    a total hole-in-the-wall gem I've somehow missed for way too long @buffalotapsavage -- crazy good juicy lucys, just about anything fried you could crave, and a mean bowl of chili for a cozy fall day. the cocktails?... shockingly good and stiff oh, and they've got pull tabs. will 100% be back -- can totally see how this spot's survived decades with such a loyal fan base.

    Buffalo wings
    Mike H.

    We finally made it to Buffalo Tap after hearing rave reviews about their wings--and they did not disappoint! Visiting early on a weekday was a great call, as this place can get packed. From the moment we walked in, the service was excellent--quick, polite, and attentive. We tried the Buffalo Tap dry rub wings, classic Buffalo wings, and the Double Tap burger (definitely bring your appetite for this beast!). Every bite was packed with flavor, and we're already looking forward to our next visit."

    Buffalo Wings

    Was looking for a place to eat while in Savage. Decided on this place due to the good reviews on the wings and burgers. I was seated promptly and my server was really nice. It seems like a smaller space inside and was a little dark where I was sitting but overall good vibes. I ordered the buffalo wings (mild) which were decent. I like how they were cooked but the flavor of the sauce was mediocre. I also order the Bacon Butchers Burger and it was very good. I enjoyed how the flavors meshed. So much so that I didn't add any condiments to the burger. Overall good experience here.

    We went here on a Friday night and they were able to get it us in right away and the place was pretty busy! I had been here for wings before but wanted to try a burger this time as well. We ended up sharing both and also getting onion rings. The onion rings came out first with the burger and they were pretty cold, I think they would have been better hot obviously but they were nothing special. The burger was also nothing special to me, and I don't think I'd get a burger there again. On the other hand I loved the wings and would come back here for the wings again!

    Wisconsin Juicy Lucy with fries

    A cozy feel and friendly service. This is the kind of place I love to find. It's family friendly and the food's good. I went with the juicy Lucy because it's their thing and I love trying the thing. It's a burger stuffed with cheese (lava temperature so be warned). These are pretty good burgers, although a tad more salt and pepper on the meat wouldn't hurt. Onion rings (not pictured) were more oily than I like, but tasted good. The fried cheese curds (not pictured) were really good, especially in the ranch dip even though I don't love ranch. The wings (not pictured) were good too. We had a little snafu with our order (it's why the onion rings aren't pictured) so we ended up with some mini donuts (not pictured....I was off my photo game everyone, sorry!) which I had five of with the cinnamon dipping cream sauce. It was all good.

    Bison Tap Juicy Lucy

    It wasn't the juiciest Lucy. A bit disappointed. I had the Tap Juicy Lucy bison meat. I was expecting more cheese to ooze out. Tots were good. My husband had the wings with sweet chili sauce. He said they were good. 2 meals no drinks, a bit expensive for bar food...

To the point that I just finished my plate and he instantly took the plate away as well. lol Food all tasted good. Zucchini fries is soft in the inside and a little crispy on the outside.

Bacon Jam burger is known to be a crowd favorite and it delivered. A great cheese and smoke combination complement the burger in a way that just works. Ok the real winner here is that you can sub your fries with one of many sides and the one must try are the Brussels sprouts caramelized and drizzled with a balsamic these are just perfectly executed. And so reasonably priced Northstar Tavern does check all the boxes.

There are many different options for seating, and we were glad our waitress was available to help us with the right table to meet our needs. The menu has many choices, including the salad bar as an option for many entrees. The bar menu is also very complete with interesting cocktails. The entire restaurant has a fine dining feel, quiet and upscale. I have traveled a lot, and have not seen a better looking inside venue for a classic place. The food? Many options, the appetizers which are available are various, we chose the onion rings - these are not to be missed. The batter is amazingly crunchy and the taste of these rings is awesome - I haven't seen better fried in a long time. I am thinking many might miss the appetizers since the salad bar is available, but don't miss these onion rings! I almost forgot the brown bread brought out as an appetizer as they prepare your entree - also very tasty. The entrees we selected arrived piping hot, we chose a cut of prime rib, and this looked like it was from a New York steak house. Extremely appealing with au jus available, although the meat was fork tender without it. My Monte Cristo was amazing, I have not had one in quite a while, and the crispy breading on this dish was outstanding! Even my fries were hot and crispy! This was certainly an outstanding dinner, and immensely enjoyed! We were too full for dessert, so we ordered a slice of their famous chocolate cake for dessert, and found frosting and tiny cups of additional toppings in our to-go bag. We will certainly be back to this fine dining spot!
