Adventures with Dave H. (stop #3) --------------------------------------- After looking for Gypsy Lounge (it looked closed) we moseyed on over to Buffalo Wild Wings, which some friends back in Great Lakes raved about. The whole bar area was surrounded by flat screen TV's...and they were raffling off a Cavaliers jersey right when we walked in (how random is that?) Ordered a round of Irish Coffees ($6/ea) and Irish Car Bombs ($6.50/ea) and the Car Bombs were only half a pint after pouring the Bailey's in. Our waitress (Krysta H.) regularly checked up to see how we were doing and kindly offered to split our checks without prompting. I just wasn't feeling this place...maybe because after 2 Irish Coffees and 1 Irish Car Bomb I was still sober? NEXT! :) read more

I have a hard time saying "No" to really good buffalo wings, so when I was invited here, I got all excited. As excited as one of those horrible Twiheart who has just been told that Edward is real! Oh wait, not that excited, because then it would be annoying. Let's just say, that I was giddy. Came here for happy hour on a Monday night, a few weeks back with a group of friends, after work. We walked straight to the bar area and upon sitting down, I noticed that I was surrounded by flat screen TV's! With one huge screen in the center of them all! There really wasn't much going on the tube, though. They were showing a UFC fight, but it didn't look like anyone was really watching it. I know I wasn't, but this would be a cool place to check out a game (or sport) I actually wanted to see. Upon sitting, the waitress was quick to come over and take our drink order and ... wait for it ... she was back with our drinks in no time at all and we didn't order soda!! It wasn't a slow night either, so I was impressed! She took our order and I went for the 6 wings for a buck special! You can't go wrong with that number! The wings were good! I ordered them spicy and they came out perfectly. Good amount of meat and finger licking gooey! So after eating a few orders of wings and chasing them with some vodka/redbull, I was ready to try something different ... I looked at the menu and there it was ... my heart skipped a beat and I almost shed a tear! They served fried pickles! I was in love ... until I ordered and tried them. Sigh ... so sad. I was expecting them to be a lot like the one's served at Hooter ... with the special pickle sauce, but nope, it wasn't happening. It was a little bland and the only thing they gave me to dip it in was ranch. Minus 1 star. I plan on coming back again soon! I want their wings again and maybe, I'll try one of their 14 other buffalo sauces. As I write this, I'm now craving the Hooter's fried Pickles ..... read more

Our lunch started out with the fried cheese curds, which were very good. For our main meal we had some Korean BBQ wings and some original buffalo wings. They were both pretty good. The Korean BBQ were a tad too sweet for my taste, but they did set off the vinegar-spice of the buffalo wings. The buffalo sauce was good. The complaint I have is that the wings were tough. They were very large and had lots of meat but it was almost unpleasantly tough. For a place with 'wings' in the name, I expected spectacular wings but they were only OK. read more

Came after work for some wings and beer with some current and former coworkers. Service was so slow here (after multiple requests with multiple servers) my friend missed the last train. They were too busy flirting with each other to help us. I almost felt the urge to get up and walk out since they might not have noticed us anyways, but I'm not that kind of person even though this place makes me want to be. read more

I was introduced to the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant chain when I visited a North Las Vegas location a few years back. (I actually Yelp'd it...) And until a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant was finally franchised in Orange County....it was finally time for me to return to an AWESOME flavored chicken wing. You can definitely feed an army of different tastes with Buffalo Wild Wings' different flavored sauces....the problem is what to choose? Don't be shy, ask the waitress for a taste test of most of the sauces. For the first timers to Buffalo Wild Wings....this is your best bet if you want something different than the normal Buffalo Hot Sauce. The waitress have always been very accommodating for my friends who are first timers. For myself, I usually order 12 wings and if I am very very hungry, I will go with the 18 wings. My favorites flavors are standard Buffalo Medium, BBQ Hot, Asian Zing, Caribbean Jerk, and Parmesan Garlic assortment of sauces. Oh yeah.....added BONUS.....high definition televisions are everywhere - your favorite sport will be on somewhere in the dining or bar area. This restaurant is a sports bar meca for the locals who live in the area. My opinion only, but this restaurant is way better for the wings than "Hooters", which is one exit down south on Interstate 5. The restaurant definitely gets crowded when the BIG GAME is on.....so arrive early! I usually come here during the Happy Hour times too....domestic drafts prices drop to $3 and $0.60 wings.....unfortunately, Happy Hour ends at 7:00PM.....too early! I am definitely a big fan of buffalo wings.....and I definitely enjoy the Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant.....Four Yelp Stars! =) read more

