Just discovered this wing restaurant, had never heard of it before and am glad I didn't because we would have been discouraged from walking in. Most of the reviews we read were pretty negative and had I read them before we stopped in we would not have! I think if you going to dine there the biggest complaints are probably all true. They are understaffed in the kitchen and dining room (there is a sign on the door that says they're hiring) the wait for help and food is WAY TOO LONG. That said, the two employees we eventually spoke with were extremely nice and helpful and knew their menu. The food was very well made and exceptionally tasty. The portions generous and the price good. So we're hoping that in the future our called ahead "pick up" service will overcome the most common complaint. Although the person who took our order (she has worked for them for 14 years...that says good thing about the company) was extremely helpful, however it took 45+ minutes to get our two person, not a super large takeout order. The interior rooms are very large, there were two men at the bar (in another room) and only one table with 4 diners in the main room. There were a least 20 tables and booths that I could see in the room I was in....so the dining rooms were very empty yet it was lunch time. Initially there was no one at the front desk to greet us, I had to walk into the dining area and gently call out and someone came out of the kitchen (a buzzer on the front desk going into the kitchen would help them!). After she helpfully took our order she went into the kitchen and we never saw her again. We waited...and waited. Much later the manager happened to come out. He was very nice and explained that when you ask for "extra crispy" it takes longer...but 40 minutes? And I had only asked for extra crispy fries! He did go in the kitchen, let me know they were "working on it" (still?) and it was almost ready. At that point two other orders were brought out by the woman who had greeted us. And then our order came out about 5 more minutes later. BTW, our order was for only two people...not a big order. It looks like they do a big take out place. It's no wonder with all that loud music and so many tv sets running it's really not enjoyable being inside the restaurant. It's a marketed for teens OR folks who want to watch tv and eat (why go out)? The place is very clean. It was 12:30 on a week day and we were surprised that barely anyone was there even tho the parking lot for all the other stores and restaurants was filled with cars. The food is better than the average wing place with lots and lots of variety and well thought out optionsl The menu is large with offerings other than wings. Even the fries tasted like real potatoes!! Thinly cut, fresh and not overdone. Our wings where mixed as we requested (with bones or without bones, all kinds of marinades. The wings they advised us about being hot...were, but not so hot you cuoldnt eat them! Take their advise tho! The sauces were very well made and the chicken well cooked. Very tasty chicken (not "fowl" as we suspect more and more being sold as chicken even in good supermarkets) and wings were a good size, small and meaty but not tiny. And it came with a large drink. No complaints at all about the food...or the employees...just the incredible amount of time it took. So we shall try to call in an order and pick it up. If we have another very long wait then we will ;ile;y not go back. And we will try to go and pick up a while before dinner time, not during rush hour or weekends! I think that will give them a fair shake! They definitely need help but if you're looking for more than "decent" wings...this is the place! We will NEVER eat there, the ruckus would be torture (and maybe that's a decision a lot of would-be customers have made and why it was so empty...does this really work for them? The thing I wonder is, if you're food is good enough (and for what is is it's way better prepared than most) why ruin your sit down business making it so chaotic with noise?). And yes, we're "older" but love all kinds of music. We're just not deaf. Surely people don't need a tv everywhere their heads turn! It distracts from the pleasure of the eating. I guess I just don't "get "sports bars". If your food is this great don't you want to appeal to a less specific diner as well instead of losing them a clients? All that said we will come back to order again. Hope it not "just once more". We shall add 10 minutes onto whatever time they tell us it will be ready for pick up tho. I think that's as fair as we can be. Yes, I recommend the food! It was delicious. read more

1 hour for wings and fries. That's all I gotta say. Just absolute incompetence all around. read more

Why did I ever think to try BWW again? Prior to this visit we hadn't been here for a few years because service was always lacking. I thought maybe this new location would be different. We stood up front for 5 minutes waiting to be seated. Once we did get seated it was like we were forgotten. Waitress did come over for 10 mins. Between us sitting down and getting our drinks it was 30 mins. The floor wasn't even busy, we walked in at 2:30 pm. Needless to say it was another 30 mins to get a burger and 6 wings. The food was ok at best. Do yourself a favor and go to further down Bridgeport Ave for anything else. At least the Strawberry lemonade was good ! read more

