First time at a BWW. This location had a great selection of local AZ microbrews. They were also having a special on boneless wings for .60 cents each. I tried 3 different flavors. Tried the second from the spiciest flavor they had. Childs play. Next time I'm going for the hottest one.
Review Source:I have been to numerous B Dubs in the valley and have always had decently pleasant experiences, but this location is by far the worse of them all. It took about 30 minutes to receive a dozen wings, and I noticed that there was a disgusting layer of blood on one of the wings after eating it. I asked the waitress (who was in training) if this was normal, and she said that it was. $40 for a couple dozen wings, some cold fries, two drinks, and cheap little carrots in a generic little container was the biggest waste of money I've ever spent on food. To top everything off, I'm now home with food poisoning. There are plenty of restaurants in this town with decent wings, so do yourself a favor and skip this location.
Review Source:Let me start by saying I am NOT a restaurant or a food snob, by any means. Still though, BWW was kind of gross. We went here because I watched an episode of a tv show that talked extensively about buffalo wings, and I decided I wanted some too. This was the first place we decided to try because it was close and convenient so why the hell not.
The wings were mediocre but not terrible. However, the quesadilla was disappointing, and the mac n cheese was just plain gross. It is a lot like microwaveable mac n cheese from the grocery store. I wouldn't be surprised if that's what they were serving. Seriously, wtf.
So overall not HORRIBLE but definitely not good. I don't think I will be returning.
Another great evening at Buffalo Wild Wings, almost convinced my husband to go for the "blazing" challenge. Â The challenge is, if you can eat 6 blazing hot wings in 3 minutes you win (not sure what, that was not mentioned but win nonetheless). Â The catch, you cannot use any dip, drink any water, beer or anything while eating these wings. Â Seems easy, not so. Â Jalapeno wings were my husbands favorite aside from the two blazing wings. Â The blazing wings were my favorite too, not to eat but to watch him eat and see his reaction. Â I couldn't even see him sweat, but he did say they were hot for sure. The Chicken wrap is always a favorite with the chips in lieu of fries. Â Always a great environment to catch up with friends, and play games!
Review Source:I know. Â My dining companions told me later - "Why did you do that, it was stupid!". Â They were right. Â I went against my own mantra of never buying a steak dinner in a fish restaurant. Â I succumed. Â I was weak. Â It was hunger and I was delerious. Â The kids, they said "we love this place, they've got the best wings......evah!"
It had been a long day, I got up early, finished packing the truck and trailer on this somewhat bittersweet day, my daughter was moving out of the house to pursue her education in the pines of Northern Arizona. Â After delivering all her clothing and makeup, a couple of books, her flat panel and some other assorted stuff, I was famished. Â I offered to buy. Â OY!, it's the dreaded Dad affliction!
So, the kids say (her BF moved too), we love this place, there is one right around the corner - let's go! Â So, we went. Â They were missing half of the draft beers on their healthy list of beers, and unfortunately, it was the good half. Â I opted for iced tea. Â We also ordered an appetizer - French Fries. Â Now, by the menu description - one would think these were "special" french fries. Â Well, one would be wrong. Â They were just regular old french fries, the kind like you get at Jacks or something - served in a paper basket with nothing else. Â We had to ask for the fake ranch dressing twice.
The kids ordered assorted hotness and quantities of boneless wings and here, yes, is where dad veered off into the dark and troubled path. Â I read the warnings - "We cook our burgers to a delicious (?) medium well" - which generally translates to me into "We don't know or care where our beef comes from, but we'll cook the hell out of it to make sure you don't get any E-Coli". Â You know, I really appreciate how some places really care for the diner like that. Â I couldn't help it. Â As I said, I was delerious with hunger, I wasn't in my right mind.
I've been to the BWW in Tempe, and although it reminded me very much of Animal House - I had some boneless wings there and they weren't half bad. Â Surely, here in the cool pines, Â some young man who is just summering over from his pursuit of higher knowledge would apply the same studious diligence to the preparation of my burger that he applied to his major.....
that's probably where I really went off in the weeds. Â And to think I wasn't even drinking alcohol! Â I asked for some mayo to go with my burger, again, twice, before the jersey-wearing surfer kid dropped off a couple of packets, of what?, Heinz Mayonnaise? (I thought they were the ketchup people)
Burnt. Â crispy. Â Dry. Â Flavorless. Â I scarfed it. Â I was starved. Â You would think the bacon would have helped, but no, it was flavorless too. Â I almost let it go, but then surfer guy food server made a big deal about how I could get a cupon for a free order of wings if I filled out an online survey.
The next day I get a call from somebody who identified himself as the manager, and said that he got a "Code Red emergency alert message!" from up the hill that maybe somebody was not just overly ecstatic and bonding with the wing experience - so he wanted to "make it right". Â As the conversation followed with me describing the ghastly dining experience, followed by a fantastically expensive check - his solution was that "I should come back in and give them a second chance" Â WTF? Â Dude, you should be grateful you got two stars and I was too preoccupied with pushing my daughter out of the nest to really tell you how I felt.