this place wins the "festering turd" award for customer service. Some random schmoe was outside smoking a cigarette right in front of the door--nice. The conglomerate of hostesses were nice but were a portent of things to come, since they were all gathered in one useless clump. we got seated at a table that was covered in that layer of smelly water that you see when you wipe the table with a washrag that is soaking wet. i hate that. the seats were wet too. i asked for paper towels to wipe up the table, and in retrospect i wonder if that's why we got stuck with the most apathetic waiter in history. he said three words to us when he showed up, tops. after he took our order, someone else brought us the chips and salsa first. the two salsas were haphazardly thrown into the basket and one had spilled on the chips. i asked for ranch--never got it. one of the other employees wandered through the dining hall with a big bag of trash slung over her shoulder. pretty nasty. our food came, some other server tossed it on our table with barely a word. we asked for napkins and she brought us one tree's worth. Mildly excessive. food-standard. normal. i liked the wings. anyway after a while, i came to the realization that if i wanted my check, i would have to go hunt down the waiter. when i found him, he was in a group of other servers, which, just to be clear, weren't serving anything. i wanted to leave him less than 10% but my wife badgered me into leaving almost 15%. her rationale was that he checked on us twice. he reaaaaally bent over backwards for us, as you can see. i have to say that the clear issue here is the management. you can't blame apathetic kids for being apathetic kids--but you can blame a manager for hiring them. i suggest they fire the five servers that were all standing in a circle talking and replace them with one person who will do something. I feel like I have to let you know that i normally like bww, and the food was standard, so i don't have a bias against the place. read more

I'm a huge fan of chicken wings and have honestly been disappointed with a few popular joints like hooters, wing stop or nuts. Those places gives you lots of chicken but chicken that is dry, burnt, super greasy, and are tiny, or barely have any meat on them! Not this place! The chicken here were pretty meaty, not the meatiest but good for it's price in my opinion and what i LOVE is how it's dunked in whatever sauce you choose. Not to mention you get a side of ranch or blue cheese for dipping at no extra cost. This place is a steal to come on Tuesdays! They are making me battle my normal taco tuesday nights! but here, on Tuesdays its $.55 cent wing night. There are a lot of delish sauces to choose from, from hot, mild, to just plain goodness. The service was excellent! If you guys can have Ashton serve you, then you are for sure going to have a great night! She was on point with everything! I arrived late upon meeting my friends but she noticed, ordered me right away, and got my food out within 5min so I can catch up to them! She constantly checked in on us, made sure we had enough everything, also gave me an extra side of ranch without even asking! This place totally beats out hooters when it comes to the size of their TV's this is hands down an awesome spot to watch sports, they had small tv's to HUGE i'm talking 60" and up. On a big game they shut down their jukebox and play the game in their crazy sound system feels like your at the game live! They also have a spice challenge as well! Blazin is their hottest on the menu but apparently if you can down 6 ATOMIC wings you will have your picture hung on the wall. They sure know how to keep this place fun! Enjoy! read more

This place could basically re-name itself wings, beer, and sports. Considering those are some of my absolute favorite things in the world, it's difficult to imagine how I could not love this place. It can be a little packed on Friday nights, and sometimes the crowd is a little questionable, but in my opinion the Asian Zing wings make it totally worth it. One of the best places to hang out for a game, hands down. read more

