Who doesn't love a great sports bar? My husband and I spent the better part of football season here. Cool bartenders, great beer selection, and HUGE TV's. Downside? There are only a few good eats on the menu. Salt and vinegar wings are to die for and so are the build your own burgers.
Review Source:I can't say that I was overly impressed with this place. Â I will say it is a nice place to watch a game though. Â Maybe it was because it was very late Monday night, maybe it was because there was nine of us and it was very late, but for what ever reason the food was eh....the service was eh.........and to be honest I really wanted to like this place but I just see it as average. Â Sorry guys but I wouldn't make any kind of special trip here again.
Review Source:The first few experiences at this restaurant was horrible! I would not have recommended this restaurant in the beginning. However the last three times I have been the staff has been wonderful and provided excellent service. I definitely have a better recommendation for this restaurant. They have great offers for happy hour on beer and appetizers that I highly recommend for a great low price.
Review Source:Two days ago My friends and I decided we would go all the way to Melbourne to go to BWW from Vero Beach for a girls night. As soon as we walked in we got sat right away, about 5 feet away from the host stand, who started to point at my friends and I and talk and laugh to her manager for about 10 minutes. Then when we did say something to our server Shaun, we asked him why his coworkers were pointing and laughing. Rather than explain, he preceded to yell at us for a couple of minutes. Without us speaking another word, he refused to serve us. He walked away and passed the manager who was right behind our table and no one ever came closer to find out what the problem was. We left and after walking out the door the host who was making jokes with her manager walked outside and watched us leave. We went next door to Long Horn and told our server what just happened and he confirmed that he has had many customers that described encounters like ours.
We contacted their corporate offices and have had no reply. Surprise, surprise.
We will never visit this establishment again.
Loud, overpriced, disengaged staff, slow service, mediocre-at-best food.
It only takes one visit to see why the initial grand opening crowds died down. When your wings are your reputation and signature item, you damn well better bring your A-game to back it up. This Buffalo Wild Wings falls down with an epic faceplant fail on that task. Their traditional wings are served in a folded paper bowl (you won't get a plate here), small, wimpy, and can't compete with any others I've tried in the area. And their boneless wings? Think Wal-Mart frozen food. My 9-yr old could make better wings in our deep fryer at home if I'd let her. The celery & carrot sticks are laughable - you get 3 of each. They boast 16 different sauces, and I've tried several including their hottest, but none are particularly memorable.
Did I mention this place is LOUD? Wall-to-wall flatscreen TVs endlessly compete to drown each other out to the point you nearly have to shout at each other across the table to have a conversation. I've seen this business model done right with other franchises (i.e., Taco Mac), where the service, food, and drinks actually contribute to the experience, rather than take away from it - Buffalo Wild Wings would be well served to take notes.
There is nothing about this place that is charming or appealing to me. It has no soul or anything that makes me want to go back. The servers and bartenders have the personality of a dial tone and aren't attentive - annoyingly long waits between server sightings when the place was virtually empty and having to order some things twice just adds to the fun. The staff seem more interested in talking and hanging out with each other - the customers are more of an afterthought. Watered down and overpriced cocktails and temped beer are the final nail in the coffin. That's why it's empty on a Friday night even with 100 sports TVs playing.
Long Doggers is just down the street, has MUCH better wings and sauce, better atmosphere and service too. I'd venture to say that's where most of the grand opening crowd went back to after going there and experiencing what we and several other reviewers here did (including the "filtered" negative reviews that must have hit too close to home and got flagged).
There are enough common denominators in the problems this place and the Longhorn Steakhouse next door share to make be suspect the same ill-advised, hands-off franchise owner(s) are at the helm, as they opened approximately a month apart [UPDATE: We gave Longhorn another chance and found they had miraculously turned around all their issues from their early months in business, so from where I'm sitting Buffalo Wild Wings doesn't even have the common franchise owner excuse anymore]. With such a gaping hole in the variety of non-chain restaurants to choose from in Palm Bay and all the empty commercial real estate space, it is a felony to the restaurant business that so much was invested in constructing such a dismal excuse for a restaurant that will inevitably have a For Lease sign in front of it if major changes aren't made soon.
