Follow up visit number 3. We did that all you can eat wings on Wednesday and it was a huge hit/success . I just ate 30 wings for $12.99 . I looked up 30 wings at Buffalo Wild Wings and that would be $37 . Our server was amazing and the Honey Stinger sauce in the bourbon sauce is amazing the kids enjoyed their food as well a little expensive for a beer at 7:50 but it was totally worth it and we will be back l. Follow-up visit update: the all-you-can-eat wings are $12.99 per person - which is still not a bad deal. However, the beer prices and kids meal prices have gone up substantially. A kid's meal is $9.00 and the kids chicken tenders (2 of them) are more like chicken nuggets and then a handful of plane jane fries. Pretty ridiculous for what you pay. A pint of beer is now $9.00!!!! THey also charge .50 cents for ranch. Lastly, a recurring theme we see every time we go there is that our orders get screwed up in some fashion. Things like I ordered bone-in and they come out boneless. Or for some reason they brought the wings out 'naked' or they bring the wrong beer. Literally, it happens every single time. If we go back, it will be just my wife and I with no kids, and we will drink our beers beforehand. First timers at Blue Shark. Went here for Wednesday night wing special with my 3 kids. $10.99 all you can eat with the purchase of drink. The sauces are sooooo good!!! We got there around 6 o'clock PM and it was not as busy as I thought it'd be. We sat down right away and had excellent service from Janee. She made several recommendations and they were on point. Restaurant was clean and not too loud for our three kids. Bathrooms were clean. We'll be back for sure. Umm, not ever going back to bdubs after visiting here! Thanks Janee!!!!!

I was lucky enough to go here on Wednesday night, which is when they have “all you can eat wings”. I tried them with their Mango Habanero sauce and it was amazing. It had a great blend of sweetness and hotness. My drink of choice was the Shark Punch - which I loved (had several). I told my team how good it was a several other people got one too and thought it was amazing. We had a great time! Plenty of screens to watch various games. Waitresses were extremely nice and helpful the whole time. We also tried various appetizers like the cheese curds and spinach dip which were a huge hit. One of the bar tenders did break a glass while we were there which ended up scaring a few of us for a second, but it was fine.

Has a big open seating area with TV's scattered about. I can imagine this would be a loud environment if busy. It wasn't bad when we were there but were not busy when I visited. They have a nice menu selection for this type of place. Overall it's decent but for me a couple things I didn't care for. They are not very good at grammar. If I read "ALL burgers $2 off" they do not mean all. I'm not sure what dictionary they used to define "all" The other thing is the ground beef they used is the worst tasting beef I've had. No flavor at all. Worth a visit but don't get a burger.

Went a week ago last Tuesday. Staff was a 5. We ended up chatting with 4 different staff members. They were great. Among other things, we asked how to get our dog back to their hidden gem if a patio. They said bring them around the building.we went last night without a dog (Thursday night). We parked at the end of the building and went around back to check out our route. One of the 20 or so tacles was taken, so we sat at one of the 19 or more empty tables. The server gave us a half hearted greeting, came over, and let us know we should have come through the front. From the looks of it, they should just be happy for customers, no matter what direction they come from, but I politely explained why we did what we did. She reiterated that we should come through the front. I asked about bringing a dog to the patio. She said, "I don't know, just walk quickly through the restaurant, I guess." Ummm, I don't think your inspector would like that. It was 30 minutes into the Thursday night NFL game before we could get the outdoor TV switched, and that's why we went. Wings and a burger are kind of a strange combo and I don't know if there was any salt in the coleslaw, otherwise the food was fine. Last night's crew gets a 1. Sorry, Tuesday crew, you were great, but we...

I’ve been coming here for a little while now and am never disappointed by the outstanding service I always receive. Tonight was very special in being felt like a truly special guest when I walked in. I was greeted right away by the manager Kris who is always such a caring host when my friends and I come in. I came in to find a new bartender Kristen working behind the bar. She was above and beyond amazing! She made not only me; but every guest at the bar top feel welcomed and loved. Manager Kris was attentive to the needs of not only every guest but her team as well; making sure they were doing well and their tables were taken well care of. All around fantastic experience each time I come in. But there was something special about tonight. Will definitely continue to recommend this bar to...
