Just a really great place and very friendly staff. I just really wish around Buffalo the kitchens didn't close at 10. Please, please PLEASE store leftover food so those of us who come after 10 who are hungry don't have to do a Burger King run. Keep like some extra sandwiches, tortilla chips with salsa, those mini hot dogs with a pickle on a skewer handy for people to buy - appetizers that's it just keep sandwiches and appetizers handy for the late night crowd cos we're starving lol
We kind of found this bar by accident, and so glad we did! The martinis were excellent, priced appropriately, and the staff was great. Chelsea and Donny, specifically, made our visit memorable. The bar was packed, and yet they still took time to chat, get to know us, and make us feel welcomed. Can’t wait for the next visit.
Perfectly fine if you plan on closing in 5 minutes and the customers physically have to leave. Just make sure you mention that before they buy a round of drinks (and tipped well on top). We had no idea we'd be expected to chug them. I could understand if we had been sitting there nursing them but we had bought them less than 5 minutes before. The bouncer had a really weird attitude and told us to "hurry and drink up" and I was blown away. You could tell by the look on the bartender's face he knew I was right. He was the one with the tacky 50's sideburns.
The service and drinks here were great. The food wasn't as great. Also, the kitchen is front facing, so the place can get a little greasy smelling if they are cooking up a lot of fries.
We had reservations for 8:30 on a Wednesday. There were 2 groups at the bar (6 people total) when we arrived using lots of loud profanity, which was fine, but definitely not what we expected. We were thinking this would be an upscale, trendy place. Bartender told us to sit at the bar because he couldn't bring food to a table, which was fine. We asked for menus and then sat there waiting with no menus (10 minutes maybe) while he went back and forth with the drunk guy at the bar (the guy told us he had been on a bender for 8 days) debating if what he was charging him was acceptable. When we were finally given menus, the bartender told us to order quickly because "no food after 9.". We were not given drink menus (strange for a martini bar), or asked if we wanted a drink. Instead, the bartender went to chat with the loud girls (who seemed like they maybe worked there) at the other end of the bar. After 15 minutes total of sitting with no service we left. The girls at bar yelled, "bye!" on our way out. Really uncomfortable. Trashy place.
Drinks are fabulous. Matt the bartender is friendly and knows his stuff. A++++ for that. The cook on the other hand looked like he was on a 3day bender and was disheveled and looked miserable and unclean. If you’re going to have a “front of house” kitchen then maybe you should make sure your employee reflects the type of establishment that you’re trying to be. Also I realize every business has issues but your roach problem needs to be addressed. Would come back for drinks but not food.
Loved this place. The city girl drink was delicious. The bruchetta and gnocchi were amazing. Staff and chef were very accommodating. Definitely will be back.
Drinks were good. Food was alright. Burger had a funny smell (idk what that was about). Service was alright. Calamari was great. Would not go back though. Place seems safe though. Vaccination not required to be served.
Always a pleasure going here unfortunately Sandra don't work here anymore . They took the chippewa martini off the menu needs to be put back on. Kitchen closes at 9 not so great if your hungry but they have amazing food . Thank God for Matt still working there unfortunately all new faces
Great food! Great martinis!! And Matt aka Ben was a wonderful!! We 3 ladies had a perfect birthday celebration!!
