Let me preface this review with the fact that I have been a BWW loyalist for years now. I like B-Dubs. Some people hate it and I understand why. You feel like you're supporting "The Man" of sports bars when you're here. I get it.
That being said, I've frequented this location for quite some time now. The staff is always very friendly and they're genuinely nice people. The place is rarely over-crowded, so you can pretty much bank on getting a seat here without too much trouble most of the time.
I've long been a fan of the "wet" sauces, but recently tried one of their dry rubs - the Desert Heat. I have not gone back (about 10 times now) without ordering it. It's officially in the rotation. My personal favorites in no particular order are Spicy Garlic, Asian Zing, and Mango Habanero...along with the Desert Heat. The Mango Habanero and Asian Zing are sort of similar, so I would say to avoid ordering them on the same day - and since someone pointed out that the Mango Habanero has a "plastic-y" taste, I haven't really been ordering it. I used to love it though.
They recently changed over their wings to a larger size - and they are noticeably larger/meatier wings. They are also pricier though as well. If I had one complaint about the place, it's that I can't walk out without spending less than $20 on myself. With a couple beers under my belt, it can cost about $30 with tip. I still manage to find a way to budget it in though.
I don't usually review chains but this location treated our party of 12 really well tonight. Â Our waitress was attentive, and quick, even with a packed restaurant and our big crowd. She recommended a great local IPA I was unfamiliar with which I am grateful for. And the wings, while ordinary, were fresh, hot , and tasty. A great night out with the gang
Review Source:I just don't know what to say about this place. Â It is hit or miss. Â After my last posting, it took me awhile to send a note to BWW management about the specific incidence.... But I missed my food and wanted to make management aware of what happened to us. Â My husband and I were contacted almost immediately with a small compensation; we figured we would give it another try. Â I did miss the mango habanero sauce and buzztime trivia.
It was a Thursday night- date night- and we were greeted by Sheri... a bubbly, wonderful waitress. She took good care of us and we had a wonderful evening! Â Food was good (WARM!), beer was good, all was well. Â We decided we could start coming back.
The following week, we had an impromptu get together at our house and someone mentioned a BWW craving, so we all packed in the car and went back BWW. Â We were immediately seated, not bad for 5 people on a Saturday night and beer orders were taken. Â Unfortunately, our waitress got 2 of the four beers wrong (at least it wasn't just us this time!)... they told her about the mistake but drank them anyway. Â We ordered the garlic mushrooms which were pretty yummy considering I don't like mushrooms...
It came time for our orders, she wrote them all down- and I repeated my husband's order 3 times....
No surprise- my order and my husband's orders were wrong. Â My buffalito came out with sour cream (albeit my request for no sour cream) and with the wrong sauce (and no little stickers to tell us which sauce it was), my husbands had the same issue.... We asked her if it was maybe a mistake and someone brought the wrong order.... No, she assured us they were ours... Â I figured it would take too long to get something new made up, so I took off the sour cream and sucked it up. Â My husband absolutely did want to eat the wrong sauce and sour cream, he asked for a new one- a grilled buffalito without sour cream and Asian zing sauce. The replacement came out pretty quickly but it was wrong again. Â BWW how is that you mess up a replacement order.... Sigh.
I can say I probably be back but I should probably just stick to the wings because it is impossible to get anything else correct here. Â Thinking back, out of the last 4 times we have been there our orders have been messed up 50% of the time... come on....
First time tried this place and was not impressed at all. The atmosphore is okay for a sports bar, I do not like it as I think it was way too loud, and the service was slow, but for someone who likes to watch sports - go for it.
We were hoping for really juicy ribs and fries, ordered full rack for aboout $16 that comes with salad and fries. The waitress said they have 3 types of sauces, so we chose two (half half) and she said it is possible to do that way. We waited very long time for our food - when it finally arrived it was almost cold and the sauce was only one, not two as the waitress promised. There was also no side plate for bones, we had to use table and napkin. Yuck.
