Why review such a ubiquitous chain? Because. The parking is terrible, the layout for this place epitomizes the bad layouts in this part of W.T. Harris. The people are nice enough, the bartender said more than two words to me and wasn’t to pushy with asking me what else I wanted. It is BWW — they serve BWW food. The food is no better and no worse than the other BWW I have been to. I haven’t been to a BWW yet that stands out in a good way, only the occasional sub-standard BWW. Warning: BWW has horrible deserts. I love free stuff, but when my free birthday dessert for this place comes around — I don’t want it. The brownie and ice-cream or cake etc. all taste like they were made last year in a factory and delivered frozen to BWW. Don’t eat the dessert, on that factor this place get a 1-star. The wings are OK, don’t get boneless — they are terrible. I lived in Buffalo for 20 years, I don’t know much about wings other than eating them and which wings I like better. These wings would be considered OK by Buffalo standards, but I search for the better than OK wings. I prefer these wings to Hooters, but not to actually good wings. This is why I am reviewing such a ubiquitous chain. Because.

Parking is difficult and this place is hard to get to. I don’t blame Buffalo Wild Wings for the parking or the difficulty — it happens to be in a hard to access strip of restaurants and stores. This place is typical of any of the others I have been to. The bartender is laid back when I went but this was during lunch on a weekday. There are tons of TVs and they will gladly put on whatever sports you want.

Great burger for lunch today. Also sub’d a side salad for the fries, cutting the carbs! Sat in the bar area, pretty busy for a Thursday lunch and service(Dayton) was top notch! Great lunch visit today, will return!

I never write reviews but this one ISTHEWORSTBWW we have ever been too!!! The service is AWFUL!!! No respect, no professionalism what’s so ever! The waitress OMG that waitress we had was so damn rude!!! We spoke with the manager Chris who was nice and asked us to give them another chance and also provided us with the DM phone number(Bob). Well we decided to give them another chance(bad decision on our part) and what do you know the moment we sat down the waiter didn’t even come greet us so about 15 min later this other waitress took our table because he never came and went off on her right in front of us because he said he had enough tables and he WASNOT going to help us!!! To make matters worse we called the district manager left message and he never returned our call… explains the staff they hire if that’s the type of upper management Buffalo Wild Wings hires!!! Never Again!!!

I’ve honestly had nothing but good experiences here, so was rather surprised to see how low the reviews were. The food is decent, and the beer is cold and cheap. They have awesome mixed drinks to choose from and they are very reasonably priced. $ 5 bloody mary? I have had excellent service every time and I enjoy the loud atmosphere during crowded sports events. It’s a BWW; a chain restaurant. Don’t expect fine dining, but it’s not bad either. They offer great wing specials. I am a huge fan of the boneless parmesan garlic or hot. The cheese bacon fries are my favorite appetizers. They sprinkle them with salt and vinegar seasoning. I like dipping mine in ranch! The service is hit or miss at this location.

Great customer service and good food. Be careful though if you order takeout wings they may not be fresh. Hit or miss… Last couple of time I specifically asked them not to give me any re-fried wings then I still got some bad ones.

Worst place ever! I ordered Togo food and they literally threw all my food in the bag! The sauce went everywhere! And when I got home I had to re heat everything because it was all cold! Including the fries! The wings and fries taste like it was made two days ago! Horrible

Cheddar’s was packed so my sister and I settled for this. We arrived around 6ish on a Saturday. It was pretty dead from the moment we walked in to the time we left. Not good, considering it was a Saturday evening. Fried Mushrooms — So good! Juicy & fried to perfection! Garlic Parmesan Wings — The flavor was pretty good. Perfectly cooked. Tender & juicy. Only downfall is too much sauce. Spicy Asian B/L Wings — These were incredible! Perfection! Crisp, tender, just the right amount of sauce. Loved it! Nachos — Now this was a bit of a letdown. Salty. We took 2 bites. Couldn’t force the rest. Didn’t even want it to go. Service wasn’t bad but didn’t stand out either. Maybe because it was so dead. Idk… but it was just okay. Nothing special about Buffalo Wild Wings. Just another typical wings chain.

