We go here a few times a year. The host was amazing. Every time we go there it is the same gentlemen. He’s super friendly, seems to enjoy his job and knows his customers, at the time of visit there were quite a few people there and instead of just calling your name and saying table for four, he walked right up to us knew who we were and asked us to follow him. Our waitress was amazing, patient with questions we had and exceptionally friendly as well. I would go here again and loved our food and timing of wait. Highly recommend this place!

Wings and all the food was good And was the service. Stoped on the way back from the falls. Cool place definitely stop by if your in Buffalo.

Your bar tender is THE perfect character for your place - or any bar. The right balance of friendly, fun, professional... I'd be glad to have him if it were my place! Didn't catch his name, but tell him thanks for being him. Oh, btw... wings were great! First time - we're from Texas and I used to work for THE only wing place I'll intentionally eat at -- Wings n Things on 1960 in Houston. They've got your chicken NAILED - but waaaay better hottest hot sauce (theirs is called Mario sauce & I can't get anything close to it). I'm glad to have tried the OG & super thankful that Mario & Marie have Wings n Things right near home :)

What can you say about the OG wing experience? Wings were plump and well flavored, but soft rather then crispy. The blue cheese had good size chunks and robust taste. The beef on weck also had good flavor but the roll seemed to be a hamburger roll topped with salt and caraway seed instead of a firmer/chewier bun. Worth the time to make the pilgrimage, but there may be better wings out there.

Still the original, and still good, just not as amazing as it once was. Our service was curt and snappy, the atmosphere is cool. We got the white pizza, which has a pan fried dough bottom (Greek style) I would not repeat, but the wings are what we really came for and they were the expected classic buffalo wings. It's kind of a shame that the 50 piece meal which is so impressive, only lets you break it up into two different sauces.

As classic of a place as one would expect from the restaurant that invented the Buffalo Chicken Wing. Walking in a top tier motorcycle collection is mounted around the upper walls of the establishment, and you're quickly greeted by the host. Putting our name in we got a beer from the classic bar and quickly was called for our table. Wanting to experience the original Buffalo sauce, we ordered a bucket of 20 wings and polished them off! Not too vinegary, perfect amount of twang I could've at 10 more. Delicious, definitely worth checking out if only for the experience!

The birthplace of buffalo wings was outstanding! It is kid friendly, the food was great, and the staff was very welcoming. I absolutely loved the wings, but one caveat that I wanted to tell folks…. It is a drier wing that isn’t just saturated with sauce. The flavor was outstanding, and they were some of the best that I had ever had. I ordered the original buffalo wings and it came with a prime rib sandwich with a dipping sauce. It had great flavoring and was cooked perfect. This was worth the trek for our family to see this spot (which is super close to the falls)!

A must eat, see and visit, in buffalo, it is the place where everything started, and yes it is unbelievably delicious, I have never tasted so good wings in my life, like this.The workers are so nice and professional, the entire place is a must see, the pictures on the wall of fame is remarkable, and wall of the licences plates, plus you can buy the recipes.Remarkable experience, I strongly recommend to add this to your bucket list.

First off whoever answered my messages on facebook was extremely friendly and welcoming. When we walked in the hostess was very kind and sat us. The place is busy but the staff was as friendly and welcoming as they are beautiful. The service was fast and the food was delicious. My mom usually doesn’t like spicy but couldn’t get enough of the wings. We came all the way from Montreal just for this. Best part is you can take home the sauces for only 5$ each. Highly recommend if you are or even aren’t in the area. Kelsey was amazing also. Always a smile and always attentive listening and answering.

I shall no longer refer to the food at Buffalo Wild Wings (a chain restaurant) as really bad; I'll just note that they are "authentic."
