“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We hosted a private party here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience! From start to finish, the service was outstanding. Arron, the manager, along with his amazing assistants Greg and Allison, went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. They were attentive, professional, and incredibly friendly—our group felt truly taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish full of flavor and served hot and fresh. Guests are still raving about it! The atmosphere was fun, casual, and welcoming—perfect for celebrating and relaxing at the same time. If you’re looking for a place with excellent service, great food, and a lively vibe, this is the spot. Huge thanks to Arron, Greg, and Allison for making our event unforgettable! ⸻ Do you want me to make this sound more formal and polished (like for a magazine/website) or more casual and personal (like a Google/Yelp review)?“

“Food and service was great. Wish you didnt have ignorant managmrnt that didn't have experience with Cork Fees. I asked what the cork fee would be on a bottle of Buffalo Trace and he replied its illegal to bring outside alcohol into a bar. We'll lost you a free $20. But good food and service.“

“I arrived here at 7:18pm on a Friday night with a friend to get some food and a drink. We sat at a high top by the entrance. It wasn’t busy at all. About a minute after sitting, the waitress came over to introduce herself and bring waters.

Around 7:30pm, we ordered chips and queso, drinks, from the bartender who came over to serve us. Our drinks arrived 7:35pm and they were tasty.

I ordered our food at 7:36pm and it came at 8pm. I got garlic parm wings and a side of fries. My friend got a quesadilla. The fries are LARGE and shareable! All of the food was tasty and we enjoyed it greatly.

No complaints at all, really. Waiter was attentive and prompt. I would definitely return.“

“Food is pretty good for a wing joint. The bartenders are always helpful and provide great service. Cearia is keeping this place alive as she is always upbeat and ready to help!

They need to clean their exterior windows as this is the first thing customers see.“

“I didn't even know buffalo wild wings had to go stores. The cashier screwed up my order, luckily I noticed it quickly. She fixed it very quickly and added some free wings for the inconvenience.
She didn't need to do that but it's really appreciated!“
