    Traditional Wings (10), Small French Fries
    Daniel L.

    Kind service from the owner, Tim. Juicy wings and crispy fries but under seasoned chicken and fries, even for someone who likes food in general to be less salty. Initially ordered a 10 piece traditional wings (half original hot and half pineapple jalapeño) with a side of fries to go ($20-21, bit pricey). No celery or carrot sticks available On pickup, was informed by the owner Tim that an employee had burnt the wings so they would take another 15-20 minutes. Tim did offer to make up the error with a shake or a Nemo cake- I took a carrot cake for later. Traditional Wings + wings were juicy, drumsticks inside meat was juicy (outside meat less so) + original hot = Buffalo was a standard good flavor - not much flavor of the chicken - pineapple jalapeño had a taste of sweetness but neither pineapple nor jalapeño. Tim was open for feedback and commented that most people didn't make these comments Fries + crispy - bland flavor- no seasoning/salt and needed to dip with the special sauce (like a chipotle ranch) but still was low in flavor

    We decided to go to the Buffalo Spot tonight because my kid wanted chicken and I've wanted to try it for a couple months. First impression upon entering is that it's very clean and nicely decorated. The menu is pretty basic: boneless, tenders or original wings and then you pick the sauce flavor. There's a pretty long list of flavor choices. I ordered boneless wings and my daughter got original wings. We also ordered onion rings and ordered our food to go. First of all, the food is legitimately good. The boneless wings are good sized pieces of chicken, tender on the inside and crispy on the outside. My daughter said her original wings were "pure happiness." The onion rings were perfect. I was shocked that our food was still hot when we got home 10 minutes later. A couple things that prevented me from leaving 5 stars was that the customer service was slightly lacking. The young woman who took our order seemed to really hate life. It also took quite a while to receive our food after ordering. I think they get a lot of online orders, because while we waited three different delivery drivers came in to pick up orders. I'm guessing it took a long time to receive our food because the online orders were being fulfilled first. Lastly, while the place is decorated very nicely, it was SUPER empty. We were the only people in there for the majority of the time we waited. All in all, I would definitely visit The Buffalo Spot again. The food was good and while the price is a little steep, I appreciated how it seemed to be freshly cooked and still hot when we got home. It was worth the wait!

    Small order but ok

    I've got to admit I've been wanting to try this place but I also realize I don't like Buffalo chicken. Did not finish it and didn't really enjoy it. Now, I'll admit it could just be me and I was alone, but I don't think for the price or flavor I would head back.

    A pretty standard spot for buffalo fries. The owner took our order and he was really friendly, giving us recommendations on what to order. As we were waiting for our food, he brought out some fries topped with seasonings so that we could try. My favorite was the sriracha. I'll definitely be looking forward to adding it onto my order next time. As far as the food goes, the onion rings and garlic parmesan fries were pretty good. I wasn't a fan of the mango habanero as it was too sweet for my liking. I'm eager to come back and try other things on the menu!

    Good Wings Buffalo spot has a casual vibe. The restaurant is spacious, colorful, clean and the menu is posted above the register. Diner's order at the counter,;take a seat, and wait for theMEAL. THe menu at Buffalo spot is straightforward you can choose either traditional or boneless wings, select how many you want, choice a flavor, simple as that. Buffalo spot also offers salads, fries, and chicken sandwiches. On the recommendation of a co-worker I ordered the garlic parmesan wings. The wings wetevmeaty, tender, crunchy and coated with a flavorful seasoning. However, a few of the wings seem to be overcooked. The wings are served with a choice of homemade ranch or blue cheese dressing and the ranch dressing is pretty good. if you're looking for wings give this place a try

    Well...another understaffed restaurant, but the food still came out rather quickly. The fries were actually 75% crispy and the pineapple jalapeño chicken was hot. The area where things fell short was the actual flavor. I did not get any heat, nor did I get any sweet flavor. I think you need to pay extra for dressing, but I wasn't offered any

    Not bad of a wing spot in the neighborhood. I'll start with the good stuffs... Original hot was on point. Juicy chicken with crispy skin and hot sauce. Fries were nicely crisped and soft inside but lacking a bit of seasoning. Goes well with their 'special sauce' aka chipotle ranch. Pineapple jalapeño sauce was not good for us. I can hardly taste anything out of it except canned pineapple flavors and some sweetness from white sugar. I was excited to try this while imagining it made from fresh pineapple blended with jalapeno and seasonings... but.. how disappointing. Tim the owner is VERY kind. He personally serves people beverages, food, and chat with customers. He listened to our feedback on the pineapple jalapeño sauce and appreciated the feedback. Food was 3 star. Service was 5 star hence the avg of 4

    I just wasn't a fan. I did order through a third party app and maybe if I would have ordered and ate in store it would have been better but I review based on what I get. My food was almost stale, not sure if they made it super early and it sat at room temperature for awhile or what, but I would not eat it again. The sauce they put on top is completely flavorless, I even tried it by itself to double check. Had high hopes and was disappointed.

