There's another Buffalo Wild Wings on Ray and McQueen that is nicer than this one. Â When you walk into this location, it has the same feel as an old Denny's. Â My party and I stood by the "wait to be seated" sign for a few minutes. Â Servers walked by and no one acknowledged us. Â It was a Sunday night, busy but there were still plenty of empty tables. Â One of the people I went there with said they had to use the restroom and asked if we'd order them a beer when we finally got a table. Â When he came out of the restroom we were still standing there, unacknowledged. Â With plenty of other options to dine nearby, we left.
Review Source:I have been twice now. Â Both times I went in looking for good wings. Â Both times I walked out disappointed.
I had the boneless both times. Â The chicken is lost in the heavy breading. Â Very dry.
I do like their options for various flavors. Â The Mango Habanero is excellent. Â Also like that they offer a dry season.
But if I am looking for good wings or boneless in this case, there are some other places I will look first.
Great for football viewing. Â Also they offer UFC fights. Â Also nice selections of beer.
Honey bbq wings and a ice cold blue moon is the most yummy thing in the world. I cant eat this every day but i will say that at least once a week. I love that they let you try all their sauces for the wings, im thinking of changing my honey bbq for something more spicy. Also try the fried pickles, Very good. Â I have never encounter any problems with the service, always quick refills!!
Review Source:Came here yesterday for the first time in probably over a year. One thing I can't stand about BWW is that they use paper tray's for their wings and fries, which is unsustainable, but I won't start on that tangent :)
I'm not a huge wing person, so I decided on the buffalo chicken sandwich. It came out quickly enough, and besides their not being sauce on the whole sandwich (just a little drizzle down the middle), it was pretty good. Our server was attentive and nice, and as we were in a crunch for time, we were in and out in no time.
I completed the "Blazin' Challenge" and whooo buddy was I burnin'. It was fun though. The only con: they make you pay for the challenge, like $20 for the wings, they didn't have our shirts, and your name only stays on the board for a short while. Everything else was good though - wings are great & they have lots of flavors to choose from.
Review Source:This place, and the one on Elliot near Cooper Rd got me thinking BWW has my favorite wings. I know I like to spread the love on local businesses and this isn't really one, but it's locally owned. I see the owner all the time in the restaurants, or at Gilbert parade and events so I feel like I'm still supporting a local business.
I also did the Blazin' Challenge here Jan 2012. I finished it in 5:57. With 3 seconds left to go! So look for my picture gracing the wall for the rest of 2012. The real challenge with that is being able to eat 12 wings in 6 minutes. That is tough enough by itself. I do have to say Teakwoods has hotter wings than here but this is enough to put me in sooo much pain.
When I'm not trying to kill myself with blazin wings, I love watching games/fights here. There is a bazillion TV's everywhere. They usually have great drink specials when I'm there and of course I'm tearing up some wings since they are amazing!
Even compared to other BBW in the valley, I feel like the owner makes her staff go above and beyond and I get a better experience here than any other BBW outside of Gilbert.
Protip: If you live in the area, sign up for their text updates and I get messages from them letting me know when they have "extra special" specials.
The TV's are nice, the beer is cold, and the food is OK. I originally wrote a "if you have been to one, you've been to them all" review because they really are all very similar - that's what franchises do... but the management reached out and wanted to make things right! So I have updated the review and now I'll eat my words, and who knows? Maybe their wings???
Review Source:This is a regular spot for my hubby and I to take the kids, hang out and enjoy some good wings. They are always so willing to let us taste and re taste the sauces and will even exchange wings if we really don't like the flavor we picked. We go enough now that we pick the same thing all the time but for newcomers don't be intimidated by so many choices.
The fried pickles are SO good and they have some great happy hour specials as well.
The service has always been good for us and friendly.
There are a ton of good choices for beer on tap and bottled and overall it is a great spot. If you are looking for quiet though, pick someplace else. It is a very loud place and that makes it a great place to bring the kids;-)
In the past year, sadly, my husband and I have witnessed the closing of a few different BWW locations. Our favorite was just across the street from Fiesta mall and conveniently on my route home. I used to come to this location years ago when it first opened.
