“Found myself in Syracuse due to a family emergency. This spot was exactly what I needed . Great wings, great fries, and excellent service. Seems like people were super friendly and very unique. Appreciated the whole vibe. Great place to sit at the bar and get lost in your thoughts as you decompress from it all...“
“This place is special. The service is next to none !!outstanding!! The food is extraordinary to say the least!! Period!! The cocktails are unique and their nuances are more than refreshing. Jake Strawser the owner is the real deal and honestly a pleasure to call my friend. There are now two Ian’s that will not disappoint you. Ian the exemplary Chef and Ian the wonderful Barman!!! Make your reservations now. Trust me.“
“Wow! Great time at Vice! The server Liza was amazing. The service alone was worth the experience. Kind, courteous, and not to mention patient as she dealt with our large group of 4 rowdy men! The food was great. Amazing wings, very similar to bar-bill which is the best in Buffalo, but this is a close second!“
“We started our tasty journey with the Olives, featuring the Castelvetrano and Cuquillo varieties. They have just a hint of orange that makes a boring bowl of olives a standout taste experience.The Potato Latkes were up next, served with tobiko taramasalata and tarragon. The combination is absolutely incredible, striking a perfect balance between texture and flavor...perfection.For our entrees, our group had the Ravioli Dauphine and the Lamb Meatball Bomber. The ravioli, filled with tender lamb shank and drizzled with beurre blanc, accompanied by scorzonera and crispy kale, is fantastic. The Lamb Meatball Bomber is delicious with its kale, sumac onions, and garlic yogurt.However, the star of the show was undoubtedly the Braised Chicken Leg, paired with black futsu squash, lentils, sage, and endive. It's no exaggeration when I say this is the best meal I have ever had in my entire life. The depth of flavor, the perfect cook on the chicken, and the harmony of the accompaniments is simply unparalleled.We had the Vanilla Panna Cotta with lemon, honey, and toffee for dessert. I have no words that adequately capture its sheer perfection.The Little Club delivered an exceptional dining experience. If I could give them six stars, I would. Every dish was a testament to the chef's mastery over their craft. I cannot recommend The Little Club highly enough; it is an absolute must-visit for anyone who appreciates fine dining at its best.“
“I had to run an errand in Buffalo NY and stopped at a local mom and pop sandwich place that someone local had recommended. Oh.My. Goodness this place is great! I could rave about it for an hour. Everything was fresh and local and freaking delicious! Nothing was an afterthought - the bread that came with the soup was as good as my grandma’s dinner rolls ❤️ Even the lettuce on the burger was big, crisp and fresh. The tomato seemed like it had just been picked this morning. The coffee was delicious and fresh, made to order. Very generous portions, fat crispy bacon, ah! If you’ve never eaten a meal so delicious it brought tears to your eyes, you should come here. I would drive 400 miles again just to eat lunch here. The owners were super nice people!“
“Saw all the great reviews so we tried it and the food tasted very good and I see why everyone raves about it. They have so many customers it was 90 minute wait for pickup at 5:30 but earlier in the day it was only 30 mins. The order was ready at the exact time it showed for pickup ! The staff is so friendly and the place is clean.We will be back many more times !“
“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!“
“Oliver's Restaurant is easily amongst the nicest, upscale, and classy dining spots in Buffalo, NY. My first experience here was on Valentine's Day, where there I got a delicious mocktail and my boyfriend the Oliver's Manhattan! Although we were amongst the younger crowd, the staff did not make us feel less important as we were treated with the upmost respect. What made our dining experience was absolutely the restaurants layout and cleanliness! Thank you to the staff who made it a memorable experience I will always recommend.“
“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)!“
“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.“
“We were in the area for an appointment and saw Jack's on the corner. Checked out the menu and took a chance. We were so happy that we did!What an amazing find! Amazing people, atmosphere and food. The food...was so good. Totally unexpected flavors. We got the Black bean burger and the RR rice bowl. We actually asked for the recipe on both. Pico de gallo super fresh and elevated throughout the dish! A definite revisit for sure! Loved also the funny and quirky sayings around the restaurant. Just a really fun place, a good energy/vibe with superior quality of dishes.“
“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!“
“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.“
“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“
“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.“