I was there getting wings on a busy night and when I asked what was taking them so long (18 wings=40 mins) the waitress just apologized because they had to send a cook home for being ill. Naturally knowing a cook was allowed to stay sick in the kitchen I was a little uncomfortable. I have worked as a server at several jobs before and know that for a cook to get sent home, especially on a busy night, for being sick means he was pretty sick. So I was grossed out. I then asked to speak to the manager about the wait and just see what was up. When he finally showed up about 10 minutes later, I had a new complaint about my wings that took so long to just arrive cold and in the wrong flavor. He immediately got me fresh wings that still were only luke warm but I bit the bullet and as a peace offering he gave me a $5 gift certificate. I told him where I'm from we don't have Buffalo Wild Wings so this does nothing for me. He apologized and said that's all he could do so I asked for his manager and he told me he was the store manager. At this point a just decided it wasn't worth it and refused to pay and after a lot of bargaining I finally only paid for my beer. A+ for chasing clientele away. I stayed patient for nearly and hour only to leave hungry and knowing i'll try the other places around town before I even think Buffalo Wild Wings
Review Source:If I get out of town late on my way to Lake Powell, I stop to spend the night in Flagstaff.
Here's the drill.
Head for WalMart to get your RV, trailer, pickup bed...whatever, Â set up.
Park right next to the Insane Clown Posse tour bus.....what????????
Yeah, I know, I thought these fucks fell off the face of the earth too. Apparently not.
What's this got to do with BWW? Plenty.
BWW is located in the same strip mall as WalMart. Making dinner / drinking plans a foregone conclusion as you take the short stroll in for a fun evening.
BWW also serves Coor's Banquet, one of the few places in Arizona that does.
And if you get super-cronked, they feature a hot wing challenge. I wouldn't recommend taking it, but rather, ask your server to inform you if someone goes for it.
This way you can cheer them on to doing something spectacularly stupid.....speaking from experience of course.
Then stumble back to the stabbin cabin to sleep it off as you listen to the ICP's tour bus generator run all fucking night long.
I never liked those guys. Even less now.
Note: Tuesday is cheap wing night. But expect a packed joint 'cause every NAU student and their besty is in here on that night.
The mango habanero wings are my favorite.
Wow, after reading the reviews - I was shocked! I've been to this location a dozen times and have left happy on each occasion.
Food - no surprises here - wings, burgers, etc. (salad with chix in your choice of sauce - is my favorite - Huge!)
Good selection of beers and I have always been lucky with good service from a cute waitress. Â Family and I were just there a week ago and had a great time!
I would agree wings are on the small side and the bill can grow quickly, especially for a family or group but, for a once in a while stop - it will do.
Ironically, I think this is actually one of the best BWW locations, behind only the Deer Valley one. North Scottsdale location was the worst for me - service there was a joke!
I have been a frequenter of this Buffalo Wild Wings for about five years now. I usually only get wings from them on wing nights, and typically this is only on the boneless nights. I have sat down at the restaurant many times during this time, though, and so my review will be based on those experiences as well.
In general, ordering in by phone and picking up your order at the counter on wing nights where the specials are cheap is usually easy and not too much of a hassle. The only problem I've had with this is that the cooks can take liberty with how much sauce they give you and even the amount of wings they give you. I suggest that if the cashier doesn't open your boxes and show you your food before you leave that you do this on your own. That way if anything is off (not the amount of wings you ordered; not enough sauce; wrong flavors) you can address it right then.
In regards to eating in, I haven't had as much of a good time. The food quality is usually better when I eat in because they apply more sauce to the wings and they have the instant response if they mess up. With that said, the service has been very poor about 90% of the time I've eaten in. Usually after being sat (which can take anywhere between a minute if they aren't very busy to a forty five minute wait when they are), it has taken our server far too long to address that we are there. I have found that when the place is busy the servers generally have too much on their plates and end up slacking on filling drinks and checking in on the tables. The wait time for food is usually long, as well, when the place is busy.
The food is really good. If you've been to a Buffalo Wild Wings somewhere else, then you know how good it is. But the service almost makes it not worth it.
If you like watching sports at a sports bar, this is definitely a great place to go since they have lots of TVs and are always showing the games. The place can get packed on these nights, but if you like that atmosphere, definitely try it out.
Overall, I love Buffalo Wild Wings' boneless wings and the sauces that accompany them, but I suggest you skip the eating in in this Flagstaff restaurant and just get the food to-go.
Here's why I really dislike this place: the food tastes pretty lame, and the service is the pits. Honestly, if this weren't a chain, they have the perfect recipe for closure. The only reason why I go here at all is because a lot of my friends like to go out to eat here. There's only one gluten free thing on the menu by the way: the naked tenders, which are rubbery and have absolutely no flavor (they're just a vehicle for the bbq sauce). The last time I went there was the kicker, and I will not be going back because of my experience. Our waitress, I believe her name was Ashley, let us know that the chefs accidentally made us an extra 6 piece of the hottest wings (Blazin' hot), something that's usually a "yay!" moment. Not so much. She then put down a box of FIVE wings and said, "So, I tried one of these, and it made me want to throw up because it was so hot." Wow, seriously? So, she ate our food, and then basically told us that it made her sick. Not going back EVER AGAIN.
