Restaurants in Buffalo

“I haven’t found an authentic Mexican restaurant in Minnesota until now. So glad we came during Independence weekend to have delicious Chiles en Nogada, traditional well prepared sopes and awesome shrimps. Dessert was no different: pineapple coconut ice cream as part of churros plate. In summary, amazing food!!!”

“I grew up going to BJs have loved so many dishes, sandwiches are always a home run. Even “job shadowed” when I was in highschool for a class. Stopped in today, grabbed the BJs lunch box special and it was amazing. So many fast food places offer “lunch combos” and this box was great for the price! I hope to see it comeback!!”

“A hidden gem! Excellent, authentic food and drinks. Fast, friendly service. Seemingly always busy yet never much a wait.”

“This place is amazing! from sandwiches to soups, salads and desserts! She has made numerous GF desserts for me, Tres Leches, Mexican Hot Chocolate Cheesecake, and most recently an amazing GF Carrot Cake. Highly recommend.”

“Food was amazing! Service was great. We will definitely go back!”

“First time in Buffalo at this tasty mom & pop pizza. Delicious cauliflower and gluten free crust-the freshest ingredients, excellent service! The food was amazing! Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️We will definitely stop here again.”

“Amazing place! Great food, great atmosphere, and great service, even down to the table bussers! Everyone there is always so nice & friendly! A+”

“Very friendly staff and great food,I definitely recommend this place.”

“Good service, excellent burgers!”

“UPDATE- went back to give them another chance as they had recently opened during my first visit- and it was fabulous!!! Great job, great to have my Jersey Mikes back!!!!- see updated photo

Don’t get me wrong, I love jersey Mikes, not sure if they just reduced their meat portions since opening this new location- but I didn’t spill a drop of meat out of my Philly it was that small, some areas in my sandwich had no meat at all, just bread - is this across the chain? I don’t think I’ll be retuning for more bread than meat sandwiches”

“Had not been to this restaurant for awhile and were pleased with the overall experience. Liked the dining room environment and the friendly, attentive server. Food was good and the special for the evening was an excellent value.”

“Great recommendations!!!”

“Great service and clean restaurant, please stop and see them.”

“The food is amazing.. my family loves this place. Hands down one of the best places for Mexican food.”

“This is a great stop just off the lake. They have amazing Bloody Mary's and the price is great for what you get. We never order food if we get the big Bloody Mary. Service is great and the outdoor deck is awesome on a nice day.”

“I love the ice cream there. except the vending machine at the St. Michael location. we have gone 5 times this passed year and 3/5 times it has eaten my money and not dispensed the ice cream. we put in the exact amount ($6.50) and it wouldn't dispense ANY ice cream. we went tonight, wouldn't grab any ice cream and would not give us back our $1.50. I wouldn't care if this was fixed but it's been an ongoing issue.”

“Dietary restrictions: The owners are interested in what customers want. They would want to assist you to see what you would need. They are passionate and hard working and want the food to be tasty.”

“Still the best fast food burgers available! We stop at the Buffalo A&W whenever we are passing through town.”

“Delicious pizza as always, very timely and friendly service and clean store. Always plenty of parking here too! Love that they offer coupon codes on the instructions once you fill out a brief online survey. Lately it seems like they’ve been worth 25% off of any purchase of $25 or more, I believe. The “Gourmet Vegetarian” (with some customizations) is our favorite pizza here, by far!”

“Delicious and great place. They have the best friend chicken, and I personally think they’re club sandwich is worth getting over and over. Amazing and attentive staff.”

“The experience and service at the Caribou inside Coborns in Buffalo was great today I'm definitely going back.

Wheelchair accessibility: Nice and big easy to move around.”

“lacy our server is fantastic, all in our party of 10 loved their breakfast! Great service and food. Will be back for lunch &/or dinner”

“Great ambiance and drink list!! We love Muffy's Basement and Evelyn's Wine Bar upstairs!! Make sure to check them out!!”

