They have recently renovated, it looks great, and so was their food. We all agreed, we’d do it again!

Our server Angel was darling. Attentive, funny, and great at what she does. The wine I bought by the glass was expensive, as it is at most places. I would have appreciated my second glass being refilled from the bottle at my table. I ordered the Brisket and it was fantastic. I recommend getting the bbq on the side as a good slice of brisket shines on its own. I would also suggest getting a side of their horseradish sauce. The only note I have on my dish was how incredibly seasoned the fingerling potatoes were. The seasoning was great, Cajun. Just dusted too much in my opinion. My partner got the Woodfire Burger and he enjoyed it. We also got the chili cheese fries appetizer and have no notes on that either! So yummy. Atmosphere was quiet and the fire pit in the center of the room kept me warm against the chilly glass windows. What a view, by the way.

It was a perfect evening. Our 20th anniversary. Food and service was exemplary. Nice touch with our deserts. They placed them both on a platter and wrote Happy Anniversary in chocolate syrup above them. Great time. We can’t wait to go back

Since 1982, Buffalo Wild Wings® (or B-Dubs® as our friends call us) has been the ultimate place to watch the game, have a cold beer and eat some great food. At Buffalo Wild Wings, you can always feel comfortable pulling some tables together with your friends and staying as long as you want.
