13 Best American Restaurants near South Wales

“I would say a decent greasy spoon for breakfast. Very fast service, food was good but my only issue was that there is a life size cardboard cutout of Donald Trump staring at you while eating. First, there is enough politicking everywhere so please let me eat in peace & second, it is very creepy!!!! I don't care who you vote for as long as you vote but leave your politics at home. I will visit again & have to sit with my back to it, lol.“

“When I'm in Buffalo or Rochester and go looking for wings, this is the kind of place that hits the mark! I took some coworkers here for dinner and everyone enjoyed! We were there for wings, but also shared the pizza rolls, cheese curds, and beef on weck. Order extra and save for tomorrow's lunch! And anyone who's not from the area...ranch is for salads and blue cheese is for wing dipping...:>)“

“My friend and I were there for lunch The food was excellent. We had the butternut soup, quiche, and turkey jambalaya. They were kind enough to take my 97 year old friend back down the hill in their golf cart. We will definitely go there again.“

“Is it strange that my favorite restaurant is in a gas station? Charlie the butchers, located within the Marathon gas station on Main Street in East Aurora is spectacular. Not only do they have what you would expect, delicious roast beef on weck, they have delicious sides and daily specials like baked ham, meatloaf, corned beef, and prime rib. The service is fast and friendly - and the prices are very reasonable for what you get. It's just lovely.“

“My husband and I had the best dinner ever at the Dog Bar on New Year’s Eve. I had surf and turf and he had the sea bass. Everything was cooked to perfection. The service couldn’t have been better! What a wonderful way to welcome in the New Year! We will definitely be having dinner there again soon!“

“It was very enjoyable! I love old restaurants that make you take a step back in time! Fun seeing photos they have displayed from long ago. We went for Taco Tuesday and tried the deep fried tacos. They happily customized the contents to our preference and the tacos were so good! Crunchy outside coating and not greasy (which I was assuming they would be)! Prices were really reasonable , too! It was a nice drive to Colden and a perfect little "date night"! The staff were super friendly and helpful, too! It was our first time there, and will not be our last!“

“Have enjoyed everything I've ever ordered, and at reasonable prices.. the service is sometimes a bit slow, since there is usually one server, who is also the bartender .. still worth it ..Parking: Probably can squeeze in about 15 cars, motorcycle parking in front“

“Cool place to go. They have a bowling alley, an old school Bowling alley. Also the food was pretty good and the staff working there were super friendly. I have never been there at night nor during the summer for their outdoor events, but I would like to experience that someday. It looks like it would be a good time.“

“I keep asking myself why I don't come here more often. Over the years, I have never had a bad meal at this place. Plus, if you're just stopping for a drink, the bar has always been pretty fun - always a nice group of locals, down to earth folk here. The menu was a really good mix of options with plenty of choices for everyone, no matter what you're in the mood for. Located just a short hop outside of East Aurora, I always find it's worth my drive from Williamsville to do a little shopping in town and grab a lunch or dinner at Kodiak Jack's. My latest choice was the prime rib and stuffed hot pepper sandwich. It was some of the most tender prime rib I have ever had on a sandwich. Chicken wings were half price, so we started with wings as an appetizer to split between us. The wings had a nice light crisp on the outside, and were tender and juicy on the inside. Perfection. Portions are hardy, there's no skimping here. If you're looking for a new restaurant option and want to turn it into an afternoon, drive on out to East Aurora and see some of the most beautiful shops and have a lovely meal.“

“My wife and I go here any chance we get. The atmosphere is comfortable. Either in the warmer months out back or inside when it is snowing looking out. Nicer than home with the ambiance. Food is always great. Drinks are to die for and desserts are sinfully good... A++++“

“Wow. My coworker knew about my love of French onion soup and insisted I make the trek from the north towns to this place. I can say, there wasn’t much reason for our family to travel to East Aurora after one of fav kids museums moved, but now I have a reason to make the haul! We stopped by here after taking our kid’s to a gym in the area and I’m glad we did. I’d say that this might be my favorite French onion soup on the basis of the rich flavors alone. My wife and I went back and forth comparing it to our number one. I felt this is a little less cheesy than my typical favorite (or maybe it was slightly more cooked than I’m used to) but the flavor of the broth and ingredients are the best. We weren’t ready for dinner so we just ordered the soups and got fries for the kids. My daughter was raving about the fries and the service. She kept saying “we have to come back.” I agree!“

“It is very clear everything there is FRESH MADE! There were 10 of us and everyone was happy. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger that was clearly hand made patty. The wife had chicken wing soup and we hadn't anything that good since in years!!Where else can you get good big breakfast for dinner???“

“I have made it to order Cubans wherever I go, it's one of my favorite sandwiches. The Cuban Melt at Rookies today was among the best I've ever had. If not the best, a close 2nd. I wasn't even planning on stopping this afternoon for food, but as we were walking by decided to stop in. So glad we did. The server was great. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in the area!“
