High Risk

Buffalo Wild Wings appears in inspection records nine times, starting in 2022. The most recent report on file is from Jan 23, 2026. The high risk label is a heads-up that the most recent visit didn't go well.

Recent visits have produced comparable findings, with counts hovering near two violations per visit.

The pattern that stands out is “stop sale issued on time/temperature control”, which has been cited two times.

Compared to other Boynton Beach restaurants (averaging 79), there's room to close the gap. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
