“Everything about Sal’s is amazing. The atmosphere- cozy, welcoming, classic and untouched. Also, everything was very clean. The service- friendly, warm, attentive and helpful. The food- these are the BEST chicken wings I’ve ever had. We had four flavours, all incredible. Garlic parm and medium hot were the best. All come with blue cheese. Couldn’t recommend more! We went here with friends before dropping them off at the airport. Please, go to Sal’s.“

“We had our diaper party here and can’t say enough great things about the experience we had and the staff that helped us. From the very beginning Scott, Beth and the rest of the staff were kind, helpful and very professional. We had been coming here long before it was 16 Ellicott and have to say how great the inside looks, how nice the staff is, how good the food still is even after the ownership change. If you’re looking to host a small party, go out to eat or even meet friends for a drink this is the spot!! We so appreciate everyone who helped make our party such a fun day!“

“Kelly's Korner has been a go-to spot for our family every time we visit Buffalo, we eat there at least once every trip. Their beef on weck is delicious and I've yet to find another place that comes close. It's a dive bar in a good way, the people are nice, the location is convenient, great food, what's not to like?

Try it, you won't be disappointed.“

“Great place, live music, friendly fun staff, owners rock, the food is awesome, burgers, homemade fingers, BBQ bacon wrapped pizza logs and more... its such a great place to check out a band w friends. outdoor patio also“

“I understand the reputation Elmo’s has when it comes to wings. They were cooked perfectly. Nice and crispy but still sauced just right. I do want to try and find just the right combination and they do their double dipped. I think finding just the perfect style to your own makes a huge difference. Also, not sure what it was, but their 7up was just hitting so tight that night.“

“We were a large group that stopped by for drinks and Heather C at the bar was wonderful,“

Look forward to going back! Katie 👍👍🌟“

“Great music, usually no cover. Typical bar food menu. Tables available but service only at the bar.

Parking: Free parking, but not a lot of spaces.

Wheelchair accessibility: Handicap parking spot in front. No steps or impediments to getting into the bar or men's room. No handicap stall in the men's room.“

“Always an Awesome time at Checkers! JP. ;) - ✌ 💚 🎶 - Jammin Jesse 🎶“

“I always have an absolute blast every time I am here. The drinks are delicious and bartenders are absolutely amazing. Their upbeat personality and remembering what I am drinking really made me feel welcome.
They have seating at the bar and a few tables near the bar, and had a band play in the back room which was really interesting. They also have outdoor seating which is great in warm weather.
They offer food which I did not try but everything looked and smelled amazing.
The only negative is it is not handicapped accessible.“

“Went there before a play for dinner at Shea's Buffalo. This place is on the Chippewa bar strip, so we were not expecting much. Walking inside, it looks like a typical party/cocktail bar, brick walls, long bar, and tables opposite the bar with plastic chairs and Formica tables, so you are sitting in the bar. At 5:30PM on restaurant week before a nearby playing of Hamilton, we were the only diner's there (and only 4 others at the bar). Now the good part.... one of the best meals I have had in a long time!!!!! Waitress/bartender was prompt, attentive and friendly. The special for restaurant week that we had was $35 for soup/salad (I had soup), Duck with asparagus, yams, sprouts and and pie for dessert. This meal was fabulous! Perfect portion and perfect flavor. The caramel/peanut butter pie was luscious! On top of all this, we were there during happy hour, so $3 a beer. I highly recommend trying this place to eat, just don't expect a cozy, intimate atmosphere. You won't be disappoints, and you won't be broke.“

“I'm hesitant to post this place because I want it to stay secret. The prices for Friday fish is unmatched for the quality of food and amounts. It's my go to for lent and always ready in 20 minutes. Old style neighborhood tavern looks may be deceiving.“

“great food and friendly staff!“

“This was my First time here! The Food, the Service and the atmosphere were Great! Given, I wasn't here at Prime Time. But I can only imagine that it would be even Better!
I had lunch. Fries were Delicious 😋 as was the B.L.T!“

“The service was especially good today; and they have their hands full due to the Bills game. Our server, Madison, was terrific... as was my Rachel turkey sandwich (Highly recommended).“

“Fantastic pizza logs and beef on weck!“

“had a chance to stop in at Lumbejacks patio grill. menu is your usual grill menu - burgers, sandwiches, fish, salads, hot dogs, fries, ice cream. all very good. you order at counter and they will bring you your food. we waited for our order a bit longer than expected. but that was because the place was hoppin'. what impressed me though was the young kitchen cooks and counter staff and how they worked their butts off. the crew was movin' and groovin'. i appreciated their hustle.“

“The Cobblestone is the best place to hit before or after an event at Keybank Center. The pizza and wings are to die for!! Staff is super friendly and attentive!! If you haven't been, you don't know what you are missing!“

“I went to raintree yesterday for the first time and I will definitely be back to try the food! I just went for a few drinks with a friend and I have to say the bartender was so friendly and welcoming. We chatted for a bit and had a few laughs. The people that sat next to us ended up being very sociable and had some great conversations. Its nice to know you can walk into a place and be treated like you been a regular. Thank you and I will be back!“

“Very accommodating - we truly appreciate their hosting our event there!!!“

“Can’t go wrong people are nice , all ages“

“I had my daughter's birthday party at Northtown center during an open skate on short notice. The Skybox owner was very accommodating, and set us up in their private party room for pizza and cake. It overlooks the main ice rink which was great. The staff was very helpful and the pizza and wings were tasty. Thanks again!“

“Got stranded at Christmas 2022. This hotel staff is absolutely amazing!! Very accommodating, super helpful. Other hotels are running out of food and these guys are making breakfast and a dinner for everyone. It’s truly an amazing crew. They are stranded with us and dealing with all the stress yet have a smile on their face!! A can not recommend this place enough, just because of the staff. Merry Christmas and thank you so very very much!!!“

“My experience at Betty's was most Devine. The staff are friendly and very helpful especially Amanda. I had an amazing roast beef sandwich with a crunchy juicy pickle.“

“They have the best wings in Western New York and their pizza is second only to Bocce's. The prices are just an added bonus.“

“I alway enjoy whatever cocktail I get from Ballyhoo, and my last visit there was no different. One of the best bars in town in my opinion with very reasonably priced drinks and excellent customer service. Not a very large bar space, but definitely worth checking out. They do serve a limited food menu as well, but I have not tried any yet.“

“First and foremost, I want to praise the Manager, Nicole, for her outstanding service! She went out of her way to make everything right. She really is a one in a million. The wings were DELICIOUS and the sauce was incredible! Your company is really lucky to have Nicole and I hope she never leaves!“

“Delicious food, friendly staff, clean restaurant and restroom. We have travelled far to eat at your restaurant and it was all worth it ❤️“