My hub and I are big BWW fans, so I took him to this one and he liked it. It's only a few minutes from our house. We're big chicken enthusiasts, so we hit it up once a month. When my in-laws come into town, we go with them. My 2yr old LOVES their mini corn-dogs and french fries. She likes to watch all the tvs too.
Let's talk service: Back when they first opened, service was spectacular. Barely any waiting, quick on the refills, and very friendly. Years later, the friendliness is still there, but that's about it. Sometimes we wait up to half an hour waiting for our wings. That's just too long for wings. Seriously! Also, wouldn't you think in a place that serves spicy wings, the refills would be continuous. Not so much. There have been a few times where I've stopped eating because I refuse to continue without my beverage to cool off with in between wings.
So-so service, loud restaurant, but REALLY good wings. We'll be back soon, always hoping for better service. :)
For some reason my son LOVES the kid's burger here; it's the only place where he actually eats his burger before his fries - and for a 3 year old, that's some magic!
We prefer this location over the one at Elliot & McQueen - the service is a little better and I like the layout. Â It's especially good if we can get the couches to lounge on. Â I wouldn't call this a real sports bar, but it definitely tries with several TVs and a big screen. Â But for me, it's just too tame to attract any hardcore sports fans. Â For what it is, though, it's good - a place where I can watch an hour of the game while my son and I enjoy some all-American grub. Â The wings are decent, I don't recommend the nachos, but I really like the mini corndogs. Â The service is friendly and although I find the surcharge for ranch or extra sauce completely ridiculous, I can put up with it for some family fun.
Remember on the sitcom Cheers how "...everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came..." - well, that's how I feel when I go to this particular Buffalo Wild Wings. I'm always treated like a visiting friend who everyone is happy to see. And though I have a special order (wings cooked 8 extra minutes) it's right every time.
I take editing/critique work up there and spend an hour or so at it (gets me out of the office once in a while). MJ always keeps my glass full and the wings crispy. I get a lot done and am treated to terrific conversation. I can't say enough about this place or the people there.
If you love wings, this Buffalo Wild Wings is a must. And have them add 8 extra minutes. It's worth the wait.
BBW is a great place to take the family and have a beer and some wings,watch some sports and watch people.
Yes its mostly bar food but its good bar food.
The main reason I go is the owner Gail gives back to local community and schools and is not greedy about sharing and helping others. I have never met her,wouldnt know her if I saw her but I have seen the things she has done for the local teams,schools and even churchs in this day of political correctness.
Thumbs up, thanks!
First off... LOVE the fried mushrooms and fried pickles... honestly can't really find those anywhere else around - not that i've seen.
Wings are always good though I do have a issue with the amount of hard breading that's on the boneless chicken wings... always seems excessive.
Salsa seems to change temperature, the girl says sometimes it's too hot for her, but mostly is the same. Different cooks perhaps?
Celery costs extra = lame... it's frickin celery... Anyways, at least they don't charge for refills lol... (yet).
Location is great for college/pro sports as it's packed and always some good cheering going on... fun to be there during games. Â Place gets packed during UFC fights too fyi. Â Cool basketball arcade game too! Â Lots of TV's too
BW'S is a family favorite. That's not just a slogan. My kids are Gluten free and there are not a whole lot of places I can take them for dinner.
They can eat the chicken wings no sauce and we are all addicted to their fries.
I know Gail the owner. She used to have a play kitchen in her restaurant for the kids but unfortunately corporate made her remove it.
She tries to create an atmosphere where parents can bring their kids and they don't have to stress out about making them behave like 70 year old ladies. It makes it a little more relaxing for us.
And besides the food I love being able to watch sports while I'm with my family.
Good Stuff, Thanks Gail
For opening night of the NFL season, I followed a meetup group to Buffalo Wild Wings. Â The overall experience was mediocre at best. Parking was a challenge - at first I was excited to see available spots in front of the restaurant. Despite the yellow caution tape that appeared either a tree was falling or a crime had recently taken place, the car in front of me drove through and parked. I followed the lead, only to soon discover that those spots were roped off and we had to find another parking spot. Being a busy game night, all of the remaining spots were filled in the back, the sides and even around the defunct restaurant next door. Eventually I found a spot and made my way to the front door, where I discovered much like the parking lot, nothing was available. I made my way to the bar and wedged by way betwixt two apparent regulars.
