Stopped in and the vibes are great!! Love the fries and the creamy dip they have, soo good. The drinks are also pretty good but nothing to remember tbh, wouldn’t go for that. It’s cuter than I expected inside idk what I was expecting tbh lol
We went today for a nice Valentines dinner. Banana Pepper Dip is so good, not spicy at all, my husband had the mushroom risotto and he loved it, I had lobster gnocchi, to die for!

Come here periodically as a local and always good vibes! From the owner coming during busy hours to personally check all way down the staff list super friendly and accommodating would definitely recommend to anyone in town wanting to grab good bites. So good I always forget to take photos haha.

We had a great meal at The Place last night however we felt slightly rushed and like we were being pushed out around 9:30. We were in the middle of eating our dinner and the staff reached over our plates to take the candles off our table when they didn’t close until 11. Also, the $2 kitchen appreciation fee is quite ridiculous and should be reconsidered. I have been coming to The Place for years but was not very impressed last night with the service.

Was our first visit to The Place. What an amazing evening. The food was delicious and the service was outstanding. Lately its been difficult to find good food or good service. This was an outstanding delightful experience! My wife had the Harvest Salad with Chicken. And I had the Banana Pepper Pasta with Chicken. We also had 2 Tom and Jerry's each. Delicious.

Well 6 ladies came out tonight to taste the famous Tom & Jerry at The Place. They were just OK...but the somewhat pricey dinners we ordered were beyond acceptable! All except the salad were truly horrible. The Salmon was charred and way over cooked, the Banana Pepper Pasta was so hot it was not edible, the Lemon Risotto was actually rice, and there was no lemon or any flavor to be found! Hard to imagine that this place gets great reviews because that was the worst dining experience I've had in a long time! Truth.
Had a great lunch with an excellent Bloody Mary. Two dollar kitchen appreciation fee seems ridiculous.

The two of came in to a nearly empty restaurant and were seated at a tiny 2 top and were told that to have a booth we would have to order, wait for our food and be gone in less than an hour. We were seated at a booth and the manager (we assume) watched as we went back to get our menus. To this point none of the interactions felt friendly. Once seated in a booth the waitress informed us that the kitchen does not have any milk, so we settled on water to drink. We looked at the menu and didn’t yet see anything that interested us. And we noticed the $2 table fee. We didn’t agree to the fee and didn’t want to feel rushed and not seeing the waitress we left out the front door and walked to our car in their lot. As we walked the manager bulleted out of the side door and followed us… very creepy. As we sat in the car we looked for another place to eat on our phones. The manager stood behind our car and kept looking up at us and rapidly typing on his phone. He made eye contact with me in my side view mirror a number of times but never approached or spoke to us. He never put the phone to his ear so wasn’t just looking for a quiet or private place to talk.
It was a very strange experience. It was not pleasant from the moment we walked in until we left the parking lot.
Very strange.

I love their menu. Never had a bad meal here.
Once through my order got mixed up. I wanted chicken salad and they brought me out egg salad
I would have given them 5 but the extra 2 dollars added to the bill for kitchen help?! 👎

This place is a true Buffalo staple. The mac & cheese came out bubbling hot in a cast iron skillet creamy, rich and exactly the kind of comfort food that hits after a long day. I paired it with their French Blonde cocktail, which was light, citrusy and perfectly balanced. You can tell they care about quality here, from the drinks to the atmosphere. A cozy neighborhood gem worth coming back to every time I’m in town!

Great dining experience! The lobster roll was good, large chunks of lobster with a grilled bun. The espresso martini was good, not The best I've had, but good. Staff we encountered we nice, polite and knowledgeable. Atmosphere was quite nice. Very busy when we were there, but you can still hear the music. Very happy customer, thank you!
