    Garlic Parm Chicken Wings
    Kimberley A.

    Mozzarella sticks 10/10 Battered not breaded. Cooked perfectly. Cheese was melted and stringy. And we're edible right away, not too hot! Chicken Wings 8/10 The wings took close to an hour to get, which is a little crazy to me. Typically wings only take 30 minutes or less to cook. We were getting very antsy and thought they actually forgot to put the order in. Garlic parm: Perfectly crispy. Messy sauce, pretty good garlic flavor too. Lemon pepper dry rub: the rub didn't really stick to the wings very well, it was mostly all over the plate, which kinda stinks. The flavor was not bad though when you did get some. One of the bartenders recommended trying honey on a wing, because of a strange pregnancy craving she had, and I have to say it was not terrible! I tried it on the lemon pepper wing since they were lacking seasoning. I would actually order a honey flavored wing.. (here's an idea: maybe like brown sugar honey and they're char grilled!)

    The Heart and Soul of Wagon Wheel with The Thirsty Three!

    The best bartenders, wings and people! What a great find for us. We were in town to attend the Bills game, stopped by with little expectation. We made new friends, were made to feel welcome, were given the quickest service and were pleasantly surprised by great live music. We loved the place so much we went back again after the game on Sunday just to get some more wings and spend more time with the great crowd at Wagon Wheel. We have a new place to visit every time we are in town for a Bills game Kathy was by far our favorite and I'm sure she makes one and all feel welcome. Thanks for the great weekend.... The Thirsty Three!

    We entered this place at nine o'clock on a Thursday night, the bar is right in front of you with a few chairs and dartboard. Walk up the few stairs and there is a pool table and more tables in the back. There was a guy playing guitar on stage and he was pretty good, although it was far too loud. We ordered a couple of beers on tap, the only light beer is Coors Light. We received a couple of menus and ordered twenty crispy wings, half hot, half mild. We also ordered frings. We had to wait over thirty minutes for the food to arrive. The onion rings were overlooked and too hard, the fries were steak cut and didn't taste that great either. The wings were really good with the perfect amount of crispness and were a good size. I think I'll try to come in here a bit earlier next time to avoid the super loud music. The wings are the clear winner.

    Dive bar. Jukebox. $0.50 pool table. I wouldn't buy my wings from anywhere else in Niagara Falls.

    Place is a joke! No service had to leave!! You must have to be a local to get service.

    Great traditional cornerstone of the Niagara Falls community. Personable staff, and one of the region's best for billiards.

    While staying in the area I looked at reviews for something decent and came across this place -…read moreGetting there around noon on a weekday, they were rather busy, so I sat at the bar and within a few minutes it was completely packed at the bar. Service from the bartender was great. He offered up some suggestions, which I needed because they have a large menu loaded with so many appetizing and amazing looking options. I started with their potstickers... They came out with a hard, fried shell and the dipping sauce went nicely with them. Enough to share, or even enough to enjoy and still have room for an entrée. My main dish was their Chicken & Waffle. This isn't some ordinary chicken and waffle, it's definitely an amped up version, made with unique and interesting ingredients, culminating in great flavors! The chicken was so large and very tender - it was amazing! The bacon and sauce on top went with it nicely, and the chive waffle was great with it! Each bite was definitely amazing! This was a great experience, I can see why they have so many reviews and such high stars, those are well-deserved stars!! Definitely recommend stopping in here!

The atmosphere was calm and relaxing, which made it even more enjoyable. I ordered fried calamari along with single chicken wings tossed in an Asian sweet and spicy sauce--both dishes were flavorful and satisfying. The combination of crispy textures and bold flavors really stood out. What made the experience even better was the service. Our server was amazing--attentive, friendly, and truly great at her job. She made us feel welcome from the start. I always enjoy trying new places, and this visit did not disappoint. If you're looking for an American restaurant near Niagara Falls, this is definitely worth trying. We ended the meal with a delicious dessert,which was the perfect sweet finish to a great experience.

You made the visit. Now, when you market yourself as the Original Buffalo Wing, that carries real weight. There's history there. There's pride there. And honestly, there's an expectation that comes with it. If you're going to carry that banner, you have to be better than Buffalo Wild Wings. That's just the reality. The identity of the place is built on being the original. The wings were good. Solid flavor, classic presentation, cold beer, sports on the TVs -- it checks the boxes for a fun wing spot. But were they clearly a step above other national wing chains? Probably not. And that's where the expectation gap shows up. That said, it's still a good place to grab wings and a beer. Bring your buddies, bring your family, bring your girlfriend -- catch a game and hang out. It's casual and comfortable. If you're in Niagara Falls and want to experience the history behind the name, it's worth a stop. Just go in expecting a solid wing-and-beer experience rather than something that completely resets the standard.

    I've heard about Anchor bar many times over the years and though the pics I've seen of their…read moreBuffalo Wings never looked appetizing to me, I stopped in here one evening because it was a quick walk from my hotel and it was pouring rain. When I got there they were moderately busy, but there were many seats available at the bar, where I sat. It took a while before the bartender came to greet me and it was a quick touch & go when she did. Service was extremely lackluster the entire visit as she stayed at the other end of the bar the entire time, either handling service bar or patrons on that end... Made me wish I would have sat down there instead. But I had to wait for basic stuff, like a fork after being served my food. The food was decent. I tried their Beef on Weck and Wing combo - It looked nice then it came out, but it didn't come with much horseradish and I wanted to ask for more, but I'd still be waiting, so I dealt with what I got. The sandwich itself was great! Beef was tender and flavorful, the bun was great too - except I don't understand why they made them with the outside being so greasy, that's nasty. The wings had decent flavor, I ordered them with their spicy BBQ sauce on them, which wasn't spicy at all. They had a nice crisp to them too, but they were small and not very meaty, so 5 went down quickly. The fries were plain and basic, nothing special. I had to wait quite a while for the check and ended up flagging down the barback to get it for me and hurried up and paid while I had his attention, as the bartender never came back down to our end of the bar. Seems like the 2 guests around me had the same issue. Overall, it's a touristy place with mediocre food and poor service.

We ordered two flavors of non-Buffalo boneless: hot honey and dr pepper char-bq, and a side of onion rings. I had soda, hubs had a cocktail of which I tried a sip. My favorite part of dinner was the cocktail; if I hadn't been designated driver I would have enjoyed having this. I can't remember which one it was, but it was my kind of cocktail; very fruity, somewhat sweet. Not fancy-schmancy but tasting very good. The onion rings were the breaded kind rather than the crispy bread crumb kind, they were fine but not standout. The wings... eh. I am a big fan of Plucker's Dr. Pepper BBQ wings but I didn't love these. The char taste was actually overpowering and I expected a bit more sweet to the sauce than it had. The hot honey was also charry and not super sweet. It was all fine, but not something I would crave. The place has a cute casual ambience and our food came out fast, there wasn't a crowd though on the weeknight we were there. I'd come either to drink or because friends really wanted to but otherwise I probably wouldn't request it. But, like I said, I'm not a tabasco fan so I couldn't partake in what they are known for and what they (probably) do best, so I don't say this to discourage others - mainly just so I remember my own opinions.
