“Drinks, food, and service were very good. Unfortunately I can’t say the same for the loud music. I couldn’t have a conversation with my group and the club music was not my taste. Sam was great though!”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“Such a Buffalo staple- all their dishes are solid, and none will leave you disappointed. Great wine selection and attentive, friendly service (Terry is the best!). Homemade pasta is to die for (love the pappardelle piemonte and rigatoni genovese); so are the artichokes. Always a great experience all ”

“Had an amazing experience here with 4 of us and a toddler. Service was great, food was out of this world, and the atmosphere was cozy. Can't wait to come back! Had the best French onion soup I've ever had and an Alfredo pasta that I've been dreaming about.”
“Absolutely amazing! 1st class restaurant. Very elegant and romantic setting. The wait staff was top notch. Food was excellent! I can't say a bad thing about the place.Parking: Complimentary valet.”

“Today, was the very first time for my stopping by there, to taste their ribs. Unfortunately, they were out of the ribs, but assured that they would be back in stroke, with them, at 5pm. They allowed me to taste test some of their pulled pork, and it was SO GOOD that I had to buy some. I have NO DOUBT, whatsoever, that their ribs will hold the same 'chef-manship' as their pulled pork. This father and son team not only work such magic at the grill, but are - both - very pleasant individuals, to boot.”
“I had the pad thai with tofu and my husband had the general tso chicken. It was delicious and the portion was huge. We talk about that meal a lot because nothing in our area quite compares. Staff was incredibly kind, food was amazing and fresh. Great Friday night meal.Vegetarian options: I had the pad thai with tofu. A lot of the menu the protein choice is yours so it can be vegetarian!”

“Unbelievably good. Do not sleep on Crenshaw’s! Great food, excellent service. The chicken is flavorful and cooked perfectly, and the honey cajun fries are second to none.”
“Great staff and excellent food. There are always fun new things to try when you visit!Kid-friendliness: The counter is low so it is easy to see most of the items, and the staff is super nice and always very willing to help explain any items.”

“Went in recently and sat down for dinner. Unassuming joint but staff was super kind and food tasted and felt great. Cuisine is classic Mexican food but it’s a step above your typical Mexican spot! Would def recommend.”
“The food is 5 star I want to Jamaica, 3 years ago and Jamaican food was the best food I ever tasted, I was in my glory when when Bratts Hill by Chief Darian opened. Great tasting food”
“Awesome food, ate there today! Being from Texas would highly recommend this place. The food was flavorful and the atmosphere was great. Friendly people and will be going back soon. I would recommend the chicken tikka and cardamon cornbread. Don’t forget the Texas Twinkie!”

“Our cravings for Thai food were definitely satisfied .It’s our 1st time here and will definitely come back . Highly recommended . Amazing Authentic Food ,Bravo Customer Service,Charming Restaurant and Delightful Experience ! Overall experience was definitely one for the books .”
“I’ve been waiting so long for this place to come back. I’m late to the game because I just found out! The chicken udon is just as heavenly as I remember from back in the day. There is a parking lot right next to the building too, which makes everything even better. I had takeout last week, and will be dining in tomorrow night. Can’t wait.”
“Stopped in from a recommendation from the owner of Briar Brothers and it did not disappoint. We loved the vibe, it was definitely a unique space. Beers were really good and extremely reasonably priced. We hung out for a bit and played cards”

“We visited the Dapper Goose during a weekend away to Buffalo. The menu looked delightful online so we made a reservation. We were welcomed warmly as soon as we entered and our drinks arrived shortly after we were seated. We ordered many of the small plates which arrived in 2 parts. My husband raved about the green beans and carrots, which is unusual since he’s more of a meat eater. I loved the octopus. There was not one dish that disappointed. The drinks were inventive, unique and delicious. We loved our visit and will return.”
“I stopped in to dine solo and I do not regret it one bit! I had the tagine and asked if they could put the lamb from the bolognese on the tagine and they very kindly accommodated my request! The tagine was AMAZING! It was so good that it gave me flashbacks to my time in Morocco! It was so good that I decided to get a dessert as well and it also did not dissappoint! The service was fabulous, the bartender was very kind, and the atmosphere was perfect. Next time I'm in Buffalo I'll definitely come back!”

“9 of my friends went for my birthday dinner it was so good we are still talking about how amazing the food was. Service was wonderful as well! We are making plans to visit again soon!”
“Found this place on a Yelp search for Indian food in Buffalo. One final meal before our return trip home. We got there around 4:00 pm on a Tuesday and the place was empty. The server brought us to a table by the front window, which was very nice. We first ordered a Vegetable Samosa to share. The server brought us the dish, which is two nice size samosas that were perfect for sharing one each as an appetizer. The pastry was fried nicely, with each bite starting with a crunch followed by tender inner pastry. The filling of potato and peas was ample. My partner ordered Lamb Curry and I ordered Saag Paneer. My partner liked the heat of her dish (she ordered "medium", one of the two options offered - medium or spicy.). The lamb was cooked nicely and had a good flavor. The curry sauce was nicely spiced, but not overpowering. The Saag Paneer (also ordered medium) included large chunks of paneer and was nicely spiced. I'm thinking that if I had ordered it Spicy that I may not have been able to eat it. This was plenty spicy. The orders came with a large plate of well prepared basmati rice, which we could have requested more of but it was plenty. We also ordered a garlic naan, which was a single naan bread cut into four pieces. Each piece had chunks of garlic throughout and was very good. We told the server that we were just passing through town and probably wouldn't be back in the area. So, we were surprised when he brought the check and gave each of us a complementary serving of rice pudding. I'm not usually a fan of rice pudding because it either doesn't have much flavor or is too watery. This dessert suffered from neither of those things. It was delicious.”
“Loved visiting this space! Very cool vibes and chic decor with gold walls, venetian glass chandeliers, and gitchy stemware. Loved the cocktails and service. Definitely a pre-dinner or nightcap spot. Thank you to Michaela for excellent service and patience and time answering questions. Definitely try the bump, meatball sliders and arancini.”
“Loved what I had I think it was the strawberry Hershey blast or something. It was very rich and delicious!Worker was very kind !They're just starting out so I understand why there's limited amount of drink flavors and stuff.They do have the card thing and u get ur card stamped each time and eventually u get some type of reward which is cool.”
“Bella Ciao (lower level of Embassy Suites - Downtown Buffalo Highly recommend! Excellent service (Isabella our waitress- her first time on her own after training- was excellent!) Food was very good! Homemade pasta- all very good! Management made sure they stopped at every table to check in! Great place!”
“I came in about a week ago for their happy hour and had a great experience! They have a nice happy hour menu, I got a smaller portion of the cucumber salad that was seasoned well and a great portion for an individual app.For my main, I had gotten the burger which was DELICIOUS. The double patty with cheese gives you the perfect bun to meat ratio. Grilled to perfection and seasoned beautifully. The side of potatoes have a great crunch with a wonderfully fluffy interior and an even better side of chimichurri. Quite frankly I’d buy the chimichurri by the jar if I could.Lastly, for dessert I had the olive oil cake. It was nice and light, the brown butter applesauce added a nice balance. The fennel sugar smelled like fennel but was overpowering to the palate. And to top it all off I had a great stout with my meal as well.Overall, great atmosphere with great food to pair. I look forward to returning again.”

