GO OFF!!! Buffalo Wild Wings is the best resturant in Salinas! Right next to IHOP and Red Lobster. Buffalo Wild Wings employees are super kind!! I absolutely love their French Fries! BWW, keep doing what you're doing because it's working! read more

Buffalo Wild Wings is managed poorly. Many patrons have to wait 20 minutes to get seated when there is available seating. The least they can do is have customers take a seat to order drinks as they wait for their food. No wonder I had not visited this place for a very long time. read more

Well it's been about a year since I been to a BWW holy crap they are expensive! $23 bucks for a MED wing selection.. we both had planned on wings but not at that price. So since it was happy hour we got 6 tenders, quesadillas and black n blue burger. All for less than a medium wing box. Wasn't a huge fan of the burger there was way more lettuce and bun than the burger... felt like the little old lady from the Wendy's commercial.. "wheres the beef" Pleasant atmosphere.. clean in the lobby.. and the waitress was very nice. read more

This is the worst place ever. Bathrooms were trashed. Smelled like a Mexican bar. Horrible. read more

Wings are good, Wingstop is better. Went last Sunday, I felt like I was being kicked out. Got there at 9pm we where told they are closing the bar at 9:15, we're sitting in the patio, more ppl showed up they pushed it to 9:30 . I get it it's crazy with the covid situation but still we felt pushed out. When I wanted to order some wings "the specials" they said that's take out only. The guy couldn't even take my order for take out he said I had to go to the front and place the order. Hours of operation are not accurate online or on the website, call before showing up. Employees just want to go home in slow days, so they could careless about customer service. Bad hours, sticky tables, bad service. read more

Good food. Love the wings. They hooked it up with the sauces. But never got my veggie side.

Full restaurant is open been waiting for 15 min to be seated so I decided to go sit in the bar area the only thing is that the bar is only the bar top... host comes up to me mad telling me I can't sit there only the bar if I want to be self seated once again I'm looking at an empty restaurant every table is open 2/14/2020 writing this from the bar read more

Bathrooms smelled like an abandoned gas station restroom. Told the manager and had to tell him again a half an hour later as he said he sent someone to clean it and never inspected it. I wonder how the food is being handled. Worst way to handle it as a manager. Hope I don't get ecoli. read more

Ordered through dash anD never had a problem. Door dash arrives and once we sit down to eat.::: missing our fries and celery:/carrots and 3 ranch dips ...... really BWW?? Hire competent employees please!! I guess someone will pocket the money I paid for fries! read more

14 empty tables. Sunday during football season and can't get seated. This place is a joke. BWW management, you losing thousands of dollars in revenue and you've lost me as a customer. Not that you care, as evidenced by the continued lack of service. read more

Inefficient service, poor communication, extremely slow and meh food. Why did I even bother? It's been years since I have eaten here and against my better judgement we stopped here on the way home. I ordered 1wing combo on a Sun after 2:00pm. I ordered in but all the outside tables were taken. After 15 minutes, I asked them just to wrap it to go. 15 more minutes later 3 parties left and the take out order finally arrived. So I just sat down at a cleared, empty table out of 3 available tables. This prompted the manager to come out and tell me and my husband that we weren't welcome. 30 minutes for 10 wings! and instead of simply letting things be, the manager feels compelled to confront us, for frankly crappy food. Never going to Wild Wings again. read more

I appreciate someone waiting out and guiding people inside one at a time. Super fast too.