“Always delicious food! Fresh and well prepared. The restaurant often has a rotating specials menu, recently I had the eclipse sliders with blueberry jalapeño jam and they were delicious. My go to meal here is the Brooklyn bridge turkey burger - can't go wrong! Wait staff is always friendly and while the place can seem small the booths provide privacy and comfort! There is a selection of beer and wine but in the future, cocktails would make a great addition!“
“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!“
“As a Canadian, I had high expectations for Buffalo chicken wings. We ordered the hot flavour and were not disappointed. Beer is ice cold... and we met the most lovely man named Matt ? was a great spot and felt totally comfortable like a local pub xo cheers to Matt you are a “
“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 ....“
“Fantastic spot with a really cool day-to-night concept! We stopped in for drinks and dinner. Sesame Street cocktail was fantastic — our table tried the grilled cheese and tomato soup, French onion soup, sweet potato salad, and got a side of fries, and loved it all! Homemade desserts are also excellent. Great service and atmosphere; would definitely recommend.“
“Clean, worn but cared for. CASH ONLY, atm on site.Highlight- consistent high quality simple food with a rotating special menu at more than fair pricing, easily have a drink, and meal for $20-25 with a tip.Bar is cozy, restaurant roomy on the simple side.Parking: In front, and to the left of building NOT TO THE RIGHT, that is private parking for the business next door and may be ticketed or towed.“
“This is hands down the best fish fry I have ever had. Everything from the fish fry, salads, and pierogis were the best I have ever had. Our waitress was amazing and when she told us there was a wait for food- we were patient. It was worth it!!! We will be back again!!!!!!“
“My family came here looking for a place to eat and this ended up being a sleeper hit! This is basically an Applebee's but obviously way better! The food was very good. I could not believe the portion sizes though. With the prices they charge for the food, it's basically a steal. I honestly wish there were Tully's back downstate. Definitely worth bringing your family and friends to!“
“Cozy neighborhood eatery and bar. The staff are friendly and make you feel like a regular on your first visit. The wings are great. Good buffalo sauce and crispy, blue cheese is really good, and I'm a buffalo wing snob. Atmosphere sings old buffalo with antiques and vintage photos.“
“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!!“
“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.“
“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!“
“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.“
“Went for brunch for a birthday. Food was excellent. Views were wonderful and staff were friendly and helpful. Family already asking me when we can go back again. Rarely leave reviews, but felt compelled to for this experience. Set in one of the most beautiful parts of “
“Holy. Smokes. I was craving corned beef since tomorrow is St. Pat's Day so I ordered a Reuben to go. It was ready on time, I was greeted promptly by a very nice staff member, and it was the BEST Reuben I have ever eaten. It's piled so high with meat, cheese, and sauerkraut I could barely finish it. So good!“
“We loved Union before but now it is even better in the new location. The bar is awesome and there is a full dinning room now to come and enjoy a killer meal. I love the French onion soup, wings and of course Transit log!! Awesome downtown place!“
“Huge portions, great pricing, super friendly staff, very clean and we didn't have to wait long for our food even though they were really busy but most importantly we got exactly what we ordered. I don't recommend places that often when it comes to places to eat esp when it's a newer business but I definitely recommend City Line Munch-Eatery so much that this weekend we are having our daughters Birthday party there since they do conveniently have a bowling alley right there in the bldg that they bring the food right to us so we don't have to miss any of the game. we recommend talking to the new owner Jerry Tredo for all your orders and party's and ask if they might do catering soon.“
“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.“
“Cannot say enough about how fantastic this place is, their food is so incredible that they could easily charge double and I'd still want to eat here! The venue is so well thought out and feels homey and very much like a local gem versus a chain type place, it is great. They also have an incredible wine selection, much larger than one would expect for a place of this size! Location is definitely not super large, so we would recommend making a reservation in advance. Definitely worth a visit!!!“
“Forget everything you know about Italian food. Our meal was fantastic. The filet mignon was a little over cooked, but besides that the pasta sauce was amazing, the house dressing was super good and the garlic bread and knots were also great. Would drive the hour and a half just for this place. Thank you!“