Bdubs is an ok spot. Wings are great except on Tuesday. They are just ok. I think they use cheaper wings or something. This seem to be a pretty good franchise. Servers are always friendly. Food comes out quick. I come here often have not had a bad experience yet.

My wife and I came here for a snack on Friday night. We both had mild wings. Mine were great, but hers were way too spicy for her.; Her mistake was she said nothing but ate the wings anyway. Our server, Ebony, was really good and attentive. She brought the issue to the managers attention, who followed-up immediately. As my wife didn’t want anymore wings the manager(Lauren is her name) had a to go order prepared for my wife and expressed her sincere apologies. I maintain that a good place shows its worth when things go bad This alone sets this place above many others I’ve been to. After reading the reviews, I found none of them to be the case tonight.

You first walk in and it covers the«chain» BWW atmosphere… TV’s and Wings! Now you meet the hostess(nice, but could have used a more sincere greetings — the place was empty on a Saturday Night 8−9pm). She shows up to our table and then becomes this espionage spy who is over looking her shoulder while trying to explain to us a «anonymous survey» which can turn into $ 3 off our total for the night(it covered all the usual waitor/waitress formality). Once we laughed that off we were then greeted by our waitress Jasmin whom took our drinks. The tables were disgustingly sticky, good thing we had Baby Wipes(perk of rolling with a baby)… Now the menu — You come here for the wings which ranges from mild to HOT! and my wife is all about the mild and i’m in the middle ranges… So we went with Mild/Teriyaki/Medium… Only to return the Teriyaki. ITWASHORRIBLE!!! Its like they just open up a bottle of really bad Teriyaki sauce and daused the wings in them… NOBUENO! Got our waitress to return the Teriyaki wings and brought out Honey BBQ… Which was a MAJOR improvement over the Teriyaki. We go through our meal enjoying some NBA playoff action(again, it was empty??? NASCAR All-Star Race, NBA Playoff, and MLB action…) and paid off our total while we discreatly gave our«anonymous survey» back filled with all the truth! Run of the mill Wing shack here… Will be going back for a UFC fight and see if they can mustard up a decent gathering…

we came here after having a really great experience at another wing place and hoping to be able to compare/contrast… and the clear winner is NOT bw3. first, we waited close to 15 minutes for someone to even approach the table to get drink orders. we selected our wings and the veggie boat but we weren’t informed that veggies come with the wings, so we had a ton of veggies… and not enough ranch for 3 orders of wings and 2 loads of veggies. we could have asked for more if the waitress ever came back. we sat there for another 10 – 15 after finishing eating waiting for our server to return. when she did, she then had to go back to get the check. another 10 minutes. after giving her the credit card she just didn’t return to the table. we eventually hunted her down and she said«oh, i thought you left» even though she still had our card and we never signed the check. not a single apology from her. seriously, the worst service i have ever had. oh, and the«hot bbq sauce» is barely zingy(expecting a mouth of fire since there are only a few ranked hotter than that). it’s more like tabasco + mild bbq sauce. epic fail. will not return.

I was told to leave because I was too tall. The managers Ralph and John told me that I had to leave the bar area because I was too tall and was blocking the view of the television for some other patrons during a UFC fight. I’m 6’5″, There are 19 other TV’s showing the same thing when the fight is on, but me standing at the bar waiting for the bartender to serve me my beer is wrong. The manager told me to get«My Big Cracker Ass» out of the bar area before he kicked me out which he eventually did. The manager’s name is John Dixon and the other manger would not give me his name but I overheard his first name is Ralph. Worst experience ever. I used to go to BW3 quite often. Never again, apparently white people are not welcome.

I come here all the time B-Dubs has the best wings. I get the Hot BBQ or Nuclear and a basket of chips with chipotle BBQ on it. The beer specials are always a plus! It’s one of the best spots to go and watch a game at. A numerous amount of tvs displaying everything from golf football and basketball to UFC fights even wrestling at times. So a huge variety. I love the spot it’s not just a «restaurant» it’s really a hang out spot

