Buffalo Wild Wings

They by far have the best wings than any other restaurant in town. The wait staff is usually very nice and smiley. The only down-​side is that it is usually extremely loud.

Been here so many times… We always get to go food because the atmosphere is too loud for me. The over abundance of tv’s and the tons of staff running around is just too much for us to enjoy a meal. Our wings have usually been decent. There is the occasional miscount of wings or the super small batch of wings but on average it’s ok. It’s funny, I ate chicken wings as a kid because they were the cheap and now that is certainly not the case. Haven’t been in since their remod. Can’t imagine how much better they could make it. It was pretty new to begin with.

Horrible service. Ordered «to go» 90 min prior to pick up. Not ready when I get there. Big game night and all they can say is «sorry, we are busy». Really? Didn’t you know it was going to be? Manager standing around not helping doesn’t score points with me either.

Came here fora going away party. They had a few large tables in the bar area reserved so we could all be in the same area.
Rachel the waitress was awesome. Super sweet and speedy.
The food was ok. Had the teriyaki boneless wings and they were s bit over done and a tad on the dry side.
The drinks were good. Not too weak not too strong.
Overall decent experience.
I am disappointed that they do not allow conceal carry and that is very clearly stated. I have family in the military that does and they wouldn’t come here for that reason.

Horrible service. The hostess and host were at the front playing grab ass while I waited for a server. I was seated, waited 10 minutes and no one came to my table. They were not busy, and more than that, they did not want my business. Besides being over priced to pay for their advertisement bombardment, their food is not that good. I just wanted something different.
So I left and went to another restaurant that wanted my money.

Beer is ice cold and the happy hour specials are a great deal! Staff has always been friendly and helpful. Restaurant gets pretty crowded during peak times but you can usually find a table.

It’s a good thing the Parmesan garlic wings are so good. Had some fried pickles and chips w/​queso for appetizers. Took a long time to get them and the pickles were warm at best. There were 6 of us at the table and when our meals came no fries with one of them and one whole order missing. When they finally brought it out it was a wrap not a sandwich like was ordered. 45 minutes later she finally got her meal, but by then everyone else was done. Took it in a to go box. They did comp the missing meal but charged us for the missing fries. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT! Pretty much used up all their second chances with us.

Love to come here great food but you need to find what you like first. The beer here is always fresh and ice cold, try to sit in the bar during their happy hour for good deals. Almost always get boneless honey bbq wings they are tasty! The chili con queso is a must try here. Get their soft pretzels with queso and marinara it’s a great combo. We generally try to sit in the bar have gotten pretty good service every time

Love this place! Eat with Jodi, Ashley N, Rachel W or Ana! They are the best people there! So nice and always have good service!

Service varies. Can be inconsistent with wait staff. However, food & price is always good. Great happy hour specials. Lots of coupons. Always clean.

A great B-​Dubs! We love coming here to catch a game or any Tuesday or Thursday for the wing specials. We always sit at the bar and Austa is always our awesome server. Decent beer selection, although I wish they had more local and craft options!

Although I already had dinner prepared, a tuesday wing night craving had us venturing out to eat anyway. For .60 a wing, you can choose from any of the traditional flavors. This location, like most I’ve been to across the country was just average service and seemingly way over staffed. Why are there so many people working there all the time?
Nothing wrong with the food, standard wings and apps for us. Wings weren’t too saucy which was a plus, I hate when they are drowning in the sauce.
BWW is a good place to get cheap wings on Tuesday and watch sports on the big TVs. Average food and average service, but an easy draw because they are a well established chain. I will probably continue to come here once in a while when we get that wing itch.

No rating for this place. Not even 1 star for crappy service, fried batter instead of a wing and no drink refills. And we got charged for stuff we didn’t order. Guess he gave it to his friends who he gushes over at the table next to us.

