Italian Restaurants

Welcome to Buffalo where you can find some of the BEST Italian food on the east coast. There are many options both in walking distance and a short drive but here are some of our favorites.
Consistently great Italian food with reasonable prices plus an extensive wine list including a large selection of affordable bottles. A fun vibe weather it's a couple of you sitting at the bar or a family dinner. For groups definitely make a reservation!

A bustling restaurant with the eats to prove why. The fresh baked focaccia bread starts your meal off just right. Pop a squat at the bar or make a reservation for a group, either way you can't go wrong.

Worth the 5 minute drive! Large portions (seriously you might want to split an entree), delicious food, family friendly, and leftovers for days.

A Buffalo classic. Family friendly. The spaghetti parm might be where the song "on top of spaghetti, all covered with cheese" came from!

Burgers, Wings, Pizza and MORE

Buffalo is known for it's Chicken Wings (yes we call them Chicken Wings here NOT Buffalo wings) but we've also got some of the best pizza, burgers, and HOT DOGS around! Here are our top pics in this category.
If you want a burger you want the Bing! The best local spot to grab a burger, a "sangwich", (go for the mac salad on the side) and of course pizza (the sesame crust is the BEST!). Huge TVs make this the ideal spot for watching your favorite sporting event or for a casual hangout.

Our FAVORITE for wings. Ask for them HOT and extra crispy and don't forget extra blue cheese with a side of fries. And if you aren't feeling the wings everything else on the menu is really good too.

How do you keep warm through seven months of winter? With booze of course! Whether you love a good microbrew or a classic cocktail we've got you covered.
You won't find a better or more interesting beer list, let alone atmosphere, in all of Buffalo. Located in the heart of the theatre district Matinee caters to the evening and theatre crowd. Kevin and Rex hand pick every beer that meets your lips and a giant screen with black and white movies plays continously. If you're lucky Rex might even rap for you!