The atmosphere was naturally very loud. A restaurant with several televisions, a packed house and music during the commercials made it difficult to communicate. Looking over the large selection of beers on tap, I was excited to see some of my favorites. One of the bartenders gave a rundown of the specials and mentioned that although other things were on sale, they just tapped the Oktoberfest keg. Sounds great! How much is that? $5.50, she said. Being that it was 5:30, I was expected some happy hour prices on something. Combined with the NFL opening night, I thought surely there is a deal to be had here. How about Kilt Lifter? When she said $6, I was surprised. Some of my favorite establishments offer that brew for $2.25 during happy hour and only $4.50 at off-times. Thanks, I'll go with a Miller LIte. Perhaps there was a special because my receipt showed the first Miller Lite was $3.50, and the next two were $4.00 each. Wouldn't it be nice if bars offered drinks in economies of scale? The more you drink, the cheaper it is? But I digress...
I ordered the buffalo wings, because really, how can you go to a place called Buffalo Wild Wings and not have the Wild Wings, from Buffalo? An order of 12 wings was $8.99. Seems a little high for a 5:30 time slot. I went with the hot - and they were hot (spicy and temperature) at first, but as the temperature cooled down, I didn't notice the spice portion being that hot. Unfortunately most of the wings were about the size of a McNugget. I barely found 1-2 that I would have considered normal size. If it were a fish, I'd throw it back.
Meeting a friend, I placed an order for the ribs & shrimp combo, which set us back $12.50 and while the portion was descent, it was less impressive than the McNugget wings. The fries were good, the popcorn shrimp small but tasty, and it even had some cole slaw - surprisingly the best part of the plate. The ribs were small and didn't have a lot of meat on them - which wasn't really a bad thing because what meat was there really had no flavor whatsoever. It wasn't even that hot either. Maybe warm, but closer to room temperature. Certainly not something I would repeaidly order t for $12.50.
All in all, the challenge to find parking and a side, the loud atmosphere which reminded me why I don't like many guys, and a tab of mediocre food & drink totaling more than $35.00 for a two-three hour extravaganza, left me thinking next time I will skip it and find somewhere that provided better food and prices.
I am between 3.5 to 4 stars but the service was great so I bumped the review up.
I like the shrimp and the boneless wings, great selection of sauces. I ate lunch there with some friends and they said their salad and sandwich were average, but nothing to write home about (they did eat all their food)
If your there to watch sports, you will love it. If your there to talk shop or do a little business it was a little noisy and there are TV's everywhere distracting you.
Bottom line, Good sports bar and fun place, not the best place to do business.
I will be back for shrimp and boneless wings and to enjoy a cold one with the game
I was torn between "meh" and "A-ok" on this one but went with the 3 stars because the service was good. Â Food was more on the "meh" side. Â
Ordered boneless wings, which I wasn't aware it also meant chicken-less wings - more breading than chicken in my opinion. Â Although I have to say I love all the flavors they have to choose from for the sauce - they bring out all the sauces with little spoons so you can try the different flavors.
For dinner got the Parmesan Garlic Chicken flatbread - very much on the "meh" side. Â It was kinda dry and bland. Â Not something I would order again. Â
We might be back as they have a ton of tvs and seems like it would be a cool place to watch a game, but I will try the bone-in wings next time and something other than flatbread.
I'm not hugely into sports, but I go there with friends to hang out and have a good time. We all like wings and BBQ so this place is popular and we take over the couches and coffee table whenever we can and watch off the TVs and chill out after a long day and watch what's on.
The food there is good, pretty average but not necessarily disappointing! I really like the honey BBQ wings and ribs combo - the ribs are separated and come with lots of fall-off-the-bone meat. The ranch and celery served is fresh and compliments the food we get. My boyfriend has ordered the Bacon burger there and he was really happy with it when he got it and ate it pretty fast! Good drinks (nonalcoholic) and the tea isn't bad!