Bella Ciao
“Bella Ciao (lower level of Embassy Suites - Downtown Buffalo Highly recommend! Excellent service (Isabella our waitress- her first time on her own after training- was excellent!) Food was very good! Homemade pasta- all very good! Management made sure they stopped at every table to check in! Great place!”
“Food is always good and atmosphere is great. Our server was a very sweet old lady and she took great care of us.This last time I was at Chef's I attended an event that was incredible. It was called "A Taste of Italy" and the location they featured was Sicily. The meal consisted of a four-course food and wine pairing. The first coast was an Arancini balled that was the size of a softball and stuffed with rice, ground beef, and peas, and sat in their red sauce. This was accompanied by a white Grillo wine. It was so good, and more than enough for one person. The second course was bucatini pasta with a red sardine sauce. This course was paired with a Merlot. The sardines were not overpowering and it was so good. I ended up having to take half home because I was already getting full. The third course was grilled swordfish with olives, capers, fresh lemon, and olive oil, with a side of fingerling potatoes. This course was paired with a Biano wine. Incredible, and even though I hate olives, the taste of them on the fish with the rest of the items was perfect. I also took half of the fish home. The last course was a cannoli, and I normally don't care for them, but these were perfect and very delicious. They also included warm homemade bread and coffee at the end. I can't wait for the next event in September, and highly recommend these events if you are a foody like me!”

“I typically frequent the delaware location. Tonight i decided to go to this location instead! This location immediately impressed me. The atmosphere was comfortingand welcoming. Our waitress was timely & considerate of our menu selections. jessica made us feel like a member of the denny’s family. she gave use options regarding our hash browns id never been offered before from other locations. It was warm and cozy inside! extremely comfortable. the food has just been amazing. fresh and hot. some of the best pancakes to ever bless my palate. thank you dennys for opening my third eye tonight.”
“Have a family member in the ER so I stopped here tonight around 7:30 pm. The staff on right now should be commended. Good quick service and their customer engagement skills are top notch in an era when that’s extremely hard to find.”
“Heard a lot about the difficulties in receiving the exact order people places, and never had such an experience. Till lately, I struggled to get the order right and fresh. Anyway, one incident is not a big deal compared to my long successful experience with ”
“The tim hortons on wehrle and Cayuga is my favorite I love the whole staff from every shift the are the most friendly people that you would ever want to meet even on a busy day they always greet you with a ”
“I find the service excellent and the food is fine for what I order. I tend toward the scrambled egg whites and 55+ menu. About once a week I treat myself to breakfast after an early morning workout. it's a great way to get benefit from my aarp card.”
“I order my 4 midiums 2/2 and 2 black coffee every morning , it took about 5-10 minutes average base on the line. So far very impressive the speed of the employees. Would willingly rate 5 ”
“Naveyah, Jenn, and Debbie are always pleasant in the morning. Never any attitude. Just happy and smiling. It honestly makes the start of my day so nice. #2 no cheese, large OJ and some hot picante.”
“We Doordash once a week and although convenient, it is super frustrating that we never receive any condiments that we request. It may seem trivial, but what's the point of a chicken McNugget order with absolutely no sauce? Literally every order that I have placed in the past 2 months has had no condiments. Still order because it's what my 5 year old wants for her treat once a week, but come on McDonald's. Nuggets = sauce”
“The morning crew at this location is amazing. They are super fast and the orders are always spot on and the food is too and they are very polite. Keep up the great job if you are reading this.”
“Food was horrible. Everything was very cold . Burger was very salty. French fries where horrible I wasn't even able to eat them I had to throw them in the trash.”
“Great doughnuts. Not the most friendly staff. We weren't greeted, didn't get asked if we needed help, and had to ask for service when we were ready.Cabinet upfront, let's you see what you're ordering first.”
“The food seems good, I used to work at other McDonald's restaurants, so I generally know how things go there. Can take time for your order, especially when busy, but generally not bad. The only thing is that they need to have the people who take your order be able to communicate without mumbling so bad you can't understand barely anything. Ended up get (2) 4pc chicken nuggets and paid for it WITHOUT KNOWING till I sat down. It was busy so I didn't complain, but seriously, Service Industry = workers who Speak Clearly would help!Also get rid of the "order for yourself" thing! Are you guys gonna pay me or give me a discount for doing their job?? Seriously!! PEOPLE DON'T LIKE THIS!”
“MacDonald's never disappoints! The taste and freshness of their food are simply amazing. Whether it's their juicy burgers or crispy fries, every bite is a burst of flavor.”
“We did a call ahead take out order for 9 people for lunch at the office. They were very efficient with taking the order and it was ready within 45 minutes. I believe I spoke with Thomas at pick up and he was super sweet and offered to help me carry the order out. I personally ordered the candied garlic burger and the flavors were incredible! No complaints from anyone regarding any of their orders!”
“Absolutely fantastic family owned business. Food and cocktails are always top notch. We have tried pretty much everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. The warm potato salad is a must along with everything else. Don't forget the Guinness chocolate cake! Everyone is friendly and the service is great. We will be back (many times)!”
“Went there this week while attending a film festival. Hands down one of my favorite dining experiences. The food is TOP NOTCH. Had the Margherita pizza and Macaroni Al Forno. Tried my girlfriend’s meatballs. All Unreal. Also, Felix is one of the best owners and the care and love at this place was amazing to see. Can’t wait to visit Buffalo again just to eat here again!”

“Amira’s Kitchen is fantastic!!! We got the manssaf and it was delicious! The meat fell of the bone and the sauce paired with it was amazing. Highly recommend !”
“What a wonderful place to visit.The gentleman at the front was patient with us (being our first time) and made really good recommendations. He even came by during our meal to check if we were enjoying.The food was "wow". Absolutely loved it all.Will highly recommend if you are nearby.”
“Very few places nail every part of the experience but this place does. Food was amazing. They mill their own flower in house and you can see them do it. The baked goods are fresh and delicious. The coffee was some of the best I’ve had. The service was top shelf. They had a line on a busy Saturday morning but they moved it quickly and it never affected the quality of the service”
“By far the best Nashville style chicken in WNY and better than a lot I've had outside of Nashville. Ridiculously crispy and juicy at the same time. Fries are top tier too. Always recommended.”
“I usually don’t write reviews however this place deserves a 10 star review. The food is Instagram worthy and delicious. I will probably dream about how good the food was and this restaurant will officially be my weekly go to place. Great vibes, great food, great staff! I highly recommend stopping by!”
“This place is great! I called in the order for pickup and got one medium chicken shawarma and one medium falafel. The owner was pleasant over the phone and in person. Both wraps were fresh, hot and delicious. The shawarma is excellent though the falafel was my favorite. Give this place a try, you will not be disappointed!”
“Had an amazing experience here with 4 of us and a toddler. Service was great, food was out of this world, and the atmosphere was cozy. Can't wait to come back! Had the best French onion soup I've ever had and an Alfredo pasta that I've been dreaming about.”
“This is a small, modest business with a ton of potential to grow in the future because of the quality of their food. I’ve had their food quite a few times since they opened and it’s always been fantastic. Give it a try and I think you will have a good experience.”
“Stopped in from a recommendation from the owner of Briar Brothers and it did not disappoint. We loved the vibe, it was definitely a unique space. Beers were really good and extremely reasonably priced. We hung out for a bit and played cards”
“The service was phenomenal and the food was some of the best I’ve had in Buffalo! If you’re looking for authentic Colombian food, then this is the place to go.”
“Tonight was my first time ordering from Kensington Pizza. Wow, be it's so so delicious. I'll definitely order from there again. Crust perfect. Sauce perfect.”
“For diners, this is a great place for breakfast or lunch (close at 3p daily). Great food, great service. No frills but when looking for a diner experience, this place will give it to you. Street parking and parking lot parking available.”
“I come from out of town at least 2x per month, and have never been disappointed. The live music is excellent, the staff and customers are very friendly and outgoing. Food is always good, and reasonably priced”
“I doordash here all the time, the food is phenomenal. The pan fried sesame chicken dumplings are perfectly balanced and delicious. The sambal ones are nice and spicy. Today i went in for the first time and the woman who took care of us was so kind and incredibly sweet. she was also very efficient! absolutely come here !!!!Vegetarian options: They have dumplings with tofu, mushroom, and cabbage with assorted flavors and types! ◡̈”
“First time at this location last weekend and it was as delicious as expected! We ordered the chicken Cobb salad for our 5 year old daughter and she loved it. I had the chicken bacon ranch sandwich and my husband the chicken finger sub. Everything was perfect. Will definitely be back when we’re in the area again!”
“Simply put, we love this place. The food and drinks are consistently high quality. The atmosphere is quiet, minimal, and relaxed.The chef is excellent. He curates interesting rotating menus with adventurous flavors, textures, and platings. He accommodates dietary restrictions very thoughtfully, without lazy substitutions.The space is well-kept, and the team is great, very diligent, and knowledgeable.The bartenders are the best in Kenmore, hands down. If you have the pleasure of participating in the prix fixe, you'll likely experience a well-thought out pairing.Prix fixe isn't the only option. You can pop in for a quick drink and snack at the bar if there is room.Vegetarian options: You can get a prix fixe vegetarian meal.Dietary restrictions: The chef can accommodate dietary restrictions thoughtfully.”
“The service from start to finish was excellent. Cocktails were impeccable! Had a great time enjoying dinner at the bar. Great job! Looking forward to returning for steak!”

