Great pub fare with gluten free options for almost the entire menu.

I've been coming here for years and unfortunately did not have a great experience yesterday. There wasn't enough staff on and the bartender was fulfilling multiple roles, bussing, hosting, serving and tending to the bar. We were patient when ordering drinks, however I noticed that the bartender glared at me a few times and it made me feel very uncomfortable. I don't think I will be coming back here, and it sucks because this was a neighborhood bar that is close to home.

Great neighborhood place for people who have to eat gluten free. Really enjoyed our dinner.

We love the Burning Buffalo a lot! It's such a fun spot to take our kids and grandkids! The waitresses are the best. Friendly but very professional. We've never had a bad meal there. Their burgers are wonderful and the fish fries might be the best in the city.

Went for lunch. Was great food and service was extremely pleasant. The timing was slow but the smiles and positivity made up for it. A bit pricey

Delicious!!! 😋

The person who cooked our wings must have taken a masterclass, they were cooked to absolute perfection.

If you have celiac, this place is a gem. Their menu clearly labels gluten-free options, and they even have a dedicated fryer. A rare and reassuring find! Highly recommend the wings and nachos.

Huge kudos to Carrie, who was handling the floor solo as a waitress/hostess on a steady Monday night. She was greeting guests, taking orders, running food, clearing tables- you name it. She kept everything running smoothly and always with a great attitude. I noticed the bartender was equally on point, and together they made a super efficient team. Couldn’t have asked for better service!

This place is a 10 out of 10. The food was clearly fresh made to order and holy crap it was incredible. I highly suggest this place, the chef deserves an award and I'm not joking.

Restaurant Week brought me in as a first time visitor, but I will be back. The food came out hot and was delicious, especially the roasted tomato basil soup. My next visit I hope to sit on the outdoor patio and enjoy the hustle of Hertel Ave. Service was prompt and efficient. The bar was very busy, also a good future option.

Our server, Courtney was extremely friendly and attentive to our dining needs. Her food recommendations were exactly what she promised and we left satisfied. The crowd at the bar was fun to hang out with after our meal and we stayed out later than anticipated.

Foods and drinks were spot on as always! They need to do something about the noise level though. Add more acoustic tiles.

Neighborhood hangout, with very limited parking ( on-street only). Very busy on weekends; in my opinion, staff had a difficult time keeping up with customers orders, resulting in a forgotten drink and long-ish wait for food. Felt unsafe, seated on a raised platform (3 steps up), with no railing along the length or on the stairs, especially after consumption of alcoholic beverages. Food was good, with a wide selection of drink options. Come and hang out with friends, but watch your step!

Opentable Diner

We had a wonderful time having drinks at the bar and then moved to a table for the delicious pork belly bites and wings. We will definitely return again soon!

I was disappointed. A reservation for my birthday and we were - 1. made to wait before being sat 2. once sat, no one came over to greet us 3. bartender dropped water but said nothing and walked away. It appeared that the place was understaffed and overwhelmed with an unplanned pop due to the nice weather, but as we continued to sit and wait, not one person apologized for the wait or acknowledged us even being there. And that is why no one even noticed that we got up and left.
