This place definitely is the headquarters for March Madness. Â I came here and sat for literally 3.5 hours and the waitress was extremely friendly. Â The drinks werent too expensive either: $4 for a well vodka. Â Also, B-dubs always has the most and some of the best sauces to choose from. Â I have never had one that I did not enjoy. Â
Side note, gotta come here to check out the happy hour soon. Â Half off apps and $3 jack and cokes and Absolut mixers. Â Plus you can play some trivia all night long. Â Sorry if I beat the other players too bad.
This restaurant chain continues to arise in business conversations due to: <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nytimes.com%2F2009%2F10%2F13%2Fbusiness%2Feconomy%2F13wings.html&s=bf6f7a3459ca83d0cd9757c306d55e152101325f917adf63f3cb49ad8d93d477" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.nytimes.com/2…</a>.
All the MBAs are talking about it.
I've been polite enough to table my Michael Pollan and Food Inc based concerns during such discussions.
So long as you know all that, cool.
As for the food - lots of great sauce combinations, but can you really enjoy them if you're skeptical of the basic ingredient, the chicken? Not really.
The beer selection - super large tap, but very few (if any) micro-brews. BUMMER.
But! The real reason we were here - to watch the 2012 Presidential Election. And for this occasion, this place was awesome. Chill. Nonchalant. Lots of TVs. And we could each pick our own respective stations from a compilation of sources.
(Yes, I watched with my boss. And we had a swell evening.)
Came here last night for some March Madness action. Â It was my first time at the new location across 22 from Penn Center East. Â Although it was extremely busy, we had excellent service by our waitress. Â Got the hot boneless wings, and holy crap were they hot. Â They were so hot in fact, I couldn't finish them really. Â That's rare in my book, as I love spicy. Â Mind you, I did have a dinner before I came here for a late night... so that could be a factor. Â Overall, great BWs and I will be back.
Review Source:My review is going to be about their carryout, and the service we received while waiting for the food. The staff there was nothing but SUPER nice! They offered us free drinks since we had to wait about 5-10 minutes. The food was perfect, the order was all correct and from what I saw of the other staff for the eat in area, they were on their toes!! They seem to really know what their doing there!!
Review Source:This is a big empty sterile room pretending to be a sports bar. There are TV's everywhere; even screens inches from neighboring screens which created a strange alter viewing experience. Â
The service was pretty good but I don't really care for waiters that plop themselves down @ your table like you're old friends. Um, just take our order please.
The wings must be eaten that night or they get chewy and gross. You'll have to trust me.  We ordered the  Asian spicy wings, the mango habanero wings (serious emphasis on the HABANERO that blasts your tongue and lips w/ a relentless nerve dulling heat), and the salt/vinegar wings. They were all crispy and tasty but the celery/carrot side was far too small or perhaps it was because my mouth was on fire and I needed to extinguish the pain but my prayers went unanswered. Order /eat the hottest ones last or you won't taste ANY flavors that follow.
I just wasn't impressed with the decor nor the general vibe of the place. I see it as more of a wing/beer joint for tables of college or high school boys and men just back from hunting bears. Seriously, it's more of a dude kinda joint which is fine.
Their wing serving sizes are really great because you can order 6 wings w/ each flavor you choose. Nice option.
Beer was cold and there were good solid draft options.
Been her twice. Once for lunch once for diner.
This is a new building and therefor new and clean looking. The space is very large with two rooms. One is the main dining room and the other is the bar area. Both are huge. Both have more TVs than I could possible count. The have many high-tops in the bar area and plenty of tables and booths in the dining space. The two areas sort of run into each other without a hard wall separating the two, just a lot of TVs and booths separate.
What did I eat.... well Wings!
The medium buffalo wings were pretty good, but I would like them fried a bit more and not rushed out with the skin still a little less than crisply cooked. The buffalo sauce was good albeit a bit too salty for my taste. Because of this issue (to me anyway) Â they are not on the top of my wings list, but good enough to have more that once.
On one occasion I tried the boneless wings. I don't think I like them as well. I tried them because of not liking the skin on my last order of regular wings. But the breading was too thick and way overcooked. They could be a lot better with less breading and not cooked into a hockey puck / biscuit like rock. I think they can make good boneless wings, it might just depend on who is in the kitchen. I'll definitely try them again.