“Anytime I can visit an American Legion I will. Great service and food, even better people working and enjoying the establishment. With family living in town there we make sure tonstop and Thank those how have and are serving”

“Nostalgic staple of Buffalo. Good bourbon selection and great drinks. Friendly owners, knowledgable staff.”

“We go to get the wonton tacos 4:00 to 6:00. Love them. Get them without the coleslaw. My daughter does not like that. I eat the coleslaw she eats the wontons. What a great combo

We always take a batch home”

“Went through the drive thru on my lunch hour on 6/7/24 @ around 1pm. It was somewhat busy. Wait time was about 5-7 minutes. Employee was friendly and fast with service. My Beef Burrito with Ranch was hot and flavorful. The Potato Olès were hot and seasoned perfectly. My overall experience was great and I'll be eating there again..”

“So I’m giving this only 4 stars cause last year we went and some dude toke are order and it was my grandma cousins and brother and me 5 people and we w ordering and he was very rude. food was really good but he was not. And when my brother was ordering he was not taking too long at all. Then the cashier was yelling at him and my cousins. I was not happy about that. And he was mad at my grandma just cause she does not have bad hearing and was asking to repeat what you said. like if you’re going to be treating my family and others like that you need to go. Everything else was good food 10/10. They did have air conditioning which was helpful food was at a reasonable price. I would go again but next time please be kind to others who are paying for your food because some people could be having a bad day or good day and just being rude can mess up someone’s day. But when I went back this year it was the same guy this time it was my Sibling and my grandma and me. He was more kind respectful which I was happy that my brother was happy but remember kindness is a gift everyone can afford Otherwise I would eat here again

Kid-friendliness: Kind people this time”

“There’s something of a paucity of fine dining options in Buffalo, but I remembered that my late father, Charles LeRoy Nelson, Jr, always raved about a restaurant at the Buffalo golf course. So I researched it, and I think he must have been referring to Hilltop Bar & Grill at Wild Marsh Golf Club. So we went there on Friday, May 3rd, 2024 for dinner. I’m happy to report that this restaurant has earned the highly coveted Eric Carlisle Nelson Esteemed Diner Recommendation. My key observations follow:

1. They do not accept reservations. However, we got a table right away when we arrived at 6:10pm on a Friday — albeit the last table available.

2. While it wasn’t what I would call quiet, the noise level was not bad at all. One could carry on a conversation without raising one’s voice.

3. Host and wait staff were excellent, friendly, and attentive.

4. All of our food was very good. Mee Lee had the beef tacos. I got a side salad and BLT with avocado. (See photos). Nothing was especially fancy, but everything was very fresh and well-made and delicious! The food was unpretentious.

5. The prices were amazingly low, given the high quality of the food, and well worth the price. We ended up with a final bill of only $30, plus tip.

6. The bill could have been higher, but we didn’t have any drinks, because they didn’t have whole milk (or any milk) as a beverage option. This is a demerit, but one that is easily remedied. Every restaurant should offer whole milk. Minnesota is a dairy state, and milk complements every meal!

7. I counted six different customers wearing baseball caps while dining. You don’t have to read Emily Post’s Guide to Etiquette to know that men may not wear hats indoors — and especially not while dining. One of them was a faux “Army” hat, which I thought particularly incongruous, given the fact that Army regulations strictly prohibit the wearing of any kind of hat or “cover” indoors. The restaurant would do well to post this as a rule at the front door. (I would, if it were my restaurant). Manners makyth man!

8. One diner barked loudly across the dining room for his waitress, twice. I looked over to see if he had had too many drinks. I’m not sure what his deal was, but he didn’t seem to realize that he was behaving like a Philistine. I can’t fault the restaurant for this, but it is worth noting.”

“They are always fast, courteous and the drinks taste great! This is just a drive-up location so couldn't rate the atmosphere really. But it's the one I prefer to go to out of the 3 in town. :)”

“I've been to this establishment numerous times since it opened. Most times with fantastic service. 1 exception was the server who kept putting her own spin on the item I ordered off the menu. This made me believe I had ordered the item incorrectly when I had not. The food has always been good and drinks always good. I love this stop on my way home from work.”
