Rockee96 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Hi Everyone, I will be flying out to Buffalo from California for the KC game in November. This will be the first trip my wife and I will be taking after we got married earlier this year, so I want to make it a memorable experience (it would help a lot if they win the game). I was wondering if you can recommend some good places to eat and also visit during our 3-day stay? Can you share your thoughts on: Best place to eat pizza (New York style) Hot Dogs Wings (do you know a good local restaurant, instead of the big chains?) Nice places for a newly married couple to visit (besides Niagara Falls)? Thank you so much! Go Bills! I'll be at the tailgate (with several packs of beer and chips), so I look forward to meeting you! -Thomas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 You lost me at "pizza (new York style)". Now if you want Buffalo pizza, I happen to like Bozanna's in Clarence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't stop billievein Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 (edited) Bozanna's is actually out of business, it was good pizza though. Ted's for hot dogs For pizza i would say bocce's (on bailey ave) or try rocco's in williamsville, it's a really nice place. Zetti's pizza has good NY style. Wings I would have to go with Duffs or try a place off of elmwood called Gabriels gate(145 Allen St). GO BILLS!! Hope you enjoy your stay in the B-LO Edited September 3, 2013 by Don't stop billievein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillnutinHouston Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Bozanna's is actually out of business, it was good pizza though. Wow, that's disappointing. Now I'll need to find another place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don't stop billievein Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Wow, that's disappointing. Now I'll need to find another place. Out that way Mazia's is pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 I miss a pizza place... Pontillio's? We used to always go up to and stay with a friend in Spencerport. I've not been there in 10 years or so... yet, I remember how to get there and found it on Google Earth just by remembering the number of turns and roads to pass. It is way off 90, by a school and on Webster. God, I am going to be hardcore geeking on nostalgia all week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsForever Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Get a cheese pizza and cheese/pepporoni pizza from Bocce's and wings from Duff's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 For wings and pizza try Casa di Pizza on Elmwood Ave. Steak sandwiches, Jim's Steak out cor. Elmwood & Allen Wings are good at either Danny's or The Big tree Inn. Both are right next to Ralph Wilson Stadium, cor of Abbott & Big Tree. Definitely definitely Ted's for hot dogs. Several locations around town. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillnutinHouston Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 At least one stop at Mighty Taco is obligatory, also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffalothruMyVeins Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Good luck with your trip. I made a similar trip to WNY for training camp at the beginning of August, and hd a great time. I came on here and asked for advice too, so you can check it out to get good info. http://forums.twobil...e/#entry2845820 As far as wings, I went to Duff's (which has many locations) and The Buffalo Brew Pub in Depew. Duff's was very good, but I would say the Brew Pub was about 5% better, so if you're out in Depew's direction, stop in. It's not hard to find off of the throughway, if I remember correctly. Make sure you come back to thread after the game and let us know how the trip went! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Fong Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Make sure you eat a beef on weck while you're there. The locals can steer you better than I, but I really like Charlie the Butcher's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBrad Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I'm a Southowns guy: Pizza - Edie's in Hamburg, Bocce on Bailey is good too, both are Buffalo style as opposed to NY style Hot Dogs - Ted's Wings - Bar Bill in East Aurora, they also serve a mean Beef on Weck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Hot Dog Ted's Andersen's is a good place for a Beef on Weck, nothing fancy there I live in NC now myself so do miss good wings, they all suck down here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDD Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 (edited) Agree with Bocce Club Pizza on Bailey Ave. Best pizza IMO. This is not a restaurant, they only do take out fyi. Also, you've got to try some sponge candy when in Buffalo. There's a place called Wahl's and there sponge candy is awesome!

Jauronimo Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Isn't Pontillo's more Rochester than Buffalo? Yup. Started in Batavia, right in the middle of the Rochester and Buffalo, and moved East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpleman Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Yup. Started in Batavia, right in the middle of the Rochester and Buffalo, and moved East. Still in the same place in Bat-town, just another name because of family disfuctionality. Still great pizza@! At least one stop at Mighty Taco is obligatory, also. We grew up on Mighty and love it, but an outsider would say what the &*$! is this suppose to be? It is an acquired taste. Always better after a night of drinking on the way home.
