Ps. I'm from Cape Cod I know shrimp”

“I wanted to go someplace different for my "Belated" Birthday Dinner and I was in the mood for Italian. I needed Pasta . So, I looked on YELP & decided on "Carrabba's". I am so glad I did !!! My son & I got there around 6pm and had about a 10-15 minute wait. There was a bar to the right & most of the dining was to the left. It was clean & had a comfortable feel inside. We were seated & I had already planned what I wanted to eat the night before, so I wouldn't take forever deciding once I got there. But first, we were served delicious, soft, warm Italian bread . It was so good. We ended up getting it 3x I believe. Our waitress's name was Ashlie S. She was great !!! Very nice, friendly, helpful, funny & very easy to talk to. I order the LINGUINE POSITANO WITH CHICKEN, I got the MAMA MANDOLA'S SICILIAN CHICKEN SOUP & the CANNOLI CAKE FOR 2 for dessert. Everything was phenomenal !! The pasta was so light but with a burst of amazing flavors ! The soup was so good & with huge pieces of chicken in it. Yummmmmmy !! The Cannoli Cake was very good & because my birthday was yesterday, Ashlie gave me a few scoops of vanilla ice cream with syrup & a little birthday candle in it. She was so sweet. Everything was just perfect ! I had an amazing experience here tonight . I found the prices to be reasonable , at least for what I got. We had quite a Long waiting time to get our food, but it was soooo worth it ! They have a special deal going on. I don't know if it's temporary or always going on, but it is a great deal. Whatever the price of something you order for in the restaurant, you take home ANYTHING for less for $10.00. No matter what the regular price. I took home another Linguine Positano,but without the chicken. So now I have an amazing lunch & dinner for tomorrow, since I didn't even finish my pasta there. We also received extra fresh bread to take home. 100% satisfaction on the trip. Also, the ladies room was very clean & smelled good. (That never happens ) I will most definitely be returning to this Carrabba's & I hope I get the wonderful Ashlie S. as my server again. She was full of life, unlike a couple others I saw that looked like they were ready for bed. lol”

“Food is amazing and our servicer was knowledgeable on wines!”

“Delicious Eggplant Parm but for 20 bucks or so it really should come with a salad or veggie side. Comes with an Olive Garden style bread stick. It also comes with a LOT of spaghetti!! 🍝 I got extra sauce for $3 because sauce!! I love their sauce. Sometimes I order a quart for $8 because it's delish and have it a couple of nights with my own pasta for dinner.”

“Such a great spot! Hands down the best seafood in Buffalo, NY. The service is fast and unique with the help of their serving robots, which makes the experience even more fun. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. On top of that, their boba is delicious, the perfect sweet treat to go with the meal. Definitely a must visit if you’re in the area!”

“Blue Bull is a great casual bar with great food & great atmosphere”

“My husband and I have always enjoyed the great food and drinks at Jazzboline, and the waitstaff consistently provides excellent service. Recently, I had the pleasure of throwing a surprise birthday party for my husband there, and I can't say enough about how helpful Mike Overdorf was! He answered all my questions and made the party planning process seamless, from selecting the drink menu to choosing the meals, even including little boxes of chocolates as a special touch. During the party, the waitstaff, Michelle and Sara, were gracious, kind, patient, and attentive throughout the celebration.”

“Went to the Amherst NY location for my birthday on September 30th, our waitress Rachel was fantastic! She’s extremely personable, knowledgeable and caring. The manager is also excellent. My hubby ordered a blooming onion that Rachel reordered on her own, the second one was perfect! The manager even came out and spoke to us. We weren’t and didn’t complain at all but they made sure our visit was memorable and it was. I highly recommend this location, food, service and staff was excellent! Thank you for a wonderful experience 😊kudos to The Outback Amherst, NY staff!🎉”

“Bad bad experience. I was served and finished my dinner before my wife got any of what she ordered. Flagged down several people with restaurant uniform on and was totally ignored. Asked for the bill and waited ten minutes before I had to flag down a person to pay. We’ll never go back, ever!!”

“My first hot pot was a bit intimidating but that was short lived! Food is fresh and delicious, service was super helpful and attentive, everything was immaculate and really comfortable! Can't give them 5 stars because it's my first one! I'll definitely go back, and very reasonable too!”

“I was staying in Amherst for a conference and had a nice experience at the Blue Fire Grill in the Marriott. Everyone was very friendly and the food was okay.

Parking: Huge hotel parking lot”

“Great atmosphere and staff. Been coming to this location for 5 yrs. and will continue coming. Thank you!!!”

“Thank you Insomnia Cookies for delivering this sweet treat to my daughter on her birthday! 🍪 🥳”

“It was good .

