Seneca Wallace's Wingstop

[dinger]

If you are saying it is worse than the BWW close to me than Wingstop is likely to be quickly closed by the Health Department.

You're right, let me clarify...

In Dallas BDubs is better, and therefore Wingstop is cheaper and rightfully so. HOWEVER, Im sure Seneca's food quality, cleanliness, pricing, customer service, and everything else that makes a restaurant successful, will be hands down incredible. I will give him my wing business anytime I am back.

I'll take the Number 15 combo

With a block of #4 for my friend

If it's mostly takeout, why don't they do delievery? Also, wingstop needs to add honey BBQ to their menu

Small boneless wings with ranch ends up being +$13.

Your preferred order at BWWs is honey BBQ boneless? Why not just go to McDonalds?

Have you ever watched Shameless? That hair definitely fits his dirtball character on that show.

Funny as hell though. And his daughter on the show, played by Emmy Rossum, is worth the price of admission.

I'll admit, she could turn me.

9 wings are $11

A 22oz Laginutias IPA is $6.75, which is a pretty normal price for this type of place. BMC is $4 for a pint.

You add beer to any place and it usually brings the tab up to $20.

I'm not saying it's the greatest food in the world but IMO there isn't that large of difference in wings compared to something like pizza or burgers. The sauce is key and BWW has a lot of great sauce choices. With that said, I'm trying to watch what I eat so I never go to BWW anymore since wings are pretty much horrible for you.

I like their food and atmosphere (if you don't know the lay of the land), I just think the value isn't that great.

I do like BWW sauces better than Wingstop. But Wingstop has the better overall value.

Yes but will it take 45 minutes to get your order, and you just hope it's correct? With an inattentive and disinterested waitress???

Otherwise BWW still has the market corned.

Wingtop is much much quicker. You order up front and they call your number.

Some interestng memorabilia in the Ames location. The run:

I got it, but it was a good opportunity to point out that the quality not the price was the problem I have with BWW.

But you're talking to Iowans so we went there anyway

William H. Macy is too old to be rocking that kind of hair.

I'm not sure who you speak of. That is Frank Gallagher.

I miss BW3. Buffalo Wild Wings & Weck. where's did the ******* weck go?

Working in the Twin Cities, straight from college - great happy hour / wing specials. The wings were not huge, but not the tiny pieces of **** they are now.

When is the Merle Hay location expected to open? Where at on MH?

BWW's Caribbean Jerk is my favorite wing sauce ever.

I do like Wingstop though because it's cheaper, and the Cajun and Lemon Pepper wings are typically delicious.

Service is hit or miss at either restaurant, in my opinion.

$20 is what you pay for a nice meal, not wings, fries, and beer.

Really, a nice meal? Sure, something more upscale than fast food, but you're solidly in Applebee's/Chili's/TGIFriday's territory. You can find better quality stuff at local restaurants for that price but you never know exactly what you're getting. If you're away from home or have picky eaters having a familiar option can be worthwhile.

The key to BWW is to plan on eating so many wings that beer and fries aren’t an option. Just gorge yourself with Boneless Honey BBQ and you will be fine.

Newer strip center on corner of Merle Hay and Douglas. Found this pic. It will be the commercial bay to the right of the mattress store:

Lucky. I wish Ames could get another mattress store.

I just looked at my receipt from a recent work trip stop at BWW - medium wings was $15.99 - beer was $7.95 - tax was $1.80, tip was $5 = $30.74. For wings and one beer. For one person. That's insane.

Decent food, good atmosphere, waaaaaay high prices.

Nice - that DSM location is like 5 minutes from my house. Looking forward to trying it.
