New American Restaurants near West Seneca, NY

“I’ve always had a great experience - the entire staff is “to blame” for that! Always had friendly service- even if the person walking by is not our server - they always smile and make eye contact, food has always been delicious. I’ve been there a few times with people who’ve never been- and we’ve always left with them talking about what a great choice of restaurant. Keep it up!!“

“Always a friendly environment!!“

“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.“

“I don’t know where to start, one of the best all around dining experiences of my life. Started with the toasted marshmallow espresso martini which I had to try three of to confirm how delicious they were. Then me an my two friends order the octopus, lamb meatballs, and bone marrow. Rarely does every appetizer hit but these were all out of the park home runs. For the entree I got the roast chicken, and my friends got the two different duck entrees and a takeout container was not necessary. The vibe and service was just as good as the food, we also had the chance to talk with the owners father who gave us some background on the operation and overall just a very friendly environment with unbelievable food, and not very expensive for the value. I will be back again!“

“Best location! Top brunch place ever!“

“Fantastic food, the califlower with green goddess was amazing and we adored the gnocchi dinner and cod entree special with toasted olives! Helpful and attentive staff with cozy intimate vibes made this the perfect place to relax with upscale entrees made for royalty. We'll be back!“

“Always an amazing experience at Vice. Service is always on point, the food is fresh and the cocktails are some of the best in Buffalo.“

“Went here for the first time just to have a few drinks and dinner .. The bartenders were very welcoming. The moment we came in we sat at the bar. Natalie was the first bartender to greet us . They have lots of menu items to choose from a large cocktail list large beer and wine list and the service was amazing. The bartenders were very attentive to us and Natalie took care of us most of the time that we were there and her service was just absolutely amazing. They made really good dirty gin martinis for me and I also tried an espresso martini and it was delicious. We got the Mediterranean flatbread. It was so good and a steak sandwich and fries. Everything was cooked to our liking and the drinks and food were amazing along with the service and conversation Definitely a 10 out of 10 and I can’t believe this was my first time going here. I wish I would’ve found this place a lot sooner. It will now be one of my favorites. I can’t wait to come back and try more things. Definitely a 10 out of 10.“

“Went for dinner on Easter Sunday, Staff was great and atmosphere as always top shelf. My wife had filet it was perfect, I had rack of lamb, but it was not a rack but 2 rack bones with 3 inches of meat hanging off, I could not even cut the meat with a steak knife, had to send it back to be cut. beware when you order a rack $70“

“great food, great service and friendly atmosphere.“

“My husband and I have always enjoyed the great food and drinks at Jazzboline, and the waitstaff consistently provides excellent service. Recently, I had the pleasure of throwing a surprise birthday party for my husband there, and I can't say enough about how helpful Mike Overdorf was! He answered all my questions and made the party planning process seamless, from selecting the drink menu to choosing the meals, even including little boxes of chocolates as a special touch. During the party, the waitstaff, Michelle and Sara, were gracious, kind, patient, and attentive throughout the celebration.“

“Great food, bartenders were awesome. The beers were fresh and there were plenty to choose from. One thing it does need is another TV at the other side of the bar. This would help when there are any home games on, you can watch it from either side of the bar.“

“5/5. I cannot say enough about my recent experience hosting a get together for 12 people on Sept. 7th. We used the private room, great for an intimate gathering of our size. The food and drinks were perfect and the staff made it all the better. Thank you and we will see you soon.“

“I alway enjoy whatever cocktail I get from Ballyhoo, and my last visit there was no different. One of the best bars in town in my opinion with very reasonably priced drinks and excellent customer service. Not a very large bar space, but definitely worth checking out. They do serve a limited food menu as well, but I have not tried any yet.“

“I think it’s fine the way it is. I especially like that I can get a fish fry any day It’s very good to0. If there were one thing I would change is the parking situation. That’s it“

