“So my gf and I visited Country Cottage for the first time last night as we were celebrating 30 yrs together and we heard a lot about this place and decided to try it.When we got there we did have to wait a few minutes to be seated as they were busy and the waitress wanted to sit us at a clean table- not a bad thing!I got turkey soup and than chicken and biscuit dinner and my gf got the Rubin and fries dinner.The food was absolutely fantastic!My gf said it was the best Rubin she had had and my soup and dinner was so good!Thank You Country Cottage for making our 30 yr anniversary dinner not only special but so good!“
“We were rather disappointed to not be able to enjoy the Greek platter due to a lack of one important part of the platter, so ordered other dishes, which were satisfactory, though not what we wanted to celebrate a birthday with. The French onion soup ís delicious!“
“The DJ music can be a bit too loud but the bands are always fun to see. The bartenders are great, if you're not sure what kind of drink you like or may want they can help you figure it out. The raspberry bbq or the strawberry bbq wings/fingers are incredibly good. Get the mac-n-cheese bites, the mini taco nachos, loaded tater tots or any of their other pub grub and you're set for excellence ??.“
“Gorgeous spring day. Decided to find a place by some water we've never been to for lunch. This place caught our eye and we gave it a try. Food was fantastic! Great atmosphere and super relaxing along the creek. Different spin on the stuffed banana peppers but they were incredible. Service was sloooow but we weren't in a hurry and took in the views. Wife had the Turkey Bacon handheld and I went with the Rodeo Burger. Large portions and very fresh and flavorful. Definitely will be heading back again soon.“
“Canal Club is amazing every time I go! This is a wonderful example of what a well run, locally owned business looks like. When you're here, they treat you like family. The food is amazing, and the chef is so friendly. They keep the menu fresh and are always trying different specials which keeps me coming back over and over again. I love the outdoor patio during the summer and the ambiance inside during the colder months. Canal Club should definitely be put on your "must visit" list for locally owned favorites.“
“This place is special. The service is next to none !!outstanding!! The food is extraordinary to say the least!! Period!! The cocktails are unique and their nuances are more than refreshing. Jake Strawser the owner is the real deal and honestly a pleasure to call my friend. There are now two Ian’s that will not disappoint you. Ian the exemplary Chef and Ian the wonderful Barman!!! Make your reservations now. Trust me.“
“We started our tasty journey with the Olives, featuring the Castelvetrano and Cuquillo varieties. They have just a hint of orange that makes a boring bowl of olives a standout taste experience.The Potato Latkes were up next, served with tobiko taramasalata and tarragon. The combination is absolutely incredible, striking a perfect balance between texture and flavor...perfection.For our entrees, our group had the Ravioli Dauphine and the Lamb Meatball Bomber. The ravioli, filled with tender lamb shank and drizzled with beurre blanc, accompanied by scorzonera and crispy kale, is fantastic. The Lamb Meatball Bomber is delicious with its kale, sumac onions, and garlic yogurt.However, the star of the show was undoubtedly the Braised Chicken Leg, paired with black futsu squash, lentils, sage, and endive. It's no exaggeration when I say this is the best meal I have ever had in my entire life. The depth of flavor, the perfect cook on the chicken, and the harmony of the accompaniments is simply unparalleled.We had the Vanilla Panna Cotta with lemon, honey, and toffee for dessert. I have no words that adequately capture its sheer perfection.The Little Club delivered an exceptional dining experience. If I could give them six stars, I would. Every dish was a testament to the chef's mastery over their craft. I cannot recommend The Little Club highly enough; it is an absolute must-visit for anyone who appreciates fine dining at its best.“
“We went here for dinner one night, and liked it so much we came back for lunch the next day! The service is great, our waitress (got lucky and had her both times) was so sweet and she gave absolutely killer recommendations. Everything we ordered was incredible, drinks and food. I'm gluten free, but intolerant not allergic. They have a great selection of fully GF options (no cross contamination/shared fryer), but also have a bunch of stuff that is technically GF if cross contamination isn't an issue for you, the staff was really knowledgeable about the menu and allergens and was able to answer all my questions. So if you can handle cross contamination/shared fryers, ask them what dishes would be okay for you!We tried:The Game Burger: it was Lamb when we went, we both got it and absolutely loved it.The Bacon Jam Burger: my boyfriend absolutely loved thisThe pot roast sandwich: super tender meat, delishThe calamari: this is so good, I can't describe