Buffalo Wild Wings - Chicken Wings Near Me - Lake Forest, California

It's past 11pm and my stomach starts growling. Where to eat? Where to eat? Buffalo Wild Wings open until 1pm so we find ourselves here on a CROWDED Wednesday night where only the bar area is open. We find one of the few remaining tables open, sit down and realize it's KARAOKE Night. I think to myself "shoot me now...off pitch and please no more reggae songs sung by grown white men!" Can't talk, can't think...so we quickly chow on our overly salty fries and mediocre wings and get out. Don't think I'll be visiting here often...especially on Wednesday nights. read more

I have completely mixed feelings about Buffalo Wild Wings. On one hand, I really enjoy the food and atmosphere and their sauces are amazaballs! Then on the other hand, they are never super crowded, but ALWAYS seem under staffed. I've actually only been here twice and both times it took us about 10-15 minutes after being seated to even be adknowlaged. My man loves, loves, loves their wings, but was a little disappointed last time that they've changed their policy and now if you order 12 wings, you can only chose two different kinds of sauce to have them spun in, rather than three that he prefers. Ultimately, I still REALLY enjoy Buffalo Wild Wings, enough to drive about 20 minutes to get there and I think everyone who likes wings NEEDS to check this place out...I just wish that the staff was little more attentive. read more

We did not order any food because of the attitude, so with that said... I arrived before my friend. I asked the guy at the counter (it looks like for takeout orders), if I should seat myself? He said he didn't know, ask someone else. Nice. I waited a minute by the entrance of the dining room but with nobody appearing or nearby I chose to sit down. After a few minutes, the waiter shows up and without even a hint of a smile asks me if I wanted something to drink. "You know I think I'll wait for my f...", he plopped another drink napkin on the table and was gone. I figured he must have had a bad day. When my friend arrived the waiter, still sullen, took our drink orders and as I said "I'll have a water and...", the waiter had already looked away and was asking my friend what he wanted. No bad day, just RUDE. I then asked about their burgers. He said, "We only cook them medium well", I asked if I could get it well done, "No". I asked why, "we have our standards". I said, "So if a customer is concerned about e-coli and wants a burger cooked well done that isn't possible?" "I can ask the cooks to but I doubt it." So then I asked what he would recommend. His reply "I WORK HERE SO I DO MY BEST NOT TO EAT HERE." We were both stunned, but I was stunned into silence so my friend piped up and asked why. He replied "I SEE WHAT IT REALLY IS SO I DON'T EAT IT." He came back after few minutes, still no smile or any sort of friendly vibe, and said not to let what he said earlier scare us. So my friend asked why he wouldn't eat the food. With attitude dripping from his voice he replied "HAVE "YOU" EVER WORKED IN A RESTAURANT?" The exchange continued but I already knew I wanted to leave. We threw down a dollar for the two waters and left. We had some great burgers AND excellent service at The Counter instead! read more

Finally, some meaty wings! I've been so unimpressed with wings lately...Wing Stop, Hooters, Big Wangs, all have puny, dry poor excuse of a wing, wings! My cousin had been talking this place up to me for awhile until finally I made him take me already! haha, so I definitely arrived with high expectations. Maybe it was the witty bartender, or the ice cold Kona Longboard, or the seasoned, crispy and soft potato wedges, or...the delicious wings that won my heart! Next time I'm trying 'Blazin' because although 'Wild' was hot, it could be hotter. 'Spicy Garlic' was my favorite that day but I will return to try the rest! read more

Good place to hang out and watch the game, but like all of the other BWWs I've been to, food and service here were just meh. I came here recently with my roommate because he was craving wings. As for me, I had 3.5 glasses of water for breakfast so I just needed food in general. I haven't had fish in a while so I decided to get the fish tacos with some hot wing sauce. For 10 bucks, you get 2 decently sized fish tacos and some forgettable chips/salsa. The tacos were somewhat better. Pieces of fried fish were placed on flour tortillas with slaw and a splash of wing sauce. The fish was actually fried alright. I would've liked more slaw and sauce, though. It was feeling kinda dry and the only other sauce they gave me was tartar sauce -___- My roommate happily devoured his wings. But he actually had a craving for the stuff so... Anyway, service was acceptable-ish. They were pretty busy when we arrived and that gave us more time to chill, but it was hard to flag someone down when we needed the bill, even on the tail-end of the lunch rush. All in all, I don't mind BWW and I will probably be back. But with so many other food options in Orange County, I'll probably only come back I f someone really wants to go here. Plus I've never really been a fan of their wings. read more

The chicken wings still had FEATHERS. They were fried- but I'm sorry I was way too grossed out.

