What is it about the Buffalo Tap that makes it so popular?? Their specialty (wings) is consistently horrible (more like "dried salt lick jerky"), the place is usually a greasy mess, and the service is slow and unreliable. Yet; the parking lot is always JACKED full!?!? I don't get it. Â
I have tried to like this place, honestly, I have. Â It's so close to my house, it would be super convenient and easy to visit but it's just so awful every time I try, I refuse to go anymore. Â Don't let the huge number of cars and trucks outside the place fool you. Â The wings are expensive, scrawny and small, with very little meat. The wing sauce is predictable and very salty. Â
Service was deplorable. Â I think its a requirement for all employees to smoke... our server reeked of cigarette smoke and she actually bent over and rested her forearms on the table when she talked to us. Â We weren't at the bar, but at a smaller "sit down" table. Â She was bent at a 90 degree angle with her arms, bulk, and hair literally draped across much of our table as she asked, "what do you want?" Â She stood herself back up with much effort, pushing up from the table to reach a standing position. Â I'm not easily grossed out, but the smell of her smoke breath, etc, was too much.
The one thing they have going is extremely cold, frosty, perfectly tapped mugs of beer. Â If you're thirsty, sit at the bar and have a couple. Â If you're hungry, go somewhere else. Â Quickly...