What we tried -
1. Some variant of loaded fries (4/5)
2. Paneer makhani large bowl with basmati rice (3/5)

Paneer bowl was slightly disappointing because of blandness of the paneer .”

“Amazing food! little pricey but so worth it.”

“Walking into this bakery and seeing that I could eat ANYTHING that I wanted -- that I didn't have to be scared that I'd get sick, that I didn't have to limit myself to just one or two items that might not even be what I wanted -- y'all, I almost started crying. Just the relief of it, and knowing that someone cared enough to turn their entire bakery gluten-free. That means so much more than you can imagine. And the food was so good that we went here three times during our week-long stay in the area. In fact, we plan to order from them and have it shipped to us now that we're back home. Highly recommended!”

“A place for cookie lovers that the decoration of the cookies are special. The new confetti cake looks yummy. They only offer takeaways and no seating for dine in or during waiting.”

“10/10 best banh mi in buffalo.”

“Best food ever! I keep coming back”

“Their sides are horrible fried rice is white rice fried with soy sauce they have yellow rice no soy sauce. That's not how it's made. The wedges are dried out and flavorless the most of the main dishes are good. I did choose a nasty main dish but the hot bourbon chicken is the best. The pork eggs are OK a little fatter than any Chinese restaurant I've seen. It's not the best food but this is the best Chinese takeout I've seen in Amherst. Other places are much worse. Good price too for what you get”

“Consistently good food with excellent service. We stopped for dinner Tuesday evening. Hot and sour soup was just the way I like it, egg roll was a little crispy but still good. Generous portions of chicken and vegetables and chicken and eggplant. Well cooked but not as spicy hot as we've come to expect. Enough food that we brought leftovers home. Been here many times and always found them dependable for good food and excellent service”

“The food was outstanding! Service amazing! Beautifully remodeled, my husband and I will definitely be back ????”

“When I visit Buffalo, I always have to stop in for Duffs wings. I was there today 2-27-2024 with friends from high-school”

“Food was great. Seating area needed attention. Tables very messy”

“tried it for the first time today. I have to say I wish I would have tried it earlier. great food that's filling and great staff. we will be visiting again.”

“We have been in Buffalo 10 days. This is by far the best food we had so far. We will be back.”

“Came and ordered a take away, wish I would have stayed bc the vibe looks so nice and quite! The chicken is so tender and crispy! Would love to try more stuff from their menu, also they had gloves, chopsticks, soy sauce and ketchup u can grab and take for yourself to go 🙏🏻❤️ thank you so much for the tasty food.”

“Anderson's Frozen Custard is a buffalo classic that might not be the home of the original Beef on Weck, but they sure know how to make a good one. Alongisde one of their shakes and a side of fries, it's a great spot to have a meal with a bunch of friends.”

“I won't say it was a bad experience but there is always a room for improvement. Biryani was really good. A bit disappointed with bihari boti. Service was good staff was also friendly and professional.”

“Second time here! Great service, the place is super clean and organized, the food is fresh! Tim is super friendly and great costumer service! Thank you Tim we will definitely come back again!”

“Food was incredible! Service was incredible but what topped it off was the cook (Quran) was finishing his shift and on his way out stopped at our table where my son was sitting with a broken leg. He said “hope you feel better man” as my wife replied that it happened at football. Quran turned to my son and said “if you fall, you just have to get up stronger”
GREAT STAFF at this location!”

“I really like the pizza and wings here and it is very close and convenient. Usually I end up having to ask for light cheese on my pizza and extra sauce and that way it is perfect! I find that 90% of the time their pizza is great but sometimes they can be slightly inconsistent ive noticed as I order from them very often. Other than that their pizza and wings have great flavor id recommend asking for the wings to be extra crispy too! My favorite thing from here would probably be the fried ravioli! Great place for pizza, wings, or any other game day snacks or food!”

“It is one of my favorite these days.
Pro:
1. It is very cheap, I mean averagely you only spend $20 or even less for one dish. And good portion.
2. It is a classic Chinese flavor, not too spicy, not overly sweet. Just good.
Cons:
1. It is quite small. You may need to wait long if you come at rush hour.
2. Not many choices, I order like 15 dishes one time and that's basically everything they have

Cheap, good taste, and really warm service. I have to say I don't usually pay extra tips. But this is an exception. I hope they have good business.”

“Great taste! I got a mango bubble tea with milk and was delicious. My tiramisu was a bit frozen and was kind of hard to cut it at first. But I just had to wait a little and enjoyed it. I recommend!”

“My boys loved the cookies we bought at the Kenmore Farmers Market today! Thank you! ❤️”

“It was really easy to order online and the delivery was made when they emailed me that it would. The food was very good also. Will be keeping Franco's in mind next time I don't want to cook.”

“Food was good as always; waiter was overwhelmed and we didn’t receive the great service we usually receive.”