Ah, the good ol' B-Dubs. You really can't go wrong for $0.65 Boneless Wing Thursdays, but it's also the first NFL preseason game and I think things were a little disheveled. But then again, it's been a long loooong offseason... Our servers were awesome and our food was spectacular. Although the "medium" wing sauce seemed a tiny bit hotter than we expected, and the lemon pepper seasoning was a bit salty for my taste. I unfortunately had to ding a star because there was a slight miscommunication about happy hour specials vs. football night specials. Our server explained the food perfectly but I was still a bit confused about the drinks. Nonetheless (which I suppose is more my fault than not), I wound up spending a LOOOT more than I'd originally budgeted as a result. The FK and I had a splendid time, however, and it did get somewhat crowded to welcome NFL football back into our lives, but the service was top notch and everything came out perfectly. Thanks BWW for a great evening! read more

I do enjoy eating at Buffalo Wild Wings, and on days where a good wing can just simply satisfy as you gaze around and see a plethora of sports events going on, that's a good day. What I enjoy is the variety of sauces and spices that they use. The varying degree of heat is also welcomed well. Here are a list of my favorites: Regular Hot wings - nice and tangy with a kick, traditional, and great. Garlic Parmesean - Nice and different, garlicy, creamy, but maybe on the salty side. Mango Habenero - Great mango and habenero taste, sweet, tangy, and has a great kick. Asian Zing - Oh how I love robust Asian flavors; spicy, sweet and full. All that could make this even better is a bowl of hot jasmine rice, and no, they don't have that. Carribean Jerk - Great island flavors; different but nice. Their HOTTEST wing sauce - great spice, great heat, and lingers for the burn. I enjoy their onion rings as well. It's beer battered, and it helps round out the meal. The only reason for 3 stars, maybe 3.5 is because they wings don't come out piping hot, which I LOVE at amazing wing places. They come out fresh, but it doesn't have that..i guess...zing. Go on Tuesday Night for 50 cent wings, and Thursday for 50 cent boneless wings. read more

Horrible! First, they forgot my order. The waitress brought out everyone else's order except for mine, because she didn't write it down. Second, our waters and drinks were empty for the longest time before the waitress even thought to ask about refilling. And this was near the end of the lunch already. Third, she didn't bring our celery. And when asked, she talked back rephrasing what she had said earlier, to make up for her lack of communication. Fourth, the wings are TINY. Yes, they're 55cents. But they are worth more like 25cents. Fifth, the sampler platter was definitely not worth the almost $12 for crappy taco salad, mozz sticks that barely had any cheese in it, OK onion rings, and small boneless wings. Do not go here. read more

I can't help but wonder. Every time I go to a sports bar to watch a Lakers playoff game, they always win. Always... or so it seems. I was here for Game 1 and had a rolicking great time, hooting and hollering, cheering so loud that my vocal cords were getting shredded up. I just watched Lakers lose Game 2. Guess where I watched the game? Yes, at home. I wanted to update this review because I thought everything improved from my first visit. After a few moments of snagging a prime table location and a few bar stools in front of the big screen, a cute and bubbly waitress immediately took my order. Nevermind the fact that she was proudly wearing her green Celtics jersey. She was friendly and had a great smile, so that can be overlooked. The first time around, the boneless buffalo wings just seemed to be a mushy and soggy mess drowned in a puddle of sauce. This time around, I asked for "extra crispy" and they delivered. There was a good crunch from the first bite, and it made all the difference in the world. There was just the right amount of sauce too. With a large crowd for a Laker game, they served beer in a plastic cup instead of tall glasses. They were probably worried for everyone's safety during a crazy celebration, but I just didn't think it was necessary. I still shake my head at the high prices here. As long as everyone is in a good mood when the Lakers win, it's so much easier to bring on more rounds of beer. It all adds up in the end. 3.5 stars. read more