I must tell you if you like fries, they are excellent here. Had them twice with similar superb results. Hot, tasty and not greasy. Also the slaw is very good; crisp, clean crunchy slaw which goes very well with the fries and wings.
RANT: Â We just moved to PGH from FL & decided to try B-Dubbs. It was a Wed nite, no games were going on, fairly quiet evening.
From the time we were seated until the time a server approached the table was 14 mins. She stated she wasn't our server but will take our drink order. Another 8 mins passed when Angela N. came over with those drinks that we had ordered from the first server.
Angela took our order & served us. She never came back to
(a) ask us how our meal is or if we needed anything (I needed condiments for my burger)
(b) offer a refill on our teas or water (we had spicy sauce & were parched) and
(c) bring our check.
Instead, we had to ask two passing servers for condiments, napkins, drink refills  & our check. That was 4 requests to 2 other servers. My spouse & I consider ourselves to be great tippers as we eat out alot. We would never stiff a server, however, we were compelled to give the other two servers Angela's tip. Angela only got 10%.
Needless to say, we were highly disappointed in the service as the restaurant was not busy & seemed fully staffed. The other 2 servers were friendly & accommodating.
The Jax, FL and Fort Walton Beach, FL B-Dubbs were great. However we will not go to store #0302 again because of the poor service.
Let me preface this review with "good grief".
I've been to this location twice: dined in once and chose take-out the other time. Both experiences were awful food and service wise.
When I dined in, my waitress was slow to bring drinks, take our order, bring refills, and so forth. When she brought out my mild traditional wings, it was a disaster. Half of my wings were drenched in sauce and the other half looked bare. And sad. I took a knife and sauced up my wings.
When I chose take-out, it was just as bad. I had to repeat my order several times over the phone. It's sad because I only had one order. I also ordered a Mango Lemonade (which is one of the most amazing drinks I've ever had) and when I asked what sizes they had, he said he didn't know but would give me an XL, which I didn't know existed. When I went to pick up my order, the XL drink was really a 20oz. cup. He said he didn't know that the specialty drinks only came in one size SO if you're dining in, order the Mango Lemonade and get your money's worth - for me. Anyway, I also ordered a side of celery and it was missing so I drove back because let me tell you, I love celery. The guy threw my celery in the bag and stared at me as if I ripped him off. I wish I had the time to stare back.
I walked out of BWW realizing I'd never return again. Unless they sent me the recipe for their Mango Lemonade.
Is there a better place to get wings and watch some games? Maybe but not in Monroeville. (I rank the Rivertowne as a more complete restaurant but this review is based on wings only).
The staff are good, the service is fast and the wings - so many varieties of sauces. I'm a fan of the mango habanero, asian zing and spicy garlic. But it's hard to go wrong with any of their varieties. Love me some b-dubs!
Wing night is Tuesday for the "traditional" wings, which are the closest flavor to the "originals" at Frank and Teressa's Anchor Bar, you'll find anywhere. I think their special is .45 cent wings. Other specials throughout the week.
Great wings, friendly staff, nice open surroundings. It will even be nicer if smoking is banned from the bar area. Park around back, you might not see the BWW sign from the main road. I think there's an Applebee's out front you'll see first, but this place is worth searching for.
Order "traditionals", with a little sauce on the side, maybe some cheese (wedge) fries in case your tongue catches fire.
I don't want to sound like a (non-smoking) nut - but I'd like to leave an establishment and not take the smell of smoke with me on my clothes and what's left of my hair.
These are the best wings available from any national restraint or fast food chain. Go to the website and find the map to find the closest restaurant to you - <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.buffalowildwings.com%2F&s=5bb4a1a0ebd5c4085daf25a718f6756f00fffde07bda66ae15c8973f6e40dd58" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.buffalowildwi…</a>
There are four in the Pittsburgh area and one in Erie. Other restaurants have opened in MD (3), NY (14), DE (3), VA (15), WV (5), NC (10), SC (4), DE (3), VA (15), TX (50+).
You ask is it worth making a trip and using $4 a gallon gas to find these restaurants. You're darn right its worth it.
i need buffalo wild wings to move closer to home!!! Â i live in Boston but my sister lives in Pittsburgh and bw3's (not sure why she calls it this) is one of the first stops when i go out there. Â and i can be sure for Christmas and my birthday one of her gifts (and my favorite) is a 3 pk of sauces. Â the food....the atmosphere....the service....i love it!!
