A beautiful funky dive bar. Low red light and cool art everywhere. A friendly place where everyone is welcome! Lots of artists and musicians hanging around. Kind faces and wacky fun characters. Incredible eclectic genre spanning live music everyday. Cheap beer and mixed drinks. Tasty nachos, paninis and snacks! A staple of the Buffalo music scene!

I was supposed to see Bar Italia tonight and the incompetent bouncer (who have been smoking weed the entire time) couldn't discern what a real New York State ID looks like (the guy has long dreads and is short). The same ID my wife have used in Canada, Detroit, several venues in North Carolina and recently, Syracuse- and believe me, I was with her when it was issued to her, it's real and we're almost 40 years old. Ruined my entire week because this was one of my most anticipated bands to see and now they're off to Europe again and I do not know when they'll come back. This dude even let in a girl that had a Pennsylvania ID without scanning it and several other people no issue. Our money better get refunded as promised (over $60 dollars) for the trouble of traveling from Rochester to Buffalo. Such a disgrace, let's just hope this post isn't shadow banned or anything, but this was my experience two hours ago, and hopefully it doesn't happen to you. make sure you bring your passport for additional details in case your ID checker is too high to tell what is real or not. Scumbags.

I don't know the person complaining about the bouncer, but I've known the bouncer for years. He is the ultimate professional and treats all decent people appropriately. I have never had one negative incident with him. My guess is that you're leaving out some of the story. If he was refusing you entry, then you must have been in the wrong.

Absolutely love this place! Nietzches is a Buffalo staple if there ever was one. Love how this place is just full of local talent musicians/dancers/comedians etc. Special shout out to the staff especially to the doormen Miles and Don they are saints and keep the place feeling safe and friendly

Cool spot but bouncer is on a weird power trip with younger girls
EDIT: I did have 3 forms of valid ID, your bouncer refused to check and proceeded to insult me

I love this place! Such an eclectic environment where everyone is welcome. No judgement. It’s a highlight of the city, a place to come where everyone knows your name. The hummus was amazing. I’ll be back.

Thanks to Joe Rubino, Nietzsche's will forever be the most legendary bar in Buffalo. The Celtic Sessions - See movie: The Banshees of Innershirin. Tues night strip club not Nietzsche's vibe

Great bands, ample seating, it is loud so if you are sensitive bring earplugs. Service was fine the bartender wasn't actively rude but the only words she said to me was the price of my drinks so not super kind either. Beer was expensive, paid 7 bucks for a bottle of corona. Rum and coke from the well was 8 bucks. Had to park far it was a 15 minute walk and parking was 14 bucks so be prepared to pay and walk there's really nothing close. The neighborhood was fine I felt safe walking back to my car at midnight.
