“A very quiet day at the tasting room. The atmosphere was excellent, the weather was good so we enjoyed the outdoor seating. The Bartender and the wait staff were prompt, friendly, and talkative. And the beer, all good. Many of the selections were exclusive to the tasking room.”

“Probably the best restaurant from Erie to Buffalo. Simple ingredients, elevated. 10 orders in 17 minutes, plated. Every element on each dish- perfected. I did not expect to find a new favorite restaurant, but here we are, each member of our group aged 5-60+, with the kind ofsmile that only comes from stomach-happiness.”

“Absolutely dynamite. I'm visiting from out of town, and as somebody who lives next to the ocean: the fish here is *fresh*!

I'll admit it, I'm picky about sushi. I was spoiled by being introduced to the cuisine by a family of Japanese immigrants from the Kobe region. But I'll break down exactly how this place knocks this out of the park.

A lot of places will charge you an arm and a leg for a roll that's mostly rice. Not the case here. The rice is the binder that holds and compliments the contents, not the main star of the roll. These folks go easy on the rice (which is the perfect tangy flavor you want from proper sushi rice) without shortchanging the full-mouth feel and sweet vinegar taste. The rice is also properly sticky, without being practically glue-textured.

The nori is another part lots of places will short the customer. A poor-quality nori will act more like leather, making you chew through stringy seaweed to finally swallow the bite. This place uses an excellent quality nori that adds a very mild "seabreeze" flavor and flakes apart readily when you chew, but doesn't fall apart when you're trying to pick up your food. Absolutely perfect.

So not only is this place not skimping on flavor or texture or freshness, it's also not charging you for mostly filler: each roll has generous portions of fish, veggies, sauces, and tempura.

Oh! The tempura! A lot of tempura goes overboard, either slathering the items in batter or overcooking them to either rubbery consistency or ground-glass-shards sharp. This place has the perfect crispy crunch without it being the Extra Crispy Recipe from KFC, and cooks the contents to perfection without heating them to death. 10/10.

Also: the miso soup? Gotta be made in-house. Rare is the restaurant that goes through the effort to make miso soup beyond a dried packet in hot water, but this place does. The broth is smooth without a trace of the grittiness that gives away the just-add-water shortcut. The tofu is obviously fresh, soft but holding its form, not brittle or mushy. The seaweed is, again, top-notch nori. And it isn't over-salted, either. If this amazing soup isn't made in-house, I'll eat my hat.

ROCKED this first impression. A definite stop on my list anytime I'm back in town. Flawless.

Way to knock my socks off!”

“I grew up with Johnny's Lunch being a staple in our family. Every time we come back to NY, we have to get a box! At one point, years after I moved to SC,my husband called them to order jars of the sauce. They never charged him and said Happy Birthday. Truly the best! I'm ordering sauce again soon.”

“Loved it! Amazing burger and fries. Amazing fried chicken. Good potato salad. Good peaches with whipped topping. Decent prices. Small menu, but great food. Very funny friendly cook. Cool 50s theme with 50s and 60s music playing. Little store attached. Cash only with an atm outside.Only 2 complaints are I bought the $4.50ish cheddar and broccoli soup, but didn't realize I never got it until I was already 20+ minutes away in Jamestown. I tried to come back for breakfast another day and the hours are different than online. They don't open until lunch.”

“I had a wonderful experience there. Gretchen was super nice and her charitable nature is rare especially in today's times. The food was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed her company, conversation and the atmosphere. I will most definitely try to return when I'm in the area and highly recommend her restaurant.”

“I asked for a recommendation for a milkshake and one of the ladies pointed me in the right direction with a mix of Peach and Vanilla. It was delicious. Thanks so much.”