it. Super buttery, and served with a little bit of spicy peppers. It is divine.The sweet potato fries: crispy and delish, and the honey butter is next levelThe Chocolate Oblivion: it's their only gluten free dessert, but it is so good. I was nervous when they described it was a "dense" flour free torte, but it has an amazing smooth texture almost like a mousse and a cheesecake had a baby. It is rich and decadent, we split it and CRUSHED it. ?Drinks:My bf enjoyed a few beers, and their beer list is HUGE. great selection.Bourbon maple smash: strong, but super tasty. Not very sweet, but I prefer thatVanilla Chai White Russian: this was my favorite, not super sweet but absolutely incredible. It's very well balanced, and just so freaking good.Cranberry Gin Fizz: Made with my favorite gin (the botanist) and it is SO tasty, perfectly sweet and tart and just a refreshing easy sipper.Just go here, it'll be worth it!Dietary restrictions: So many allergen and dietary preference options, and the staff knows their stuff on all of the above! You can probably be accommodated here, and won't have to guess if your dietary restrictions are understood or if what you're eating is okay for you.“
“The steak special was a grade 9 wagyu steak which is comparable to A5 Japanese wagyu and it definitely lived up to its name. It was very delicious insanely tender melt In your mouth steak with mushrooms and truffles grated on top. The waiter knew an enormous amount of information about the food on the menu and was able to answer all questions we had. I personally recommend you come here and let the chef work his magic it was an amazing meal. I will definitely be coming back here again.“
“I've eaten in at dick and Jenny's before and it was cute, nice service, just dark. This time I did take out and it was so good! I got the chicken club which was grilled chicken, ham, melted cheese, bacon, lettuce tomato and it was delicious. My friend had the ribs and grits and also raved about how good they were. Would definitely get their take out again!“
“Great fast food feel for Vegan meals, I don't mean that in a bad way at all. We ordered the Philly cheesecake and chicken tenders. Both were fantastic! Will definitely be stopping in more in the future.Vegetarian options: The menu is actually fully veganDietary restrictions: They list out what's going into there product. Staff is knowledgeable and approachable if you have strict dietary concerns.Parking: Public on street parking“
“Oliver's Restaurant is easily amongst the nicest, upscale, and classy dining spots in Buffalo, NY. My first experience here was on Valentine's Day, where there I got a delicious mocktail and my boyfriend the Oliver's Manhattan! Although we were amongst the younger crowd, the staff did not make us feel less important as we were treated with the upmost respect. What made our dining experience was absolutely the restaurants layout and cleanliness! Thank you to the staff who made it a memorable experience I will always recommend.“
“Great meal, great service, comfy, cozy, you can wear jeans, separate bar from dining area, easy access. Clean and neat. Prettiest ladies restroom I've seen in years!Vegetarian options: Linguini.Parking: Needs repaying. Potholes abound.Kid-friendliness: As long as they are well behaved.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access except for the parking lot potholes.“
“We visited the Dapper Goose during a weekend away to Buffalo. The menu looked delightful online so we made a reservation. We were welcomed warmly as soon as we entered and our drinks arrived shortly after we were seated. We ordered many of the small plates which arrived in 2 parts. My husband raved about the green beans and carrots, which is unusual since he’s more of a meat eater. I loved the octopus. There was not one dish that disappointed. The drinks were inventive, unique and delicious. We loved our visit and will return.“
“I stopped in for lunch with my daughter for the first time. The two ladies that were working were outgoing and welcoming, with fun personalities. You can tell the customers love them by how they react when they come in. It was fun to just watch them interact. The food was good. I had the reuben and it came on huge slices of bread with delicious fries. My daughter had loaded tots and said they were delicious, as well. The restaurant was clean and the bathroom was too. We only wish this little gem was closer to home for us. We will be back again when in the area.“
“Had an amazing dinner here on Friday night! I wish I remembered to take a pic, but when I was presented my fish fry I began to dig in immediately! Three people got the beer battered fish fry while I got the Cajun which is grilled. My fish looked so great that everyone at the table had a bite of mine! It was served with slaw and choice of a 2nd side so I got the baked potato after dinner the table split a giant piece of banana pudding cake! Unbelievably huge and delicious! Always happy when I come here and I look forward to coming back. They offer fish fry's on Wednesday as well as Friday, so if you have an early craving for a fish fry... just stop in.“
