The food was mid. We ordered the new appetizer the Buffalo Dip, those chips were absolutely horrible. They were so salty. Than our drinks took forever to get served. We got our drinks at separate times, the worst thing of it all. A 6 top came in after us and they received there drinks way before us. Than one of the margaritas we ordered was absolutely horrible. We asked to get made a different drink and when we got our bill they said they couldn't refund the money because they made the drink. We took one sip. It's been a long time since I've been to Buffalo Wild wing, I can tell you right now I won't be back again for a long time.

Worst service, ever. She was nice but clearly not trained properly.
There were 7’of us…ALL of our food came out cold. Like, cold cold.
There were only 3 tables in there.
There were 6 dirty tables and not one was even touched the entire time we were there.
What a joke.

I went to the Monona Wisconsin location at 11:45 p.m.. the staff took my order, no problem.
I have never ordered wings to go before. I assumed the sauces would come in cups for dipping. (Easier for transport). I don't like dipping My wings, but I understand if they came in cups to make it easier.
10 minutes later I received my food and went home to eat it.
To my surprise not only were the wings bathed in the sauces, they were separated by the three different sauces that I ordered!
The hot items were with the hot items, the cold items were with the cold items.
This staff member was probably just trying to make his last customer of the day happy and assuming it was a simple transaction. (I did NOT feel rushed by the way)
His willingness to accept my order right before closing, and an awesome experience with the to go order made a big impression.
As I said before, I've never ordered wings to Go. I also have not been to a Buffalo wild wings and at least 10 years.
This experience will definitely cause me to come back for dine-in experience with friends.
