Okay. Here we go. Husband me and our toddler went to this Bdubs. My husband and I used to go all the time in college. SHOUTOUT TO OUR SERVER WILSON!!! On our way to bdubs, we looked up the ratings. Things were not looking good with a 2.1/5 average score. Reading the reviews made us nervous. We decided to take a chance. We are happy we did!!! Was service good? It certainly was. And I'll tell you why. I asked if spicy garlic was good. I got "I don't know. I don't like it. But maybe if you like spicy food." Appreciate the honesty. Hubby ordered a second beer. Never came. But we didn't care because we were having such a good time!! I ordered a beer and server said they didn't have the kind I asked for. Checked and I saw it on the way in on the front door lol. Made us laugh a lot. But overall love our server's energy and overall vibes. Food was fire and nostalgic. Don't let the reviews scare you away. We had a great time and good food. Lots of laughter. We WILL be back for some more yummy wings. Happy to be the first 5-star review in over a year but they definitely deserve it. #BringWDMBdubsBack read more

I am devastated to report this - but overall everything about our experience was poor. I asked for a booth, and regret that. Only because, I would've preferred sitting at a clean table...the ground looked like a small child had thrown their entire meal on the ground, we ended up sitting together on the "cleaner" side of the booth after wiping crumbs off our seats. Our menus were sticky & the table matched. I am praying the table was sticky due to cleaning materials, however, the menus were not clean. 18 minutes later I went to a computer with a few servers and asked that we be seen. They had switched sections & our server didn't know we were her table. We put our food & drink orders in, all which came out quickly, however, I think the wing quality has gone down - near the end of our meal someone nicely cleaned the floor near our table. I will not be back to this location. read more

Poor customer service here. Ordered via Grubhub & was delivered missing multiple items. Manager said couldn't do anything because ordered thru GH....when it was HER staff that didn't do the simple task of verifying all items included. read more

This place has the most awesome wings I have ever consumed down my throat muscles. The only complaint I have with this bws is that it keeps making me wanna come back. However at times it feels like the service is a little sub par because they took forever to get my check and I kept wanting to buy more! The music sounds dull and during times of sports it can be quite loud which distracts me from absolutely destorying these wings like a dog on a bone! read more

Order was not complete. Paid for extra celery and two flavors of wings. $2.40 for two small pieces of celery. One flavor of wings was all that was delivered and no utensils. Despite paying for it all. read more

This place is so hit and miss. They've been missing most of the time lately. Quite honestly the only reason I come here is for the BOGO boneless Thursdays. Last time I ordered it was chaos. A ton of people waiting to pick up their orders because the staff decided to accept some huge order and prioritize that before all the smaller orders. I waited about 45 minutes past the scheduled pick up time. Very chaotic and people were very upset. Doordashers were losing their minds. No real manager to help with the situation. Just a bunch of employees who really didn't seem to care much. Yesterday , I went to pick up my order and after waiting about 5 minutes past my scheduled pickup time, they tell me the oven hasn't been working right so they can't make the pretzel knots. Not a huge deal but more time to wait. They kindly asked what I wanted in its place and the food was out within 5 minutes. They just can't seem to fire on all cylinders. Their only saving grace is the petite, young gal who works at the take out counter. She genuinely cares and seems to be the only one who knows what is going on. I think her name is Ali? As I was getting into my car to leave, I noticed one of their employees walking out to his car as well. His car was parked directly in front of the entrance. I would think those spots are closer to the door would be better reserved for customers rather than employees, but maybe Buffalo Wild Wings doesn't have that as a policy. Whatever. The food was fine. I really don't want to bad mouth the place, but just beware of potential service issues. It's the new norm. read more

There is no doubt their wings are good here. Obviously the NAME speaks for itself. . This is the second time I have attempted to go to this establishment and again the service is so diabolically bad . This time around, I went with a to go order easy enough on the app pick up time was estimated for 4 PM . I got in a little before four waited under five minutes for someone who walked by to greet me and ask if I wanted to be seated. No, I stated I have a pick up order. Great I'll look at that for you. Sat the people behind me checked a few other tables walked into the back never to be seen again. My order finally was brought out at 4:23 PM which typically wouldn't be a big deal except for it's a Monday night. I was bringing dinner home for the family as we had after school events at 5 PM I live over 20 minutes away. Thus ordering the food to go. I think most restaurants understand they have the option for guest to order to go because people don't have time to sit around otherwise they would come to the restaurant to eat inside. In the time that I sat waiting for my online order, I saw four groups of people who waited just to get seated, who eventually just left. I would have been one of those folks and would have gone to the Indian Restaurant that's fantastic in all things in the same shopping center. I gave a three star because once you get the food, it is good, but you have the time to wait? read more

kicked me out from the bar of any empty restaurant because I ordered food online. I will never go back to any buffalo wild wings ever. Please note this restaurant was not busy, over crowded, by any stretch. read more