I like the servers there - never met one who was inattentive or unfriendly. We can usually strike up conversation with them, and if we ask if they can change a channel for us, they have always complied willingly. We tend to visit during the off-hours so there's not much of a crowd there. Whether its family or friends, this place caters to what we wanna do - eat well and have fun!
On a final note, the bathrooms always look clean and have TVs with the game playing, so you never miss a beat or play!
I was pleasantly surprised when I tried Buffalo Wild Wings for the first time yesterday. The boneless hot wings were mighty tasty. They also offer a remarkable selection of wing sauces from garlic to habenero. The atmosphere is full on  "sports bar" - I can imagine it gets really packed in here on game days.
Review Source:I don't know if it's the fact that we went here twice in one week (once Tuesday and once Thursday) but after like 10 wings or so they all taste the same. Meh...I still love that burning sensation around the mouth when I finish all 12 of the BLAZIN wings and then get to chug them down with BEER!!!
this place gets a 4 for atmosphere, nice staff, good deals on certain nights, and fun entertainment type stuff.
It's a chain, but eating with my fingers, what's not to like. I'm a wimp in the spicy department so, I don't often eat buffalo hot wings because everyone I'm with orders the "hot" ones. Â I like the sauce options at Wild Wings and the and the wings are meaty. I had the Parmesan Garlic and the Asian Zing. It's also cool that small portions are available so I was able to order 2 versions. I was able to tolerate the Asian Zing, so maybe I'll try the mild or even medium classic versions next time.
My hubby ordered the Jerk Chicken Sandwich and he really liked it. The onion rings were pretty darn good, too.
The only thing negative on this visit was the sucky Berry Lemonade made with Minute Maid Lemonade, I thought for the price it would have been fresh squeezed, but alas I did not read the small type.
I recently bought a great coupon book, that has discounts for everything imaginable in my area. I figured, since we're new to this part of the Valley, I'd buy it (not to mention the $$ goes towards a great cause).
Went to BWW's, after driving past it a couple of times....should've done exactly that, keep on driving.
We decided to use our buy 1 sampler, get one free... Sat at the bar, with some old horny drunk next to me, trying to hit on all the girls. We ordered the BBQ sandwich sliders and a sampler platter (onion rings, boneless wings, nachos, mozzarella sticks w/3 dipping sauces). Hubby ordered some beer and I drank a "berry" lemonade.
Got our drinks which BTW, were not that good...beer wasn't as "hoppy" as my husband would've liked it to be, he asked the bartender which was a better choice and she was useless. My lemonade tasted like crap...my next order was water.
Food got to us, but we had no utensils or napkins, had to ask for those. Onion rings were really good, mozz sticks were ok as well... wings...isn't this what this place is known for... they were mediocre. Tried the sliders...I've had better pulled pork (like the one I make or Famous Dave's).
Once we were done eating, I had to ask for my bill abt 3x's. Thankfully we had that coupon, because if it was up to me, I wouldn't have paid squat!
I was contemplating giving the rest of the coupons that I had for this place, to the guys next to me...we won't be needing them.
This place is AWWWWWEEEEESSSEOOOMMMMEEE!!! I'm so happy to have found it.  I'm not here to review the rest of the menu because I don't think it matters...all that matters is how are the darn wings right?  Well let me tell ya! They are stupendous!  They are just the right bite size (I hate those HUGE wings) and they are steaming hot and juicy.  They have a large variety of sauces from mild to their famous "Blazin'".  Well I eat super hot so I went staight to the "Blazin".  I was so afraid that it wouldn't live up to the hotness level that it claimed but NOPE...it was HOT.  I was sweating all over and fidgeting in my seat from the spicyness  but it was also deeelicious too.  So if you like super hot wings that actually taste good too...you have come to the right place.
Review Source:I have been to many of the BWW locations around the state and all seem to have very similar service and food. Â Its too bad their service is not good, because this place can have some great specials and good wings. Â BWW also has a decent selection of beer, although there have been a couple of times where the waitress doesn't know anything about beer. Â Here is an example:
Me: Do you have Kiltlifter on tap?
