Their claims linguine was awesome! And the waitress was very nice and welcoming!
Dine in:Quick and kind service. Decent selection of drinks and specialty cocktails. Food came out quick and was good.Take out:Only 25 min wait during dinner rush.Caesar salad was good, gnocchi was pretty expensive for the portion size, still very good.
This place was good. It wasn't crowed when we went. The place is SQUEAKY clean and had AMAZING STAFF. The food was good, the bread was AMAZING. I recommend checking out this place, it's good and taste great!
0/2 for restaurants in Buffalo. Arrived at 5:20ish pm. Was immediately sat and given menus. Took waiter five minutes to greet table. Ordered drinks and their steamed clams for an app (for 12 they charged $16…). Drinks came and were small (picture attached) and when I finished the soda, the waiter advised there weren’t free refills. This must be a Buffalo thing because Gabriel’s Gate has the same policy. Odd to think sales are bad enough the restaurant has chosen to collect on soda refills. Steamed clams came out 10 mins later and were average, some of them tasted bad and were off. I asked if they had bread and the waiter said they had some kind of house bread. They brought out the bread 10-15 minutes later. Bread was good, but dipping sauces were not. One tasted like a roasted red pepper hummus dip that I wasn’t a fan of and the oil looking dip was so terrible it almost made me sick. Then they brought out the entrees. I ordered their veal francaise special ($25). They first put the side bowl of spaghetti on the table that was not very tasty, then they put down the veal. The veal was decent, but very thin – schnitzel thin. Was definitely not worth $25 even in pandemic prices. Tops I would say $18 maybe $20 if one is greedy. Server was fine, not rude or overly friendly. As the restaurant got busier, the service got much slower. We ended up waiting far too long for our meal to be cleared. I then asked about dessert and ordered the peach cobbler. Took 20 minutes to get the peach cobbler – big mistake. Peach cobbler was huge and bland, and by that point they had produced the check and they were charging me $8 for that cobbler, so I sent it back as I couldn’t even eat it. Waiter also overcharged me for clam appetizer putting them in at $18 instead of $16 which I then pointed out and he spent five minutes investigating. Here’s the best part! The one small soda with no free refills I got cost $3 and they charged me for the bread……. $5!!!! FIVE DOLLARS FOR BREAD??? I can go to the store and get much better bread than that!!! What a rip off!!! Most places don’t charge for bread and the server NEVER said anything about bread costing money. Once they fixed the bill, which again took forever, I just paid because we had to go to catch a concert as it was 7 pm at that point. So, my recommendations to the restaurant: the food is not of expensive quality, so lower your prices. Your lack of servers isn’t helped by the smallest glasses for water and soda I’ve seen in restaurants, so get bigger glasses so servers don’t have to tend to refills (in this case water for me, which the server had to refill A LOT because the glass is so small). Make sure you’re charging people what you priced on the menus. Free refills!!! And for gosh sakes, FREE BREAD!!! I think it’s rather desperate when a restaurant charges for bread and refills, especially fountain refills. Next time I’ll just go to a chain.
Came here because mother’s was on a wait. Didn’t disappoint at all. Best calamari I think I’ve ever had probably because of the salad underneath. Loved it, lightly fried and extremely tender and flavorful.Steak giaccobi was very good. steak was flavorful but unfortunately closer to well done rather than medium rare as ordered. The salad with that is extremely good too. Well seasoned to me and definitely different with the beans. Spaghetti was cooked fine but sauce was sort of underwhelming. Overall the dish was 3/5 but everything else made up for it.Nicole was our server. Very friendly. Recommended the strawberry lime mule to drink and that didn’t disappoint with the fresh strawberries. Very different from any mule I’ve had, but very good.Would definitely go again!
Had the best chicken parm hoagie ever! The waitress was amazing. Great atmosphere. Will definitely eat there again.
Chose this restaurant on a whim as we looked for parking on a cold, snowy day in Buffalo. Man oh man did we get lucky as this place had GREAT Italian food. On arrival, the host, a.k.a The owner, put 2 tables together to accommodate our party of 6. We sat and ordered garlic bread and they came with a roasted garlic and red pepper and olive butter. Really good. We also ordered a few drinks, The Sicilian Old Fashioned and a Chianti.Finally we ordered dinner (See pics) and everything was EXCEPTIONAL! My son had the Steak Giacobbi which was so darn flavorful that I was a little jealous I didn't order it. Overall great food, great service and cool atmosphere.This is a HIGHLY recommended restaurant when you are in Buffalo.

The food here is amazing. I had the lasagna and it was perfect. Then had the peanut butter pie, this could have used a bit more whipped cream and chocolate crust as it was very rich. I can’t wait to come back to town again and eat here.
Unexpectedly ran across this place because all the restaurant i initially tried to go to was booked or the wait was long. So we tried this place & hands down, delish…every plate was finished. Authentic Italian dish & a friendly staff.