So they don't do reservations, it's walk in. Was told wait time for 2 would be 10-15 minutes. After 20 minutes waiting, a family of 4 was seated prior to us that literally had just walked in and immediately after a set of two was seated. Needless to say we weren't going to wait any longer, we walked and ended up eating someone where else and still never received our text letting us know our table was ready! Lmao so god knows when we would have been seated. Probably the worst experience I've had there read more

The service is really slow, the wait was 40 minutes we ended leaving the place, if you are hungry really don't come

Service: 5 stars Food: 4.5 stars We are on our way to Santa Barbara and decided to stop here for lunch. We were craving BDubs but was weary of the recent negative reviews. However, we had a good experience. We walked in around 11:45A on a Wed, there were a few folks already-the lunch crowd hadn't hit yet. We were greeted and seated immediately. Our server, Beatrice, approached us within a few minutes to greet us and take our drink order. She returned a few minutes later to take our order. Two Lunch Specials of 10 wings and a side of Buffalo chips...not bad for $11 each and they came in 12 minutes. We also ordered a side garden salad (meh, but I needed some greenery) and naked chicken tenders (that came with mandarin oranges) for my 13 mo. That too came within ten minutes of ordering. The food was as expected - hot, flavorful, and timely. The eating area and bathrooms were clean. There's a changing table in both men and women's bathrooms. read more

You can't make reservations till you get there, it graduation night 5/25/22. It was extremely busy, they were shortstaffed. Kudos to the manager to the staff for doing the best to help everybody get situated and seated as soon as they could. I really appreciate the service they gave me and we waited an hour watching them first hand trying to get people taken care of. Thank you plus our food was good! read more

Horrible service. In fact, there was zero service. I came in and sat at the bar at about 1pm, and received no service, so I left after about 15min. The workers were more concerned with bussing tables, than serving new customers. There were 4 other people at the bar with no service as well. It's common sense to attend to present customers first and bus tables after. Ridiculous! read more

I called in an order here and received great service while inside. Esmeralda is who helped me and she was very friendly. However, my order was wrong. I didn't realize until I was long gone, so I couldn't go back. I placed an order on the phone for a buffalo chicken salad with no bleu cheese and a garden salad. I got a Caesar salad and a garden salad. It was sooo disappointing. Both meals were delicious, but it wasn't what I ordered or wanted. read more

So 2nd time in a week. Waited 30 mins to order than an additional 25 for a large platter of wing, fries, salad , & kids corndog meal. Food was barely warm & it's honestly not busy. See at least 8 people on the floor & apparently only 2 are servers. I mean seriously waiting 15 mins for premade chocolate milk that needed to come from the bar??? Last time I come here. read more

I used to love coming to this BWW but they have been having a lot of issues lately. They have messed up my order on multiple occasions. I attempted to speak with a manager once and all I got was attitude. I once placed an order through the app and immediately called into the restaurant to make a change to the order but was told the order couldn't be changed because it was already made. I explained to the employee that I had just placed the order and it was impossible for it to have already been done. Luckily another employee assisted me and made the change I requested. Seems like they have a lot of new employees that don't care too much about customer service. I love their wings once they finally get my order right. It shouldn't be this difficult to make our orders right. read more

First time to Buffalo Wild Wings in Salinas and I did not have a good experience. As we walked in the hostess with the pink hair said "F me" I then told her we were a party of eight. She asked us to hold on and walked away when she came back she said they were short staff in the kitchen and we were going to have a long wait for service and food and they still had two hours till closing. I'll never go there again! read more

Long wait times when there are "visibly" many tables open. Are either short staffed or don't care to take in many at a time. Service once seated is bad. Will sit on an empty cup of water for a while before you have to cal a waiter over to get you a refill. The food takes just as long to get and when you do, the wings (boneless) are cold. Friends only come for the football and sports. Wouldn't come here myself. read more

Bad service really bad service...the waiters are very lazy to get you anything, once it's almost time for closing as in a whole hour and a half early they still can't seat anyone anymore. Won't be going here again that's forsure. read more

Love the cauliflower wings and their drinks are great. Kids had a great time.