Waitress: No. (I order something else and she takes everyones else's order)
Waitress: Â Well wait a minute, do you mean Four Peaks? Â Because we have Four Peaks?
Me: Â Four Peaks Kiltlifter?
Waitress: Yes.....
In summary I would have given this place 4 stars for the food, but the sometimes long waits and the unknowledgeable staff make it 3 stars.
I've gone to this location a couple of times, mostly because the boyfriend suggests it often and its close to home. But, I can't say I've ever had a bad experience. I've tried a few different things on the menu (considering I'm not a huge fan of wings... weird huh?). I think my favorite was the chicken breast sandwich with a honey BBQ sauce. I got a side salad... it was a little weird, but they didn't have an italian dressing- not sure if they were out or if they didn't carry one. Either way, the ranch dressing worked well. We also tried the popcorn shrimp as an appetizer.. those were very good as well.
Review Source:BW3 used to stand for Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck. Â What happened to Weck? Â Was he fired? Â Can they legitimately still call themselves BW3 if they are really BW2? Â Is that misleading? Â Are they Buffalo Wings and Water now? Â That won't work because only Beer washes down chicken wings properly. Â Then they would be BW2&B. Â That's just awkward.
Anyway, I had the jerk chicken sandwich. Â They actually pulled it off better than I expected. Â The spice rub had plenty of pleasant hottness and it was seared and slightly blackened. Â The wings were pretty tasty (I grabbed one of my wife's) but not as good as the ones I make at home.
Service was good and the atmosphere was an interesting and almost fun mix of sports bar and family restaurant. Â We happened to hit on Guitar Hero night so the kids liked that. Â Who doesn't want to hear Orange Crush 7 times in a row? Â Who doesn't want to hear Orange Crush 7 times in a row? Â Who doesn't want to hear Orange Crush 7 times in a row?

I have eaten at BW3 in a few states and I like the bar atmosphere and the great wings. Â My favorite sauce is the Asian Zing. Â It can be packed so unless you want to be crushed by sports fans, don't go on a big game day. Â Oh and there is one disgusting thing on the menu, I think its called Southwest poppers, totally barfable, not even the staff will eat them.
Review Source:Once again, this is a chain, so you know what you're getting when you walk in the door.
This particular location isn't my favorite, and I cant really quantify why. Â Maybe its because the place is usually packed when I decide to show up. Â Maybe I was just bloated and irritated each of the two times that I creased their cushions.
Anyway, I like wings, and I LOVE the BWW (not BBW) Asian Zing. Â Its sweet, its spicy... kind of like Charo on the Surreal Life. Â You gotta admit, she's pretty hot for being what... 89 years old.
Hey you wacky vegetarians... check out their garden burger. Â This omnivore says: "Pretty darn good".
-Swoop
I've been here several times in the last year or so, and I feel like I must have been drunk each time because I swear I hardly remember anything. Â Then again, maybe I do remember it correctly all things considered....
We go here to watch football with friends. Â I can tell you more about the games than I can the food, though I remember really liking the wings and the fries. Â And my friend likes one of their burgers - she couldn't remember the name when I asked her. Â What I do remember is they have a great selection of TVs. Â Folks were watching 2-3 different games and everyone thought they had a good seat for it. Â That can be pretty rare in a sports bar. Â And it was LOUD! Â By noon or so we were having to speak pretty loudly just to hear each other. Â
It was still an awesome place to watch the game. Â Food was good (Even if not overly memorable) and the atmosphere felt a bit nicer than a normal sports bar even though most folks were wearing sports themed clothing and yelling at the TV. Â That alone is pretty impressive.
Good food, good drinks, fun bar.
There are quite a few Buffalo Wild Wings in the valley and they're a fun place to grab a quick lunch or dinner and watch the game. Â
They have a pretty good garden burger and their buffalo chips (french fry-ish things) are really good.
If you like bloody mary's, they have the best one. It's so good...really spicy and filled with celery and olives.
Be careful when you come though, if there is a game on, you'll have to get there early or you definitely won't get a spot to sit.