“What a great accident this ended up being! Not only did we spend 1 1/2 hours with our dining experience, we progressed to the bar to enjoy a few more drinks. Molly, Kate, and Casey were very accommodating. The food and how it was all prepared...omg... genius with the ingredients. Every attention to detail! I mean, when the whipped cream on the creme brule is infused with lemon, grapefruit, and vermouth... who does that? This place is special on our list!”

“The pub grub at the Irish Center is excellent as is their fish fry's on Fridays! A good place to eat and have a few cocktails! The bartenders are very friendly and make sure your drinks & pints are always full!”
“I had accidentally placed an online order at a wrong location. I was totally stuck not being from the immediate area. Justin the manager understood my situation and handled it quickly for me.Customer service like this is RARE these days. That man deserves his kudos.”
“Had a great breakfast today. Our server Zoey was awesome. Great service, excellent food. Perfect place to meet friends and have a good meal. It was my first time there but definitely will be back !”
“It’s a decent place. But for sure could use a lesson in customer service. They seem to be bothered having to wait on you. They find “busy” work to do as you stand there waiting to place your order. Makes it kinda uncomfortable to stand there”
“Below is a comment about a plastic cup and a refusal to not put ice ream in cup. Grow up Your Petty and ridiculous. No other problems Exist in your life get real”
“This location has great customer service! They are so efficient and your order is always perfect. Even at the busiest of times they always give you a friendly greeting and their kindness always makes my day!?”
“A group of us came here for Eid today and it was the perfect place for us to sit down and enjoy a great meal and celebrate Eid! We ordered the chicken tikka bryani, reshmi kebab, nihari and chicken handi, garlic naan, roghni naan, parathay and regular naan as well as sweet lassi and mango lassi. The woman who runs the place was generous enough to give us mango lassis as Eidi too (complimentary) that made our experience even better! The restaurant was clean and well decorated! We ordered a medium level of spice, and while personally for someone who cannot deal with spices I would prefer mild (I would recommend this if someone does not want spicy food), my friends did quite enjoy it! I really really enjoyed the naans and parathas! The food tasted great but due to my spice intolerance I could not enjoy it as much, but the raita and chutney certainly helped! The lassis, especially the mango lassi, were cool, sweet and refreshing. I would definitely love to come here again! Also, the Pakistani decor, clay dishes and utensils and even the cool van outside really added to the ambience :)Dietary restrictions: Has halal food and vegetarian options too”
“They always have a line sometimes very long but it doesn't take them much time to get you your order, incredibly huge selection slightly complex, prices are very fair ice creams are huge.”
“Typically this location gets very busy. Of the 4 locations within 2 mile radius it is my favorite location. It's the only one of the 4 that makes my coffee right. Drive thru staff are usually friendly.Parking: Given size of location there is plenty of parkibgWheelchair accessibility: Has handicap parking and wheelchair accessible leading to building”
“We come here all too often! They had a pineapple sorbet that we turned into a pineapple dole whip at home. It was amazing! Their coffee ice cream, ALSO GREAT! Can’t go wrong with mint chip. Honestly, can’t go wrong at all! Staff is super sweet. And there’s photos across the back wall of littles, it’s too cute. Definitely come check out!”
“I like this place, and have been going to this location since it opened in like 2002. Now they just need to get that big, self-serve Coke machine, with all the different combinations of pop and water in it, and I'll like it even better!”
“This location is known for serving a variety of treats such as ice creams, Blizzards, sundaes, and fast food items. It's a part of the Dairy Queen Grill & Chill system, which has a reputation for its combination of hardworking people and great-tasting food and treats. The store offers amenities like credit card acceptance, mobile ordering, delivery, gift cards, and outdoor seating.Dairy Queen, one of the largest fast-food chains specializing in ice cream and frozen treats, has a rich history that dates back to 1940. The first Dairy Queen store was opened in Joliet, Illinois, by entrepreneur John Freemont "J.F." McCullough, his son Alex, and their friend Sherb Noble. They developed a unique soft-serve recipe two years earlier and decided to open Dairy Queen following its successful trial at Sherb's ice cream shop.The initial store in Joliet was primarily a place to buy ice cream and refreshments, with no seating for customers. Instead, people were encouraged to take their treats home or eat them on the go. This concept of a quick-service ice cream establishment was new and rapidly gained popularity.Dairy Queen began expanding through a franchise system just a year after its inception. By 1947, the number of stores grew to 100, and by 1953, Dairy Queen had crossed the borders into Canada with a franchise in Melville, Saskatchewan. In the 1950s and 1960s, Dairy Queen became a staple of social life in small Midwestern and Southern towns in the United States, often featuring in stories and memoirs about small-town America.A significant milestone in their menu development was the introduction of the Blizzard in 1985. This new product, combining soft-serve ice cream with candy mix-ins, was an instant success and became a hallmark of the Dairy Queen brand.Over the years, Dairy Queen has continued to grow and evolve. As of the mid-2010s, there were more than 6,400 Dairy Queen stores in over 25 countries, with the majority in the United States. The company became International Dairy Queen, Inc. (IDQ) in 1962 and was later acquired by Berkshire Hathaway in 1998.Dairy Queen's menu has also evolved over the years, from the introduction of malts and shakes in 1949, banana splits in 1951, to the Dilly® Bar in 1955. The Brazier® concept, which introduced an expanded fast-food menu, was launched in 1957. Today, Dairy Queen's offerings include a wide range of frozen treats, fast food items, and specialty items like the Blizzard and GrillBurgers.”
“The food is great but the service is not wonderful. When you go into the store, you have to wait 5 to 10 minutes to be taken care of. That is the only inconvenience.Wheelchair accessibility: It has wheelchair accessibility.”
“Great food. I really like this chain overall. They are a bit pricey but the quality and quantity are worth the price. Also make sure to sample their salsa choices! A word of caution, plan the time of your visit or be prepared to wait!”
“My nephew had his swimming championships at a highschool around the corner. He wanted some Mexican food so we went here. It was about 8pm and they closed at 9. They still managed to take out table of 8 without any issues.”
“We visited Blue Cave Restaurant for the first time! Everything was amazing. Their craft cocktails were delicious. Food presentation was beautiful and the taste was superb. Our serve was attentive but not overbearing. They have menu items labeled for gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian. Highly recommend.”

