“Osteria 166!! Absolutely the best food in Buffalo and our favorite hands down Italian restaurant with the best meatballs I ever had besides my grandma's, that I haven't had since she passed, so these are now the best I can get. The menu is great with something for everyone and whatever you're in the mood for from flatbread pizza to homemade pasta with the most amazing sauces, delicious salads, fantastic steak and the freshest Italian desserts. if you can save room. We have to get them to go home. It's so hard to decide that we get several things and go family style sharing and going around the menu. bravo Nani in the meatballs! they are a must! great friendly service and beautiful atmosphere. sometimes the acoustic music in the bar. what a gem we love walking distance to the theater district, we try to go before shows and park and enjoy the evening starting with the best meal and drinks before a show downtown. Don't think twice about trying this place! make reservations.“

“Best location! Top brunch place ever!“

“Great cocktails and wine selection. Very creative and delicious. Small plates of beef tartare, and shrimp were tasty, with nice portions. Steak pomms frits large plate was delicious. Chocolate budino topped with crushed pistachio and citrus dusting was amazing. Thanks to our son for the gift certificate.“

Our server, Brie, was excellent - very attentive, courteous and personable. We shared the lamb burger and an order of moules - both were fabulously delicious. Prices were very reasonable. We will return in the not too distant future.“

Truly a 5 star experience! We stopped in for a one night stay at the Delavan and so happy that we chose to dine here.“

“Great food. Philly was so flavorful and super hearty. Cool atmosphere with original fireplace, Indian sculptures. Just feels good! Negatives: generic beer and wine menu. No local options. Why? Also the 'host' who sat us was just rude/surly. No reason for that??“

“Total Awesome!! We came from Florida!! The people were so sweet! Treated us like locals!! Thank you!“

“This is an amazing little gem hiding on Maple rd. My daughter and I were looking for a place to eat, something different from the everyday chains and decided to try Roma Thai & Burmese Cuisine. The Samosas are a pocket of perfect spice. I had the Roma Ginger-a healthy and perfect blend of vegatables and giner sauce. The service was excellent! We had a great dining experience and will definately be returning.“

“Always an amazing experience at Vice. Service is always on point, the food is fresh and the cocktails are some of the best in Buffalo.“

“My husband and I attended the cooking class last night. Everything was delicious and we had a great time. We left with a bag of veggie burgers and wraps. I'm on my way to Wegmans for more vegetables. The owner of go veggies, Genga Ponnampalam, proved that healthy food can be delicious. Highly recommended.“

“GOOD FOOD GOOD SERVICE AMELIA IS AMAZING BARTENDER SERVER MY FOOD WAS AMAZING“

“Had the best dinner out in a very long time. Sea Bass special. Not sure I would have ordered it if the dish was written out. Too many things added in that I ultimately didn't know what they were. Not a big pesto fan and the dish came in a bath of creamy green with an odd looking chutney of sorts on top. The green was a fantastic pesto tinged super flavorful sauce and the topping was a grand mix of sweet, savory and nut crunch, a fantastic meal.“

“Chef’s is a true Buffalo gem for authentic Italian comfort food. From the moment we walked in, it felt like stepping back in time—in the best way. The atmosphere is rich with history, and the food absolutely delivers.

We started with the stuffed peppers, which were spicy, flavorful, and the perfect way to kick things off. For our mains, we had both the chicken parm and the eggplant parm—each one was generously portioned and packed with flavor. I tried the “double parm” with both chicken and spaghetti smothered in sauce and cheese. It was delicious, though next time I’d skip the parm on the pasta just for easier eating. Still, no complaints!

The house red wine was smooth and paired beautifully with the meal. And dessert? The cannoli was spot-on—crispy shell, creamy filling, just sweet enough.

Jayme, our server, was fantastic—friendly, attentive, and even packed up our leftovers with care. Portions are hearty, so next time we’ll likely split a dinner if we’re ordering apps again.

If you’re looking for a place that serves up generous portions of classic Italian fare with a side of Buffalo nostalgia, Chef’s is it. We’ll definitely be back!.“

“LaVerdad Cafe is certainly one of my favorite spots in the city. Chef creates amazing flavor profiles, meals and deals. Burnt ends, brisket and oxtails are all amazing. Sides, soups and tacos are top notch. Support this business you will not be disappointed!“

“Went for a Sunday brunch and got the Huevos Rancheros and was pleasantly surprised by how good and delicious it was. I also had the Gypsy Juice as my beverage, along with some Pastelitos (beef) shared for the table. Those were just OK to me and I've had better elsewhere. My party and I sat outside for a nice day out on the patio and some people watching, and despite being the only ones out there while we were dining, we still had great service from our server.“

“La bandeja paisa es buena cantidad para una persona y buen sabor me encanto sobre todo el servicio muy amables Prueben el jugo de lulo riquisimo“

“Oh my gosh, so we went out to dinner this evening after going to the movies. We went to Winfield Pub in South Buffalo. All I can say is WOW. My husband saw that it had a 4.7 star rating and we'd never been there. From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. They have several different beers to offer and even some seasonal ones. Their drink menu is extensive but not daunting and their drinks are super creative. For our starters we got the hop fries with a garlic parmesan aioli which regulars call "crack sauce" I can see why....it's SO good! My husband got the Snout and Stout which is their take on french onion soup but with a pork broth and milk stout added to it with pieces of pork in it. We both tried it and that too was truly delicious it was a great spin on a classic dish. For our entrees my husband got the ribeye and I got the bbq mac and cheese. My husband loved his ribeye it was cooked perfectly and the sides were amazing. My mac and cheese was probably one of the best mac and cheeses I've ever had. They added burnt pork ends and blue cheese to it and it adds such a depth of flavor and richness this comfort food feels so fancy. I enjoyed it thoroughly. For dessert we shared a piece of their Guinness cake. Again, it was rich and delicious the frosting wasn't overly sweet. We brought a little bit of everything home and are looking forward to eating the rest of it tomorrow. Our server was absolutely lovely and so kind and funny. The chef at this restaurant is so creative and thoughtful with every aspect of the experience right down to bringing us the bill in a Christmas Card. This place is 5 stars!“

“The show was amazing, funny and emotional. I loved the show and the actors. The director (Bobby J) is an amazing host and director. While the place is a bit expensive, the show was totally worth it.“

“food is absolutely delicious and the staff is kind. I highly recommend this establishment. please try the mango Lassi with your meal 😋.“

“Excellent pasta dish and very generous portions!“

“I get my spaghetti from Mineo’s. It tastes great & comes with garlic bread & a large side salad. And, there’s enough spaghetti for two dinners. It’s the only place I get take out spaghetti from.“

“Great food, bartenders were awesome. The beers were fresh and there were plenty to choose from. One thing it does need is another TV at the other side of the bar. This would help when there are any home games on, you can watch it from either side of the bar.“

“Went here today for the first time. The food was amazing. Got brisket and blackened fish. Waitress was very friendly and took great care of us. We will definitely go back. Great job to everyone.“

“Fantastic lunch. What a nice surprise. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Loved the food! I tried the Rogan Josh Chicken recommended by the waiter, and it was fantastic. I didn’t really enjoy the roti-it was a bit hard-but overall, the food was great. The place was clean, had a nice ambience, and the staff were friendly. The pistachio kulfi was delicious too!“

“This place is one of my favorite sushi spots. The pricing is fair, the employees are always so wonderful and kind, and the food never fails to exceed my expectations. And the sake selection is fantastic! Truly always a fulfilling experience coming here“

“delish food, friendly service and will definitely be back again! check them out..you'll be glad u did!“
