Super long post- but worth the read.
I have never given any review a 1 star, but this location deserves it.
From the moment we walked in, it felt like we were in a real‑life “how not to run a restaurant” training video, just without the comedy. After standing around, I finally went to the front to ask to be seated and have a table cleaned, and we still waited about 15 minutes with an empty, dirty section right in front of us. I literally had to flag down a waitress who was already working that area just to get someone to wipe a table so we could sit.
Once seated, the theme of the night quickly became “more waiting.” It took about 45 minutes just to receive our drinks, which showed up wrong and incomplete. Another 15 minutes went by before the corrected drinks finally arrived, and only then could we even think about ordering food. We tried to be proactive and asked to order appetizers and additional drinks all at once, hoping to get ahead of the delays. That plan did not help.
As time passed, we watched multiple tables who arrived long after us get seated, served, and leave, while we still had nothing coming out of the kitchen. Eventually, 2 of the 3 appetizers showed up, and one of them was cold enough that I walked it up to the front myself to ask for help. More waiting followed, and at this point even my young son — the birthday boy, who had specifically requested Buffalo Wild Wings — started complaining about how long everything was taking. When a kid who was excited for his birthday dinner is over it, you know it’s not just the adults being picky.
I finally asked to speak with a manager, and Liz came over to the table to explain that our waitress was in training and that the power had just recently come back on. I can understand things happen, but I had been in the restaurant for about an hour and a half with almost no food, while other tables were clearly getting normal service. If a server is in training, there should be someone actively helping her, and at the very least, management should be walking the floor and checking on tables that are obviously stuck in limbo.
In the end, I paid for the drinks we did receive and decided to cut our losses. Instead of the birthday dinner my son asked for, we left with an unhappy birthday boy and settled for McDonald’s on the way home. For a place that’s supposed to be about fun, wings, and sports, this visit was anything but, and that’s why this location earned a 1‑star review from me.
