My first visit to this iconic North Tonawanda staple, my 85-year-old father told me he used to walk here for pizza with his friends after roller skating on Oliver Steet. This had to be back in the mid-1950’s! We had a lovely meal- generous portions, all prepared well with quality ingredients. Service was excellent with experienced, attentive staff. Overall a positive experience that I look forward to repeating with my parents!

I had a small 70th birthday dinners for my brother. And when i called in to make reservation, the owners daughter said we sing and the birthday person gets a choice of pie or cake. So I picked Cannoli cake. I got the bill didnt looked until i went in the car. I was charge for the cake 10.50 plus tax! They never mention to me about any charges.

Pane's is a great place to eat. They have a huge menu with unique food items. This time I had their fish fry, which was excellent and I also ordered their French onion meatballs. They were awesome. I had Lambrusco wine with my dinner. It was delicious and chilled. I was too full for dessert but they had some good looking ones on the menu. The prices are good too.

This is a great little staple in North Tonawanda. The food and service is always consistently wonderful. While we mostly get take out from here, the restaurant has a lovely little outside dining area, especially on the wonderful weather days.

We had a small gathering here after a memorial service. Pane's banquet menu is limited but the offerings are tasty. It was nice that we were each able to order individually and not all have to eat the same entree. The service was great as well.

We had Panes cater for a funeral. Liz was great to work with and the food was plentiful and delicious. Step up was a breeze and we would not hesitate to use Panes in the future.
Thanks again!

Our waitress never brought us water. Had to ask. And when it did come, no ice. She proceeded to take our food order without asking if we wanted drinks. We got our entrées without our salad. Did not receive our appetizer before entrees. Food was cold. She said she was having a bad day. That is not our concern. She still has to do her job. Bathroom was unkept, dirty and out of soap. Panes has been going downhill as far as customer service for years. I hate to say this, but this the last time I’ll be going. I’ve discussed this with other people and they agree. It seems to be a declining restaurant for many years.

We had a private party at Panes. Food was delicious and the staff was so kind and attentive. The communication leading up to the party was so great and helpful in the planning of the party. Will definitely have parties there in the future.
