“Excellent restaurant”
Date of review: Dec 14, 2010
Great penne with grilled beef and vegetables, and asiago cheese. This dish had so many ingredients, I wasn't sure it would work, but it was a knockout. The thin, juicy beef slices were grilled medium rare which is perfect. The other veggies, including wild mushrooms, peppers, red onions were all cooked perfectly. Very honest dish, and a huge portion, the leftovers of which were taken home for lunch.


The complementary bread and spicy sauce were too good, I filled up on these and couldn't finish my main. The Caesar was delicious and fresh, complete with huge whole anchovies.


The draft beer and wine selections were very good.


The very friendly and professional service, cozy ambience in a gorgeous neighbourhood, and overall terrific value of the restaurant rounded out the whole excellent dining experience. Will definitely go back when visiting Buffalo again.


Would you recommend this restaurant to a friend? Yes
Was this review helpful? Yes