My son and I came here to spend time together and have dinner. I have been wanting to come for sometime now since it's a new location in are area. We ordered the House Sampler which consisted of Onion Rings, Mozzarella Sticks, Nacho's with Chicken, and the original Chicken Wings. We ordered the Asian Zing Chicken Wings for are House Sampler and we also ordered the Orange Chicken Wings. We alway get the Asian Zing flavor so we decided to try the Orange Chicken flavor wings. The Orange Wings were okay. I wouldn't order them again. It was not my favorite flavor. I like Asian Zing Chicken Wings and I think we will stick with that. The House Sampler was pretty good and when my kids and I come to Buffalo Wild Wings we usually get the House Sampler as it is enough for us to share. The House Sampler looked bigger at this location which I appreciated. The food was good and my son and I were pretty full after are meal. Customer service was spot on. The waiter was very friendly and he checked on us a couple of times. I would definitely be back. read more

I had the late night munchies (like ready to eat the couch cushion hungry)& needed a fix ASAP! I discovered Buffalo Wild Wings is open until midnight. Bless them!! We (party of four sat down) pulled up like the Avengers on a mission. We were greeted right away by Sara(our server). She was so sweet I almost got a cavity! I ordered boneless bbq boneless wings w/ fries. Yeah I'm basic! I know, I know! Our food took a bit to come out, probably b/c it was late & the kitchen staff were running on Red Bull & pure willpower. While waiting, I got to sample mozzarella sticks that were so cheesy & gooey I considered proposing to one! When my chicken arrived they were fresh,flavorful & smothered in that sweet & tangy bbq sauce that made me feel emotionally supported.The fries were hot & crispy but not too crispy(like they understood the assignment). I drowned them in ketchup like a saucy little villain & had 0 regrets! No dessert for me(it was late & my stomach filed a cease & desist)! The vibe inside was chill! Music was playing! The place was clean! The ac was set to refreshing but not frostbite temperature. Before I left I ordered potato wedges & a triple bacon burger to go for my bf. I got to sample that as well(b/c I'm greedy like Scrooge). The bacon was so crispy I thought I heard it snap in high definition!The meat was so juicy (like bite into it & duck before you get hit level juicy).Those potato wedges! Pure magic! Only complaint is the portion was small for the value. Overall experience A1 like my steak sauce! Main complaint was how long the food took to come out! You would have thought maybe my boneless wings were out back doing yoga or something. Will I be back? Yes w/ hunger,hope,& an empty stomach ready to down food like I was a vacuum! read more

Honestly really disappointing experience at Buffalo Wild Wings tonight. They're running the $10 all-you-can-eat apps deal, but it took over 40 minutes just to get appetizers out -- and the place was practically empty. Same issue with drinks: we ordered and nothing came out for a long time. Our menus were never taken, we could barely find our waiter, and overall it felt like nobody was paying attention to the tables. The whole experience was slow, disorganized, and frustrating, especially considering how dead it was inside. I've heard similar complaints from other people before, and after experiencing it myself, I get it. Pretty shocking level of service for a chain restaurant. read more

Had a family lunch here on a Saturday. the restaurant is clean and bright The service was excellent and very friendly. We order a few boneless wings specials. The wings and fries were good. Only have two negatives for this meal. We ordered fried pickles that were forgotten (our server ensure they weren't on the bill). And it seemed like our waitress was stretched a little thin, it would've been nice to get more frequent visits and refills on drinks. read more

Went last night to watch the March Madness UConn game and it was well worth it. TV's everywhere. Food was to our liking and affordable. Our waiter "Bree" was very accommodating. No complaints read more

Been to this BWW twice so far , the environment in my opinion is ghetto they are attracting the wrong crowd which is similar to why aroogas shut down, I don't see it staying open long read more

