“10/10 best banh mi in buffalo.”

“Food is amazing and our servicer was knowledgeable on wines!”

“The food was outstanding! Service amazing! Beautifully remodeled, my husband and I will definitely be back ????”

“Excellent food! Honestly, some of the best Chinese food I've ever had. Fresh, crisp veggies, not overcooked and soggy. I go at least once a week. Highly recommended!”

“When I visit Buffalo, I always have to stop in for Duffs wings. I was there today 2-27-2024 with friends from high-school”

“I ordered the shrimp appetizer which is usually great good way overcooked last time ...shame should look fresh and lt brown. Mine was black..
Ps. I'm from Cape Cod I know shrimp”

“We love the Ted's on Transit Road. We went there today and had a wonderful experience. Too cold to eat outdoors but we usually do with fur baby. The food and service was great.”

“Looking for an easy peasy but delicious place for dinner? Head on over to Tito’s. Weather was nice and I didn’t feel like cooking dinner so we headed on over off the recommendation of a friend. This place did not disappoint! I got the Texas Tito and my boyfriend got the Nashville chicken. Both were full of flavor and juicy! We also split an order of cajun fries, don’t miss out on this either. The cook (I’m assuming the owner) was also very kind and polite. We will definitely be back!”

“I wanted to go someplace different for my "Belated" Birthday Dinner and I was in the mood for Italian. I needed Pasta . So, I looked on YELP & decided on "Carrabba's". I am so glad I did !!! My son & I got there around 6pm and had about a 10-15 minute wait. There was a bar to the right & most of the dining was to the left. It was clean & had a comfortable feel inside. We were seated & I had already planned what I wanted to eat the night before, so I wouldn't take forever deciding once I got there. But first, we were served delicious, soft, warm Italian bread . It was so good. We ended up getting it 3x I believe. Our waitress's name was Ashlie S. She was great !!! Very nice, friendly, helpful, funny & very easy to talk to. I order the LINGUINE POSITANO WITH CHICKEN, I got the MAMA MANDOLA'S SICILIAN CHICKEN SOUP & the CANNOLI CAKE FOR 2 for dessert. Everything was phenomenal !! The pasta was so light but with a burst of amazing flavors ! The soup was so good & with huge pieces of chicken in it. Yummmmmmy !! The Cannoli Cake was very good & because my birthday was yesterday, Ashlie gave me a few scoops of vanilla ice cream with syrup & a little birthday candle in it. She was so sweet. Everything was just perfect ! I had an amazing experience here tonight . I found the prices to be reasonable , at least for what I got. We had quite a Long waiting time to get our food, but it was soooo worth it ! They have a special deal going on. I don't know if it's temporary or always going on, but it is a great deal. Whatever the price of something you order for in the restaurant, you take home ANYTHING for less for $10.00. No matter what the regular price. I took home another Linguine Positano,but without the chicken. So now I have an amazing lunch & dinner for tomorrow, since I didn't even finish my pasta there. We also received extra fresh bread to take home. 100% satisfaction on the trip. Also, the ladies room was very clean & smelled good. (That never happens ) I will most definitely be returning to this Carrabba's & I hope I get the wonderful Ashlie S. as my server again. She was full of life, unlike a couple others I saw that looked like they were ready for bed. lol”

“Every aspect of the meal was incredible. Food was amazing, before we sat down the had a delicious hot tea on the table and the service was great. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.”

“Ordered take out from her while visiting Niagara . It was very close to our Airbnb.

Viagarro Pizza-5/5 ( nice veg fresh, dough was fresh and so was the cheese) would have loved more veggies on them.

Carissa Pizza- 4/5.Chicken Pizza dough was also very fresh and the cheese was really good. Chicken protein was good. Would had loved more veggies.

Definitely worth visiting.”

“Best pizza in Buffalo as far as what I have tried. Fresh bread sauce not too salty and love the cheese and cup and char pepperonis.

Kid-friendliness: Always saying thank you.”

“A place for cookie lovers that the decoration of the cookies are special. The new confetti cake looks yummy. They only offer takeaways and no seating for dine in or during waiting.”

“Walking into this bakery and seeing that I could eat ANYTHING that I wanted -- that I didn't have to be scared that I'd get sick, that I didn't have to limit myself to just one or two items that might not even be what I wanted -- y'all, I almost started crying. Just the relief of it, and knowing that someone cared enough to turn their entire bakery gluten-free. That means so much more than you can imagine. And the food was so good that we went here three times during our week-long stay in the area. In fact, we plan to order from them and have it shipped to us now that we're back home. Highly recommended!”

