Buffalo Wild Wing Cafe

Wild Wing Cafe

Charlotte, NC

Tuesday November 1st.

7:45pm

It's a chain. You know what to expect. Good wings. Good enough service (sometimes).

The Order:
Buy a dozen wings, get a dozen wings free: half jalapenio cheddar, half Chernobyl. Side of Buffalo chips (house chips with blue cheese crumbles). Sweetwater 420 on special.

We got a giant pile of wings and shared. We really like the jalapenio cheddar and these didn't disappoint (our advice- order them extra crispy). The Chernobyl were a little too hot for me (her) but he really took one for the team and ate most of them. He's a good husband. The chips were a let down. Plain chips with blue cheese crumbles that didn't adhere. Kinda tasty but a pain in the butt to eat. No fun at all.

The Sigmas:

Deliciousness: 0

Good enough. Nothing special. Nothing bad, either.

Price: 0 (1.5 with the special)

Normally they're fairly priced, but you can't go wrong with BOGO.

Value: 0 (1.5 with the special)

Free food! Only drawback is you can't "split sauces." In the past we've gotten 18 wings, with six each of three different sauces. Can't do that with this special, so we got 12 and 12.

Service: -0.5

Eh. It's a chain.

Menu Variety: 1

There is a huge variety of wing sauces if you're in to that. Most that we've tried have been pretty darn tasty, which I'm impressed with. My experience has taught me that it's a whole lot easier to make a bad wing sauce than a good one.

Unique Experience: -.05

Again. It's a chain.

Beer Selection: 0

Good specials at times, but otherwise eight different kinds of miller/coors/bud.

Wine Selection: N/A
Wings and wine? Never tried that one. Didn't even look to see what kinds of white zinfandel they had.

Estimated Frequency of Return Trips: 0.5

When we want wings it's a great choice.

Overall: 0

Mmmm. Wings and beer. If you want wings, you can't go wrong with this place, but it IS a chain and service can be pretty slow. Some might not mind the service issue but I (him) tend to get pretty snippy when there's bad service. Unreasonably so. Call it a character flaw.