My 16 year old niece and I went here for dinner last Saturday night. My niece ordered an Izzies sparkling fruit drink. The waitress brought her a beer! There are huge signs that say "We ID" in the restaurant and my 16 your old niece does not look 21 at all. The waitress did not apologize and just said she didn't hear her correctly. Needless to say, I was very disappointed that someone under 21 could so easily get served alcoholic. read more

We were in Salinas for a DMV test and eat here for lunch. The wings were very good but the service was even better. read more

I asked for a burger cooked medium and the lady came back with a dried out patty and said all the burgers are made well done

The manger Saul is HORRIBLE. I came here with my friends & he was rushing me out the door didn't even let me finish my wings. He was so rude to my friend & I. I was appalled at how bad his customer service was. Never coming here again. read more

It's really good I know they only serve frozen bone in wings but they're still good as long as they're hot they just need to have a cleaner restroom it sucks & smells really bad other then that it was greatt read more

Shout out to Elizabeth aka Liz. Badass waitress. She's funny and makes you feel comfortable as a customer. Ask for her if you ever come here for a drink and stuff. read more

I tend to come here once in a while, and never has the service been this bad. I went in today and we ordered appetizers as well as wings. Our appetizer didn't get served until the rest of the food was done. ALL the wings were cold by the time they were brought out. The wings had a lot of nerves as well. The girl with curly hair was stuck up. Literally didn't acknowledge me when ordering, just took the orders of the others. Very disappointing service. read more

First off, I will never cast a shadow in this or any other BWW....EVER! Lengthy review, full of content. Please take the time to read it. Went in around 8pm on Sunday evening, wait time wasn't bad for a high top table ( for 2 ), maybe 10 minutes. That's where my positive review ends. 1st complaint. Seating! You know that one seat in a restaurant where nobody ever sits, we sat there. Right next to the kitchen door and a managers laptop and wireless mouse at the table next to us. Is there not a back office for the manager to work on the laptop? Maybe there's not a tv in that office and they really like sports. Who knows?!? One thing I do know, every table is money. If you have a laptop sitting on a table in the dining area, you're losing money!! Not my company, so who cares. 2nd complaint. We were given menus that were WET. I asked the General Manager about this, he said we should of never been issued those. He explained that the liquid wasn't water, but chemicals they use to clean it. He didn't mention if it was soap, Ajax or something more dangerous. Do I need to contact poison control?!? 3rd complaint. Ordering! I asked the waitress ( forgot her name, since she didn't mention it before taking my order ) about one of the wing combos. She explained it thoroughly, but that's where it ended. The combo comes with a whole bunch of stuff and coleslaw. I'm not a coleslaw fan, so I asked if I can swap it for a different side. Ready for her answer.....she said "NO! But I can just not bring it out to you." I was shocked, so I had to verify what she said. She was going to charge me the regular price for the meal, then just not bring the coleslaw out. No discount, no swapping, just not getting coleslaw. Maybe she likes the coleslaw and wanted it for herself or she had some friends there who wanted free coleslaw. I have no idea what she was thinking or trying to do. That was the last straw for me. After calling the manager over to get my check for 1 iced tea and 1 soda ( which the manager comped), she offered to give me coupons for my next visit. Really....with service like this, I wouldn't come back if you paid me too. If Mr. BWW reads these reviews, please make some serious changes to your staff at the Salinas location. Thanks! #KCCO read more

My first trip to the BWW in Salinas. I've been to sBWW's across the Cali and in other states. This was not a good experience. Place was crowded and a little noisy. A waitress came by to see if we wanted to sample any sauces so we gave her six to taste. We waited to place our order because we wanted to try the sample sauces first. The girl never came back. We would see her walking all over the restaurant but she never returned. So we went ahead and ordered. When the order arrived, my order was wrong. So they said, oh we grabbed the wrong order. So they brought me a new one. My friend ordered mild wings and she swears that they had to be wrong because they were extra spicey. We asked for some water and it took our water almost 10 minutes and a second request. Staff obviously needs more training. read more

Horrible service!! There was hardly any tables when we stopped to eat, however the server had no enthusiasm, didn't seem happy to have guests at all, several tables around us were dirty (for a while!) and employees were just standing around. When we left we passed our server, three other servers and more than 5 people behind the hostess stand, and only 1 person said have a good day (and didn't even smile when she said it, or seem genuine). It was my first time ever going to a Buffalo Wild Wings and I thought it would be way better than this since it's a growing chain. Shame on the General Manager for not being on their staff and not training their staff on customer service. You location should not have dirty tables, and should at least have employees that work! Will never return! read more

