What's All the Fuss About?

Rating: 4/51

FARMINGTON, NEW MEXICO -- Ever since the new Buffalo Wild Wings opened up locally, I have heard nothing but complaints from coworkers about the slow service, servers standing around chatting, high prices, etc... I finally decided to give it a try and took my wife and I there for dinner the other night.

I ordered the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw. She ordered a spinach dip appetizer, since she wasn't very hungry to begin with. We were greeted and seated immediately upon walking in the front door. As we sat down and placed our drink order, I glanced at my watch to mentally note the time. 11-minutes later, our food was delivered. Our server stopped by 3-4 times to see if we needed a refill or anything else. At the end of the meal, we received our ticket, which was around $20 +/-.

The only negative was the booming disco-like music in the background. Turn down the volume on that, and you get a full 5-star review. For now, we'll leave it at 4-stars. Good food, fast service, attentive servers, etc... I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

SAINT LOUIS, MISSOURI -- Buffalo Wild Wings has been my and my family's favorite place ever since we came to know that place. But one Sunday afternoon, probably a month ago, something real bad happened to us that made us decide not to go to that place again. I decided not to come close to the doors where it is located at all.

This was what happened that unlucky Sunday. On our way home from church, my whole family: me, my husband, my 10 yr old son, 8 yr old daughter and 19 mos son wanted to dine at Buffalo Wild Wings and got there and be seated. One blessed server came to our place and took the order. So we started waiting and waiting and waiting, our food was not there.

An hour past, no food no nothing. There were not too many customers that day. I was having hard time trying to quieten esp. my hungry 1 year old boy and all of us were starving for that matter. Another 30 minutes past but no food no nothing. My husband got up to ask what happened. I don't remember what a server said to him. He sat back and all of us started to wait until our server appeared. Our server came and said sorry and told us that unluckily the paper he took our order on fell on the ground and so the chef didn't see our order at all.

I was sad by that incident but was not mad at anyone because understanding that that could happen accidentally to anyone. So the server told us to wait for another 10 minutes and then he left. We waited but 10 minutes past, 20, 30 minutes past again. My kids stomach started to hurt and I had little patience afterwards too. All of us were so angry at that moment, my husband got up to get the management. A lady came and asked what happened. I was again saddened by her for she came with an attitude and also started to argue with us saying the order was made only an hour ago and then she left without doing anything.

Finally, two hours later, after many people who came behind us, ate and left already, the food arrived and we were so unsatisfied by the management as well as the chefs behind. The server was so nice, he tried his best to figure out what happened and help us all along. And that day became the end of our visit to that place.

First Experience Was Lousy

NILES, OHIO -- My wife and I had never ate at a Buffalo Wild Wings and after our experience last night, I doubt that we ever go again! It was at the Niles Ohio Location.

It is one of those restaurants that you sense that if you don't buy booze, then you do not get good service. We went in and got seated right away. Our waiter came to get our drink orders, and we told him this is the first time we had ever ate at a Buffalo wild wings. So all he did was point out the appetizer section, which we could read so that wasn't much help, the menu was kind of confusing, it did not say whether fries come with the sandwiches, the way it was listed, made it sound like it was the sandwich only. Our waiter answered our questions. We took a few minutes to look over the menu, then he came back.

My wife ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. Now the way the menu reads, you can have all of the veggies you want for free, then there is the cheese section and it says pick your cheese, does not say there is a charge for the cheese. Well, it didn't take long to get our order. My wife's sandwich was hot. I got the crispy chicken sandwich, and you would think it would be hot, since it is deep fried, lol, well, it was not even hot enough to melt the cheese. We both requested mayo with our sandwiches, which we did not receive.

We ask him where the mayo was and he said he would have to get it. I am sorry, but I would think when you order it for your sandwich, that it would either be on the sandwich or come out with the sandwich. Guess that is what I get for thinking. The fries were OK, mine wasn't hot either. We never seen our waiter again till we were done. Like I said, we mentioned we had never been to BWW before, so you would have thought he would have spent more time explaining the menu, that he would have checked on us, after a couple minutes to see how our meals were.

I had to flag someone down to get a refill on my water. My wife couldn't eat all of her sandwich, she doesn't eat a lot at each meal and she had the rest of her sandwich wrapped up in a napkin and he did not even ask if she wanted a to-go-container or baggie or anything. Then when we got the check, he charged us 60 cents for the free cheese. He did not thank us for coming in or even ask how we liked our meals.

Like I said, we mentioned that we had never been to a BFF before, so you would have thought he would have been a little more attentive to make our first time a great experience. We always tip really good, but we base it on how attentive our wait staff are. It really wasn't even that busy, and they had lots of staff, so there was no excuse. Maybe it is that way at all of them, maybe it is just this location, but I am sorry, when your first visit sucks, it makes you not want to go to another one. Maybe in a few months we will try another location and see how it goes, but at this point, we do not want to go back to any.

Not sure why, but it seems that bar/restaurants are offended if you do not buy booze, after all that is where they make their biggest profit. But, hey, not everyone drinks booze. I know, I know, we are in the minority in that area, lol.

Tasteless food
By -

LEESBURG, VIRGINIA -- As a first time patron, I was unhappy with the taste and quality of the food. The sauce was warm however the wings were cold. Not only were the wings cold they were also tough and difficult to chew. For an establishment to be known for wings, one would think this would be an area of expertise. The food tasted as though it had been from the night before. Being that we arrived at noon leads me to believe they wanted to get rid of the food from the day before. Each time I see the commercial I cringe because I ate there. I wish the ESPN zone never closed down because I would never have given this place a second thought. Overall the food SUCKS!!!

Buffalo Wild Wings: My review....
By -

PORTAGE, INDIANA -- I don't get it. Your food is served in paper products. You pay 7.99 for a flat bread with chicken and BBQ sauce. (Basically, 8 dollars for a taco shell with a couple ounces of chicken and BBQ sauce sets me off...) Wings are good, but they're chicken wings. How do you mess that up. I get the atmosphere. It's a sports bar. Sixty bucks for a family of four with one appetizer (Potato wedges) 18 piece wing and side of onion rings, cheeseburger, veggie burger, flatbread and four iced teas. That's 15 dollars a person to eat out of paper baskets. This is bar food at a outlandish medium high ticket price. Paying for the corporate atmosphere.

Alternative: Take your 60 bucks, 15% tip and shop it around anywhere else. You can go to Red Lobster, get salad, biscuits, 4 seafood dinners (of sorts) real utensils, real plates and a WHOLE lot more bang for your buck. (Unfortunately they don't have 35 TVs.)

FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS -- Coupon stated 11:00 am to 2:00 pm for 10% off! We arrived 1:50 pm & there was nobody in sight to seat us for 5 minutes! Finally, somebody showed up & seated us but it took 2-3 minutes for a waiter to show up. I showed the coupon & it was now 2:00 pm (I showed her my watch)... She said the order has to be placed before 2:00 pm & the coupon is not valid. Her Manager confirmed this & really didn't seem to care about "our problem". March 23, 2012.

ORLAND PARK, ILLINOIS -- I picked up dinner tonight for the family. The order was ready within 15 minutes of my call, and when we arrived the cashier double checked the order with me, looking at each item, including the number and type of sauces. I was really impressed!