I'd give it less if I could. My friend didn't have her id, who's 32, and the manager came to see her Iowa ID in her apple wallet. And, wouldn't take it and asked to see the QR code. There isn't a QR code to the apple wallet.. for a reason. The Iowa DOT uses the Apple wallet but Buffalo Wild Wings does not. She tried presenting a picture of her id, but of course that did not work as well. No one else was here in the establishment but the 32 year old couldn't get a drink.. read more

Slow service. Server never refilled drinks. Wings were dry and overcooked. They have lots of TV screens. I got there just in time for $8.25 beer night. And they served it flat. read more

Came in yesterday to have some wings with my family. We normally order out because the service has not been that great in the past years. It seems to have not improved. Our server Leila was very passive aggressive from the moment we sat down. She told us we could order through a QR code but we decided to just order with her since we were all paying together and we didn't know if we could do that through the code. She came to take our order and asked what we are having so I start telling her and she goes "can you wait a moment so I can get my pen and paper to write it down", I was like okay then. Why come up and ask if your not ready. I didn't tell her that but I thought it. My food was good and all but my brothers food had a hair on it and when he went to tell her she just stared and went okay and takes it away to show the hostess. Just unnecessary. First of all just apologize for the incident whether it was your fault or not. It's just common courtesy. She did eventually come back and apologize but the man who sat us came before she did and apologized. No one likes finding a hair on their food it just takes away their appetite. I understand it's a holiday week but it would be nice to be treated nice period. We don't want bad service either just as much as you don't want to be there. Wings are always crispy and juicy though. My favorite are the mango habanero. Coated to perfection just feel like they need to improve on their service big time. read more

We wanted to try the burgers. So we showed up. Extremely long wait to get our food & they didn't bring it out together. Our waitress waited on us for food & drinks. Then, 15 minutes later, another woman came over, making sure the waitress took our orders & then again for drink orders. Then, about 5 minutes later, we got our drinks. Then, 15 minutes later, my food arrives, but not my partners. Then 5 minutes later his food arrived. The wings were 1$ for 6, which is a good deal, but they were not good. They were cooked fine but just not good chicken & not good flavor. I took my salad to go & it was fine. The burgers were fantastic. Then, the waitress never checked on us again until I had to flag her down to pay the tab. Do not recommend going after 930pm or on Sunday or the extra wings for 1$. The entire next day, our stomachs were both upset. read more

I haven't been here in awhile due to the horrible service I had years ago however I wanted to give it another try. Thank goodness because this place has definitely turned itself around. The service is absolutely amazing and the food was great. I got my wings right away and was able to enjoy them listening to some great music. The place is much cleaner than before too and my service, Olivia, was amazing! Super nice and quick! Definitely made me a fan again and I'll be coming back to enjoy more wings! read more

Ordered fries and they came cold. Boneless chicken was ok. Bathroom was nasty, it hadn't been clean in a while. probably will to not go there again. KJ read more

I have been a patron of BW3s for decades and visit them routinely around the country. While I have come to expect my wings to be good but not great, I start all my reviews of BW3's with 3 stars and go from there. This is a nice location, a bit small but clean and friendly. I sat at the bar through a shift change and both the bartenders were nice and friendly. I would definitely come back, as they are very accommodating on getting your favorite team on a screen. read more

If I could give zero stars I would!!! Horrible service!!!! Been here for near 2.5 hours and still no food ! And when I ask the waitress is just rude about it. Do not recommend at all. read more

Carlos the bartender was awesome! Friendly, engaging, and has a heavy pour. Wings came out hot and crispy but flavorful and juicy on the inside. Probably the best Bdubs experience I've had. Thanks Carlos! read more

I had a simple take out order. 20 wings sauce on the side. Ive gotten better free wings at a college bar. Wings were dry and barely any meat. Also didn't get the sauce. Will not go back to this or any location again read more

Stopped by Buffalo Wild Wings craving some of their delicious wings and, on that front, they didn't disappoint - the flavors were on point as always. However, the service left a lot to be desired. It felt like an eternity before our food arrived, which is a real appetite killer. Plus, the ambiance didn't do much to lift our spirits; the place could use a serious deep clean. It's a shame because the food quality is there, but the dining experience doesn't match up. Hoping for improvements because I do love those wings! I went to Buffalo Wild Wings last night and was seated quickly. Our server, Mary, absolutely changed the game. Usually, we have pretty bad service, but last night was some of the best service I've ever had at any restaurant. We started with the house sampler as an appetizer, and it delivered. The nachos were amazing, as were the onion rings, mozzarella sticks, and honey BBQ wings. However, the food did take a very long time to come out. Overall, we were very happy with our experience at B-Dubs last night, especially since it typically has horrible service, but Mary changed the game. read more

They gave us 11 wings instead of 12. The waiter was slow and the chips were overcooked and the bathrooms smell bad.