“Phenomenal! I had heard amazing things about Hutch's for years and finally made it in for a surprise birthday dinner from my friends. Each and every one of us absolutely loved and raved over our meals and drinks. Some of the freshest oysters and a delicious meatball to start our night, with espresso martini's and wine. I had the pork chop special with pear chutney and WOW, the biggest and moist cut of pork I've had with an amazing flavor profile. I had the fruit cookie for dessert and it was absolutely divine. Our server, Amanda, was so friendly and helpful, suggesting apps, working with my friend to find the perfect red wine for her, and even humoring my other friend to pick a meal and surprise her- and she picked well! Good service makes all the difference and we can't say enough about her and the atmosphere here. I have friends who routinely come to Hutch's and all I can say is I've been influenced and hope to return much more frequently! Thanks for an amazing dinner experience to celebrate my 30th!“
“SZND is a unique upscale restaurant in the city of Buffalo! I love dining in their sophisticated intimate setting. Everything about this restaurant is fantastic! They provide excellent service. Their food is seasoned to perfection! I highly recommend the blackened artichokes for an appetizer. The fettuccine & scallops and halibut are two dishes not to be missed! I've dined here on several occasions. It's been consistently wonderful every time! Their address is on Hertel but the entrance is around the corner. The sign is easy to miss. Parking can be a bit of a challenge. There is a parking lot across the street I usually have luck finding a space there. It's definitely worth making a trip out here!“
“Went for brunch for a birthday. Food was excellent. Views were wonderful and staff were friendly and helpful. Family already asking me when we can go back again. Rarely leave reviews, but felt compelled to for this experience. Set in one of the most beautiful parts of “
“One our first visit when we arrived it was pretty busy and seemed frantic. The staff and who appeared to be a manager were speed walking everywhere. We looked at each other and the bartender looked up, smiled and said quite friendly "someone will be right with you". And in about 10 seconds they were. We got sat, and took a good look at the menu. Our server walked up after a few minutes and greeted us. We got welcomed, told the specials, asked if we had any questions, answered our questions, took our drink order and was politely told he'd be back with our drinks and to take our food order. HOW NICE! Service, actual good old fashioned professional restaurant service! He promptly came back with the drinks, chatted a bit and took our order. As we waited we watched the restaurant show. They were still busy. The bar was full. All the employees were moving fast but safely. Especially the manager she was zooming. Helping the bar, clearing tables, seating customers, chatting with customers, running food. It was actually very entertaining. The food shows up quickly. My wife had the Rodeo burger and I had the Buttermilk fried chicken sandwich. She really like the burger and I was AMAZED with the chicken sandwich. And what was funny was I generally don't order a chicken anything when I'm out. But when asked what was surprisingly good that's what he recommended and boy was I happy. The rest of the meal and dining experience didn't disappoint. We chatted with the manager and complimented her entire staff and food. We now have a new restaurant on our "Proven" list.“
“Okay the food, the setting, the layout!!!! 10/10. Self service for food- using a QR code that is placed on tables for the servers to run the food out to you PIPING HOT! Seat yourself and water and napkins and plates and wet-wipes (you’ll need them) to share were all easily accessible with both entrances.Went with a couple of friends and we tried:Pretzel and queso app ($14)- STUNNING, queso was a perfect blend of Smokey and smooth and the pretzels came in rods (4) and were piping hot 10/10Wingnutz dip ($13)- I know this is what they are known for but I personally like my chicken wing dip, spicy. The chicken was tender though and came with a massive plate of fresh chips. 8.5/10Spring Rolls ($13)- YUM- fresh out of the fryer laying on top of a bed of kimchi (not too soured or prickly but the perfect complement) and a sweet Chile sauce. Really fresh and crisp 9.5/10Last Dragon Tacos ($18)- WOW- these were super flavorful and fresh even with the very generous meat portion. Sometimes it can be too overwhelming, but they nailed this one between the kimchi and pickled red onions giving the taco the bite it needs, to the very tender brisket, and the sauce that adds a kick! Dynamite! 10/10Roasted Cauliflower Taco ($15)- packs quite the punch in a mouthful- really tender cauliflower that soaked up all of the delicious sauce served with. 8.5/10Wingnutz Chicken Sandwich ($16) with their Cajun fries. Note for the fries- absolute perfection, LOVE a fry that is just about half an inch thick- gives a great crust and super fluffy inside. Their chicken sandwich was MASSIVE, genuinely think they used half a chicken on it, soaked in a hot honey brine- they have perfected a Nashville style fried chicken and DONT forget the pickles (thick cut)“
