“I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!! I give it 10 ⭐️!The food was amazing, the portions huge snd everything is made from scratch. I had the Polish platter; I chose fresh Polish sausage ( no joke it went from one side of the plate to the other), sauerkraut with mushrooms, huge potato pancake, and added 2 pierogi. All delicious. The table next to us ordered the cabbage roll, you could get 2 meals out of it! Service was fast and friendly. I'll go back and try the Italian side because they make their own pasta. Go! You won't be disappointed.“

“the good we had for dinner which was delicious.“

“My daughter and I had a wonderful post Christmas lunch. Our server was very polite and helpful. The food was delicious. Tables are a bit close together and the cold air came in when the door was opened. But otherwise, highly recommended D'Avolio on Main St., Wmsv🙂“

“Ate dinner for the first time here yesterday and the food was excellent. Ordered the calamari appetizer and it was light and flaky, honestly probably the best I’ve ever had. The bolognese was very tasty as well and our server Jennifer was great. We will be back.“

“This is a great place right at the crossroads in the village of Orchard Park. Very nice interior lots of rooms with well spaced tables and elegantly done. Food was excellent at a moderate price and I had a dish that I have never had any anywhere before that was just spectacular. Very romantic place as well for those that would like that.“

“I LOVE IT HERE! ❤️ One of my favorite restaurants - hands down. Staff are SO nice and friendly and everything I’ve tried is very good. Please come try it! (I ask for extra parm and they DELIVER)“

“Fast take out service and friendly employees. Excellent Fish Fry, Fries, side of Pasta, and other co-side items plus the Fettuccine Alfredo with Chicken and Shrimp was excellent and two meals for meal which includes 2 pieces of bread and butter. Will come back again and recommended!“

“Another awesome experience, our server was Lexi and she was amazing, knew how to joke around and took our antics in stride. Extremely courteous, attentive, friendly and made our dining experience a great one. We we’re at the Transit location a month prior for a club dinner and had a great time then too. If you go and have either Lexi or Lydia as your server - just know you’re going to have a great time! They both went above and beyond. Food was good, service was incredible. Our visit was only disappointing in the fact that we had to leave. I don’t eat out often but the last 2 times I’ve chosen Olive Garden on Transit and do not regret it at all. Hopefully those servers are there the next time we go!“

“GREAT Italian Food, so many options and the fish fry is HUUUUUGE!“

“Great food. Good portions“

“I used to live near there and ate there regularly. Moved away 10 years ago, but was back in the area and had to stop in. The food is as good as it always was. Hubby had to have the fried chicken, his favorite! The food was good, the service friendly and attentive...we'll have to go back again!“

“Best Pizza in the area. Tastes like the way I remember pizza to tast.“

“love your pizza wish I could have gotten a whole slice“

“My family and I love heading to Sweet Emilia's for delicious ice cream! And when I'm in the mood for Italian takeout, Andiamo is right next door. The other day, I ordered takeout from Andiamo, and there was a little mix-up with my order, but the manager, Dave, was fantastic! He went above and beyond to make things right and even treated us to some ice cream as a kind gesture. Big shoutout to Dave! If you find yourself in the East Amherst area, check out Andiamo for takeout, and don’t forget to stop by Sweet Emilia's for dessert! You won’t regret it!“

“Pizza was pretty good. Would be cool if the owner would pay me back the money hes owed me for 2 years“

“Good food. That’s why we went.“

“We love the chicken bacon ranch and the Italian rainbow pizza. Highly recommend!“

“Outstanding from beginning to end. Best food I've ever had. Service was wonderful too. Highly recommend the short rib and calamari.“

“Are waitress Lucy was fabulous. The food was delicious.“

“Spent basically my whole summer here. Love it!! Only downside is I don’t think people respect tee times and even if you’re right at your tee time there is someone sitting right behind you waiting. Maybe they need to spread out tee times a little better. As nobody likes to feel rushed or watched when trying to golf. But love the quality of the courses and usually can get in for a round any time they are rarely filled up!“

