"Always an enjoyable experiance. I have dined at this restaurant for dinner a few times over the last few months and on each occasion have been more than pleased with the overall experiance. I found the menu to be creative and enticing with its offerings and the service to be friendly and efficient. Each plate ordered has always been artistically presented with an obvious attention paid to fine detail. Dinner starts with a complimentary basket of three types of bread, a fresh herb infused olive oil and a delicious olive tapenade. To give an example of the quality of food offered at this restaurant, I'd like to point out that on each of my visits, I have started my meal with the perfect bowl of soup; fennel and white bean with a contrasting cold accompaniement of chopped tomatoes seasoned with fresh herbs. The bowl arrives with the tomates in the center, and the server will pour the hot soup around the tomatoes. Another example is the cured salmon appetizer, which has been enjoyed on at least two occasions; the salmon is perfectly seasoned and fresh and is served with lemony baby greens, an herbed soft cheese and crisp bagel chips. Both of these options are absolutely delicious and have always been enjoyed by not only me, but by everyone in my dinner party as well. The uniqueness of the menu options and the high regard paid to food preparation and presentation also carries through all of the other menu items. I have never been disappointed with my menu selections. As we are in Buffalo after all, I recently enjoyed a great fish fry at the restaurant (although I am not sure if the fish fry is an every day offering or was a Lenten special but it is worth a call to the restaurant to find out). The server reported that the fish was cod and I found it to be very flavorful and fresh with a perfectly fried beer batter. I would return for the fish fry and a pint of one of their many draft beers any day. Lastly I also want to be sure to mention that for the quality of the food offered, I believe that the prices are more than reasonable and affordable. I am aware that the bar also has some fantastic happy hour specials on both food and drink, and I hope to return soon to take advantage of the specials."
