Roost is a funky place where the zany is embraced, in form and flavor. The lemon ricotta pizza is my favorite and it’s phenomenal. As such, I can’t seem to break out and order anything else when it’s on the menu because I love it that much. It’s gold. But we did try the pumpkin soup recently, and it was also extremely delicious. They know what they’re doing with food and service. Best bloody mary around, as well— it packs a peppery punch in the best way (as in, it hurts so good for pepper lovers). We love to share a pizza at the bar, where we get to watch all the fast paced kitchen action and fresh ingredients being used in the preparation of dishes and drinks. And, 🌟 Paige 🌟 is wonderful — a ray of sunshine and extremely professional. She is a valuable part of the team, and makes us feel welcome and at home every time we visit.

My husband and I ate here when we were in the area exploring. It's been a few months back, but I wanted to make sure I wrote a review because it was that good! What a great unexpected find a little off the beaten down road. Our food was absolutely delicious and perfectly presented artistically! We had the cabbage and ramen salad to share. Husband got the rotisserie chicken and loved it. I had the Chorizo Bahn Mi, and it was truly one of the best dishes I've had anywhere! Great service as well! Megan M. was our server, and she was super. Very hip, cool, eclectic atmosphere. And this might sound weird, but the bathrooms were cool as well with famous iconic pictures of Burt Reynolds and Farrah Fawcett. Very few restaurants excite me these days. I highly recommend this one!

Delightful brunch. Fresh food and cocktails. One of the few places in Buffalo that serves a Bloody Mary that’s actually spicy. Tastefully decorated for the winter holidays

From the host (who made us feel as if we were actually being HOSTED) to the server to the expediters, every person involved in our experience was positive, friendly, and attentive without being overbearing or harried. (We were there for an early dinner service so no one was busy yet.)

The food was delicious, great flavor combos and presented beautifully, made with high-quality ingredients, and plentiful. (Mushroom bisque was especially rich & woodsy)

With a menu that rotates often, we can’t wait to go back.

Food was excellent. Service was a little slow. Absolutely TERRIBLE parking! Because of the parking I will not go there again. And we couldn't find the door to get in. It looks like it's on the front of the building, but it's on the side...not marked.

MY REVIEW FOR YOU

We recently went to Roost in Buffalo. The atmosphere was relaxing, yet vibrant at the same time. Seeing the chefs, go to work on creating our food & drinks with such artistic details, was so interesting. It felt like we were eating at one Gordon Ramsay’s places. Our food was amazing, loaded with tenderness and flavor. All of the ingredients were so fresh and perfectly executed. I would definitely give it five stars and recommend you give it a shot. The roasted fig, stuffed with goat cheese, wrapped in bacon with a drizzle of honey, was phenomenal. If that is a menu option, when you visit, I would highly recommend that you go for it!

Had a delicious dinner at Roost, right at sunset. Vibes were immaculate. We enjoyed the garden salad, the ribs entree, the Nashville hot flounder entree, and the mushroom fonduta pizza. We also had the strawberry shortcake dessert to share.

Food was tasty, hot, and well seasoned. Service was great. Reservations were easy to make. The restaurant is accessible with limited ADA parking spots on the side of the bldg. The restaurant has a ramp at its entrance.

Excellent food. We got the burger, house salad, and breakfast pizza. The breakfast pizza is unreal—sausage, bacon, potato, and some other deliciousness—best pizza I’ve tasted in buffalo.

The space is beautiful—open and creatively decorated.

The service was poor today. It took us 40 minutes to get our entrees. Our waitress didn’t seem to care at all. She was painfully slow and mostly non-responsive.

I’ll be back for the incredible food, but they need to step it up on service.