“Dinner on a Saturday night for 4, glad we made reservations as it seemed to fill up fast. Service was friendly, but a bit hands off (Did not get offered any refill of water after a 1st glass). Complimentary bread service was decent and served alongside the soup/salad that was included with most entrees. Others said the house salads were quite impressive. The Rosa sauce was a highlight. Chicken and veal parms were well received, as was the eggplant. Whole group got lukewarm pasta, but luckily we had filled up by that point and just left it for a doggie bag. Tiramisu for dessert impressed the group - worth squeezing it in!“

“I'm never disappointed comming. the service there is amazing and fast. the waiters/ waitresses go above and beyond to make sure your experience is top notch. 10/10 would recommend.“

“We had our ladies golf league banquet at Rizzos on East Amherst. They did a terrific job! Discounted drinks at the bar beforehand and the service at dinner was excellent. All the dinners served to our group were prompt, hot and delicious!“

“The service was top notch. From the Reservation Desk, the Maitre' D, our waiter Chris, and all the staff...just excellence in service. Food was fabulous! Cocktail and wine menu are excellent. 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.“

“Awesome Food, lousy jingle“

“My husband & I have been coming here for years. I have never been disappointed with any of the menu items. 😋 Another thing that I love is the music that is played as you’re dining. It’s pretty much 60’s love songs and it’s one of the many reasons I keep coming back.“

“10/10 would recommend. Amazing food. Not one sub bar option. Everything is perfect. Great beers and wines. Very nice people working and owning the restaurant. Perfect for the casual night cap or a very nice romantic night out“

“A family favorite for us, whenever we are out in the Clarence area, GM is a must stop, just can't pass up the amazing service and food!“

“Great food decent prices nice staff great atmosphere 4 12 stars“

“Thank you once again to Marcos for providing an excellent lunch to our department at Millard Fillmore Suburban Radiology!!!! Always a treat!!!“

“Once again we had an exceptional dinner at Trattoria Aroma this evening. From the warm and genuine welcome to our excellent dessert it was pure pleasure! The food is always delicious with a unique presentation and excellent prices! In the past 30 years we have always been accustomed and greeted by name by the wonderful owners and staff! Continues to be our go to favorite in Buffalo!“

“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.“

“This may be the first time a fish fry hasn't disappointed me! So crunchy, delicious batter, and even though I waited a while to eat it, it wasn't soggy in the least. The mac salad and tartar sauce were on point as well. For the price, you can't beat it!“

“Amazing food and wonderful service!!!“

“The food was excellent and our waitress was absolutely wonderful, friendly, attentive, and on top of everything.

However, the seating policy was a bit frustrating. My cousin called ahead to explain that she was planning a surprise 40th birthday dinner for a party of 18. My cousin confirmed with the manager that we would be seated even if the birthday girl arrived last (so the surprise wouldn’t be ruined). When we got there, the staff initially refused to seat us and the hostess said the manager said no — even though it had been pre-approved (maybe a different manager at the time of the call and didn't communicate to the next on shift or the staff?).

After a small, friendly conversation, they did go ahead and seat us (finally but too close to the birthday girl arrival), and the rest of the evening went smoothly.

Great food and service overall, but the inconsistency with the seating policy made the start of the night more stressful than it needed to be.“

“This was my first time here, and WOW! I ordered the "Chairman of the Board" and it was fantastic. The turkey was tender & juicy. The roll was super fresh. It wasn't heavy in my stomach like fried food can be. People in my group also ordered a "How-You_Doin?" sangwich and "Hey Sonny!" burger. They were both very pleased and we all agreed that we wanted to order from this restaurant again soon. My order was ready pretty fast.“

“I slept on this place for years after I actually tried them last year realized what I was missing if you haven't had ferris what you waiting for?!?!“

“was there for my birthday on 3/11 with my kids .we had a very nice time .“

“Tried their pizza for the first time yesterday and will definitely return again for another. It’s a family owned business that’s been around for a long time, the type I like to support. Fresh dough, a traditional pizza oven, and just the right amount of everything, prepared by hand. Also enjoyed my conversation with the polite gentleman that took my order and made the pizza. The best part is I fed my family without dirtying a plate at home for five dollars per person, with leftovers. Can’t beat that!“

“Friendly, family-like service; amazing soup, awesome Italian food imports! <3“

“I wanted to commend the great service we received tonight at dinner. The young man working was outstanding from start to finish, even with being the only one working in the restaurant. The food was incredible as well! We definitely found our new go-to spot in the area!“
