The competition for Brevard County’s top wings has narrowed to two finalists, and voters have until March 23 to decide the winner. Cajun Soul Bistro & Bar in Cocoa and Wing It in Indian Harbour Beach are facing off in the final round of the countywide showdown, which began with 16 participants and narrowed through weeks of head-to-head voting. The winner will be announced on March 24.
Cajun Soul Bistro & Bar, located at 333 King St. in Cocoa, has built a loyal following with its $1 wing nights and Cajun-inspired comfort food. The restaurant has been a staple in the Cocoa Village area, drawing crowds for its soulful take on fried chicken and specialty sauces. Wing It, at 660 E. Eau Gallie Blvd. in Indian Harbour Beach, focuses on made-to-order wings with a menu that includes more than a dozen sauce options and delivery service. Both spots have advanced through the voting process with strong support from local diners.
The final vote is open to anyone in Brevard County, with ballots due by noon on March 23. The winning restaurant will earn bragging rights and the title of ‘best wings’ for the area. No prize money is involved, but the recognition has become a point of pride for fans of both establishments. The competition has drawn thousands of votes since it began in March, with each round eliminating two restaurants based on public preference.
Residents can cast their votes online or through the Florida Today website. The final tally will determine which spot takes the crown. With only two restaurants left, the decision rests entirely in the hands of voters. The winner will be featured in a follow-up story next week, with details on how the restaurant plans to celebrate its victory.
