We recently went to Buffalo Wild Wings. It had been so long we forgot why we stopped going. When we received the wings we remembered.

Holy moly, you would have thought they dipped them in salt not buffalo sauce. Even some milder barbecued type my wife got were salty to the extreme. They were like this the time before, but I do not remember it always being this way.

Did something change for all of them?

Maybe too long in the brine?

I think all the salt was in the sauce but who knows. Maybe it was both.

Went there twice. It wasn't busy, took 10 minutes to get seated. After 15 minutes we still weren't asked for a drink order so we walked out.

Pre covid we went there twice. The first experience was so bad the manager comped the meal and gave us a gift card. The second time we used the gift card. Have never had any desire to try a third time.

Used to go when it was called BW3's and their wings were pretty good.
I honestly can't remember the last time I've been there but to much salt would have me not going back. I don't use a lot of salt in anything.

I went to the Yooper BW once. The noise level was such that I could not talk to my GF. I recall the wings were on the salty side. Never been back.

Timely post! We went yesterday as we were nearby. Other options sucked worsely.

Wife: 6 traditional wings with something/garlic sauce (sucked)
Me: Blue Cheese Burger with fries.

Waitress brought the meal. Sorry, we have no Blue Cheese but I gave you some Blue Cheese Dip. Nice of you to tell me before hand.

$25 for lunch!

You ordered something that was on the menu and they decided to substitute something else without discussing it first?

Nope, not acceptable. Definitely not acceptable for twenty-five bucks.

I grew up in Ohio and went to B-Dubs when there were two locations in Ohio and that's it. Two locations. Buffalo Wild Wings and Weck. You could smoke in the place, they had a ladies night, pool tables, and wings were 20 Cents on wing night. I am happy for their success and continue to go every Tuesday.

I'm sorry you had a bad experience, I've had a few there myself, but just when I think I'm out, they puuuul me back in!

We go to a local wing place, single location, always busy, great wings, sauce is always good.

Used to hit Hooters, then Wing House, now Papa Bees, local and good...

And here i keep thinking, "at least the OP has no complaints about the salty nuts."

That's the last place here to go for wings. I am not a drinker and do not care for professional sports. So for me its 3 strikes. Fortunately there are several local pizza joints that have great wings. The one we have been to several times. They also offer great broasted chicken and jo-jo potatoes. The manager will call every so often and offer us a dozen of full size wings (broasted) for $5. She will have several packages of hot sauce ready for me or will sauce them if I ask.

They went anti-carry in 2013. That did it for me.

Looks good, and not to far out of the way for me. I'll give it a try and report back to you.

They probably don't have Clausen Garlic Pickles.

No but the Hot/Mild Garlic Wing sauce is tasty
They also have cold beer, the fries are good as well.