Need to iron out the grand opening wrinkles.... You might as well order weeks in advance because it takes forever to get food or drink. Service: Waiter was very very friendly and understanding. But the kitchen was super backed up. I don't understand why a large chain like BWW wouldn't over staff a place on opening weekend. We waiting over an hour for our food and 20 mins between beer orders. There were like 5 "managers" standing around doing nothing, just drinking Dunkin. Wtf. Oh, and there was a bartender with long gross nails, super nasty and I think unhygienic. Food: Took forever. Kitchen must be severely understaffed while the management is overstaffed. Food tasted fine for BWW. Nothing special once it came out. Ambiance: Plenty of TVs for games. It's fresh and new. read more

Hubby and I stopped in today. Since it's Football Sunday we expected to wait. We were seated immediately and surprised there weren't more patrons. We looked over the menu. Decided on drinks, appetizers and meals, no one came to greet us. As we looked around wondering who our busy server was we noticed (1 bartender just standing there staring off into space, 2 servers near their kiosk laughing up a storm hanging out, 1 server walked by us to clean a table next to us. 2 more servers cleaning another table together) and no-one even looked our way or bothered to greet us. My husband asked the gentleman sitting at the next table with his empty dishes and cash on the table waiting to check out, how long did he have to wait for service and he said he sat there for over 20mins before someone greeted him. That was when we decided our 20mins was up and went down the street to outback! Watched the game had a great server and spent less money than we would've at Buffalo Wild Wings. read more

Just adding to my review. I ended up waiting for an hour and a half to pick up my 6 pm order. Left at 7:30 with no food and missed the first half of the Super Bowl. They shouldn't take orders they know they can't fill. Very disappointed. Went to casa nova and got grinders for everyone in 10 minutes read more

This place is horrible. 4 and a half hours for a takeout order to finally be ready. This place should be condemned. Open 14 months now and they still can't get it together. I'd give this place negative stars and demerits if I could. Do not go here. read more

My family and I showed up on a Saturday evening at 7pm, got seated within 10 which was cool. Then our waitress comes over and explains to us that %80 of the menu they are out of. No salads, no toppings or anything that goes into a salad, not even for toppings on a burger. No Onion rings or fries...Wtf!!! Only thing they had for a side were cheese curds. I asked if they had chicken for hahas and they were very low on that. How is a big business like this operating on partial staff and no supplies. Corporate needs to get involved and fire the managers. I don't recommend coming to this Bdubs and it's a shame cuz it seemed like it was a nice place to eat. read more

My wife and I ate there last Saturday, 9/13 and had a Spicy Chicken sandwich and the Spicy Nashville sandwich on challah buns. We enjoyed them very much. So much so when we were out earlier today 9/17 we ordered the same sandwiches for takeout. We were GREATLY disappointed. Both sandwiches were on smaller hamburger rolls, the Spicy Chicken only came with cheese and three pickles that looked like someone stepped on them, the Spicy Nashville includes cole-slaw (got that in a small cup on Saturday) that was put on the bottom of the bun which totally trashed the sandwich. You guys need some serious quality control over there. read more

went there this past saturday arrived at 7pm took 10 mins for wait staff to approach us ordered two beers and a non alcoholic beverage. it took 15-20 minutes to get the drinks at same time we ordered appetizers 50 minutes later food never arrived we confronted waitress she said they are backed up and nachos are frying... never again every time we go here it's terrible service. we demanded the check and to cancel the food...i would give zero stars if i could.... this bww will be out of business within a year at this rate!! ended up at outback down the road! read more

We went last night. 4 of us. The service was just horrible!! Couldn't find our waitress. Waited and waited for our order. Just a bad experience read more

The food was really good. I ordered the all american burger with fries. The fries were crispy and thin cut. The bartender quickly put the Giants game on with sound. This place deserves a much higher overall review than 2.0 imo. read more

Decided to order some wings for lunch (with extras to bring home) for delivery and decided to order through their website. The order was placed, tips and fees were included, for over $29. Then a weird message popped up stating my order couldn't be place at this time. My senses had me checking my bank account and sure enough, the order amount was deducted from my account. I quickly called the location to confirm and was told by staff that despite my money being taken, they did not see my order on their end, so I would 'just have to wait' to get my money refunded. I'm out $30 and still no lunch. Stellar, people, real stellar. read more