Walked in right as they opened and was hit with the smell of stale beer and sewage. As we sat at the table, liquids dripped on us from the ceiling. Went to use the restroom and was also hit with sewage smell and it doesn't look like they ever clean it, especially it doesn't look like they cleaned up at the end of the day yesterday. Long story short, we left before ordering food. We will not be coming back to this location. read more

Possibly the un classiest experience I've ever had in a restaurant. Not that you expect classy from a bdubs, but I do expect proper service as I would at any establishment. Took our 3 girls for dinner. Waited forever to be served. Finally got our order in and they brought out 1 order for 1 of our 3 girls. 15 minutes later the other 2 got their meals, which by that time our first born was done. Watched our drinks sit at the bar for 10 minutes before we got them. Had to grab our own straws from the bar (we were seated in dining room). When we clearly were dissatisfied, our server began to ignore us more and refused to come to our table. We decided to grab to go boxes on our own and leave. As someone who works in the industry and has for 10+ years, this was by far one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had. Do better. 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND!! read more

2 hour wait for tenders and kids Mac and cheese. Waitress never checked in on us. Never offered a discount or any sort of compensation. Will never go here again. read more

After 4 beers, waitress said I've had enough after an hour and half. Horrible bartender for that

When we arrived on time to pick up our order they told us everyone's food is running 5-10 minutes behind. We waited and once our order was 20 minutes late, we asked again where our order was and someone went to the back and brought it up like it had just been sitting in the back. But when we got home 6 minutes away our food was ice cold. Also the restaurant had a sign up that they were out of ranch, I ordered carrots and ranch and didn't even get my carrots. How hard is it to get ranch from the store? read more

Went in on slow Wednesday night, but barely saw my waitress, and she tipped herself almost a ten dollar tip for doing the bare minimum. If I could give 0 stars I would. Wouldn't recommend if they just tip themselves read more

Food was surprisingly good, unexpected because it seems like Bdubs around Des Moines aren't very good usually. Only complaint was there are flies in here in the middle of the winter read more

My experience here was not good at all. We got our drink and it took a long time for a server to take our order ( I had to tell him we were ready while he was walking past). I'm not mad at our server but I'm quite frustrated at the kitchen staff. We did not get the the right food. We had four people at our table one person got their food 15 minutes faster then the rest of us. As a side we all orders chips and salsa but got very cold frys. Im genuinely disappointed, they used to be a very good restaurant. read more

I ordered online since I started craving wings while at work. I picked them up and the staff were very friendly and my food was immediately ready when I picked it up. So far it felt 5 star. When I got home, I opened my 2 boxes of wings and was disappointed. Are fries so expensive you have to count them in? Maybe I went wrong by asking no veggies but I expected a little more food than this. 2 of the exact same boxes you see pictured for almost $40. Heck no. Maybe I'd give it a try dining in to see if they give a little more food then, but not ordering online again. The quantity for the price you pay really brought it down to 3 stars. The wings were good but jeez my box felt empty. read more

I walked in it smelled horrible, wanted to throw up and we had to leave. I felt sick the rest of the day.

Dino nuggets drenched in ketchup would have been better. The fries tasted 2 days old at best. I am reminded again why I usually don't pick BDUBS- ain't the same as it used to be. read more

Order got wrong stuff had to wait 20 extra minutes for food and flag people down to get anything

I am updating my review from 2 stars to 4. I think they must have recently changed the way they handle things because we have ordered them about 2-3 times since my last review and everything has improved greatly! I also really like the new boxes where everything's sectioned off! Today I called in my order because the app wasn't working and had a 20% off through my rewards. They weren't able to get it to pull up on their either either because of the issues with the app and website, but the manager said they'd honor my 20% off if I showed them my app showing I had it. Which is really great! So, so far no issues with my wings either. I think maybe the new boxes are helping? Idk whats changed but it's working and I'm sooo glad. read more

Waited 20 minutes to be seated (which was fine) but it was very unorganized people who just put their names in were being seated before people who had been waiting, multiple people mentioned that to hostess. Server was very nice but service was so slow, took so long before she even came to take our drink order. 3 tables got up and left. We were sitting over half and hour before we got our water, about an hour before we got food. I got my food 15/20 minutes before my husband. Bathroom was a mess.. Water (I hope) all over the floors, paper towels all over sink, handle on toilet barley hanging on. read more

Food was ok fries were cold and O had my food before the entire table. 40 minutes from ordering they still have not had food. The waiters were very confused and disorganized. I am not sure what is broken but wow. read more

Went here again after years thinking maybe they improved. Nope, they did not. Boneless wings are basically chicken nuggets, nachos barely had anything on them, bone in wings were ok, a glass of Guinness was $7.25. Expensive with okay food. Not coming back again. read more