I felt gross after eating here. That may or may not be useful since I tend to feel gross quite often. Lots of flavor options but none of them were that good. The wings were little small baby wings. Onion rings were good. Seems like a great place to watch a game though. Tons and Tons of TVs. read more

I really want to like this place, but why are their wings soo small!?! If you have the word "wing" in your name, you better make them damn good. I went to BWW for lunch and being that it's March it was packed with college basketball enthusiast. It was a little loud but I think that's all in the fun of it. I tried the mango habenero and asian zing since the waitress told us they were the most popular. The mango habenero was pretty good. Good sweetness that was followed by bearable heat, which is deceiving because when you hear habenero you mouth is expecting a lot more, but this was just perfect. The asian zing, on the other hand, was just too asian-y for me. I didn't quite like the flavor. BWW, please buy bigger wings so I don't feel completely jipped. read more

So I went here for a private party. I was very excited about the party. The venue, not so much. Why? I dunno. I was wrong. I didn't have wings, but had some flatbread and other munchies, all of which was shockingly delicious. And the desserts are insane. Kinda pricey, and chains are never a destination for me. But I will absolutely be back. Yum read more

So- my group is kinda retarded, and we nick-name EVERY BAR, and this one is now known as "Bison's" to us, so if I say that- you know why. Before this location opened- we used to make the journey out to the Bisons in Chino Hills to get our fill probably once every month or two (an hour drive...) It wasn't so much for the service or the food, but the atmosphere. I'm sure you've seen the commercials- (awesome btw) but the set up is great considering it's a chain. I'm usually pretty anti-chain, but this place is great. Since this location opened, my group of friends and I make it out here once every week or two. We even had our fantasy draft here... (keep in mind we live in Corona Del Mar- so it still takes 20-30 minutes to get here...) We have now fallen in love with a couple of key people on the staff... Janette is my absolute favorite- (I would marry her!! Ha!!) and Kirby and Enoch are right up there with her. They are all so friendly, remember our drinks, and go out of their way to say hi if we end up in another section. Only a few places make me feel that wanted where I frequent. The only reason I dock a star is for the food. I'm not a lover of the chain restaurants food normally, and it took me a few misses to find what I like here. Now my go-to's are the boneless wings (Asian zing and mango habanero- AMAZINGNESS!!) and the Jamaican jerk chicken sandwich. The breakfast flatbread with the spicy garlic sauce was pretty good for their football morning menu... (way better than the burrito) We live closer to the Bisons in Irvine, but very quickly vetoed that location. The projectors aren't HD (They are here, and supposedly it's the same owners- so I'm not sure why) and the staff wasn't as friendly- so we drive the distance to this location. My other complaint is that sometimes they play angry rock music- supposedly one of the managers and bartenders likes it- but it's horrible and depressing and so not "bar friendly". Really bugs me. Also- we've never had a manager visit our table or say hi- and with the chain restaurants I've worked at- that's a big deal. I would consider us good patrons to this establishment, and with my experiences- managers at chain restaurants go out of their way to get to know the good customers. Good thing that the rest of the staff makes up for it. :) Again- big thank you to Janette, Enoch and Kirby. :) read more

Came here with a large party for lunch and was a bit disappointed. We ordered and got our drinks right away, but waited forever to get our entrees. We had called in advance and were assured that we would not have to experience high wait times. It took about 40 minutes for the food to arrive and we were all starving. On top of that, when our food arrived many items were missing. Multiple people were missing carrot sticks and celery sticks, ranch dressings, had the incorrect sides brought out, and etc. I ordered a grilled chicken salad and I didn't get my garlic sauce dressing poured on top of my salad either or even brought out on the side. Mediocre experience and I wouldn't return for a lunch break. read more

Wings+Beer=Goodness @ Buffalo Wild Wings Check it out you won't be disappointed =) read more

