This wings place gets 3.5 stars…read more Got the lunch special: a half pound of wings with fries & pop. Apple bourbon wings were pretty good. They were crispy. The batter was quite thick. They tasted like apple (no bourbon). Fries were a lunch portion. They were good - dusted, with some texture The swamp sauce here is Buffalo.

CHECK IF YOUR FOOD IS COOKED…read more Foremost I just want to say this is the first review I've ever posted simply because I'm not that kind of guy, but I want everyone else to be safe when eating from this place so just as a precautionary I'll post my experience. I knew the prior owner Mina would never let this happen and I've heard you're under new management and it shows. I Just picked up a sloppy chicken from an order over the phone and I don't remember them asking me if I wanted it medium rare. I had so much faith in this place that I took two bites out of a half not even thinking it would be raw before looking at the inside - hopefully I won't get food poisoning. I had the decency to call you and explain the situation and you offered to cook another one for me. I was not able to drive back 20 minutes again to pick up another order so I thought the least you could do was deliver me a cooked one. The answer I got was a No because they don't have any delivery drivers and the only option was that I can come pick up another one. The business under prior management actually generated enough revenue to support it's own delivery drivers (some of which were my friends). It's clearly become a pretty sad joint now but I strongly recommend if you decide to eat from this place that you inspect your food before becoming sick.

On my weekly search in Burlington for new places to eat for our lunch group, I happened upon a new…read morebar / restaurant in the Millcroft plaza (Appleby and Upper Middle). This was an old location for a Shoeless Joe's http://www.yelp.ca/biz/shoeless-joes-burlington?hrid=_S4a1higgLdpVAcbFK2paQ hopefully the issues which the previous restaurant haven't translated to this new bar/restaurant. Frank and Teresa's Anchor Bar is directly related to the original "Anchor Bar" located across the border in Buffalo NY. The Anchor Bar in Buffalo is credited as the birthplace of "Buffalo Wings" (a buttery hot style of chicken wing preparation) for those who haven't tried one before. I have never been to the original location, but knowing people who have eaten there the reviews are "average". I would say my reviews are somewhat weighted towards verified reviews by other Yelpers, but I am always one to give a location a try. I was pleasantly surprised at this new location. I sat at the bar and I was greeted by a server who I would like to say was training, but she was friendly enough. Asking for a drink order, I saw they had a good selection of drafts on tap. Goose Island Honkers Ale is my new favorite beer of the month and they had that on tap along with the IPA ($7.95) The beer was cold and crisp. I asked for some recommendations for my lunch and I was helped by another bartender/server who was pretty knowledgeable about the concept and the menu. She highly suggested the wings (that was a given) and some other choices including some interesting burgers. Being that I am NOT a wing person, I decided to go against my usual food choices and opt to try out these "famous" wings. I ordered the Wing Dinner ($15.99) which comes with fries, coleslaw and 1 lb of wings (8pcs) and your choice of sauce (maple honey garlic). After taking my order I looked around at the restaurant and the layout was pretty much the same as the previous restaurant that was here. Signed pictures of famous people, bottles of wing sauce, large screen televisions are throughout the restaurant. Everything looked clean and new (the location just opened on the Friday before my visit) The food arrived in a good time and it looked great. The wings were a great size and it was divided evenly between flats and drums. In my limited wing experience, I have tried a battered/breaded type of wing and one that are floured. These wings are the floured style of coating, which leaves a nice crisp skin on the wing (I personally like breaded). Perfectly cooked and pretty meaty! The sauce was alright, but I think if I was to order wings again I would try the tangy sauces instead of the sweet. The coleslaw was freshly made and it was a creamy style not vinegary. I personally loved the french fries that came as a side. Skin on potatoes, looked like they might have been fresh cut and the spice that was on top of it was excellent. All in all it was a good lunch, good service, nice location, prompt service food was good. Considering that this location has been only open for a week, you really can't ask for much more. 4 stars

Canada Day weekend... Let's drive to Buffalo and have Anchor Bar wings while we're there! On…read moresecond thought... Let's skip the border wait, go for a great bike ride in Bronte Park and then have wings at the Burlington Anchor Bar! Nice sports bar with seating inside, bar, booth, or table. Our booth had its own TV.... bonus! Ordered the double pound of medium wings, onion rings, and and house salad because it's the healthy part of the meal. Rings were crispy and good as was the salad. The wings? They were good too. Decent sized wings, not too scrawny and not hormone mega sized either. And you save the drive to Buffalo! Service was friendly and absolutely no complaints there.

I was at the Wild Wing inside Mohawk 4 Ice. I described what I wanted, and what I didn't want. When…read moreI ordered the honey hot wings I would not expecting it to be so hot that I couldn't taste the honey and all I could taste was the hot sauce. I brought it back assuming I got the wrong thing and when given the replacement I got cheese sticks. Good thing I checked. 5 mins later I got back the same wings I originally ordered. I originally ordered 3lbs in two trays and this new tray only had 1lb of wings. She proceeded to tell me that now they are at a financial loss because of my order. I said I didn't care because as a customer if I'm telling you it's not what I ordered it's your job to fix the problem. She then proceeded to grab both trays and was likely to refund me the entire bill but I had eaten some of the wings and wanted to keep them. She then refunded me half or the $32 (minus tax/ minus tip). Although I will be at this place regularly for my daughter's hockey practices and some games this place will never see me. I don't like bad service. I don't like wasting my money. I don't like arguing with staff about my food. I want it to be right and if it's not right, make it right. I don't want drama. It spoils my appetite and pisses me off. To add insult to injury, when she originally brought me the food she said the 3lbs of wings are not supposed to be in containers because they are to be eaten inside the restaurant. I reassured her I was staying to eat but I didn't think I would be able to finish which is why I wanted the to go containers. I told her that she would have given them to me regardless so I didn't understand what difference it made. Ugh! Miserable meal. Miserable customer service. Please do better.

None of our food was on time (got carrots and celery 20 minutes before wings, got 2 sets of fries,…read moreone incorrect, quiet a few minutes later got the rest of our fries, then 10 minutes got our wings in 5 minute increments of each other) finally we're eating, spinach dip is watery and tasteless. Wings were all over cooked, and wrong flavoured. Lastly order two kids pizzas (supposed to come with fries, they didn't) and two ice teas. Finally the bills...have had a table of 3 bills, the waitress was quite confused on how to break this up...then gave one of our bills with a $3.50 kids ice tea, and the other not...when asked about it we were told ice tea wasn't part of the kids meal, we then pointed it out in the menu and was told the system was broken and they couldn't take it off.