“Highly recommend Grezi on Main! We came from out of town to visit with family and had the pleasure of dining at this local restaurant. We enjoyed starting out with a cocktail (The Oliver), Autumn Salad, Pan Seared Scallops, Jumbo Chicken Wings and Brussels Sprout Bruschetta. We enjoyed the Grezi Smash Burger as our entree. Then ended the night with 3 different desserts. Food was phenomenal, staff were friendly and decor was elegant!! This Buffalo restaurant is outstanding!“
“What a great dinner I just shared with a friend! The whole idea of this restaurant is based on Anthony Bourdain's quote about sharing food with friends. And share we did! We split the oysters, parmesan truffle fries, the Tuscan flatbread, and the impossible sliders. We also each got a glass of wine. (No sharing that lol) The food was delicious, and the wine was fantastic, the service was best of all! We got lots of recommendations and suggestions, and we were well taken care of. I was delighted to see that almost everything was able to be gluten free! I had a lot of tasty options to choose from. Overall, we had a great time, and I plan to go back with my fiancé. The experience we shared would have been great for a date.“
“I am most sure why this place was almost empty on a Saturday night…we were a party of seven and after about 8:45 and the early diners left it was empty. You all are missing out! Our service was attentive and friendly. The drinks were well balanced and priced well. I had the grapefruit Cosmo which sounds odd but it was refreshing and balanced. I had the fish fry which was a LARGE piece of fish with Cole slaw and pasta salad. Normally, the sides are kind of an afterthought. Not here. Both had flavor, freshness and weren’t put in those little paper side cups. The fry batter stayed on and you could actually eat both and the batter at the same time. I have found in Buffalo that oftentimes the batter doesn’t adhere and you eat just plain fish…not my favorite. My partner had the burge and she told me the beef actually had flavor. She asked for medium well and got it. Usually when you ask for medium well you either get medium and well done. Hers was cooked just right. My other friend got the shrimp and grits. It was huge. She actually got about 6-8 ( I didn’t count) but knew it wasn’t four which a lot of times is the standard. The were good sized and she finished the entire dish which is unusual for her. She was t was delicious. Another person for the rack of lamb and he said it was phenomenal. Truthfully I was talking so much I didn’t pay attention to the other food at the table lol. During the meal a gentleman came over and asked how our meal was and we all commented that it was great! He seemed very happy and thanked us for coming and would enjoy seeing us again. We stayed and had drinks right up until closing and never felt rushed. The bar still had patrons that I am sure are regulars and everyone seemed to be having a great time. One of the owners came over and and how we had heard of them and I told her that I used Google and Yelp and they had gotten great reviews! She went on to tell us about their great patio and to be sure and use their parking lot as well. As you are are aware parking at a restaurant in Buffalo can be challenging. Having a parking lot is a premium! We can’t wait to enjoy the patio this summer but will go back again for dinner and drinks before then! You all are missing out if you haven’t tried this place!Parking: Side of building with access to the patio as well.“
“The food is always good. Sometimes even excellent. The ambience is perfect, and if you are lucky enough to go there, during a rainstorm, sit in the arboretum with the glass ceilings and the Koi pond. Wonderful vibrations. The Wait staff are friendly and knowledgeable. They have a full bar and depending upon who the bartender is, your drinks will be from good to very good. This place does not Disappoint.“
“Was looking for a casual & unique brewery on a road trip. What a winner! Very attentive and friendly staff. Awesome assortment of craft beers. Best of all NO KIDS during this visit. Yes, I’m an adult who goes to breweries for an ADULT experience. Not keen to be surrounded by wee ones when trying to relax and enjoy an adult beverage. Will be back for sureParking: Limited spots near the brewery.“
“My boyfriend and I can go to any restaurant when I come up to visit him, and it’s always me asking to come back here. I have never been disappointed in the food, service, or wait and have had some incredible dishes here. I will definitely be returning! Special shoutout to the club sandwhich here, the bread is god tier.“
“Went on a Tuesday before they started their open mic. They have new vegan food here and HOLY. Buffalo is severely lacking in the vegan/vegetarian food realm and this was perfect. I got a 'chicken' and waffles and it was incredible. They also had curry onion rings, which I've never seen before (not pictured) and were also bangin'.“
