“OH MY GOODNESS!!!! AMAZING FOOD, SERVICE, ATMOSPHERE, AND LOCATION!!!! I live in the north towns, but I will definitely head down here again in the future. Highly recommend the lemon pepper wings, Jedi Melt, Gold Mine chicken sandwich, and Banana pepper rings. Enjoy!“

“I love to dine in and soak in the atmosphere, but to go is just as delicious. Parking can be tough, but the food and drinks are incredible and worth the trip. I go back and forth trying a different burger and chicken sandwich, so far I love them all“

“Absolutely wonderful experience having our celebration at Resurgence. Everything was perfect: from the venue, set-up, food, communication through-out planning of the event and I cannot forget the friendly and helpful staff! I would highly recommend.“

“Very Good food and very nice people inside“

“I have nothing but great things to say about Smash That. There were customers from Florida who ordered before us and they raving how great the food was. I got to see for myself, I ordered the Smash burger with bacon and a side of fries. Not only was the service hospitable and welcoming BUT the food was great and portions are huge too. The beef patties were very well seasoned, has crisp edges, and the lettuce, tomato, onion and alioli sauce hit perfectly! This is the best burger spot in Buffalo, no contest! Shout-out to the staff here, especially for it being halal too!!“

“If you're craving a delicious burger and crispy wings, BurgerIM is the place to be! Their burgers are incredibly flavorful, with a variety of options to suit every taste—from juicy classic beef patties to unique specialty options. The buns are always soft, and the toppings are fresh and perfectly complement each burger. The wings are a standout too—crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, they come in a variety of mouth-watering sauces. Whether you like them spicy, sweet, or somewhere in between, BurgerIM has something for every wing lover. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. The staff is friendly, and the service is quick, so you won’t be waiting long for your tasty food. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the mood for great burgers and wings!“

“I always try to eat at local small businesses when I travel, mostly looking for comfort food. AJ's fits that. Milkshake was great and the rodeo burger and garlic parm fries were exceptional. Whenever I'm back in town I'll stop again.“

“We love Big John!!!“

“ordered a Polish platter and some pierogies. Absolutely loved it! 10/10 so good!!!“

“Had fun, great staff, and wings will keep me coming back often. Lots of TVs and definitely filled with of people there cheering on the Bills.“

“Great experience everytime at Transit Road. Customer service, quality, and timing!! Love Cluck Cluck Moo Moo!!!!“

“Best pizza I've had! 2 slices for $7 is really cheap for how good it is. I would pay $7 a slice for this quality, loaded with toppings and the crust is phenomenal.“

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

“great beef on weck and buffalo wings highly recommend if going to a sporting event or show“

“First time here and cannot wait to come back for lunch/dinner. Had brunch and between the portions, prices and taste of the food...highly recommend going in and giving them a try! Service was also great!!!!!“

“The Bic has great food ! I take irish dancing lessons with the rince na tiarna adults and love it! I get great exercise, listen to fun music and dance with friends.“

“Just found my favorite late night spot and I'm so glad I did!! I ordered the beef bacon cheeseburger.AMAZING, and it came super fast.“

“LOVE LOVE LOVE this food and the new place! This is my “Go-To” at least 2-3 times/per week! You can count on the food being freshly cooked EVERYDAY and friendly service. Not to mention the AWESOME outdoor dining option with a BEAUTIFUL yard filled with games/entertainment for all ages! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!“

“I love eating at five guys for the flavors of their food! The burger always have the perfect amount of condiments and veggies when given, the bun is the perfect softness and not to sweet! The patty itself has the perfect amount of seasoning mixed with grilled taste although I do believe they may put a hint of sugar in it because the burger has a tang of sweetness to it which complicates the bun in flavor! The strawberry milkshake was very delicious! The vanilla that is tasted after and mixed in with the strawberry flavor of the shake is perfect. It also didn’t melt while it was on its way home! My wife ordered 30mins before closing time when she arrived and was excited the shake machine was up! Not sure what goes on with the fries though but they honestly do be overly salted but be cooked perfectly. It’s enough season to use for a whole different meal. They definitely dont skimp out on the fries at all!. As clean as the restaurants was my wife thought they were for sure closing down! I was on the phone while she was ordering and the employees were super patient with us! We def love good customer service which makes us come back!“

“The Stuffed pepper soup is absolutely delicious! Their Rueben sandwich!!! Omg 🤤 staff is warm and friendly, you’re in and out quickly! You should absolutely stop in for lunch whenever your downtown!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“My wife & I had a wonderful experience at Coco last night. All of the staff we interacted with were very friendly and helpful. Our server, Brie, was excellent - very attentive, courteous and personable. We shared the lamb burger and an order of moules - both were fabulously delicious. Prices were very reasonable. We will return in the not too distant future.“

“Went on Labor Day. The patio is beautiful. The burgers and fries were quite delicious. The ice cream was reasonably priced. I would definitely go back.“

“Gary is an amazing man and takes pride in his food. This place holds a special place in my heart for many reasons. Thank you Gary for keeping this South Buffalo gem alive and unique!“

“Great food. Philly was so flavorful and super hearty. Cool atmosphere with original fireplace, Indian sculptures. Just feels good! Negatives: generic beer and wine menu. No local options. Why? Also the 'host' who sat us was just rude/surly. No reason for that??“

“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“

“we recently moved here. my family wanted pizza so we tried Pizza by Molino's. hands down they were fantastic. There pizza was perfect and so yummy. There wings were big and very saucy and juicy. nothing was over cooked and the pizza was not mostly sauce. This is my family's new pizza place.“