“Favorite food is Greek. I can’t wait to go back so I can get a box full of Greek food so I can have breakfast and or lunch the next day!And I will order a rice pudding to go home too!!! I can’t wait to go back!!”

“Great service tonight, we had a party of 13ppl. Waitress was patient and kind. Food as always was great. The Waitress knew I wasn't fond of raisins so I got my rice pudding raisin free.”

“First timer here. Wife surprised me for my birthday with a nice little selection. These are absolutely delicious. Carrot cake is very good. Lemon is good too. Churro is fantastic blueberry lemon was great too.”

“Endless fries soda refills All around great place”

“My daughter and I went here for the first time today and it was GREAT!

First of all, the place was nice and clean. The staff was super friendly, efficient and just great.

And then the food. It was quickly made, warm and delicious and NOT a rip off.

Two regular customers were made today.”

“amazing food. great atmosphere and fantastic wait staff. I had the Western Cheddar omelet and it came with 3 full sized pancakes. delicious!”

“We come in town and it is one of our first stops. Never disappoints and is always clean. Staff was great. Nothing has changed since the first time I went in back in the 80’s.”

“Heck ya baebi this place be poppin and lockin, I dig it yo”

“To experience with my food 18$ I not believe it”

“Service was relatively attentive but tipping is mandatory and is set at a high amount. Food was very good and came in large portions. Does get pretty packed since the restaurant is small when it’s dinner hours.”

“THANK YOU so much for your generous donation to Our Lady of Peace church’s Wines Around the World Event. We greatly appreciate your donation. With out your support we could not help the Breast Cancer Network, Sleep in Heavenly Peace and St. Lukes. Support Local Businesses!”

“The atmosphere of the coffee shop was cool but it was in the middle of Whole Foods so it was definitely busy. The guy working there was nice but he was the only one working so it took a while for him to finish our drinks which was ok because we got to purchase some pastries and bagels (which was better than average). The drinks we got were good, nothing special. I got the brown butter cookie latte tasted almost like a normal latte just a little sweeter. Overall a pretty good place to have coffee!”

“This is hands down the best Tim Hortons I’ve been to. I go here all the time as I work nearby. The staff is extremely helpful, friendly, and efficient. My order is always correct and everything taste’s consistently great. :)”

“The food is good. I love the mozzarella sticks and the 1/2 pound roastbeef

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu

Wheelchair accessibility: Big place plenty of room to maneuver around”

“went here for the first time and satisfied my craving for a burger and fries! can't find fresh cut fries at very many places... would go again when I get another craving...very tasty 😋”

“Thank you Soooo much!! December 27, 2022 at 2:00 Very few restaurants open. Gail was great!!! Friendly, professional and efficient! Great to find you open. Our first time out after the driving ban and she was perfect! Glad to find you open and serving. Food was delicious and coffee was needed. I would hope management knows what a person like Gail is worth . Priceless to us :-) Lynn & Rick Lent Kenmore, NY 14217”

“We had a fabulous time today! The drinks & food were superb! We will be back! Thank you”

“Pizza was really good, service was great, however the cleanliness of the restaurant is lacking and generally pretty bad. Actual dirt covering areas of the floor and some surfaces. Bathrooms are almost gross.”

“I love this special family also... great picture”

“I would drive a hundred miles for her.”

“There are treasures within this unassuming building on the corner of Sweet Home and Sheridan. Most of the negative reviews here seem to be for the AmeriChinese classics -- order what you want -- and the glowing reviews all seem to be for the harder to find dishes. I am in the latter camp. The collagen they extract for their noodle soups make for an exquisite broth that absolutely sets up overnight in the fridge. Their lamb dishes are also wonderful, albeit perhaps impossible to order on their website. Go in with a group and try some specials. They are, indeed, special.”

“My only concern is the fact that the employees take up all of the parking spots. They should park in the rear of the building where they have a door that is not accessible to the patrons.”

“The BEST Chinese food I’ve ever had! If you are even considering ordering Chinese food, order from Golden Wok. The rice is authentic and flavorful. The orange chicken and General Tso’s chicken are saucy with the perfect amount of spice, flavor, and veggies. The crab rangoons are crispy perfection and the egg rolls are crunchy and delicious. The portion size is enough to have leftovers and the food is so good that I don't ever want to order from any other Chinese food restaurant. Find your favorite dish and give it a try because you will not be disappointed.”

“First time would definitely recommend the food was awesome 🤩”

“The absolute best pepperoni (well done double pep) pizza in the Buffalo area. Crust has fabulous texture and flavor. Sauce is good, not overwhelming. The pepperoni crisps up and isn't wafer thin.
I no longer live in the area but when there I take a few home with me.”

“I constantly earn free drinks. I love this place.”