Anyways, the ribs were not that juicy and soft as expected. Fries were only few, there was not enough for the size of ribs. Anothre minus - they do not have regular plates, they use some paper plates that are so uncomfortable, in the shape as soup bowls. Will not return.
OK, it's a chain and I feel guilty for even reviewing it. That being said...
I went in with a friend and got an order of a dozen boneless in classic buffalo with fries. She ordered the mango habanero boneless which was a bit sweet for my taste personally (they were pretty warm though!).
The "wings" came and they were good, if not a bit too on the vinegar tasting side. I ate about half and saved the rest for leftovers later. The fries were pretty basic, nothing noteworthy. Service was OK, but not outstanding. There was a State game wrapping up and it was extremely loud, but that's understandable.
Major turn offs for me were the fact that you had to pay for blue cheese or ranch dressing, and even for celery! Are you kidding me??? The cost of the wings & drinks don't cover that? Two days later I went to another chain nearby "in the neighborhood" if you get my drift, and I got an order of boneless wings and a side of fries for substantially less, and guess what? FREE dressing & celery. Imagine that!
From now on, I'll take advantage of the wings elsewhere I do believe.
I love Buffalo Wild Wings food. Unfortunately, I've had some pretty big disappointments at some locations. Which is why I was so happy when this location went over my order with me when I picked up my takeout the first time I went there. Other locations have caught on since then, but this was the first one that did that for me. When I lived in Westland, I would drive a little farther to go to this location instead.
Review Source:I have been a huge fan of Buffalo Wild Wings for years. Â Since there are no locations nearby, I actively seek them out when on the road. Â (On this particular adventure I was making a secret-squirrel trip down Ford Road through Canton trying to escape the Michigan-Ohio State crowd. Â And then I saw the sign...)
Sadly, my love for their food is a double-edged sword. Â (Triple-edged if you look at my gut.) Â Almost every BW3 dining experience suffers from some major flaw. Â The wings will be overcooked. Â Or undersauced. Â Mozzarella sticks will still be hard in the middle, or just downright empty tubes because all the cheese melted out.
Not at this location! Â Absolutely every aspect of the meal, from being greeted at the door through service and quality of the food was on point.
Our server was Hillary and she had obviously mastered the art of being both welcoming and businesslike in the packed environment of 630 PM on a football Saturday. Â She provided attentive service, faster than fast delivery, and a smile throughout. Â If I was the CEO of Buffalo Wild Wings I would put Hillary on the corporate training staff at a high 5 figure salary pronto.
The food was impeccable. Â Perfect apps, perfect wings. Â That's all I ask for. Â Do what you advertise and do it right. Â THIS Buffalo Wild Wings does it RIGHT.
I left Hillary with a 50% tip. Â Her and the entire staff that evening earned it.
This weekend I discovered a magical wing at BWW that is SO good that just writing about it makes me drool....the Mango Habanero! Â It is just an awesome flavor - first your tastebuds are hit with the sweetness, then an aftershock of heat, which is just hot enough (not too hot). Â It's pretty close to a perfect wing.
Review Source:Every time I come here I make sure to get the Parmesan garlic because it's so delicious. However, there have been times that they put too much on and it just tastes bad. Even still, I always come back. My main annoyance about bww is how loud it is, even when there aren't any games on they have the music cranked up so loud you're screaming to your friend from across the table. All that being said, it's a great place to enjoy a few beers, watch a game, and hang with friends.
Review Source:I may be different than most but I don't think that $5 for 6 scrawny tiny wings is a good value. Â Their wings are not all that great, the sauces are very good. Â Their beer prices have gone up in recent years and the frequency of my visits have gone down also. Â My problem is that I don't drink the macro brewery beer specials.
