“Culinary Perfection in Buffalo Buffalo is truly privileged to have a dining establishment as exceptional as Lombardo’s. Much like the gridiron perfection we are witnessing from the Buffalo Bills, led by Josh Allen, Lombardo’s delivers a once-in-a-lifetime experience in the realm of fine dining. Everything about this restaurant exudes excellence—from the impeccably crafted dishes to the warm and inviting atmosphere, from the attentive service to the dedication of its ownership. Watching Tom Lombardo and his son Tommy work together this holiday season is a heartwarming sight that reflects the family values and passion behind this establishment. Simply put, Lombardo’s is a place you shouldn’t miss. It’s more than a meal—it’s an experience that defines culinary perfection.“

“Visiting Mister Sizzle's with my boys is always a highlight for us; it's our special treat. From the moment we step into this vibrant burger joint on Buffalo's West Side, the atmosphere fills us with anticipation. What truly sets our experiences apart, aside from the inviting vibe and the staff's warm hospitality, are the flavors that await us. Mister Sizzle's is renowned for its diverse burger lineup and signature milkshake cocktails, offering something for everyone, including a delightful vegan option for those seeking alternatives.

However, the star of our visits has always been the milkshakes, particularly the cookies and cream flavor. It's the boys' go-to choice and never fails to impress. The rich, creamy texture combined with the perfect blend of cookies and cream is unmatched; it's the best milkshake we've found in Western New York, hands down.

The news that Mister Sizzle's is expanding to Hamburg, taking over a spot that holds memories of a past burger joint near Spot Coffee, excites us immensely. Their epic burgers are without comparison, and having them closer to home means more joyful outings with my boys. The anticipation for the Hamburg location's opening, where we'll get to enjoy our favorite burgers and milkshakes more frequently, adds a special touch to our future family outings. Mister Sizzle's, with its commitment to the community, environment, and quality, truly stands out not just as a burger place but as a beacon of good times and great food in Buffalo.“

“First time here tonight and OmG was so good. The service was great and amazing food. We will definitely be back next time we are in new York!“

“Went for a Sunday brunch and got the Huevos Rancheros and was pleasantly surprised by how good and delicious it was. I also had the Gypsy Juice as my beverage, along with some Pastelitos (beef) shared for the table. Those were just OK to me and I've had better elsewhere. My party and I sat outside for a nice day out on the patio and some people watching, and despite being the only ones out there while we were dining, we still had great service from our server.“

“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.“

Their burgers are incredibly flavorful, with a variety of options to suit every taste—from juicy classic beef patties to unique specialty options.

Whether you like them spicy, sweet, or somewhere in between, BurgerIM has something for every wing lover.

“This place was great! I’m an NA beer drinking and my husband prefers tea & vodka. We came to this bar not knowing what to expect. We sat at the bar and we were greeted by both bartenders. I ordered an NA Italian beer and my husband asked them to make him something like a White Russian. The first bartender (we didn’t get his name) said he could make something even better, so he did. My husband really enjoyed it. It took some time for us to finish our 1st drinks because we were watching Aaron making the most beautiful drinks ever. There was so much passion into the drinks he was putting out. So we asked him if he could make us each a drink. I explained to him that I don’t drink alcohol, and he asked me a lot of questions, to see what types of drinks I like and flavors. He also asked if I had any dietary restrictions, which I answered, no. He then asked my husband the same types of questions. and then, he went to work. He was like a drink wizard! He served us two stunning looking drinks and words cannot even describe the way these drinks tasted! I don’t remember what was in my non-alcoholic cocktail, but I do know it had lemon and lime juice, and part of an egg white. It was phenomenal! Another great thing about him was that he told us the history of some of the liquors he was using in my husband’s drinks and the different flavors. He was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and a fantastic bartender! I work right around the corner, so my husband and I are looking forward to going back to see what Aaron can create for us next!
The atmosphere was very nice, the restaurant/bar is very clean and has such a great vibe.“

“I relocated to Buffalo about a year ago and this place has become one of my favorite for sure. Portions are great, flavor is really good and prices are decent plus service is always great as well. Definitely worth going and also taking food to go or frozen meal (taste just the same as the real thing served on the spot).“

“We had an exceptional experience! Have not been here in years and I cannot stop telling everyone to get to Oliver's!! Joe our waiter was amazing! Food and customer experience outstanding!! Ty Oliver's we will be back!!“

“The food was The bomb, the drinks was the bomb, the waitress was the bomb !!“

“I’m surprised that I have not given this place a review until now. Tipico has to be one of my favorite places to visit in Buffalo. The drinks are of excellent quality. The barista’s are knowledgeable and very friendly. They are masters of their craft. I’ve been to cafes across NYS and even NYC, none can even compare to Tipico. I cannot recommend Tipico enough for anyone who lives in buffalo.“

“Popped in for their one year anniversary where they were offering up dollar slices and I got the New York style and it was solid. Definitely looking forward to visiting again to check out some of their cocktails. I really like their business model and that they are a tip-less establishment because of their practices in paying their employees which is cool.“