My waiter was great, but the food was the opposite. My burger was more hairy than me, and my dad's cheesesteak looked like a shriveled up toenail that was soaked in coffee for three weeks. Our wait time was also terrible. We got there at around 6:40, and left at around 8:30, And me and my dad didn't even eat the food. If I could give 0 stars I would. And my moms Pepsi cup was cracked read more

Went to check it out this past Saturday for future Sunday football outings. Got there at noon and was empty. Server was happy to put a game we were interested in on the TV for us. And THAT was the high point of our experience. Beer was served flat, kitchen forgot the bread I ordered for my cheeseburger INSTEAD of a roll, hamburger patties were so thin and overcooked I couldn't eat them and tater tots were cold. Needless to say that if I'm spending that kinda money on lunch and it's that bad, I won't be coming back. read more

Got takeout twice, was on time with friendly staff. Foods good, app has some good deals. Haven't sat down at this location yet to experience service though read more

They have recently opened however this is a chain and how can they not have their act together? This was one of the worst dining experiences I've had in a while. Took 45 minutes just to get our drinks (after I reminded our waitress to go get them) then our order was wrong and the wings were cold. Our waitress greeted us by saying "just so you know it will probably take an hour to get your food because we have a lot of takeout". It was half full or less in the restaurant and we had absolutely terrible service! read more

We waited 25 minutes for a table. But the annoying part was that there were about 30 open tables. The hostess told us they couldn't seat anyone because they were "switching shifts." Also agree with everyone else's comments on all the staff just standing around, very strange. The only pro was our waiter was very nice. Hope they get it together because we were so excited to have a Buffalo Wild Wings close! read more

BLUF: It is going to take some time to get this up to speed. I'm an Air Force Acquisition Officer and when procuring anything we are taught to measure on Cost, Schedule and Performance. You are usually lucky to get 2. Well this B-Dub failed on all 3. I ordered take out - 10 Bonelsss, 10 Classic, fries, cheese curds and Garlic Pretzel knots. Strike 1, Cost: I am a Blazin' Rewards Member and went to get the reward for B1G1 at 1/2. The reward never went through. Strike 2, Schedule: the website said in 6 mins, food will be ready. I got there to see a waiting room full of people waiting for take out. Then the App updated to 20 mins after ordering it will be ready. I got my food almost 50 mins after ordering. Whilst I was waiting, I saw the waiting list for dine-in go to 2 pages yet the restaurant was maybe 1/2 full. Strike 3, Performance: I finally get the food and the wings were overcooked and dry, like they were done 44 minutes ago! Also, they were missing the Blue Cheese and Carrots. However, the curds and garlic knots were very good, making for the 2 star review. Continuing with the baseball references: Foul: At least 6 employees at any one time were standing around, staring into space. This includes the two managers. The front of the house manager didn't apologize once to anyone and didn't even try to see what could be done. Maybe offering a free soda or a $5.00 off next visit card or even just a plain "I'm sorry" would have gone a long way. I'll give it another shot, but most likely will wait until after Spring Training when hopefully, they get their crap together. read more

ordered take out. was given an incorrect order. shorted boneless wings. called and told to return order only to be given only the missing wings. by then all the food was cold. mistakes happen but make it right. should have been given whole new order. horrible service. read more

I Was really looking forward to trying this new location but unfortunately we were unable to even get seated. I counted over ten open tables and at one point there were more people waiting in the lobby than people actually seated in the restaurant. After one hour we called it quits. Overall this was a terrible experience and I will not be going back anytime soon. read more

Three strikes and your out. Terrible service from the top down. Unable to admit to their mistakes and rectify it appropriately. They produce a poor product and do not make it easy to be a consumer. Go elsewhere read more

I can't believe how slow they are. Pickup order was not ready for an HOUR past the time they gave. The food is not that good to have to wait so long. I can't believe a chain that's been around this long can't figure out how to open a new location. It's really terrible. No wonder you can't order for delivery. No Uber eats or grubhub driver will wait for the order. read more
