About SZND

SZND is a unique upscale restaurant in Buffalo, offering a sophisticated and intimate setting. The atmosphere is cozy, with attention to detail evident in the decor, from the matching chairs and wallpaper to the elegant martini and champagne glasses. The service is excellent and attentive, though it can be slow during busy times. The food is seasoned to perfection, featuring standout dishes like blackened artichokes, bison ribs with blue cheese, and halibut with puttanesca sauce, which has a delicious tang. The portions are generous and high quality, making the prices reasonable. Desserts are rich and delightful without being overly sweet. Consistently wonderful experiences await at this hidden gem, where a quaint atmosphere and incredible food come together. The cocktail list is well balanced, and the espresso martini is particularly praised. Reservations are recommended as the location is not large. With an impressive wine selection and a homey feel, SZND is definitely worth a visit. Parking is available across the street in the bank lot.

We chose SZND for our tenth anniversary dinner after several days of debating whether to try something new or stick with one of our tried-and-true favorites. The glowing reviews and upscale reputation eventually swayed us - unfortunately, it turned out to be a decision we regret.

To begin with, we noted our anniversary in the reservation - 10 years is an important milestone. We didn’t even get a simple “Happy Anniversary.” There was zero recognition of the occasion....read full review

Intimate vibe. lovely decor. food was delicious- loved the wonton starter, scallop fettuccine, and braised short ribs.

Service was great! Will be returning!

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