I read several reviews about the bad service here and I really thought the reviewers were exaggerating. Could service REALLY be that bad? Then I went there... and the answer is a resounding yes. It took over 30 minutes for a server to get to us. The most frustrating part was that other customers who came in after us were getting visited 2-3 times by servers. Despite us attempting the server down and asking the bus boy to have the server come see us, we were ignored. We had the bartender send the manager over and it took over an hour. The food is pretty good but to me not worth the "Castaway" like conditions you are left in. One would think it wouldn't be too hard to find enough servers in this economy??? If you are a glutton for punishment, trying to lose weight, like to be ignored or just like to sit in a restaurant keeping a seat warm without food or a drink, this is the place for you! p.s. Don't go there hungry you'll die waiting for a server. read more

Honestly, the food here is not going to change your life. I think everyone understands that. Also, I would not go here unless it was wing day (meaning Monday, Tuesday or Thursday when its like $.60 per wing). BWW has pretty much every flavor you can think of. It also has like 219372184932 TV screens around the whole place so you can watch ANY game you want. YEP I even saw a little bit of WNBA while waiting for my food. I personally have never had bad service here. Maybe its cause I come before 7pm when there's no heavy crowds. That's just me though. I do have ONE HUGE complaint: THE FRIES! It's like almost $5 for a basket of fries but I can finish that thing by myself. BWW, step up and give me a proper amount of fries or I will be forced to walk across the street to The Hat and show you what $5 fries REALLY comprises of..... This place reminds of A LOT of Barney's Beanery minus the crazy menu/decor and the crazy prices. read more

I have been to my fair share of locations but this one tops it all. I came in Friday night with a party of two. We waited 20 minutes for a server to come to our table AND MIND YOU, WE ARE STILL WAITING FOR SERVICE. We had a couple servers walk by and look at our table and just walk away. UNBELIEVABLE. You guys need to train your servers better. read more

Pretty abysmal place. No dogs allowed on the patio but if you want to chain smoke then this is the place for you. I guess dogs are a health and safety hazard but cigarettes are just fine. A canine begging for table scraps is clearly worse than getting cancer. Plenty of places around with far better food and beer but without the smell of cheap life shortening tobacco in the air. Nothing makes a chicken wing more appealing than the less than subtle seasoning of Marlboro. Steer clear people. read more

Came here for a gift giveaway and to watch the game for a hockey event. It was definitely a packed night. Since it was a hockey night event, they put the bball game on the small screen, lame..... The service was good. Anything we needed, we were able to get our waitress' attention. We ordered too many items. The wings were good in general, especially when it's bone less. The pretzel was good with the sauce. The habanero wings were definiely hot. I had to eat the celery sticks with ranch to cool my mouth down. My face was turning super red and I started to somewhat sweat lol. The parmasan wings were okay and I forgot what the rest were called. The chips and salsa were also alright. I'm not really a hockey fan, but it was a good game. Much more fights. read more

This review gosh to JOSH AND THE MANAGER. This location of Buffalo Wild Wings is hands down THE BEST! If I could give them 100+ stars I would! I've been to the locations in Orange, Santa Ana, Huntington Beach,Irvine, Apple Valley , Buena Park and Ontario. None of them compare to how awesome they are here. My experience at this location is always great ( I've only gone during lunch hour 11am-2pm for orders to go) I'm a frequent customer here for 2 reasons .. 1 because I'm obsessed with BWW and 2nd all the employees here have really great customer service! I wish the BWW at the block in Orange,CA would learn from this location cause the location in Orange (the block) is the worst I've ever been too. read more

Maybe the only thing you need to know about this location is that the service is HORRIBLE. We waited for over 10 minutes prior to a server coming by and were just ready to leave when she arrived. Very inept, slow and ill informed. It took her another 10 minutes to find the sauce samples. Place seemed to be run by brain-dead teenagers. As for the food, I'm not a big wing fan but the person I was with said the wings were just "alright". Nothing you couldn't find anywhere else for less money. I had the steak sliders and they were pedestrian, at best. Something like beef jerky in cold, day or two old buns. The only thing worth returning for are the video game keyboards you can use to play trivia games while you're waiting. That helped distract us from what a lousy experience it was. read more

