I sort of got into this topic in the "Rumor Has It" thread, which has gone a little off-topic, so I thought I'd start a wings thread here. My apologies if this has been brought up before.

I am no longer supporting Moe's Southern-Style Hot Wings, because (1) on a good cheap wing night, you're lucky if you get your order in 45 minutes and (2) the place is horrendously dirty, and I mean RAUNCHY. After eating there three weeks in a row and seeing the same roach floating in the urinal, I knew it was time to take my business elsewhere. It had gotten to the point where I couldn't eat.

I know Mudpuppy's is known for their wings, but it's a trashy bar where you're lucky if you even get served. BWW is manufactured, as is to be expected with any chain. O'Charlie's was good for their Chipotle BBQ wings until the prices went up and the quality went down. I've heard Remington Grill was good before it shut down.

I'm just wondering if there are any good wing places in the 'burg that I don't know about? I'd love to hear some suggestions, and cheap wing nights are always a plus.

Mudpuppy's wings rule. It's not even close. BW3 is garbage.

On random Saturday nights they still do. I've only seen live music there twice. I practically live there on Sunday afternoons. Football, wings, beer ... yeah, I can't wait for the NFL to get going again.

It's going off of Wards Road by the Goodwill. I forget the restaurant that was there before. I love Hams.

We took our dorm to Moe's last year for Kareoke and wings. Absolutely filthy.

Has anybody been to Buffalo Wild Wing? what is that place like? and I agree with everybody about Moe's Hotwings. The place is not clean at all.

BW3 is fairly pedestrian in general. I can't tell you much about the Lynchburg location since I've never been there. But I've done the Buffalo Wild Wings (& Weck back in the day) thing for two decades. If there are no great options, its ah-ight.

my friend here in the great chicago land who is still in highschool started this "Fat club" at his school, and theres about 10 of them, and earlier this summer the ten of them ate over 1000 wings at buffalo wild wings in less than an hour, i was there to witness it, and it was (1) amazing, (2) awe inspiring and (3) the grossest thing i had ever seen. Then one proceeded to take a shot of the blazing sauce(shot is in drink, not needle, sorry if im explaining something that doesnt need to be explained i jsut got offf work and am tired haha). i personally happen to think their wings are pretty good, but i also live in white suburbia where the only other choices are KFC and Hooters. im excited for some southern cookin' and sweet tea

Would it be gross of me to say that Mudpuppies wings shoots right through me and burns while coming out? I dread Sunday evenings.

On a side note, Red Lobster did that to me the other night. Medic knows, I was talking to him as it happened.

Haha... actually, Moe's 911 Ultimates (and probably anything hotter) will do that to me.

Buy now, PAY LATER.

Is anybody else a huge fan of BWW spicy garlic sauce option? I've only been there twice and found it to be a bit of a rip off but I really like that sauce on my wings. I like spicey food but prefer to have more flavor that scorch my mouth for the day. These wings fit the bill.

BWW has awful service. Went there one NFL Sunday and we were treated so poorly that we left a 10-cent tip. We asked the waiter if he could put a game on, and he was a total jerk about it. Said they couldn't do it, and well, sorry, but your game just isn't a priority.

Not the thing to say to paying customers. His whole demeanor was just rude. I've only been back once or twice since then, and that was almost exclusively to drink beers.

Their wings are small, the sauce is non-descript, and everything is too expensive. The place sucks.

i agree, their service does completely suck, we went onetime and had a bill of at least 100 and left a one dollar tip and i dont know they even deserved that

I used to like Buffalo Wild Wings until a chicken sandwich I ordered wasn't even cooked all the way through. Now, I just buy the sauces from them and make the wings at home.