My husband raved about the green beans and carrots, which is unusual since he’s more of a meat eater. I loved the octopus. There was not one dish that disappointed. The drinks were inventive, unique and delicious. We loved our visit and will return.”
“One of my favorite places in Buffalo. Their martinis and old fashions are a classic but somehow they manage to make them better. The ambience is great, we always have a good time whether it's sitting by the bar or getting a table for bigger groups.The bar tenders and servers are so friendly and really know the menu and know what to recommend. Amazing place any day of the week”
Fine Dining
“Simply put, we love this place. The food and drinks are consistently high quality. The atmosphere is quiet, minimal, and relaxed.The chef is excellent. He curates interesting rotating menus with adventurous flavors, textures, and platings. He accommodates dietary restrictions very thoughtfully, without lazy substitutions.The space is well-kept, and the team is great, very diligent, and knowledgeable.The bartenders are the best in Kenmore, hands down. If you have the pleasure of participating in the prix fixe, you'll likely experience a well-thought out pairing.Prix fixe isn't the only option. You can pop in for a quick drink and snack at the bar if there is room.Vegetarian options: You can get a prix fixe vegetarian meal.Dietary restrictions: The chef can accommodate dietary restrictions thoughtfully.”
“The service from start to finish was excellent. Cocktails were impeccable! Had a great time enjoying dinner at the bar. Great job! Looking forward to returning for steak!”
“Such an excellent experience! The food was to die for. We were celebrating three peoples birthdays at once and Genevieve was nothing short of spectacular! Thank you so much Genevieve and the staff of Angeline. We will be back!”
“Listen this was an amazing experience! From service, the caesar salad, mac & cheese, fries, and the steak it was phenomenal! I also ordered a lemon drop martini (not pictured) it was so good until I ordered another one. Will go back again.”
“Phenomenal! I had heard amazing things about Hutch's for years and finally made it in for a surprise birthday dinner from my friends. Each and every one of us absolutely loved and raved over our meals and drinks. Some of the freshest oysters and a delicious meatball to start our night, with espresso martini's and wine. I had the pork chop special with pear chutney and WOW, the biggest and moist cut of pork I've had with an amazing flavor profile. I had the fruit cookie for dessert and it was absolutely divine. Our server, Amanda, was so friendly and helpful, suggesting apps, working with my friend to find the perfect red wine for her, and even humoring my other friend to pick a meal and surprise her- and she picked well! Good service makes all the difference and we can't say enough about her and the atmosphere here. I have friends who routinely come to Hutch's and all I can say is I've been influenced and hope to return much more frequently! Thanks for an amazing dinner experience to celebrate my 30th!”
“Our dinner was good . However , if Victor Is not there you have a completely different experience. To pay that kind of money in Buffalo is crazy. Hearing his stories and origin of the dishes is why we came back. The last 3 times we went he was not there and one of those times they forgot my husbands entree!!! Nothing was done about it! They gave us his chicken when we were paying the bill. Will not go back . Sorry … this would not happen at Hutch’s”
“I stopped in to dine solo and I do not regret it one bit! I had the tagine and asked if they could put the lamb from the bolognese on the tagine and they very kindly accommodated my request! The tagine was AMAZING! It was so good that it gave me flashbacks to my time in Morocco! It was so good that I decided to get a dessert as well and it also did not dissappoint! The service was fabulous, the bartender was very kind, and the atmosphere was perfect. Next time I'm in Buffalo I'll definitely come back!”

Ballyhoo
“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.”
“Listen this was an amazing experience! From service, the caesar salad, mac & cheese, fries, and the steak it was phenomenal! I also ordered a lemon drop martini (not pictured) it was so good until I ordered another one. Will go back again.”
Cheap Eats
“My mom and I stopped in today and tried the dumplings, spring rolls, drunken noodles, iced thai tea and the lavender lemonade! Everything was absolutely delicious. The Drunken Noodles are SO good. The person who took our order was very helpful and so friendly. There is no indoor seating as there is limited space but picnic tables are available outside for warm weather or you could have a car picnic!! 10/10 recommend Tiny Thai ❤️”
“Place is amazing. Food is always great. Great specials. Portions are always big and the price is reasonable. Staff is just so darn nice as well! I go every week basically!”
“Wow… food was amazing. best chicken sandwich in Buffalo… and the owner was a legend!! A crackhead came in during our meal and caused a disturbance and the owner took care of it properly and promptly!! He deserved an award for being protective of his customers. Food great… service great… and atmosphere also great small little place cool inside.”
“If you want to have some taste of Bangladeshi Local Street Food, you must try here, one of the best Bangladeshi street food in taste, good environment and overall quality.”
“Stopped in for a quick drink after visiting another bar in the area and glad I was able to finally get by here. It’s not a very large place inside, but it was definitely cozy and I was able to get a spot right at the bar. Each day they had a different daily drink special, and their menu consist primarily of empanadas. I tried the beef ones ($10 for two) which were delicious! Definitely looking forward to going back to try more things off the menu, including their many Mojito options.”
“Really good Detroit style. The crust was crispy but light and airy. Really good pepperoni. Myself and two others were full from this six slice pizza pie. I would definitely order ”
“I recently ordered coffee from Unapologetic Coffee, located here in Buffalo, NY. Let me tell you, the coffee is DELICIOUS! I ordered FLOW and HEY DOC. Check them out; you will not be disappointed!”
“I have never been here and I live in the close to this gem. Stopped in for lunch today WOW the staff the food was outstanding. Portions are generous I MADE LUNCH AND DINNER. Fresh, healthy WOW that all I can say!!!. Keep it up!!!!. You should consider franchise”
“Great beer selection. Love their Stouts. Fries with jalapeno queso were excellent and we'll return again for lunch, as food they were serving others looked awesome. Staff was super friendly.”
“Sweet Jenny’s is a staple for our family. We never have a holiday table without chocolate from here. Teacher gifts are a must. Summer ice cream trips making memories! Everything here is amazing, including the owners. If your visiting the Buffalo area this place is a must see, we always bring out of towners here! Thanks for being such an awesome part of our community!”
“Enjoyed the food a lot, not so much the place.I was pleased with them having vegan options!There's not too much parking and the place was absolutely packed out the door, causing me to order to go instead. I wouldn't go back due to how busy it is and the layout being inefficient.Looking forward to the new locations with more parking and better layout!Overall the good food outweighed the chaos inside, so will order take out for a pick up next time!Vegetarian options: There are a few vegan options!”
“Yesterday while at work I was craving some Rasta pasta which happens to be one of my favorite dishes. I normally get it from another place but I haven't been able to in awhile. I went on Uber eats to see who else offered it and @eleven wings and cruisines was the first choice. I've had their food before which was great so I took the chance on ordering their Rasta pasta. The food arrived nice and hot still, even after my driver had another delivery before me. I could smell it through the bag it smelt so good. The food was amazing. I literally had to stop myself from eating because I didn't take a breath yet lol. My friend shares the same passion for this dish as me so I took a picture of it and tagged her. I was happy it came with Texas toast and what really drove me in was the fact they used bowtie noodles instead of the pene noodles that I'm used to. it made the dish so much better. now let's get to the chicken, omg when I say it was seasoned to perfection. I would order the chicken alone that's how great it was. the peppers were fresh and the spices were just right. I love spicy food and hate for a dish to be bland when it's supposed to have a kick to it. the icing on the cake was finding out my friend actually made it when she saw my picture. we all know Danny puts love and soul into her food. they better never let her go because I'll cry lol. now I have to try their entire menu. I will definitely be a regular customer. go try it, I promise you that you will double back so fast, I'm already ready to place my second order today.”
“The best quiche I have ever had. I stopped working just now to write this review because I can’t stop thinking about this bomb quiche. Can’t wait to go back this weekend. 10000/10”
“I was buying baklava from stores that was packaged and was prolly packaged loooong ago! I discovered حلويات و مأكولات بلاد الشام on Facebook and had to go check it out! The owners were so nice and had me sample it! I loved it and how fresh it is too!! Baked fresh! I shared it with my friends and family! They all agree and I’m sure they’ll be going there too for a good taste!”
“Phenomenal poke bowl! Love that you can customize and be as traditional or wild as you want to be. Incredibly fresh and flavorful! Tons of options and a great place to eat the rainbow. The 3 protein bowls are huge and so reasonably priced. Husband got a poke burrito and the Mexican Roll - everything absolutely delicious! Impeccably clean inside and the owners are super sweet and even gave us a little tea mug as a thanks for our order! Will definitely be a regular customer!”
“My husband and I brought our nieces (8, 8, and 12) in at 5:00 on a Saturday, before taking them to Shea’s. The hostess quoted 45-60 minute wait and it ended up only being 15 minutes so we were very grateful. I also love that we were contacted via text when our table was ready so we were able to take the girls back to the car for what we had assumed would be a 45 minute wait.The service was great—Mike was so good to our littles, talking directly to them and being patient, kind, and attentive. Food was great and came out super quickly. Including 2 apps, a beer, and 5 meals we were out for under $130 including a 25% tip. We were blown away with the price, especially given how expensive life has gotten. Happy to share this experience with our friends in real life and on the internet. Thanks, Big Ditch!”

