Middle Eastern Restaurants near Amherst, NY

“Best food ever! I keep coming back“

“Everything is delicious! Shawarma, fluffy falafel, creamy hummus, salads - all amazing. And the nicest, most welcoming staff.“

“Amazing time, staff was extremely friendly and welcoming and the food was honestly to die for. got the butter chicken and Chipotle fries and my grandma and I both absoletely loved it. I live in Buffalo and will stop by whenever im in Fort Erie“

“Came here for the first time last night (a Sunday evening) on a whim. After just one visit, I think I have found a new go-to spot. Was looking for a quick, satisfying meal, and that’s exactly what I got. Staff was super kind and welcoming. The quality of the food was exceptional. I got the beef kebab wrap. It was smaller than expected, but it was insanely flavorful, and the wrap itself was so perfectly crisp. My partner got the chicken Philly sub. I ended up stealing half of it from him because it was so good! (and because my wrap was a little smaller than expected 🤫). The sub roll was, again, perfectly crisp while still maintaining softness. Everything was so fresh and flavorful, and the temperature of the food was absolutely perfect. Can’t wait to return!“

“Everything was closed on Christmas day and this restaurant was a life saver. The food was awesome and fresh, the gentleman who served us was very friendly and passionate about the meals he served. We'll definitely be back all the way from Canada!“

“Come here very regularly with family and co workers. Absolutely love everything, from the atmosphere, to amazing staff and of course the food! I recommend Almaza to everyone and anyone I talk to about searching for new food.“

“I have been here multiple times and the food is always AMAZING. I will recommend this place through and through, no matter what I get I love. The atmosphere is good and you can see other patrons enjoying their food, never any complaints. Absolutely delicious!!!“

“Super tasty? My brother and I came, clean restaurant, super tasty food. I consider myself to be an expert in Yemen Cuisine and this place was A1. Top notch. The best of the best. We got the FAHSA, super good tender lamb, seasoned to perfection and tender. The kofta kabab sandwich is made fresh to order and absolutely is GAS.

This spot is pure gas.“

“You absolutely can't beat the prime location on bustling Elmwood Avenue—it's right in the heart of everything, making it the perfect spot for a convenient meet-up or just doing work on the computer. Stepping inside, the interior was immaculately clean, which instantly made you feel comfortable and welcomed. The service team was fantastic; they were attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever rushing us. Yes, the prices are on the higher end, and it's definitely not a budget-friendly choice, but when you factor in the quality, the inviting atmosphere, and the top-notch hospitality, it was absolutely worth every single penny. We left feeling completely satisfied and would happily return for another special treat!“

“Always fresh, delicious, perfectly spiced! The people are wonderful too!“

“Got some of the most gorgeous grapes I've ever bought. Also the big flatbread is so so so delicious. We heated them up in the oven at 350 for a little under 10 minutes and they were the chewiest, most beautiful bread I've had since my favorite bakery in Cleveland closed. My Mom wants me to bring her and Dad some bread when I visit them in a few months! Oh! And the spice aisle was a genuine dream, I literally never want to buy my spices from Wegmans again because they're so reasonably priced. Buffalo Fresh, I love you 💕“

“Food was awesome. We had fatoush, falafel plate, and something like samosas - fried Phyllo dough like pockets of meat and spices - and Arabic coffee. Service was a little slow, but very friendly. A mix of people were in and out even during the after-lunch hour. There's a little sort of import store inside, which we poked around in but didn't buy anything. I'd like to see them expand the restaurant and start delivery on Skip the Dishes, I'd order every week. We're definitely going back soon.“

“Buffalo Fresh has a vibe of its own. The meat may cost a little more, but the quality is worth it. It’s always fresh, flavorful, and some of the tastiest I’ve found in Buffalo.
They also carry specialty meats like veal (young calf) and sometimes even camel, which you don’t find everywhere.
They also have a nice variety of fruits popular in the Middle East, along with naan, Arabic breads, and plenty of other Middle Eastern groceries. The whole place has a different feel to it.
If you ever feel like taking a quick trip to the Middle East without leaving Buffalo, just stop by Buffalo Fresh.“