In general, I am a big buffalo wild wings fan! However, this one only gets a 3 because of the service at this one. When there are only 2-3 of us that go on the weekend, we get great service! However, anytime we go with more than 3 at anytime, service is mediocre at best. My biggest complaint is that the food takes so long to cook for these parties, like 45 minutes or so. Other than that, it has a great atmosphere and sports on all the time!
Review Source:I first visited this restaurant when they first opened, it was just way too packed and it was a 3 hour event, in and out the door. But now that the dust has settled, the holidays are over, march madness is done, and I've visited this restaurant probably 30 times now, I can honestly say that this place is the most consistent when it comes to food quality, and service. Nowhere is perfect, but at least when there is a screw up, the manager is quick to repair the problem. They have a decent menu, with plenty of choices, and their sauce guide is very helpful (my favorites are Thai Curry, and Mango Hebenro). The lunch menus are great, and after weeding out all of the bad apples they have a great competent serving staff. On Tuesdays the traditional wings are on sale and Thursday's the boneless wings are on sale. They do wings right, but to make sure they coat the wings well ask for the wings wet.
There are a lot of TV's all over the place, and if you want them to change a channel the server will be glad to help you with that. The place is clean, and the wifi is fast, you just have to sign on using your browser on your wireless device. Trivia  games are also available to play using their devices or your own smartphone or tablet. I like to play using my iPad.
Hope to see you there for lunch Tuesday afternoon :)
Their location says Norfolk Parkway West Melbourne but really they are on Palm Bay road near the new Target and next to the AT&T company store, one block from I95.
I can't believe I am actually writing about this dump. Â Place was empty for a Friday lunch 1:30 and although plenty of staff milling about, food service took at least 1/2hr. (this is for chicken, did they get the food from down the road) Â I was wondering what will they do if crowded or does the clientele only drink. Â Food was subpar, and if average of $7.50 per customer less drink is the norm, this place should be floundering and out of business soon. Â At least at the beaches, most lousy restaurants will cater to the snowbirds that don't care about food, ambience, or price and will still survive, but Buffalo Wild Wings is a crime to the restaurant business. Put this place out of its misery. Â
Note enough TV's here to have a great close out sale. Â Need to start looking at the corporation and buy puts.
This place is newer to the West Melbourne area- so it's always packed. Â It's great place to watch a UFC fight at if you don't want to spend the money at home. Â You must get there early for any kind of fight or sporting event. Â There are soooo many tv's that you can't miss a second of an event. Â The bar and wings are like any other Buffalo Wild WIngs. Â Good! Â I'll go back again!
Review Source:Wings did not soar here, instead it left me a little sore. Our wings were just slathered with way too much sauce. I had the garlic sauce; it was a weird combo of wing sauce, butter or mayonnaise, and garlic. Â In addition, Wings and ribs seemed over cooked. Â
Service was ok.
Pretty much a disappointing meal with no chance of a repeat visit. There are too many places to go to eat better food.
Went one week after opening and was served substitute chicken nuggets and a cheeseburger with a very cheap chuck patty because they ran out of their own stuff. The waitress knew but did not tell us until my husband confronted her. She said the manager bought frozen stuff from the grocery store down the street. The manager compensated one of the meals but not the other or the appetizer (they were substituted with the grocery store food too). I wrote their headquarters but that was ignored. Talk about making a bad first impression. Disgusting.
Review Source:Opening day. They were crowded but the kitchen was quick. With 30 taps of beer, I wish I had come after work instead of at lunch! I'll definitely be going back. Any open spot on the wall had a TV and this will be a great place to go watch some football. The food was standard BWW fare. If you've eaten at one before you know what to expect.