Went today for their Tuesday Wing Special. $.60 a wing, which is much cheaper than what you would normally pay for their wings any other time (usually around $ 1 a wing). Place was packed as you could probably imagine. Having said that, I was somewhat surprised that so many people were still at the Restaurant around 12:30 PM when we arrived (place opens at 11 AM). I mention this because you probably have a window of between 1 PM (50% or more of the lunch crowd were gone by then) and around 3 or 3:30 PM if you’re looking to avoid a big crowd and get better service.
It took 10 – 15 minutes for my beer to arrive, and another 15 – 20 for my brother and I’s wing orders to arrive. Wings were hot (almost too hot temperature-​wise to eat; I let them cool down a little), and very good! Had three different flavors (Mango Habanero; Parmesan Garlic– my personal favorite; Asian Zing– probably my next favorite sauce), and if you’re a «wing connoisseur» (did I just say connoisseur? LOL :)), then there’s not too many better choices (yes there’s Mary Go Round and Gerri’s Tavern to name a couple high on my list) for Wings in Central Iowa.
They also have a promotion on Thursday for Boneless Wings. I’m guessing they too would be $.60 per wing? From my experience today (good but not great), I know that from now on I’ll go on Tuesday afternoons after 1 PM (avoid the lunch crowd and get in and out before the Happy Hour/​dinner crowd comes in).
The waitress was a sweetheart, and doing the best she could under the circumstances, but I was made to feel like I couldn’t order more wings if I wanted to. People often rate the restaurants they go to here simply on the service they receive, but they neglect the fact that if a restaurant is busy, there’s always the possibility that you’ll be left with an impression that you’re not valued as a customer. My experience today was far from that, but when a waitress doesn’t ask me if I’d like to order another beer or more wings when they have a promotion like this, I have to factor it into my review.

Having ate at multiple Bdubs around the country I can say this one is no different food wise. The food is always good and the menu is extensive enough for anyone to get something they would like to eat.
I’ve been to Bdubs near college campuses before and can say being in Ankeny, this location does not get the large groups of college kids there to hangout to watch the game. The crowd here mainly consists of families who enjoy sport themed restaurants, not too many younger people.
This location is always busy, but I have never had to wait for a seat so that’s a plus. The parking is easy here, tons of spots. Staff is friendly and food comes out of the kitchen in a fair amount of time. I come here often when I want my spicy wing fix.

Good time, had boneless wings, great bartender. Hard to stop and not spend 50 $. We like to play trivia

A small group from work went for lunch. Even though they weren’t busy it took over an hour just to eat. Very poor service, i will say the wings are pretty good. I prefer the Asian sauce.

I’ve been frequenting BW3’s since traveling it’s home in the Twin Cities in college.
I was thrilled when they opened in Ankeny. This location has been a popular rallying point for friends and I for over a year when looking for a place to watch hockey games on TV. Due to their large number of TVs we’ve never worried about being able to catch. It’s usually fairly crowded.
On Saturday we stopped here for the sole purpose of watching game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals. Unfortunately the world championship of hockey was relegated to one period on two small TVs. Apparently this is a big UFC hangout, which I respect.
They’ve got the NTN Trivia which has proven over the years to be a lot of fun as you can compete against other patrons in the building and nationwide.
There’s a pretty extensive menu featuring a lot of items beyond wings. But for me the wings are the reason I choose to come here. I would recommend that you stick with the traditional meat on the bone wings and pass on the boneless variety. The latest batch I had of the boneless seemed to be mostly very hard breading. The sauces are superb and you can mix-​and-​match your order with various sauces.

I’ve been to several other BWWs, and this one is by far the lamest. 3 reasons…
1. It’s small. Smaller than a normal BWWs.
2. It’s bright. Why would you have the lights so bright in a bar?
3. I really don’t have a 3^rd reason, although there probably is one.
It’s basically a lame BWWs. Go there once a year for a wing craving or to watch a sporting event you can’t get at home, but stay away if you’re looking for a fun place to hang out.

After living in Buffalo, NY for a couple of years, it feels good to have a little taste of my time there. Buffalo Wild Wings has a decent little franchise in Ankeny.
2 things to note.
I only order wings.
I usually order Asian Zing, Medium, Jerk, or Mild wings when not on wings/​legs night. (if you go, get every flavor and try it. I go crazy with every flavor on those nights)
Food is good, but service can be a little slow here. The place seems to be packed every Fri or Sat night.
Reasons to go:
1. Wings are awesome with flavors no one has. They are also more authentic than any other joints around.
2. Beer in schooners at decent prices. Can also get Labatt (ahhh Buffalo)
3. Trivia.