Review Source:Wings are excellent, but a little pricey. They have weekly specials for them, but they are still expensive. A special is supposed to be like 25 cent wings not $2.50 wings. (not literally) Pretty good place to watch a game, but too big and too many bandwagon jackasses cheering stupid crap. Overall, worth it as there aren't many places around for a good wing.
Review Source:I almost died today. Hyperventilated probably, or else just went into a panic. All over "blazin" buffalo wings. Don't laugh. I entered Buffalo Wing Bar and Grill in Canton, just outside of Detroit, off the 96, for a late lunch, Not wanting more fast food during my week-long workl trip through the South and Midwest, I breezed by the Arby's, Hardee's, BKs off the interstate --though across the street, the oddly paired Church's Fried Chicken/White Castle burgers intrigued. (Can we put a moratorium on these pairings, please? I'd rather not have a KFC wing ding meal and a side of Taco Bell chalupas!)
So I found the Buffalo Bar and Grill, a spiffy and spacious place that looked more sports bar-ish (huge TV screens) than the typical bland Applebee's: this was a sit down place. I had a hankering for wings somehow and hadn't had some since I was in New York a few weeks back at RUB. The waitress brought the menu and found that, naturally, this place was going to specialize in buffalo wings and there were at least a dozen different wing sauces that you could choose from. I ordered a few wings as an appetizer, plus a Pepper Jack burger, and some sour cream and onion fried potato wedges. The server asked me what kind of sauce I wanted on my wings. I chose the top, or hottest one, called "Blazin'". "Are you sure?", was her reply, which I took to mean that she was probably making fun of me or challenging me. I thought certainly this couldn't be that bad. This looked like a chain restaurant, a decent establishment that had even packaged their own wing sauces. It couldn't kill me. I persisted: yes, I would have the blazin' sauce.
The burger was just fine, perhaps a bit dry and overcooked. (The menu promised that it would be medium-well, but it looked pretty black to me.) I added my own mayo and mustard to the burger, which had the pepper jack cheese, tomato and chopped iceberg on its soft buns. The fries were pleasantly seasoned and had a definite sour cream and onion flavor. They were cut wedge-like and reminded me of the fries at Fuddrucker's.
In between bites of the burger, I was also noshing on the perfectly cooked and marinated buffalo wings, a small pool of ranch dressing served on the side. It wasn't until the second wing that the definite afterburn in the mouth jolted me. Took plenty sips of my lemonade to make things better because I was really taken aback by the fire. The irony, though, and this may be familiar to those who like spicy food: you want more and more because the fire in your mouth, while painful, does not prevent you from enjoying the taste and texture. Overdo it and you're in trouble. I mean, you could literally stop breathing. And pushed even further, this might have befallen me. Imagine my own last headline: California man found dead after suffering respiratory distress; "blazin' wing sauce, found on corners of mouth and fingertips, to blame"
These were, in short, some of the best wings I had ever had, in taste: definite notes of vinegar, habanero (world's hottest) peppes, smoky flavor in general and really meaty, substantial wings and drumettes. Dipped in the ranch dressing --if only to momentarily drench the fire only a little bit--these were amazing wings and well worth the drive if you're in the Detroit or Ann Arbor region. Oh yeah. and when I was paying, leaving in a rush as I did, I actually had to run back to my table and drink some more lemonade and chew ice to assuage my burning mouth. When the server had to go out and find my bill, making me wait several minutes, I sneaked over and refilled my lemonade at the Coke fountain and kept chugging. And would you believe I bought a bottle of that blazin' sucker sauce? Of course. No one would believe me so I need to put something through this all over again, And watch them squirm. Prices were reasonable: 4.95 for 6 wings. $5.95 for the burger, $2.25 for the regular order of fries. And finally, sweet relief is only a few steps away. If your mouth is still reeling from the unbelievable wings at Buffalo Wing, then Carvel's Ice Cream is right next door. One scoop of their creamy ice cream (tried the Gone Bananas Crunch) will cure your tongue/mouth/head/brain instantly.
