Sometimes birthday celebrations at specific eateries are best not planned, but instead last minute choices. Therefore, my daughter Stefanie's location was chosen as we drove Routes 3 and 46 West, eventually landing us at Rockaway Mall and Buffalo Wings Wings (343 Mount Hope Avenue, 973-361-9464). The Sears family is not a fan of sports bars, and the TVs were "alive" this night, as Monday Night Football and the NBA basketball playoffs were on. We did, however, avoid the bar area and sat on the dining room side of the establishment, therefore somewhat lessening exposure to the broadcasts. It should be noted that when you're in good company (my wife and daughter, in this case), you can focus on discussion instead of the elements. Also, our server Anthony was very cordial throughout our visit, patiently answering our questions about the menu and joining in our conversations occasionally. The Rockaway location is located just minutes from Routes 46 and 80. My food selection for the evening was an All American Double Burger with French fries ($12.99). The "double burger" thing swayed me,. And, yes, as usual, I opted to have it minus lettuce and tomato. Maybe someday I'll leave the healthier stuff in play (nifty sports bar word usage, yes?) when I order any type of burger. Regardless, this was very tasty and, unfortunately, due to photo size, I'm devoid of a visual for this post. Below you'll see my wife Lucille's Buffalo Mac & Cheese ($11.99). An appetizer, she selected this as her entree. The Cheddar-Jack cheese made this a different type of this popular offering, and that's what made it good. Finally, the birthday girl chose a wrap, and Buffalo Wild Wings has a few good available menu choices. The Buffalo Ranch Chicken Wrap ($11.49) also comes with Cheddar-Jack cheese, and house-made tortilla chips. Buffalo Wild Wings was a very nice option, and Anthony was a very nice server.
Would we visit again? Absolutely! Steve
