This was a great place to kick off our short trip to Buffalo. We had asked several locals about places to find the best wings, and while answers vary and that topic is one of heavy debate in Buffalo, everyone at least mentioned this spot. It was convenient for us after leaving the airport and on our way to our hotel, so we made it our very first stop. Definitely did not regret that.
It's a big restaurant, but I'm sure it fills up often, especially on game days. After seating our server came over right away, got drink orders, and put in our appetizer of garlic cheese curds. We also ordered a Beef on Weck to split, 10 hot buffalo wings, and 10 hot honey bbq cajun spice wings on Brandon, the Buffalo Yelp CMs, recommendation.
Cheese curds came out fast, and the beef on weck (already halved) right after. The cheese curds were so delicious. Perfectly golden fried, robust garlic flavor, and the cheese had a great flavor and mouth feel. The Beef on Weck was good, but we had others while on the trip that were better, so that ended up being our last favorite thing here.. but still tasty.
That said, these were our favorite wings and bleu cheese of the trip. The hot buffalo was an excellent example of a classic... but I was totally blown away by the flavor on the hot honey bbq cajun wings. Their cajun seasoning had a wonderful flavor, hints of sweetness, and complimented the sauce like a glove. A little bit of their bleu cheese dip really made them special, not to mention, wonderfully presented and the fact that all the wings were plump and juicy. Someone took their time to pick out great wings before making these, and I appreciate that.
Great experience, food, and ambiance. Hit on all front. Would return without question!