“I wish their hours were better and open longer“

“good food at reasonable prices. waitresses are the best !!!!“

“Have been here a couple times already and every experience has been great! The employees have been very attentive and welcoming, but the food is where it is at. Every time they have a new limited item, I HAVE to try it. Quality smash burgers and a wide variety of customization options solidify this place as my go-to fast food burger place. Highly recommend!“

“Awesome Texas Hots! Best in the area. I stopped in for a take-out lunch today for the "Buy 5 get one Free", they were terrific. The sauce tastes the exact same every time I stop in, it hasn't changed since I was a kid in the 80's and went there with my grandfather for lunch. The staff is always friendly and polite. This is a great diner and Kaisertown is "Lucky" to have it. Pun intended...“

“First the Turkey club, then I went and tried the steak hoagie, ham is usually my go to. Every order is perfect and delicious, there's a a guy named Don and a Ryan I'm pretty sure that's their names .I try to order when they are working, since I had a bad experience ordering when a girl was working, no offense but I asked for a lightly toasted roll and it was burnt and hard as a rock lol other than that. Mr subs is delicious!!!!“

“Just moved in down the street. Great bartender, great atmosphere. Bills whooped the Rams, very friendly and open all around“

“amazing food and good staff 100% recommend“

“I had their peanut buster parfait. My favorite yummy yummy yummy 😋🤤 in my tummy tummy tummy.
We had to eat in the car because of the Canadian fires smoke in the air today.
Didn't change the taste of my peanut buster parfait it was delicious.“

“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!“

“I’ve eaten at Halal Feasto multiple times, and honestly it’s one of the best halal food spots in Buffalo. Every time I go, the food is fresh, hot, and packed with flavor. The chicken is always seasoned perfectly, the lamb is tender, and the portions are huge for the price. Their chicken over rice and mix platters are easily some of the most satisfying meals I’ve had in Western New York.

What really stands out is the consistency. A lot of places are good one day and disappointing the next, but Halal Feasto always delivers the same quality. The rice is flavorful, the salad is fresh, and the white sauce takes everything to another level. The combination of flavors reminds me of the great halal spots you find in larger cities, but with portions that seem even bigger.

The menu has something for everyone. Whether you’re in the mood for a platter, gyro, burger, loaded fries, wings, or late-night food after a long day, they always have something that hits the spot. Their chicken platter and lamb platter are among the most popular items, and after trying them myself, I completely understand why. (Order Online)

The customer service is another reason I keep coming back. The staff is friendly, respectful, and they make you feel welcome every time you walk in. They work hard, especially during busy hours, and you can tell they care about the food they’re serving.

One thing I appreciate is that they’re open late, which is perfect for students, night-shift workers, or anyone craving good food after most restaurants have closed. Being right near UB South Campus makes it an easy stop for students looking for a filling meal without spending a fortune. (Halal Feasto)

I’ve recommended Halal Feasto to friends, family, and coworkers, and every person who has tried it has come back with good things to say. Even in local discussions about halal food in Buffalo, people regularly mention Halal Feasto as one of the go-to spots in the city. (Reddit)

If you’re looking for authentic halal food, generous portions, great prices, and consistently delicious meals, Halal Feasto deserves a visit. Buffalo has a lot of food options, but Halal Feasto has earned its reputation as one of the top halal destinations in the area. Whether it’s your first visit or your fiftieth, you’re going to leave full, satisfied, and already thinking about what you’re ordering next time. Highly recommended — 10/10.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Excellent experience at Allen St Hardware Cafe! The atmosphere was cozy, unique, and full of character, making it a perfect spot to relax and enjoy a meal or drink. The food and beverages were delicious and well-prepared, and everything came out fresh. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout the visit. A great local gem with amazing vibes—highly recommend!“

“There is a very bad smell of wet old soggy carpet throughout the restaurant, there is tons of woodfloors that need Murphys oil soap on them to clean them well!!!! The food was amazing and of course the service was wonderful beyond that we had a wonderful time“

“chicken tenders are amazing order all the time!“

“The WD restaurant is only open for dinner. We shared the shrimp appetizer which is probably the best shrimp I've had. There were 6 but they were huge. The salad is big enough for 2 people to share. I ordered the lobster tail which came with asparagus & I also ordered the mashed garlic potatoes which were amazing! My lobster tail was so good and tender. It's served with melted butter and one other dip that was amazing! My husband had a steak and he said it was a little tough. There is also a bread tray that comes with three different butters to use. We were able to walk right in but reservations are recommended. The restaurant is on the second floor and there is an elevator if necessary.“

“Burger King's Burger seems tasty but I cannot recommend for other foods. Do I have a little experience about them. I sometimes rush into them as a DoorDasher and Uber eats Rider. If I have to recommend or rank I must give them three star.“

“Food was very good. Service was good. The only problem I had was. I was asked if I wanted salt pepper or ketchup. So I said ketchup. They didn't put in any at all. This has happened 2 times now. If you didn't ask me I wouldn't have thought about it. But you asked and didn't do it. I'm not really mad about it but it's just stupid. Next time if your not gonna put ketchup just don't ask me if I want it.“

“Went with a friend and ordered two scoops of a Perry's (less than $5) and it was the perfect cool down treat! The service was prompt and the staff professional. They also have an large food menu, but that will have to be for another visit/review. The parking lot can feel a little cramped, but it's a nice spot with outdoor seating.“

“Great experience everytime at Transit Road. Customer service, quality, and timing!! Love Cluck Cluck Moo Moo!!!!“
