Buffalo Wild Wings

I've been to "B-Dubs", as it has been nicknamed, only once before tonight. Both nights were fabulous. This evening I built my own burger- I ordered the black bean burger with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon and ranch and it was one of the tastiest burgers I've ever had! I found out afterwards that it was a veggie burger. I honestly thought they just threw some black beans in with ground beef. I'm not entirely sure how they did it, but it will be my go-to burger on future visits. It was loud and fun, just what our group was looking for. I wish their fries were the thick steak fries, but they were still good. All that aside, I also ordered the chocolate cake and ice cream. It was pure heaven!! I devoured it all by myself and I simply refuse to feel guilty for it!  :) definitely recommend! However, if you are against smoking, they allow smoking in the bar seating area, but it wasn't too bad. I wasnt overly fond of sitting there, but we had a large group and not too many seating options without a long wait.

Always a good place to catch the game but come early. Good food.

If "sports bar" for you means more TVs, louder audio, more cigarette smoke and sort-of-average food - then this is the place for you!

The Pros:
- They have a ton of TVs, which was amazing.
- The service seemed to be pretty decent.
- They can accommodate larger groups without much trouble.

The Cons:
- The food is not that great.
- If the event you want to see isn't on a big screen (there are five in the bar area) you're in trouble...hope you brought your reading glasses.
- Cigarette smoke death, and/or bodily stench (you will need to wash your clothes after).
- It is SO LOUD in there.

So...I went to watch the #1-ranked college football team play for an undefeated season and a BCS championship bid, but the game WASN'T EVEN ON. At least initially, we had to ask to put it on. The big screens had Mississippi State / Ole Miss, Texas A&M / Missouri, and Stanford / UCLA. I understand the desire to show the first two, but that last one - no one was watching! And how can you NOT show the #1-ranked team? So I had to squint to watch on a smaller TV while lesser-ranked teams played on the large screens.

The audio for the Ole Miss / Mississippi State game was so loud that it gave me a headache, and yes I realize that saying this makes me sound old. It was also hard to pay attention to another game with the audio from some other game blaring in my face. Add the fans yelling anytime anyone did anything, and it's just so so loud.

The food...I had a bacon burger and fries - they were just okay. The patty was pre-formed it seemed like and the bacon was the thin microwave kind. Not terrible, just not amazing - it would never be a reason to bring me here, which is a mistake, I think. My buddy said the same about his wings.

Overall I had kind of a negative experience, even though I hoped it would be great.