“Wow! This place really pays attention to the details. Food quality is excellent. Service above and beyond. Great atmosphere. The people who run this place care about your dining experience... check it out worth the drive to Grand Island! You will not be disappointed!!!“
“My family and I went to visit today and we absolutely fell in love with the actual diner feel of this establishment. Walking in was so cozy on this rainy Thursday! For sure a family friendly place. Staff and service were very sweet and attentive. Even gave my little dude some crayons and paper to draw on while we waited for our food. We ordered the kids silver dollar chocolate chip pancakes, mushroom and Swiss burger with fries (fries we're well seasoned and overall phenomenal), and my fiance had their biscuits and gravy(they were generous with the gravy ). We enjoyed every bite of our food. Nothing left behind. Parking was plentiful, and an easy place to find right on the boulevard. They have booths available as well as regular tables. Open everyday except Mondays. Wish we had photos to share but unfortunately the food disappeared pretty quickly. A little additional note: food does take a bit to come out (which was fine for us) as I believe everything is made to order and def worth the wait. Thank you for serving us today. We will definitely be coming back“
“Went for my engagement dinner with my partner and was not disappointed! Firstly, we had the best server who was so friendly and accommodating as we initially started out outside, but then my partner was a little cold, so were able to move inside without any interruption to the service experience. She was the best. In terms of the food, I opted for the Pasta Bolognese, which was very yummy. Definitely wish I had some leftovers. My partner who was in a rabbit sort of mood, I suppose and got all appetizers for her dinner, including the bread basket, mussels, and clams. She seemed to really enjoy them a lot, though she mentioned she didn't care as much for the sauce base they were both in. For drinks, I opted for a Classic Cosmopolitan and she had Prosecco. I really enjoyed my Cosmo! Almost got a second one but resisted, haha. This place is definitely worth a visit if you're looking for a nicer than average dinner out with well above average deliciousness.“
“Excellent. The food is beautifully prepared, nicely presented, comes out at the right temperature. The wine list is more than adequate. Despite the crowding, they will be ready for you at your scheduled reservation time. The prices are reasonable. The service is ok. The Wait staff is well-versed in the subtleties of the menu. Even the bus staff are helpful beyond their job description. Due I think to the well-deserved popularity of the establishment, service can be a bit slow. The bar is magnificently stocked with hard to find bourbons at your disposal. There is real talent in that kitchen. If it wasn't for delays between certain courses, and waiting a long time for the check, 800 Maple would've earned the fifth star.“
“Hosted a party for 40 people in their back room and they were so lovely and easy to coordinate with! Tony was amazing in the booking process and worked with us to create a delicious vegetarian menu and our bartender Edie was amazing. Highly recommend for a private party (max 50ish people probably).“
“It's a nice family restaurant! We went on a Thursday night and it was a little busy but nothing crazy. We did wait a while for our order but it was for a a large group of people. My minor complaints are the waitress never came back to our table to check on us after dropping our food off (everyone has always come back at least once). My husband even had to chase her down for the check. And my friend didn't finish his burger bc it was ordered well-done but it was more like medium well. Prices are fair for down home cooking though! Great selection of cocktails.“
“My favorite bar/restaurant in all of Buffalo, for a well-rounded night! I'm surprised it's not a common recommendation on wing lists as their wings, especially the weck wings, are 10/10. I'd recommend going Wednesday-Saturday so you can also get the Candyman pizzas (any of them, candyman style!), and sitting on the Candyman side for craft cocktails or Caputis side for a great beer menu. The section between Caputi's and Candyman has a pool table, dart boards, and a couple pinball machines so it really is the perfect spot for friends, dates, or even just to go by yourself and mingle with the staff and regulars.“
“We came to Buffalo from Pittsburgh for a few days and randomly picked Webster's for dinner. This place is simply a hidden gem. The food was incredible, and service... I was SO IMPRESSED by the services. It just seems lately (post covid) that people don't know what the service is anymore. Every single staff member was dressed to impress and our server Tom looked so sharp, was helpful, friendly, attentive and polite which just made this experience 10/10. I cannot recommend this place enough equally because of the food quality and selection and excellent service.“