“9 of my friends went for my birthday dinner it was so good we are still talking about how amazing the food was. Service was wonderful as well! We are making plans to visit again soon!”
“Have been here many time and each has been a joy! Love the fresh foods and is a wonderful place to bring friends.Vegetarian options: I personally enjoy the Joy roll, sweet potato roll, and oshinka roll”
“I have been to this restaurant twice and I really enjoyed my experience both times . First of all the menu is outstanding and reasonably priced . That is not counting the specials - new specials are posted on their Facebook page every day ! This past visit my aunt and I ordered two entrees - the chicken inferno (stuffed banana pepper, sweet chili sauce ) and crab stuffed haddock . Entrees come with fresh bread and a side salad. I was able to upgrade to a loaded baked potato for $3 (worth it ) . Food was as delicious as they appear in pictures I posted. Plenty for leftovers . Server was kind and accommodating . Dare I say Rust Belt is one of the best restaurants in the south towns ! Try it for yourself and see if you agree ....”
“I have eaten kimchi from California to Pa but I purchased your's at Hunt county vineyards at Keuka lake and it is by far the best I ever had. I was told to eat it for my health.”

Saint Neri
“Loved visiting this space! Very cool vibes and chic decor with gold walls, venetian glass chandeliers, and gitchy stemware. Loved the cocktails and service. Definitely a pre-dinner or nightcap spot. Thank you to Michaela for excellent service and patience and time answering questions. Definitely try the bump, meatball sliders and arancini.”
“If you're looking for a warm and casual place to grab a fantastic brew, be sure to check out Magic Bear. Whether it's your first time or hundredth time visiting, you'll feel right at home. The owner, Craig, is knowledgable and one of the kindest shop owners you'll meet. If you're a beer nerd, Craig and his staff will never fail to give you a recommendation that matches or expands your palate. If you're not, they'll be just as sure to find something that you like. Definitely check this place out!”
“I’m thrilled to have a Yemeni restaurant in North Buffalo! Great food, prices and service. We enjoyed the tender lamb haneeth (enough for 2), adeni baked vegetables and the baba ghanoush. Can’t wait to go back!”
“We had a fantastic family dinner/reunion at Marco’s last night. The food and service were absolutely amazing. From the apps…to the pasta …and pizza, we left stuffed and happy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️➕”
“Our dinner was good . However , if Victor Is not there you have a completely different experience. To pay that kind of money in Buffalo is crazy.

“No frills interior w / a few booths Friendly staff, always smiling (even behind masks!) lots of vegetarian options. open until 10..fast though often individual preparation,. We love it!”
“All of our food was delicious. my seafood fra di avlo was super good & I had the eggplant stack appetizer it came on a salad with capers & olives with fresh mozzarella & the dressing was excellent. My Wife's food was also delicious. we can't wait to go back to try the rest of the menu!!”
“Stopped in tonight since we has a sweet deals certificate we have been wanting to use ! First off super friendly staff , I felt like I had known them forever ! We took our food home as we both had a long week and everything was amazing ! Can’t wait to come back and try some other items !”
“I had a pot roast sandwich and a big thing of fries. It was sensational, and the service was great! The friend I was with had traditional beef on whack, which he loved. I really enjoyed this place and the next time I am Buffalo, I will seek it out again.”

Marble & Rye
“I came in about a week ago for their happy hour and had a great experience! They have a nice happy hour menu, I got a smaller portion of the cucumber salad that was seasoned well and a great portion for an individual app.For my main, I had gotten the burger which was DELICIOUS. The double patty with cheese gives you the perfect bun to meat ratio. Grilled to perfection and seasoned beautifully. The side of potatoes have a great crunch with a wonderfully fluffy interior and an even better side of chimichurri. Quite frankly I’d buy the chimichurri by the jar if I could.Lastly, for dessert I had the olive oil cake. It was nice and light, the brown butter applesauce added a nice balance. The fennel sugar smelled like fennel but was overpowering to the palate. And to top it all off I had a great stout with my meal as well.Overall, great atmosphere with great food to pair. I look forward to returning again.”

Hutch's
“Phenomenal! I had heard amazing things about Hutch's for years and finally made it in for a surprise birthday dinner from my friends. Each and every one of us absolutely loved and raved over our meals and drinks. Some of the freshest oysters and a delicious meatball to start our night, with espresso martini's and wine. I had the pork chop special with pear chutney and WOW, the biggest and moist cut of pork I've had with an amazing flavor profile. I had the fruit cookie for dessert and it was absolutely divine.

I have friends who routinely come to Hutch's and all I can say is I've been influenced and hope to return much more frequently! Thanks for an amazing dinner experience to celebrate my 30th!”
“Honestly some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had. My fiancé and I just found this restaurant by luck and it made our whole trip! Our server Nicole was incredible and I know our experience wouldn’t have been the same without her. Highly recommend and I know we will be back soon! ☺️”

San Marco
“Such a hidden gem! Went for a family dinner and I would go back in a heartbeat! The Chicken Milanese was excellent as was our dessert! Warm and cozy atmosphere with a large selection of favorites!”
“Was there for a joint birthday party with my buddy. Food was easy to order from Wingnuts and couldn’t believe how fast everything came out of the kitchen. They do take reservations for large parties but make sure you do it a couple days before. Great selection of beers as well. Parking lot is a minefield though. Only negative.”
“Love Duff's wings. Always huge and cooked to perfection. Great service too! Only reason they don't get 5 stars is the prices. They remain very high even though chicken wing costs have come down. Don't go there as often as I used to because of it. Who can afford $2 per wing? Hoping that changes at some point.”

Angeline
“Such an excellent experience! The food was to die for. We were celebrating three peoples birthdays at once and Genevieve was nothing short of spectacular! Thank you so much Genevieve and the staff of Angeline. We will be back!”
“This is the closest thing you’ll get to Michelin star restaurant in Buffalo. I’ve been living in Buffalo for a year coming from NYC and this place definitely has beautiful views, vibes and eclectic Cajun style food.”
“Truly a hidden gem. I used to live in this neighborhood but never knew this place existed. I came here with my friend when they first opened over the weekend. It was pretty empty. There is a small bar when you first walk in. I ordered a blackened catfish po'boy which came with the sandwich, sweet potato fries covered with some sort of honey glaze, as well as slaw. The portion was large but overall, delish. Wish they toned a bit back on the spices on the fish but the fries and slaw were a nice touch. The restaurant got pretty busy quick afterwards. Would def recommend!”
“Yesterday my Gigi and I found this place. We were in town for a dance competition at sheas and didn’t know the restaurants around. We started walking and by the grace of god found this amazing place! First of all the atmosphere is amazing. The staff was friendly. Our server (I wish I had gotten her name) was probably the best server I have ever had. then came the food. Oh my god! The ricotta gnocchi is literally bites of heavenly clouds in your mouth. Moral of story probably one of the best meals I’ve ever had (and I’m picky) this place will now be my favorite restaurant. I will happily travel from Fredonia to come here!”