“Hands down amazing food. we stopped in after a long day of shopping and I am so glad we did. the service was great. the food was honest to God phenomenal. so good that we all shared bites to appreciate how yummy our food was. My dog was accepted at outdoor seating and I was even allowed to take her out in the field for some fetch after we ordered. Don't drive by... STOP in and grab a bite... you won't be disappointed!! Oh and GO BILLS!! ❤️🤍💙 🐃“

“Since I became extremely lactose intolerant, eating out is always a disappointment. Not here! I could trust everything on the menu. I took a vegetarian friend and one with no food restrictions and we loved everything we ordered. Super friendly staff, great service and the food was outstanding. Mac and cheese, yes please!“

“Students do an excellent job and will be fine additions to any establishment. Before going to the Sabres game, having lunch with the culinary students of ECC. Pear-gorganzola with crispy prosciutto, Osso Bucco veal shanks, limoncello Semifreddo and fresh bread with garlic butter and pesto. Sometimes I'm hesitant to tell you where the good stuff is, because you have to make reservations and I don't want it to get over crowed as it does sometimes 😆“

“the bands they have are amazing!!! very friendly staff and a great place to let loose.“

“Have been going here forever. It’s been a while and still top notch! Warm, charming atmosphere, consistent, fantastic service. Great place for a date, we had a great night , thank you!“

“My boyfriend & I came here for dinner while on an overnight in East Aurora. Outstanding food and service!

“We have been there at least four different times and each meal better than the last. Last week ate at the bar. The risotto extraordinary. Went tonight I had filet , delicious. Family members raved about the pork chops this will be our new fav place. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The atmosphere is beautiful and elegant. The drinks are just right. The salmon was great. The creme brulee was delightful..“

“This place was in my hotel, Millennium, and it was a great experience!!! The food was actually tremendous. I had a drink, a shrimp cocktail, a couple of wines and the chicken parm. Everything was great!! My server, Hallie McKinnie, was absolutely the best and nicest server I can ever remember!!! Food, ambiance, service were again, top notch!!! This was better than a lot of restaurants I have eaten at. the shrimp cocktail was the best also!!!! Very cool place. they could up their wine list but that's not a big thing here in Buffalo...... IT was very good!!“

“Cool buffalo relic of the past. Older crowd, cheap pricing and a small parking lot out back. Went in at 9pm on a Saturday and it was just two patrons and the bar was ready to close by 10. But they open at 8am. Super clean facility especially for how much history it has.“

“Went there before a play for dinner at Shea's Buffalo. This place is on the Chippewa bar strip, so we were not expecting much. Walking inside, it looks like a typical party/cocktail bar, brick walls, long bar, and tables opposite the bar with plastic chairs and Formica tables, so you are sitting in the bar. At 5:30PM on restaurant week before a nearby playing of Hamilton, we were the only diner's there (and only 4 others at the bar). Now the good part.... one of the best meals I have had in a long time!!!!! Waitress/bartender was prompt, attentive and friendly. The special for restaurant week that we had was $35 for soup/salad (I had soup), Duck with asparagus, yams, sprouts and and pie for dessert. This meal was fabulous! Perfect portion and perfect flavor. The caramel/peanut butter pie was luscious! On top of all this, we were there during happy hour, so $3 a beer. I highly recommend trying this place to eat, just don't expect a cozy, intimate atmosphere. You won't be disappoints, and you won't be broke.“

“Nice atmosphere, great food and service!“

“We made reservations and were seated immediately. Our Server was Lauren and very friendly. Our food was delicious and came pretty quickly. Everything was perfect and prices are decent. Definitely recommend dining here, we will be back!!“

“Went to Betty’s today for a little brunch/lunch today! We had Brian as our server, he was super attentive, gave great recommendations, and kept our waters refilled (huge plus). The portions were perfect if not bigger than we could eat. We enjoyed the patio and being able to eat outside. Definitely will be back!“

“My husband and I went here on Thanksgiving Day 2025, OMG, When I tell you, Everything was Perfect, THE Greeting at the Door, They took our Coats, Seated us, The Waitress was Amazing, Food Was Fantastic, Scenery was Beautiful, I highly recommend this Place, Thank you 😊“
