepper present in the sauce is only enough to warrant the plastic fire hat they'll provide, not enough to call the actual fire department. Still, given that this is a sports bar and not a wings-centered establishment, and that the flavor of the wings was actually pretty good, you could do much worse. Doesn't hurt that they have a good selection of beers as well!

Jake's is a great place for dates and parties. The food and service is great!
The Pancho wings and ribs are the best!!!