“Best food ever! I keep coming back”

“I love the service it's quick and easy to order and the subs are amazing I tried the turkey this time The subs are pretty big especially if you get everything on it but I'm a picky person so I only got turkey cheese tomato mayo oil”

“Second time here! Great service, the place is super clean and organized, the food is fresh! Tim is super friendly and great costumer service! Thank you Tim we will definitely come back again!”

“We have been in Buffalo 10 days. This is by far the best food we had so far. We will be back.”

“Hot night and Andersons on the Blvd is busy! Arctic swirl was great, filled to the brim and the small vanilla dish was just fine. We will be back. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Place was clean. It was a little slow but honestly, they were packed with people.”

“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.”

“First timer here. Wife surprised me for my birthday with a nice little selection. These are absolutely delicious. Carrot cake is very good. Lemon is good too. Churro is fantastic blueberry lemon was great too.”

“tried it for the first time today. I have to say I wish I would have tried it earlier. great food that's filling and great staff. we will be visiting again.”

“Outstanding chicken souvlaki dinner. The rice pilaf was the best I ever had . Great environment and great place to go with a young family. Great owners and great staff. Sheridan Family Restaurant for dinner hit the spot.”

“Always friendly staff when we have ordered and they always get our order correct. Miles better then the new jersey mikes location in Cheektowaga. You can definitely tell the difference in ownership and employees between the two. Just sad that we can no longer order delivery from this location.”

“It is one of my favorite these days.
Pro:
1. It is very cheap, I mean averagely you only spend $20 or even less for one dish. And good portion.
2. It is a classic Chinese flavor, not too spicy, not overly sweet. Just good.
Cons:
1. It is quite small. You may need to wait long if you come at rush hour.
2. Not many choices, I order like 15 dishes one time and that's basically everything they have

Cheap, good taste, and really warm service. I have to say I don't usually pay extra tips. But this is an exception. I hope they have good business.”

“The price was a shock the first time I went as we order a large order and split it but the food is so good it's worth every penny. We spend about $50 each time we go for two people.”

“I would go back!! Went here to try their malatang hotpot where you build your own bowl and they cook it for you. I been wanting to try a place like this but didn’t know we had one in buffalo!

Super clean place. I with there was a bigger selection but it’s okay. It was pay by pound and really affordable, I packed leftovers.

I got the spicy dry pot for my hotpot, and it was actually spicy. Not unenjoyable, but definitely comparable to buldak. Which I liked. My friend got the spicy Szechuan broth and that tasted like a typical malatang soup, not too oily either!

Tbh their robot is a cool concept but unnecessary bc the waitress just follows slowly behind to grab it anyways.

Overall nice!”

“Blue Bull is a great casual bar with great food & great atmosphere”

“Food was good as always; waiter was overwhelmed and we didn’t receive the great service we usually receive.”

“The absolute BEST pizza we have ever had. Ordering and waiting did kinda feel like waiting in a gymnasium full of high school kids. They were busy yes, but there was a lot of just leaning and chatting too. The flavor and quality of the pizza made up for it.

Dietary restrictions: Best gluten free crust ever! However, on our salad , they weren't familiar with the ingredients of the dressing.”

“Endless fries soda refills All around great place”

“Had an issue with one of my orders, brought the receipt in and the manager there I believe his name was will, took care of it promptly, good service and decent pizzas”

“There is free parking at the door, which is very convenient
The service is also very friendly❤️
The portions of the meals are large and the food is very satisfying.
The taste is also very delicious?
I highly recommend everyone to come and eat it, it tastes super authentic ?

I highly recommend the pho, the wok gas is really fragrant~”

“Great service tonight, we had a party of 13ppl. Waitress was patient and kind. Food as always was great. The Waitress knew I wasn't fond of raisins so I got my rice pudding raisin free.”

“I took my family for dinner today and our experience was fantastic! Our food was great, our service was perfect and we had a surprise from a family member returning home from serving overseas who joined us. Our waitress came over and told our table that they would like to give us free dessert. It was very nice of the restaurant to recognize my family members service and include us all! It was a great experience and memory!”

“I didn't catch his name but he has taken our order before. He is always super friendly!! Our drinks are always delicious! We go out of our way to visit this location because of him.”

“Came here after having a meal next door at Anchi. There was a good amount of people walking in and out of the cafe, so I thought I might as well take a visit. Upon walking in, there's a list of drink options they have the base of milk tea or fruit tea - whether you want a regular tea or smoothie form as well. They also had a few new additions and employee recommendations.Lots of seating and a very chill spot to go with friends. The cafe also had some board games too. They were pretty quick with their service. I certainly see why it's a busy spot for locals here!”

