  The good: tons of tv's and beer.
  
  The not so good: Come on!  The buffalo chicken sandwich chicken breast should be tossed in the sauce, NOT just a little drizzle over the top of a frozen fried chicken flat breast.

  Good food and good service at the times we've gone.  I haven't gone during a big game but when I do I'll update.

  This review is of the Burlington, NC location at 3128 Walden Lane in the Alamance Crossing shopping center.
  
  We went with friends this afternoon.  To start we ordered the Sampler appetizer platter.  Everything on the platter was cold.  Yes, the boneless wings, the deep fried cheese, and onion rings were cold.  Excuse me?  Each of these items should have come fresh and hot out of the deep fryer.  No, they were cold.  One of the dipping sauces tasted rancid.  We got two containers of Ranch dressing and were never asked if we might prefer Blue Cheese.  The Marinara sauce came out of a jar.  One person in our party ordered the Jerk seasoned wings.  All you could taste was clove.  I have to admit I have never had Jerk seasoning, so when I got home I looked up Jerk seasoning recipes online.  I couldn't find one that had clove.  It was awful.
  
  We were also told that the football game we were interested in watching would be *featured* in the bar area, but it was only shown on one small LCD screen, and on a projection screen that was badly distorted.   I could understand this if the game we wanted to see was an out-of-town team, but we were interested in watching the game from our area's home team.  If you were from Pittsburgh or Dallas you were in luck.  If you wanted to watch the home team Carolina Panthers, not so much.
  
  On the positive side, our server(s) were attentive.
  
  Live and learn.  Bad food, bad advice.  Next time it's Hooters.  We won't be returning to this location of Buffalo Wild Wings.

  Too bad our service was terrible, because the food was actually pretty good, and not too pricey.  We had the fried mushroom appetizer, several baskets of wings, and various entrees within our 8 person party.  
  
  ..And it wasn't us having 8 people that slowed our service down.  It took an entire 30 minutes just to have our bill + credit card taken to the register so we could leave.  Call me crazy, but I would think that'd be her chosen moment to redeem herself (considering a gratuity is soon to be determined.)  It doesn't help her case that the dining room was practically empty, either.  This same service was reflective of our entire time dining.
  
  One thing they've got going for them, if it accounts for anything, is their potato wedges.  Simple as it sounds, with a little ranch dressing, they were SO delicious!  Then again, I guess ranch can make anything taste good.  The Buffalo Chicken Wrap was pretty good, too.  Great beer selection, full bar, free wi-fi and complimentary birthday desserts are another plus.
  
  When leaving, you'd have thought we had just left a million bucks on our table.  We got so many smiles and opened doors.  A dozen people must have told us to have a great night and come back again.  If only our waitress could take a few lessons from them in being attentive, we'd have a winner.

  Tried this with the family and really can't see what the appeal is here...other than multiple TVs. We each ordered something different and nobody was overjoyed with their food. Barside? Looks like a touchdown...Grillside? Major fumble!

  Two words:  Hot. Mess.
  
  And, no, I'm not describing your girlfriend last Saturday night.  I'm talking about the Burlington version of BDubs.  Let me start with the positive: beer, lots of TVs, beer, and lots of TVs.  Now, for the negative...
  
  The service? It sucked.  I never got a drink refill... and call me cheap, but when I'm paying over 2$ for a soda, you better believe I want my moneys worth.  And I'm not one of those people who sucks down seven glasses in an hour.  I could have used ONE refill. That's it.  Just one.  Further, I ordered the "hot" flavored wings.  Thankfully, my wings had maybe a teaspoon of the hot variety wingsauce on them because otherwise the *one* soda wouldn't have cut it.  Even more so, she just wasn't friendly. No smiles, no positive energy.  Just bored and harrassed looking.  So, to the wings.  They sucked.  They had hardly any sauce and you could tell they were sitting under the hot lamps for about 15 minutes before coming out.  A friend of mine ordered 6 teriyaki and 6 honey bbq.  Instead, she received 12 teriyaki.  When she pointed it out to the Expo who brought our food, she took all the wings back, they refried 6 of the wings, and re-sauced them with the correct sauce.  I think that is so tacky.  Just leave the damn 12 wings and bring out 6 honey bbq!  How much money are you really losing by doing that?  Instead, my friend sat waiting... and waiting... and waiting... for her wings.  My nachos were cold and lacked the main ingredient: cheese.  Because of the lack of sauce on the wings and flavor we all had to order an extra side of the wingsauce - a shame for BDubs.
  
  Why am I not giving this abysmal review only 1 star? Well, call it my own fault, but I never was able to flag down or get a manager.  So, whenever that occurs I refuse to rate a place with one star. I'm dissapointed.  This was my go to hang out spot in Wilmington. Hopefully they fix the above issues or else the Burlington spot will continue to be a crying shame.

  Wings, wings, wings! I am not sure why other people order things besides wings here.  They have a great selection of different sauces for the wings so no matter what your mood is.
  
  They have lots of screens showing a variety of sports at all times which is really good when you don't have a specific game in mind.