    Buffalo fries. Tiny chicken nuggets but big portion for $11.50
    Samantha R.

    More stars if the prices were more worthy of the chicken being served. Tried the Buffalo fries ($11.50) big portion but tiny little nuggets of chicken, and 5 piece lemon pepper boneless for $10. Not sure how the lemon peppers were almost just as $much$ as a tray of Buffalo fries but pricing needs to be adjusted on the chicken. They have no dry rub options which is my favorite but gave the wet lemon pepper wings a try, nothing special and chicken was slightly dry. Won't be back overall disappointed and too expensive

    Fresh chicken, since it is not busy everything was made to order. This is my first time having Buffalo Spot and it's 5x better than ATL wings. The fries were a lot thicker and crispier. The onion rings were bomb I love when it snaps off without the onion string coming back at you! Maggie was very helpful and friendly. Didn't have to wait like at all for the food.

I especially loved the little side salad that came with it that I wasn't expecting. The French dip itself was savory, tender, flavorful and the horseradish added the perfect "kick" to the wrap. I'd definitely order it again but there were also so many other things that I'd try on the menu!

Just for signing up, I got enough bonus points for $5 off, plus $5 off for my birthday, so $10 total. I was in the area picking up another meal and decided to maximize my outing by ordering from here as well. It was easy using the app and ordering my food. I chose the 4 tender and tots meal ($10.99) and chose their homestyle tenders and for the two dry rubs, I chose Jalapeno Garlic Ranch and Chili Lime with the Mango Habanero (Spicy Sweet Mango) sauce. The sauces sounded really good and it was tough choosing one. ASAP orders are ready in 15 minutes but I chose a pickup time of 30 min. This restaurant is located on the north side of FLW, east of the 101 with a few other businesses and food spots. There was plenty of parking and they even have curbside pickup, which is cool. There were two doors to enter from and a few people dining in. Lots of seating. Pickup was quick and easy and I was on my way. The tots were yummy, I got the regular ones but am intrigued by their maple ones. The chicken tenders were full of flavor, especially with the sauce. I love that they are oven grilled as opposed to fried, and they were tasty. The instructions on the box say to pour the sauce inside and shake it up, but I decided to just dip the chicken in the sauce. I may have to try that method next time. Overall, this was a great choice for lunch and I'm glad I got to try it!

Inside, the vibe is excellent and cleaner than my search history. Contrary to some of the other reviews I've read, my service was incredibly fast and efficient. To be fair, we walked in well after the lunch rush, but the staff was still totally on top of it. As for the food, my friends ordered The Club and The Grinder, and both absolutely loved them. I went with the Moroccan Turkey, and oh my god, I loved everything about it. The standout players were definitely the Greek yogurt sauce and that red wine vinaigrette. Absolutely incredible flavor combo. That said... unless my friends and I have suddenly hit a massive growth spurt, the portions could definitely be a bit larger for what you're paying. We're in Scottsdale, not a micro-portion tasting menu in Paris. Feed us, ChopShop! The real plot twist of the meal was the BBQ potato chips. I thought they were absolute perfection. However, they caused a full-on culinary debate in our group. They lean pretty sweet and have this distinct Indian-spice vibe going on. If you're expecting standard backyard-barbecue Lays, you're going to be confused. Half the table was questioning their entire existence, while I was busy hoarding the bag. Come for the great food and healthy atmosphere, just maybe grab a snack beforehand if you're starving--and prepare your palate for the chip controversy.

Edit to add: Thank you for replying. I feel that I should add that it wasn't 7 minutes from when I ordered to when the girl finished making my protein shake. It was 7 minutes until she even started putting the ingredients together in the blender. Meanwhile, one girl was taking her time making a sampler platter, and the other girl was on her phone talking about a non-work related topic with her elbows on the table. I took a photo of when the girl finally started my order but then huddled with the other girl for 2 minutes over the cell phone.