“A South Buffalo favorite for a reason, have never had a bad bite to eat here. Fish fry followed suit did not disappoint! Breaded and beer battered, my beer batter fish looks small but it was a good 2 inches thick and made up for, length, lol.“
“Omg,Me and girlfriend went for brunch this morning and William was our server William was awesome, from the way he described certain menu items, to customer service. The food was awesome. I will definitely come back and try dinner service next time “
“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.“
“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.“
“There were 10 of us tonight 7 who have never been here and they all loved it and said this should be our new hang out! Our server was absolutely fantastic, and it was very busy and She never had a attitude and had a smile on her face at all times!! I’m sorry I forgot her name! Marybeth will know who I’m talking about!! Thank you for giving us a nice night out!“
“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!“
“My current favorite place to order fish fry takeout. The beer batter is fried to a crispy perfection. The sides are hit or miss, the potato salad was not good the last time I ordered. But was still pretty happy with meal overall. Do recommend!“
“I love this little throwback. Run by Sharon, also owner, it's a place to call "cheers". You're greeted by name with a bright smile. Ang can be found in his customary seat in the early hours, strangers become friends here. The food is great, prices reasonable.“
“Okay the food, the setting, the layout!!!! 10/10. Self service for food- using a QR code that is placed on tables for the servers to run the food out to you PIPING HOT! Seat yourself and water and napkins and plates and wet-wipes (you’ll need them) to share were all easily accessible with both entrances.Went with a couple of friends and we tried:Pretzel and queso app ($14)- STUNNING, queso was a perfect blend of Smokey and smooth and the pretzels came in rods (4) and were piping hot 10/10Wingnutz dip ($13)- I know this is what they are known for but I personally like my chicken wing dip, spicy. The chicken was tender though and came with a massive plate of fresh chips. 8.5/10Spring Rolls ($13)- YUM- fresh out of the fryer laying on top of a bed of kimchi (not too soured or prickly but the perfect complement) and a sweet Chile sauce. Really fresh and crisp 9.5/10Last Dragon Tacos ($18)- WOW- these were super flavorful and fresh even with the very generous meat portion. Sometimes it can be too overwhelming, but they nailed this one between the kimchi and pickled red onions giving the taco the bite it needs, to the very tender brisket, and the sauce that adds a kick! Dynamite! 10/10Roasted Cauliflower Taco ($15)- packs quite the punch in a mouthful- really tender cauliflower that soaked up all of the delicious sauce served with. 8.5/10Wingnutz Chicken Sandwich ($16) with their Cajun fries. Note for the fries- absolute perfection, LOVE a fry that is just about half an inch thick- gives a great crust and super fluffy inside. Their chicken sandwich was MASSIVE, genuinely think they used half a chicken on it, soaked in a hot honey brine- they have perfected a Nashville style fried chicken and DONT forget the pickles (thick cut)“
“I just read the review about an elderly man that frequents the restaurant and the staff taking advantage of him. That is completely FALSE! That is a terrible way to express your opinion! I am also a longtime customer, I know Jim and he gives money to the staff. I have witnessed the staff refuse this money and he threw an absolute fit! Caused a scene in the restaurant and yelled its HIS money and he will do what he pleases with it. He comes in almost daily AND the girls have called his daughter to make her aware of this.As far as his dementia, why would you all let him drive to the restaurant twice a day? I myself am here almost everyday and sometimes sit with him. He is a funny and wonderful man. He loves the staff and hugs all of them before he leaves. And myself.So your review is distasteful and wrong. Gets your facts straight before you try and ruin a business!“
“I grew up in NYC but have lived in rural PA for most of my adult life. I have not had Greek food this good in forever! We were on the way back from Niagara Falls and decided to stop to eat. We were seated immediately, our server was friendly and observant, the food came out so quickly! I was just amazed, and I wish I lived closer to go more often. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend this restaurant!!“
“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.“
“It taste like nostalgia. I love the chili sauce, and it meets my cravings each time. The people are always so nice and funny but they're not buggy. The whole place feels like a time portal and it's so calm and easygoing in there. The place fits my mood and always comes in clutch!“
“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.“
“Mel was awesome! She went above and beyond to make it a fun date night for my wife and I. We HIGHLY recommend the ahi tuna. The Wasabi sauce is a must try with it! The homemade blue cheese is also incredible!Drinks A++. Nothing bad about this experience at all and we will be back very soon!“