“I love this special family also... great picture”

“The food is good. I love the mozzarella sticks and the 1/2 pound roastbeef

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu

Wheelchair accessibility: Big place plenty of room to maneuver around”

“I would drive a hundred miles for her.”

“THANK YOU so much for your generous donation to Our Lady of Peace church’s Wines Around the World Event. We greatly appreciate your donation. With out your support we could not help the Breast Cancer Network, Sleep in Heavenly Peace and St. Lukes. Support Local Businesses!”

“Heck ya baebi this place be poppin and lockin, I dig it yo”

“amazing food. great atmosphere and fantastic wait staff. I had the Western Cheddar omelet and it came with 3 full sized pancakes. delicious!”

“First time would definitely recommend the food was awesome 🤩”

“To experience with my food 18$ I not believe it”

“Another great time at Little Lamb!
Been going here for years. The buffet is a new addition, and it's really streamlined everything. Staff hasn't change they are very friendly and always remember the regulars !

I am a big fan of the spicy broth, but my friends have tried the other broths and they're all good.

Really though, what you can't beat is the atmosphere. The music videos on the big screen in the back and you can book a karaoke room. Overall amazing! Thank you little lamb 🥰”

“Jim's is a reliable staple for anyone who grew up in this area. Their subs are always fresh and well-prepared, but don't overlook the wraps, burgers, and other menu items because they're made just as well. The stinger sub and Jim's hot blue are by far my favorite go-to sandwiches. Their service is always amazing as well. Whenever I order through Toast, I can expect my order in 15 mins or less.”

“The BEST Chinese food I’ve ever had! If you are even considering ordering Chinese food, order from Golden Wok. The rice is authentic and flavorful. The orange chicken and General Tso’s chicken are saucy with the perfect amount of spice, flavor, and veggies. The crab rangoons are crispy perfection and the egg rolls are crunchy and delicious. The portion size is enough to have leftovers and the food is so good that I don't ever want to order from any other Chinese food restaurant. Find your favorite dish and give it a try because you will not be disappointed.”

“I was in the area for meetings today and a co worker suggested this place I must say the staff was extremely helpful and friendly As I couldn't pronounce half of the things on the menu. They explained what everything was, and I must say, I got a chicken, something on a pita, and I'll tell you what it was the best meal I've had in a very long time, absolutely awesome flavor extremely reasonable prices. A must-visit if you're in the Buffalo. Area.”

“I was staying in Amherst for a conference and had a nice experience at the Blue Fire Grill in the Marriott. Everyone was very friendly and the food was okay.

Parking: Huge hotel parking lot”

“Great service huge servings and food is great. Got the Tokyo chicken bento box with the chicken dumplings which were amazing with the sauce on the side. For only 13 bucks definitely worth the price.”

“We had a fabulous time today! The drinks & food were superb! We will be back! Thank you”

“My only concern is the fact that the employees take up all of the parking spots. They should park in the rear of the building where they have a door that is not accessible to the patrons.”

“I grew up in Western New York and absolutely love Mighty Taco. There's nothing better than a Super Mighty Burrito. My fiancé was skeptical at first, but I took her here and she inhaled it. If you're from Buffalo, you know Mighty Taco. If not, give it a shot. You won't be disappointed.”

“Had lunch here, craving some dim sum. While they don't do much dim sum any more, we had a couple of things, both clearly made from scratch and they were amazing! Their Hong Kong dumplings were amazing!”

“went here for the first time and satisfied my craving for a burger and fries! can't find fresh cut fries at very many places... would go again when I get another craving...very tasty 😋”

“Bad bad experience. I was served and finished my dinner before my wife got any of what she ordered. Flagged down several people with restaurant uniform on and was totally ignored. Asked for the bill and waited ten minutes before I had to flag down a person to pay. We’ll never go back, ever!!”

“Thank you Soooo much!! December 27, 2022 at 2:00 Very few restaurants open. Gail was great!!! Friendly, professional and efficient! Great to find you open. Our first time out after the driving ban and she was perfect! Glad to find you open and serving. Food was delicious and coffee was needed. I would hope management knows what a person like Gail is worth . Priceless to us :-) Lynn & Rick Lent Kenmore, NY 14217”

“Some of the best pizza and wings in Buffalo! Brought a friend here from out of town and at first they didn’t know what to expect with counter service and outdoor seating, but I said “just wait.” And they were blown away!”

“Great atmosphere and staff. Been coming to this location for 5 yrs. and will continue coming. Thank you!!!”
