The way the owners treated that senior citizen after she had an accident into the side of the building was embarrassing. They will never see a penny from me. https://buffalonews.com/news/local/friends-of-injured-driver-have-beef-with-schwabl-s-sign/article_a5c316c8-4bf8-5ecc-8547-428353d06fcd.html Would be interesting to read but I'm not paying for a subscription lol.

Brennan Huff Posted August 6, 2020 Author Share Posted August 6, 2020 I went to Schwabl’s a couple years ago before a Sabres game and it was great. Very good German potato salad. I’m looking at a place called Black and Blue Steak and Crab in Amherst. Anybody been there? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I was there, I put the menu so close to the table candle for reading light, I was shocked I didn’t set it on fire. Hutch’s is very good but you can usually get a reservation at Remington Tavern (same owner). Hutch’s is small, Remington Tavern is large. You may also like Tempo. The Dapper Goose is eclectic, menu at the link. The Yelling Goat has a wonderful, diverse menu in a bar! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Buffalo Chophouse or Russells....but it will co$t you. Chefs/La Bella Sicilia be next. I haven't been to any of them since March. Schwabl's is so not what it use to be. Go to Barbill's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BullBuchanan Posted August 9, 2020 Share Posted August 9, 2020 (edited) Kuni's - The best sushi I've had anywhere in the country Cantina Loco - Mexican (New-American flair) with the best from scratch margaritas. The spicy one is the best I've had Desi's (On Clinton) - Get the Godfather sub or the bonanza and die happy. They also have my all-time favorite calzones Dollar Pho - Top tier vietnamese - the bahn mi and pho are excellent Nick's Place - The best greasy spoon breakfast you'll ever find.

Honestly, not a fan of Chef's, and while I do like the "new" Colter Bay, I liked the "old" Colter Bay much better.

The portion was so big it hung 2-3" off of either side of the plate, the size of a forearm. Sides are good too. Good slaw with the fish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill from NYC Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 (edited) https://www.aromamainst.com/ Trattoria Aroma on Main Street in Williamsville is the bomb!!! Six of us went there last month and all of us were beyond pleased. If this place was in NYC they could charge a ton of money. This has turned into a yearly trip with old friends and I guarantee I will be back to eat there next year. It was just great, and I am a very tough food critic. This was what I had.....