Our first time at BWW today, and it was memorable to say the least. After our party was seated on the patio, we realized that there were no sun shades to block the after noon sun, so be sure and bring your sunblock. As I hungrily dug into my medium lemon pepper wings, I was surprised to find a wing with chicken feathers still attached. I'm talking lots of fried feathers! Yummmy, fried lemon pepper chicken feathers!!! Okay, not such a fun visual, so I'll refrain from posting the picture. We notified the wait staff and the manager quickly responded. The manager, Alfonso was very apologetic and adjusted the bill on our entrees by 25%. Thanks Alfonso, but we'll stick to Wing Stop for now. read more

i have only been to this restaurant once, and it was not a bad experience. the restaurant is pretty cold, but I should've just worn a sweater. The waitress got our drinks quickly and got our order in a good amount of time. I never realized how many TVs there was there! The food came out in a reasonable amount of time and was great. Was not a fan of some of the wings but that's just preference. Nothing was bad about the experience but nothing was super great. I think my only problem with the restaurant was some staff, not really seeming to want to do their job. I don't know their stories or anything but it just wasn't the greatest seeing them stand around or sit around. Also, they did not really have anyone in the front to greet people or cash out, and in fact their card reader was broken but somehow they still managed to use my card. Not sure about that all in all, an average place with a large variety of wings. read more

First time here at the Salinas location. Watched the warriors game. Waitress was on it and made us feel welcomed. Had an awesome time here with my fiancée! Love this big loud sports bar and its open till 2pm! Will come again for sure for more drinks and games! read more

It's good not great sometimes it's too pack and there's always police around because of fights and drunks it's a guy type of place and super loud and the waiting sometimes takes a while and other than that I mean it's ok read more

Been here three times since it opened.. Place is small compared to the one at Seaside. But what do you expect, it was the old Blockbuster Video Store.. (RIP lol) But yeah, they should've at least bought the other free space, which was used to be Cigarrettes Cheaper. But anyways, the place is packed, feel pretty crammed in there. The one at Seaside is has actually a separation between the dine in and the bar w/ stools. This one does not. It just feels like everything was just placed. Most of the employees again are teenagers. Especially the host desk. Sometimes i'm not sure if they actually know what they're doing. The first time I was here, they said that they are full and the wait will be about an hour. Looked around and there were two tables empty and me and my party was the only ones in line. So i'm not sure if those tables are reserved. The first two times I was here, there were mistakes on the order. I know that they are busy, but they still need to be at least precised on which table or order it's going to. The staff is pretty friendly, and I know that they are trying to put out great service. I still think they need some improvement. But opening month on these kinds of chains, I don't really expect anything. Food and drinks are good. Same as it is at Seaside. Overall, I think this will be a great place to hang out after work, hang out with friends for dinner and drink. Happy hour that I know is about 9pm since they open til 2am. I think that's a great idea. Tv's are everywhere and game and fight nights are on. Would recommend this to anyone who wants to just hang out with friends and co workers over dinner and drinks. Great vibe, but Service could be better. read more

Not even worth giving 1 star... walked in at 11:15pm with a party of 3. Waited for 4min for someone to acknowledge us. The girl was about to seat us. But then one of her coworkers, a Male server, tells her not to serve us. She then tells us last call was at 11:30. Umm.. okay sweetie, its 11:19? So then he shrugs his shoulders and shakes his head. She said "ooh I'm sorry I meant we stop serving at 11:15." Well, we had been standing there for 4min waiting to get seated and now you want to refuse service to us?!?!?! Get outta here. Worst customer service EVER!!! RUDEST EMPLOYEES EVER. You're in a profession built on customer service Get your $hit together. Never coming back!! Management - hire new people and train them how to be successful in your industry. You should be ashamed of the people who are representing your establishment read more