“Their curries and appetizer is good. Biryani is not that great.
Don't miss to have Indian Chai, if you are tea lovers. It's simply superb.
Service was good and they are very friendly.
Nice restaurant in buffalo for Indians to visit.“

“Fantastic lunch. What a nice surprise. Can’t wait to go back!“

“The Fastnacht kuekle are world class.“

“We had breakfast/lunch today at Sophia’s. What a great place.!! It was our first time there so we were not familiar with their wait system at the bar and jumped the line, lol. We ate at the bar because they were so busy, the bartender, a young woman was super efficient and super nice. The service was excellent. The food was so good, we will be going back. I’m sure.“

“Love the people almost as much as the food. Great comfortable atmosphere and just an overall great experience every time I eat here.“

“We just has our son and daughter in law's wedding here last Friday. Between the venue, food and staff I could not be happier with the way things turned out. They staff was wonderful and the food was great. Everyone has an amazing time. Highly recommended.“

“Oralia is my favorite restaurant here. The chicken and rice bowl is phenomenal and I also like the chicken quesadillas. Food is ready quick which really helps when I’m on my lunch break. I also enjoy the smoothies from Pattaya. I did not like their bubble tea, though.“

“Great spot with a great selection! Luv the breakfast options and the coffee too!“

“Service was excellent (thank you David) Food and excellent, the bartenders were excellent. 10 out of 10“

“Greg was our server. That was the name at the top of the bill. I forgot to confirm. Greg was the reason this earned 5 stars. We had a table of 15. Greg preplanned the bills and really worked to make sure we were taken care of. It’s been awhile since I’ve seen that level of customer service. We had some amazing food and some average food. Drinks were delicious. Extremely cool atmosphere.“

“Food and portion size were excellent with friendly service and cozy atmosphere ! Definitely a must try!“

“I would love to give a very positive review but as of right now I cannot every time I go to the hertel location there always out of milk . the regular ice cream is great but I only do milkshakes cause I drive alot please fix y'all's problem of running out of milk.“

“The only restaurant in Buffalo with a tasting menu worth that name. Since we discovered it just after the pandemic, we have been there close to a dozen times. It never disappointed!“

“Wednesday is 1/2 off Vegetarian Pho!!! SOOO YUMMM!!! 😋🍜🙌🏼“

“Very cute Cafe, delightful staff, and some REALLY delicious treats. My wife and I tried the salted caramel and the biscotti gelato flavors, and they were superb! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“My family and I went there for a birthday
Celebration.. The food was delicious!!
The butter chicken was the best I've ever had. 👍 The owners were very thoughtful when they found out that we were celebrating a birthday they gave us each rice pudding at the end of our meal.
For four of us to eat with two appetizers the bill was less than $100.

Vegetarian options: Someone in our party had lentils over rice. So good!!“

“I wish I had a second stomach so I could eat more here! No lie. I've had takeout from here but today was our first time dining in. Husband had the souvlaki salad - enormous portion that could have fed our family of four, with perfectly cooked chicken, and I had the moussaka, which was well balanced, moist but not overly oily, very tasty.
We split the tyrokafteri (sp?) as an appetizer, which was a deadly delicious pile of feta cheese based dip with peppers and pita to scoop it with. We devoured it. I also had the lemon chicken soup with my meal.
The pita was good - soft, fresh, and flavorful - the soup was the only thing that was less than 5 stars imo (I didn't detect any actual chicken, and would have appreciated a little more to chew, but it was still good. I've never had better Greek potatoes either.
Sadly I couldn't even fathom eating dessert after all that but they looked tempting! I brought more than half my meal home and am actually looking forward to work tomorrow (Monday) so I can eat it. Will most definitely be back, and I intend to show up HUNGRY next time.
My only recommendations to the restaurant is a couple minor things. My soup came in a plain diner style soup cup which I think made it seem boring. Just a small upgrade to a prettier soup bowl might help. Also, cloth napkins are always nice.
Props to them for the biodegradable takeout containers by the way!

Edit: back again for a second meal today. Hot roast beef, salmon, and we brought the kids who got a reuben and a hot dog. All good! Service was perfect also.

Vegetarian options: Spanakopita, hummus platters etc. I didn't notice if there were vegetarian labels but definitely there were some options, at least if you're okay with cheese.

Kid-friendliness: It's pretty casual with booths and tavles. We saw several kids there, and will be taking ours next time.“

“Osteria 166!! Absolutely the best food in Buffalo and our favorite hands down Italian restaurant with the best meatballs I ever had besides my grandma's, that I haven't had since she passed, so these are now the best I can get. The menu is great with something for everyone and whatever you're in the mood for from flatbread pizza to homemade pasta with the most amazing sauces, delicious salads, fantastic steak and the freshest Italian desserts. if you can save room. We have to get them to go home. It's so hard to decide that we get several things and go family style sharing and going around the menu. bravo Nani in the meatballs! they are a must! great friendly service and beautiful atmosphere. sometimes the acoustic music in the bar. what a gem we love walking distance to the theater district, we try to go before shows and park and enjoy the evening starting with the best meal and drinks before a show downtown. Don't think twice about trying this place! make reservations.“

“What a great atmosphere! The food & drinks were absolutely amazing 🤩 Thank you!“