It's very tasty!! Wings are cool! We ordered medium chicken wings, Caesar salad, lemonade and beer. We made refill. We paid nearly 45$. Waiters are so nice and good. But bbq sauce was very spicy, omg!! Honey sauce is sweety and tasty. The best for me is teriyaki!! Yammi!! read more

See all

This place is AWESOME! But it's not because of their wings... A few months ago, Buffalo Wild Wings kept airing their commercials on ESPN/TNT and I think, "great, another East coast chain we'll never see the light of day here... just like Dunkin Donuts...f-ing tease". I was pleasantly surprised to find that one finally opened up nearby. There's quite a lot to love about this place and here's why: 1. They open late till 2am daily! 2. They have the most amazing display of LCD screens available anywhere. Holy crap! There's an impressive array of screens to watch the games...you're literally surrounded by screens so there's no missing out on all the action. Even outside. Seriously, each TV is roughly 2 feet from one another + 2 giant screens -- it's crazy! 3. Not a sports fan? They have interactive game devices you can play against with friends or against people in the restaurant. 4. Large selection of chicken-offerings. 5. 55cent wings Tuesdays + other late night happy hour specials While the wings here are nothing earth-shattering, they are much better than Hooters for sure. I'd say they are on par with Wingstop. Avoid the boneless option though. The sauce selection is pretty good. Traditional buffalo hot was already kicking me. And Wild I was hiccuping like mad as the spiciness burned my mouth off. If you're not a wings person, they also have other traditional fair such as burgers, ribs and flatbreads. Their ultimate nachos appetizers are great with the added bonus of chicken pieces in the dip. Screw going to BJ's and waiting long ass times for a seat; I'll probably end up coming here now to catch all the big games with my friends. The atmosphere is great, food is good, and it's perfect for large gatherings. read more

WOW! I was surprised. I came here in 2012-2013 and they were good. Nothing stood out at this location, but in 2015, they are a stand out, but not in a good way. Heres the break down based on the last 3 visits here: *Service - HORRIBLE. I sat in the bar area, not too busy, and made eye contact with the server, but it takes about 5-10 minutes to have him walk over to get the order. This happened on all 3 visits. It took having to ask the server 2 times for the check on 2 of the 3 times to get the check. The 3rd time the manager comped the dirty beer and moldy carrots. *Dirty glasses. Beer is served in a glass, and the bubbles that are coming from the glass after 5 minutes are from the beer sticking to the food and left over particles from another persons drink. GROSS. 1 time it had a big crack in the bottom of the glass, another had lipstick on the glass. Wonderful job cleaning the glassware. *Food - The fried items are good, nothing special here, but the veggies. It can take anywhere from 4 to 45 minutes to get a "veggie boat." Carrots and celery. Thats it! And 2 of the 3 times I got this, was not good. 1 time had a pre-bitten celery which the manager took away before I could snap a picture, and apologized for that. 1 time the carrots had clear dark mold on them, and were slimy. Not a good sign to be serving rotten food. *Atmosphere - GREAT for watching sports. Lots of TVs and sound which is a great thing to have. Managers are quick to comp items when there are issues, which seemed like they are used to this. Bottomline. Watch a game here, but if you're looking for fresh food, clean glasses, and great service, you're far from it. I'd suggest going to Sammy's or the Spectrum if in the area, but they will be more and doubtful to have sound on the TVs at other locations. read more

Don't come here unless you want to be surrounded by smokers on the patio. We just left here before even ordering our food because a group of chain smokers stood right by the door on the patio smoking away (and not even eating there). I'm pregnant and I and two young kids with me. I complained and management did nothing. They said people are allowed to smoke on the patio. This is the first restaurant I've been to in CA that allows this! My jaw hit the floor! I'm pretty sure the California Health and Safety code does not permit smoking within 20 feet of entrances, and these men were standing appx 8-9 feet from the front entrance (but still on the patio). I am looking into the appropriate venue to report this violation to. I am so disappointed in the response from management. They could care less. Sickening. Never give this establishment business. They allow smokers to poison your kids and unborn fetus. read more