“Stylish and modern decor matches their creatively satisfying culinary experience. The small but flavorful menu is seasonal but you won’t leave a morsel for the dishwasher to rinse. 4 stars. We will be back in the fall”
“Highly recommend this restaurant! Just had the best lamb chops I’ve ever had and an overall a feast of flavors. Definitely an experience I want to come back to. Our server Matt was very attentive and perfect timing. Thank you for such a wonderful time.”
“We went to Desiderio's Dinner Theater with a party of 7 people for my mom's birthday recently. It was a very fun evening with delicious food. The service was great as well. The show was engaging and entertaining with very impressive actors. I don't frequent theater performances so I wasn't sure what to expect of the evening but I was pleasantly surprised as to how much I enjoyed the whole evening. Highly recommend!”
“I don't leave reviews unless an establishment earns it and wow did JT's deliver. We were given excellent service, great tasting food and amazing cocktails. We will definitely be returning.”
“This place was crazy fun, the atmosphere was amazing, and the conversations were enthralling. The bartender is a hoot... and a cutie ?, and the people there will have you wheezing.Besides that I gotta give compliments to the chef. I got the Angus burger and let me tell you, you gotta try it. They add something sweet to the burger (I skepticize it to be some sort of jam) but the contrast that it makes.with the savory burger is amazing. Not to mention the Fry's cooked to perfection; exactly what I needed.All around the place was very clean, definitely up to date on everything; and from what I've seen of the kitchen there's not much to worry about. The bathrooms were spiff and span and the mirror was cool.Which brings me to my final point, The layout. I had to say the design of the bar was very classic, you come in and are treated with a bar and a few tables and a booth wall. The kitchen connects behind the bar and out of the bar and a kitchen window. Then a small hallway that leads to both genders bathrooms and some other off limit stuff I presume(Didn't snoop around too much XD). I really like the bar and how the spirits were backlight.To summarize, id give it a 5/5 if you're looking for a good time. Thanks if you actually read all this.(PS, Sam, nice tattoo)Wheelchair accessibility: Street level with a door wide enough, no automatic doors but I'm sure a bartender or a fellow citizen would help.”

The Place
“The place is great. It is quaint and friendly with a sort of country-club atmosphere. It is usually busy, with either a short wait or none. It's great in the summer because of the nice patio, and great in the winter because it's cozy and they serve warm drinks.”
“The Melting Pot went above and beyond to accommodate a special meal for my (now) 11 year old son who was diagnosed with leukemia in November of 2023. I initially made a reservation for 2/6 (the day before his birthday). An assistant manager, Madeline, called me to inquire about my son's interests. I could tell she was planning something special for him! He had started the latest round of chemo the day before (2/5) and was not feeling well enough to go out the next day. The general manager, George, called me and left me a voicemail indicating that he'd like to bring fondue *to us* at no charge. I wasn't able to get back to him right away but instead I stopped in on Wednesday and was able to speak to him. I thanked him for his offer but asked if we could come in the next day instead. My son had stuffed animals, a balloon, and a newspaper of the things that happened on his birthday waiting for him when he arrived. Our server, Katie, made my son feel like royalty. The owner and general manager covered our meal and we used the money we would've spent to go to Dave and Busters afterward. Thank you to the entire team for making me feel seen and giving my son time away from being a cancer kid. You have made a difference in our lives!”
“absolutely terrible clientele. scumbags who will try to fight you for no reason. this place is trash. who doesn't serve molson in Buffalo. at least they had Tullamore dew”

Grezi
“Highly recommend Grezi on Main! We came from out of town to visit with family and had the pleasure of dining at this local restaurant. We enjoyed starting out with a cocktail (The Oliver), Autumn Salad, Pan Seared Scallops, Jumbo Chicken Wings and Brussels Sprout Bruschetta. We enjoyed the Grezi Smash Burger as our entree. Then ended the night with 3 different desserts. Food was phenomenal, staff were friendly and decor was elegant!! This Buffalo restaurant is outstanding!”

Vault@237
“A perfect place for a business lunch. Our server was friendly, and the food was delicious. Considering that we were time-constrained, we didn’t have to wait long to be seated or to eat. It’s a nice setting for a good conversation.”
“Highest quality screen around. I saw the Exorcist original. High quality comfortable couch option for seating. Cheap tickets but high quality screen. Reasonable price snacks and drinks. Intimate yet affordable.”

INIZIO
“Warm ambience. Great service. Delicious food. The bread came out hot and crusty. The polenta especially was excellent, closest I’ve had to my Nonna’s. Everyone enjoyed their dishes. All the food was perfectly seasoned and felt good in my mouth (not exactly sure what I mean by this but the way I’d describe it). We were so comfortable we sat and chatted way past dessert. Eat at Inizio!!”
“This Squeeze location is pretty nice! Love all the art inside and how open and cleanly it is! Wish there was a little bit more of a selection with juice but I did go the day after a holiday. Everyone was really friendly!”

Matinee
“The drinks were expertly made and delicious. The food we ordered was plentiful and very tasty, the guys do an excellent job and make you feel welcome. Love this place, I. Believe you will too ... try it, you'll like it!!”
“everything was amazing!!! food and drinks were on point. only thing is my chicken taco tasted alittle fishy. not sure if they use canned chicken. I mean I still ate it but just alittle fishy taste.”
“2nd time ordering she doesn’t disappoint ! Ordered from Uber eats - from the thoughtfulness of the packaging to the amazing taste; food slaps. Highly recommend!!”
“The food was amazing and the service was great! So impressed by the barbecue sauces and food we are served. Collard greens were on point, with the perfect amount of spice. We were only in town for three nights, and we came back here twice!”
“Hands down one of the best Italian restaurants in Buffalo. All of the locations are amazing, go above and beyond. Food is always delicious and cooked perfectly. My go to for lunch at work (the salad….are you serious SO YUMMY!) and the dinner. Just do yourself a favor and eat here. I never go out of my way to leave reviews, but I had to for them, I cannot say enough good things!”
“I came from Canada to try authentic Buffalo wings. We went to a restaurant recommended by a friend's friend, where I tried the wings sprinkle with recommended blue cheese.The atmosphere of the restaurant was pleasant, and it made for a enjoyable lunch. Many locals were dining there, and I was surprised by the volume of today's special menu. It's a popular spot among the locals.Since it's also a brewery, you can enjoy various delicious beers. The restaurant is located in a residential area, and its appearance resembles a house, making it easy to overlook. There are also days when they have live band performances at night. The jukebox and the presence of four-leaf clovers inside the restaurant added to the ambiance.I bought beer as a souvenir for my husband, but it wasn't bottled; instead, they poured the beer from the dispenser into an empty can and sealed it, making it literally fresh beer to go.I definitely want to visit again.”

“Attended a bridal shower recently. The food was excellent and the staff was awesome as well. It was the first time I had ever been there and I absolutely loved it.”
“Highly recommend Tappo restaurant. Very creative menu choices. Food is fresh with beautiful presentation and amazing taste. Service is fast and friendly and the atmosphere is fun and lively. By far our favorite restaurant! Always our number 1 choice.”
“The regular steak hoagie was just a little bit too salty. I have ordered in the past there and it was not as salty and the steak had a different texture. That's my opinion. I will order from there again but I will request not to much seasoning.”
“We stopped by on a Saturday night and came for dinner and drinks. It was about 7 pm and it was quite the lively scene. There was a dj playing some great Drake, to get pumped for his upcoming concert, and 90’s throwback hits. It was quite a scene and as the night went on it turned into a packed party. We were lucky to arrive when we did because the seating here is very casual, first come first serve and there aren’t a ton of tables. We started off with espresso yo self and aviation cocktails which were delicious! And we decided to try a few different menu items since it was our first time trying their food. The duck fat popcorn was tasty and had the right amount of truffle salt, the duck fat def gave it a more deluxe flavor. It was the perfect amount to snack on. The sweet potato hummus was probably the best thing we had. It had perfect ratios of sweet potato and chick peas and the pepitas and candied walnuts were awesome toppings. I will order this again and again. Finally, the nachos with grilled chicken were also good. The queso was home made and there were a generous portion of toppings, chicken included.This is a beautifully designed space and you can go back and forth between Hartmans and Resurgence which is cool to get 2 spots in 1. They distill all their liquor and make some delicious high end cocktails. One of their specialties is Loganberry flavored vodka, cocktails and their own seltzer. Overall a great time and we will be back soon.”
“I work in the area and love this spot. Cup and char pepperoni on the pizza and it was done to perfection! Subs are also very tasty. I've tried multiple kinds of subs, and all have been satisfying, but once I tried the stuffed banana pepper option added to my sub it ruined me for subs any other way . The peppers take the sub over the top! Try this place if you haven't been there yet!”

