These places hold a very special place in my heart. They are the places I miss when I am away, and they welcome me with open arms when I come home. These places to me, make Buffalo, Buffalo.

Yelping about Duffs when I was basically born and raised in the restaurant as much as I was in the town it sits in, is like bragging that you have the cutest baby in the world - its yours, of course you think its wonderful. But I've been around a bit…More »

Growing up, Bocce's was the go-to place for pizza. Now that I'm older and have tried lots of other pizzas, I'm happy to say that I still consider Bocce's to be one of the best.

I can't quite explain what's different about it, but perhaps it's the…More »

When I lived away from my hometown of Buffalo, Ted's was a must on every visit. Footlong with everything on it, a side of onion rings (the best!) and a loganberry.

I'm kinda feelin' some Ted's tonight...

p.s. I wouldn't recommend their Grilled Chicken…More »

Best Antipasto in Buffalo. Best I've ever had anywhere, actually. After you've finished your helping, take the delicious bread and wipe up the rest of the dressing.

Pizza is pretty bomb too - has that sweet red sauce and the pepperonis are crispy.

Summertime must-have after a bike ride along the Niagara River: sweet potato fries soaked in honey and butter and a soft vanilla custard cone with rainbow sprinkles.

Unfortunately I've been a little disappointed with the Family Tree lately. I've been there a handful of times since my last review and the food seems to have taken a turn somewhere. Lately I've been getting my toast insanely soaked in butter and my…More »

There are a lot of great Beef on Weck's to be had in Buffalo, but what makes Bar Bill Tavern #1 in my book is the freshness (carved to order) and the size of the sandwich (huge!). Definitely no skimping on the beef here.

I don't know if I was already…More »

I always forget about the Buffalo Tap Room and they don't deserve it!

Tucked away next to a plaza on the corner of Sheridan and Eggert is this casual, family friendly restaurant and bar with 21 beers on tap. You can find all of the Buffalo stapes…More »

YES YES YES. I really feel in my element here. Cool music, funky decor, random coffee mugs (am I a dork or is it really fun to see which you'll get?), delicious french toast and unique lunch options.

Cash only y'all.

Best donuts I've ever had. Best donuts in the WORLD? Probably. Hopefully I'll never be able to prove that.

Their menu is a mix of classic and unique, but nothing too freaky like sour gummy toppings to make it any less of a donut.

They have some…More »

I could sit in Parkside all day. The ornate moldings on the ceiling, the vintage floral wallpaper, the tiny wooden tables lined with doilies, the coca cola water glasses and the smell of fresh chocolate. My Dad used to take my sisters and I here when…More »