Buffalo Wild Wings is Awesome! This is the definite hangout for me and the boys. When a game is on, we head down here for some wings & brewsky. I've only been to two different locations. This one and another in Rancho Cucamonga. It's always a good time so no complaints, that's why it has my 5 Stars for now. I actually didn't know about this Lake Forest location til I drove by and spotted it while I was running errands. Turns out it was brand new! Probably why I didn't see it before. It had just opened a few days before we ate here so everything was fresh (as in the restaurant). Service was great! Our waitress was real friendly, always checking back frequently if we needed anything. Loving the service. Loving the wings even more. So me and my friend split 24 wings. We chose 4 flavors, 6 wings for each flavor if you can't figure the math (jk). "Caribbean Jerk", "Hot BBQ", "Hot" & "Mango Habanero" were the flavors we got. The "Caribbean Jerk" was good, not great. "Hot BBQ" was different, sweet & tangy. We liked it. "Hot" is just the normal buffalo wing sauce. There's not much to say about that flavor except "It's always a good choice". HAHAHA. Now for that darn "Mango Habanero". I guess me and my friend are weaklings because we had a hard time eating these bad boys. It's not even the hottest flavor! Let me tell you though, the flavor was delicious. The sweetness of mango and the a$$-whoopin of habanero make a great combo. I just want to give you the heads up that it's hot. Order at your own risk. I doubt I'll ever order their hottest flavor if I'm having trouble with their 3rd hottest. Looking for a good time that involves your buddies, beer, wings, sports & games. Then Buffalo Wild Wings is the place to be. read more

I just dont understand this place. of all 100+ televisions in the establishment, they decide to turn OFF the USA Football match we were watching and replace it with a basketball game. I DO NOT recommend this place. the food was horrible and they have zero common courtesy for the customers, only the concern for their own employees. if you are interested in going to watch a sporting event and eating some food, this is not the place read more

To my surprise, seemed like this place attracts such a biker scene. I say biker as in the fast crotch rocket types and not Harleys and leather vests with handlebar mustaches to compliment the gorilla handlebars. Turns out, this happens one Wednesday a month and my visit was at this Wednesday at 930p, so I can't speak for the weekends or peak hours. Very accomodating to big parties. With plenty of big screen TV's, how can you miss a game here. It's no surprise why it attracts a lot of customers. First thing I notice upon entering? The karaoke section lol. The upside, something about the building's construction had the noise level in mind. Even though the loud singing, we were able to hold a conversation well enough without leaning over and have "What'd you say?" conversations. There was a weird karaoke guy that the waiter claims that he frequents this place. And frequent is an understatement. His songs are reminiscent of nails to a chalkboard colliding (yes, colliding) with banshees. I am being very generous, like anti-matter exploding is more like it. I ordered a Buffalo Ranch Chicken wrap and it was decent. Not bad BWWings. Enoch was our waiter, he was very accomodating. His personality was versatile with the atmosphere BWW provided. I was impressed. What impressed me more is that the next morning after writing this review the co/owner had sent me an email expressing that he is yelp-conscious and provides feedback to his patrons. WHich reminded me of adding the proficiency of his employee (Enoch). +1 star! Hooters without the hoot... read more

The atmosphere is ok. It reminds me of wings and things meets trophies. The hosts were ok, but I didn't know people took the whole buddy system seriously. I didn't quite understand why it took two people to seat us. The boneless wings were ok. I tried the Honey BBQ and Parmesan and Garlic. The BBQ ones were good but I mean you can never really go wrong with BBQ. The Parmesan and Garlic were interesting to say the least. The texture was more of an Alfredo where the taste was Parmesan with a garlic after taste. It wasn't bad just not the best. Last time I checked gratuity was not included in the check for groups smaller then 8 so I would have loved it if my WAITRESS would have brought my change back. Granted it was only and a dollar and some change but I think I reserve the right to tip or not. And having not that great of service she would have been lucky to get anything in the first place, seeing how the majority of my stay she was absent it might have been better for me to order my food and have the restaurant be self served. Probably won't be coming back. read more

Love the service! My friend is a huge Braves fan and our waitress was able to hook it up and get the game for us. Thank you for putting on the Warriors and Braves game on for us! Food and drinks were great as always. read more