“Best wings in Buffalo hands down. Lived here for 2 years and when I'm in town, this is the only place I stop. The hot wings are well spiced. All the wings are great size, juicy with a good amount of meat.”
“Everyone was super nice and friendly. However i chose the beef egusi with fufu and they microwaved the meat !!! Not fresh at all. The jollof was also microwaved. For $20 a plate food needs to be fresh !! I sat to eat there and i could hear the microwave beeping. When i receieved my food the plate was super hot like it was mircowaved while other plates from my meal werent as hot. I never leave bad reviews because i know how much a review can push away new customers but for real if you want fresh food i highly reccomend buffalo suya on filmore !!”
“Great spot to grab a drink, either to go or enjoy it in their tasting room or outside. More options than just beer, including cider and wine. Friendly service and laid back atmosphere. When the Thursday @ Main concert series is going on, you can hear the music from their tables outside.”
“My mom and went here before going to a Sabres game on Thursday. It was brutal weather but they stayed open nonetheless. We got great service and great food. Thanks Lisa. Definitely would go here again.”
“I LOVE this place! Awesome staff, great drinks, and the smoked hot wings are out of this world. Definitely a place to check out and play a game of darts or just have a beer.”
“I never write reviews. We found this place after visiting Niagara Falls and a day of driving from Chicago. All I can say is Wow! Wellington was spectacular! What a gem this place is. Will definitely return.Vegetarian options: Salad with yellow beets various nuts arugula- so good.Kid-friendliness: Atmosphere is not for kids, however, they accommodated my 8yo son who is jumpy to say the least. He had a chicken sandwich that was spectacular. (I had half of it)”
84
Roost
“Finally made it to roost! Easily accommodated our large group of ten for a birthday brunch. Music and vibes were great! Food was also well plated and delicious but definitely a little on the pricier side. The staff were so friendly and great but service was extremely slow- something I've heard from my friends who frequent there to seems like an ongoing issue. Only giving four stars because of the slow service and unfortunately one of my friends had to send her meal back because there was a hair in it but they did rectify it with a percentage off and a new plate.”
“Steel Leaf Brewery not only was amazingly accommodating, the food was tantalizing to the taste buds, the atmosphere was welcoming and kid friendly. The owner,Jeff, came right to our table and made sure we were taken care of. Definitely recommend this sustainable restaurant. Please go check it out and have a good time, order some food, bring the fam!”

Here all the timeHad to edit this cause they added some pineapple thing to the Bloody Mary? Now it’s sweet and no horseradish flavor? We gotta fix this guys”

“Dinner at DiTondo was absolutely fabulous! Fresh, local ingredients elevate the dishes to a level that make your taste buds long for more! Whatever you choose, you will not be disappointed. Service was stellar & the atmosphere enhanced the entire experience.”
“On February 4, 2024 I and a few of my friends rode over to Buffalo to from Rochester to celebrate my 55th birthday at Park Vue soul food restaurant, that I had seen on Facebook and heard good things about. The owner made me reservations for 6pm, Once we got there we were disappointed, there was nowhere to park "nowhere" and the place looked like a hole in the wall. We were gonna leave, but we decided to stay. Once in the owner was very welcoming, it was a little of a wait for our food order, but we didn't mine. Once the food came out Everything was amazing, my friends were not pleased with the yams, because we were told everything was made from scratch and they felt that the yams was fromout the can, I didn't have yams, but i did order greens and they had ran and she replaced them with string beans, which was good, other then that, everything turned out good and yes I will return one day.”
“Been here a few times while using our WNY Beer Trail Pass. Always a good selection of beers on tap. Sometimes the bartenders are a bit quiey but at least they pay attention and keep your glass filled. We also joined a party that rented the place out for a wedding and that was a great time as well. Parking is a bit tough sometimes but never to the point where we cant get in. We will be back again once the weather warms up.”
“I am most sure why this place was almost empty on a Saturday night…we were a party of seven and after about 8:45 and the early diners left it was empty. You all are missing out! Our service was attentive and friendly. The drinks were well balanced and priced well. I had the grapefruit Cosmo which sounds odd but it was refreshing and balanced. I had the fish fry which was a LARGE piece of fish with Cole slaw and pasta salad. Normally, the sides are kind of an afterthought. Not here. Both had flavor, freshness and weren’t put in those little paper side cups. The fry batter stayed on and you could actually eat both and the batter at the same time. I have found in Buffalo that oftentimes the batter doesn’t adhere and you eat just plain fish…not my favorite. My partner had the burge and she told me the beef actually had flavor. She asked for medium well and got it. Usually when you ask for medium well you either get medium and well done. Hers was cooked just right. My other friend got the shrimp and grits. It was huge. She actually got about 6-8 ( I didn’t count) but knew it wasn’t four which a lot of times is the standard. The were good sized and she finished the entire dish which is unusual for her. She was t was delicious. Another person for the rack of lamb and he said it was phenomenal. Truthfully I was talking so much I didn’t pay attention to the other food at the table lol. During the meal a gentleman came over and asked how our meal was and we all commented that it was great! He seemed very happy and thanked us for coming and would enjoy seeing us again. We stayed and had drinks right up until closing and never felt rushed. The bar still had patrons that I am sure are regulars and everyone seemed to be having a great time. One of the owners came over and and how we had heard of them and I told her that I used Google and Yelp and they had gotten great reviews! She went on to tell us about their great patio and to be sure and use their parking lot as well. As you are are aware parking at a restaurant in Buffalo can be challenging. Having a parking lot is a premium! We can’t wait to enjoy the patio this summer but will go back again for dinner and drinks before then! You all are missing out if you haven’t tried this place!Parking: Side of building with access to the patio as well.”

“Creative and innovative cocktails. The menu is carefully created by extremely talented chef’s The owners Tony, Jess and Ed are always ready to make your dining experience extra special”
“Fantastic service, was busy but not crazy. Great fish fry with seasoned french fries. Of course a really good beer selection and large screens for all sorts of sports. All in all much better than 716 was.”
“We got food from Far East Bayou last night and it was everything I hoped and more. The food was incredible - the seasonings were delicious and balanced, portions were fantastic for the price, and it was made to order. Lamont was incredibly friendly and did a fantastic job with our orders. Can’t wait to eat his food again!”

“The food was absolutely delicious ordered two Italian stallions with banana peppersThe building it self looks gawdy but go in anyway it has the most amazing food .”
“Ordered 5 dinners for family. Two goat, one curried chicken, one jerk chicken/pork combo, one oxtail. Plus some meat pies. Huge portions. All delicious. Probably the best jerk I’ve had since stopping at a small street stand in Toronto over 10 years ago. One meal can easily feed two people. Highly recommended.”

