Buffalo Wild Wings Opens in New BJ's Mall in Kingsbridge





Above - You can see that every seat in the new Buffalo Wild Wings which Opened Monday April 17th in the BJ's Mall located at West 237th Street and Broadway (in the Kingsbridge section of the Bronx) is a sports fans fantasy, and the food is delicious as it is made to your order. 

Below - Is the bar area where more sports action can be seen (there are about 75 televisions large screen and giant sized as in the two photos all around the huge restaurant). You can order one of 14 Domestic, 12 imported, or 18 specialty crafted beers or brews. There are also dozens of assorted liquor drinks available, and be warned that you will see the sign that you must be over 21 to drink and your ID will be carefully checked according to the restaurant management. 






Above - More televisions, as you can see the Hockey and Basketball playoffs as well as baseball games were being shown. 
Below - Just a sample of the sports memorabilia on display throughout the restaurant. 





Above and Below are the menu items. You can see the 23 types of different sauces that you can get for your Buffalo Wild Wings, from Smilin', to Sizzlin', to Screaming flavors. Also on the menu are Burgers, Wraps, Salads, Kids Meals, side orders, drinks - Beer, Liquor, and soda, the available deserts, and the story of how Buffalo Wild Wings came about.





Above - No the #82 on the t-shirts is not for former Pittsburgh Steeler Hall of Fame Wide Receiver John Stallworth (the 82nd pick in the 1974 draft, who wore the number 82 as I thought), but for the year 1982 when Buffalo Wild Wings opened its first restaurant. 
Below - A Basketball game is available to play.



Overall my experience at Buffalo Wild Wings gets a 94 rating. Why 94 you may ask, well it was the first day, the food was excellent, the service was good, but I did see management strategically placed to help the staff with any problems that did come up. There were plenty of seats available, and in talking to the manager it was hoped that BJ's would have been open when Buffalo Wild Wings did, but business was good enough for a quiet grand opening. I was told that there are many special events that go on such as Traditional Tuesday Wing Night where the Traditional Wings go for 65 cents each, and on Thursday the same is for the Traditional Boneless Wings 65 Cents each also that night. It seems that for now there is going to be valet parking on the 2nd floor parking lot in front of Buffalo Wild Wings to prevent non shopping center parkers. Once Bj's opens there will be more parking as it was said there will be parking for 500 cars in all, and when business gets going at Buffalo Wild Wings all 500 spaces may be needed. 

This Kingsbridge Buffalo Wild Wings is a franchise store, and is the 16th store opened in the Metro area by the franchise based in White Plains. I was told however that while the franchise territory covers NYC, Long Island, Westchester County and lower Connecticut it does not include Staten Island or Suffolk County where there are Corporate stores. 




While many pay per view events are broadcast at Buffalo Wild Wings, due to the huge cost of the Championship Boxing match on Saturday May 2nd between Mayweather and Pacouiau there is going to be a $20.00 cover charge in the evening as is seen in the poster by the elevator.