Buffalo Wild Wings, BWW, B-Dubs, B-Wings, etc, is the epitome of decent sports bars in the area. It’s great to have one around the corner, as well as one in the uptown area. If there is any major game, fight, or race on, this is the place to watch it. The business more than adequately combines attributes of beer, food, and of course, TV’s. There is a wide-range selection of beer, and a full bar. The menu is comprised of finger food to wings, to burgers, to tasty salads. The TV’s are everywhere and most are between 40″-80″. What’s good here– Start with a cold beer. They have specials EVERY day of the week, usually draft specials. The buffalo chips are always a good choice as an appetizer. The wings are very good(if not one of my favorites around the area). The burgers CANBE very good, depending on how you order them. Medium-well is a little too«well» for my taste. The TV’s here populate almost ever square inch of wall space. With satellite, they USUALLY have every aired program(game, fight, race, etc.), for that timeframe, shown on ATLEAST one TV. Generally with fights, management will determine is there will be a significant«turn-out» to purchase the fight. Plan your excursions accordingly! I’ve been out to a number of locations and have generally enjoyed them all. Although a location in Deleware ranks top, the university area restaurant in Charlotte is a very close second. Even though it is a small layout and fills up quick, the general atmosphere and service, once seated, make up for a wait. Service is «as expected», i.e. usually modestly paced for a larger crowd.

I’m usually a fan of BWW… but this location is super busy, which usually is a good problem to have, but the service tends to suffer. Still trying to figure out the whole parking situation at this shopping center, but between the vexing parking lot and the mediocre service, I’m going to have to downgrade my review to 3 stars. Yes the Thai Curry sauce is good, but is it worth the hassle of the parking lot or an unexpected LONG dinner due to waiter backups and crowds… probably not. I’ll still keep this location on my «go to» wing place lists for the University Area… but I will be on the search for a hole in the wall gem that would quickly replace it on the list.

The staff were really friendly and good about topping off my drink. Not too packed for a Saturday night and the layout was one of the better ones I have been in. Very clean too. Other than that, just your standard Buffalo Wild Wings.

Let me just say: this 3 star rating is relative to other BW3s. I find Buffalo Wild Wings to be a fantastic chain and always enjoy the huge variety of sauces they offer(not to mention that the Blazin’ sauce is actually hot enough to register for this spicy food junkie). If you like chicken in wing, boneless wing or sandwich form they have you covered. You should also probably try the cheese wedges… and the chocolate cake. That being addressed, this particular BW3s has its ups and downs. I have eaten there on a few occasions. On one visit my dinner companion asked for his wings to be double coated(once in sauce and once in one of their dry seasonings) and they failed to complete the second step. I’d love to tell you whether they still charged him for 2 flavors but he refused to let me near enough the bill to check. We made the mistake of returning on NFL opening night this week and had some trouble getting seated due to confusion caused by a large greek recruiting event and a poker tournament that were being held but after 15 or so minutes we were allowed to sit at the empty table in question. The food is of comparable quality to most Buffalo Wild Wings and the servers are hit or miss, but I feel like that is to be expected since they are so close to the college(Yeah, that’s right, I said it. Coed employees aren’t always stellar.) Don’t expect the world, but if you want a solid wings and beer experience you are not gonna be disappointed.

I’ve heard good things about BWW, but was unimpressed. The wings platter we ordered allows you to choose 5 flavors. Out of everything the best was probably the original salted one, the other flavors were disappointing. The wings were huge and I liked that there was alot of meat on them, but would not return for food. It is unlikely that I will return, unless it’s to watch a game(there were plenty of TVs).

I’ve been to a sports bar or two in my time, and this one really blows. Or maybe we just had really bad seats. I don’t know exactly what it is, but it’s just about impossible to enjoy the game(s) that are going on. When I want to catch some games, I’d like to be able to take them in. I totally get that you’re going to get cross-talk from different games, and that’s okay — but at this location, it’s so bad that you can’t hear anything. Some of the best places I’ve seen will give you a speaker on your table where you can tune in the game you want to hear. Or if there’s a game that’s really big, they turn that one on. At BW3, they just turn them all on full-blast(or so it seems), and you can’t hear anything — or perhaps you hear everything. The food is good, and you get a choice of all sorts of sauces on your wings(which makes it difficult — how do you choose which one?). The service is pretty good too. But you can get wings anywhere, so it’s nothing particularly special. You really have to want to sit through the cacophony in order to eat them, though.