“We live in S.Bflo so it's very convenient to have this little Irish Pub with great live music and a fun atmosphere. Always a good time at Talty's. Love it during the Christmas Season and all the decorations!!!”
“Their Zuppa Tuscano soup tastes homemade, and amazing!! The soup is served hot, with a very filling consistency of sausage, potatos, spinach, a few other vegetables. It is a hearty soup that is perfect for a cold day(or any day). I also had a 2X Grilled Cheese with Cheddar and Pepperjack cheeses. It was a warm, cheesy mouthful of delight, with each bite. My husband had the French Onion soup, which he entirely enjoyed, coupled with a roast beef on kimmelweck. The horseradish had a good kick to it, according to my husband, and the sandwich was perfect.”

“I was buying baklava from stores that was packaged and was prolly packaged loooong ago! I discovered حلويات و مأكولات بلاد الشام on Facebook and had to go check it out! The owners were so nice and had me sample it! I loved it and how fresh it is too!! Baked fresh! I shared it with my friends and family! They all agree and I’m sure they’ll be going there too for a good taste!”
“My sweetheart and i were not able to make the 14th of Feb work...due to my job. So i took her here last Friday. We had so much fun and the server Terrence was amazing”
“One of the cleanest establishments I’ve been too. You can tell they take pride in the upkeep of the restaurant/bar. Food was amazing, looked and tasted exactly as advertised. The staff makes you feel right at home. I will definitely be returning!”
“Butter chicken with rice & Tikka Masala naan…absolutely perfect! Highly recommend to friends, family and guests to Western New York! Full of flavor and the staff were amazing!”
“Stumbled upon this place on Door Dash. Very expansive menu so you could come back again and again to try something completely different. All the options I’ve tried have excellent. One of the few places that offer Peshwari Naan which I’ve been craving since returning from the UK. Will definitely go back and try something new because the foods I’ve tried have been quite delicious and their portions very generous.”
“Today, was the very first time for my stopping by there, to taste their ribs. Unfortunately, they were out of the ribs, but assured that they would be back in stroke, with them, at 5pm. They allowed me to taste test some of their pulled pork, and it was SO GOOD that I had to buy some. I have NO DOUBT, whatsoever, that their ribs will hold the same 'chef-manship' as their pulled pork. This father and son team not only work such magic at the grill, but are - both - very pleasant individuals, to boot.”

“This is like a German Disneyworld. Absolutely humungous beer hall with sky high ceilings, picnic style tables, a stage with live music (a lot of 70s Top 40 covers, which was interesting), friendly and attentive servers in traditional dirndls, and German style lagers and ales on draft. The food is just ok, nothing special, but the portions are massive. The cocktails are not great either, but I wasn't expecting them to be. Overall, it's a bit like being at Oktoberfest with an American twist.”
“Went there on a Wednesday night. We were a party of four and had made a reservation. We were promptly seated in the main dining room and greeted by our server. We ordered drinks which were promptly served as ordered. We each opted for the full meal with salad bar. The salad bar was well kept and extensive in selection. I particularly enjoyed the roasted garlic, goat cheese and stuffed jalapeno. I tried at least ten different meats , my favorite was a leg of lamb with mint jelly. Service throughout the evening was friendly and courteous.I enjoyed the meal more than the finest LV buffet. Will certainly return , highly recommended.”
“We visited Buffalo last Saturday and decided to try Anchor Bar. The food was great. But the service was amazing. Truly, the beat service we have had in a long time. Thank you for making it a wonderful visit.”
“We loved the food and service . Kung pao chicken was so much on point. Perfect noodles..And i loved the pink sangria ❤️Our service was also very good. Server name was ShawnMust visit .”
“Grace was the best server ever! She was very friendly, funny, personable, and kind. She really made our dining experience one of a kind. We can’t wait to come back and we are definitely requesting her as our server!”
“Part of the ambience is the dirty dusty atmosphere but honestly the food is amazing. Didn't have the wings but the turkey club sandwich honestly can be split or shared. If you drink soda check on the free refills status. I asked for a refill and was charged for 2.”
“The food was delicious, as were the cocktails we ordered. Gracie was fun to have as our server and once she found out it was my daughter’s birthday, she brought her a complimentary mimosa and a dessert at the end of her meal! I will definitely go there again!”
“A group of us came here for Eid today and it was the perfect place for us to sit down and enjoy a great meal and celebrate Eid! We ordered the chicken tikka bryani, reshmi kebab, nihari and chicken handi, garlic naan, roghni naan, parathay and regular naan as well as sweet lassi and mango lassi. The woman who runs the place was generous enough to give us mango lassis as Eidi too (complimentary) that made our experience even better! The restaurant was clean and well decorated! We ordered a medium level of spice, and while personally for someone who cannot deal with spices I would prefer mild (I would recommend this if someone does not want spicy food), my friends did quite enjoy it! I really really enjoyed the naans and parathas! The food tasted great but due to my spice intolerance I could not enjoy it as much, but the raita and chutney certainly helped! The lassis, especially the mango lassi, were cool, sweet and refreshing. I would definitely love to come here again! Also, the Pakistani decor, clay dishes and utensils and even the cool van outside really added to the ambience :)Dietary restrictions: Has halal food and vegetarian options too”
“Enjoyed the food a lot, not so much the place.I was pleased with them having vegan options!There's not too much parking and the place was absolutely packed out the door, causing me to order to go instead. I wouldn't go back due to how busy it is and the layout being inefficient.Looking forward to the new locations with more parking and better layout!Overall the good food outweighed the chaos inside, so will order take out for a pick up next time!Vegetarian options: There are a few vegan options!”
“Place is a joke!! first off it smells dirty and sour when you walk in. The bar had old dry food stuck all over it from the previous night. And the usless bartender staggered around clueless not taking any orders. All the cups were dirty and when my wife asked him if she could order food he replied "I guess, if you want" in a low under breath mumble, acting like we were an inconvenience. After 25 mins of no one being waited on, everyone at the bar got up and left. others at the door, waiting to come in saw this too and joined the crowd of people heading to a different restaurant. Do not go there. worst restaurant experience ever. will never go back.”
“Frequent stop for me & probably my favorite pizza in Buffalo... Love the atmosphere too... My pizza tonight was a bit off however... Thin & greasy... But I'll be back for sure...”

“Woman who took my order was inviting, welcoming and very helpful. First time to this amazing coffee shop. And definitely won't be my last. Has plenty of different kinds of seating. The decor I love it. Great job on the milk cake it was perfect not too sweet.”
“(This review is for the Buffalo, NY location) Read about this new Yemeni coffeeshop opening up and wanted to check it out. It was a nice space with a decent amount of seating inside wrapped around the counter. Smelled delightful with all the blends of coffee and teas inside too! Since I’m not a big coffee drinker, I got a tea instead, specifically the Adeni Chai. It was a black tea mix with cardamom and nutmeg, which was something different for me, but I enjoyed. The main thing I came for was this treat that they called Honeycomb, which is a traditional Yemeni pastry. It was filled with cream cheese and had honey drizzled on top. They break apart into these little balls and it was so yummy. Definitely recommend checking this out if nothing else. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and I enjoyed sitting in the shop and doing some quality people watching while I enjoyed my tea. Got a couple treats to-go as well, so I’ll have to update this review after I have those.”
“This was such a great event! I am so impressed with what The Lunch Box offers and how much they have accomplished! I fully intend to make my way back during the day to try some of the food. The samplings that we were offered were so good! My friend and I tried as much as we could and we were so happy to have been able to attend!”

“Rachel’s is fast food, but for a new location, I found the ingredients to be fresh and service to be quick and kind. I’ve ordered online before at other locations and find I’m always more satisfied just ordering in person so that’s all I’ve done at this location since it doesn’t really save you all that much more time.”
“Awesome food, ate there today! Being from Texas would highly recommend this place. The food was flavorful and the atmosphere was great. Friendly people and will be going back soon. I would recommend the chicken tikka and cardamon cornbread. Don’t forget the Texas Twinkie!”
