"Better made in the morning by Cafe Madison This was our first visit to Cafe Madison and we plan to go back... many times. There were immediate sittings at the bar so that we put ourselves on the head and started our meal with hot and frosty cappuccinos that burned right in front of our eyes. The restaurant was filled with energy as the staff to ensure that the patrons tend well. Our servers at the bar helped us make suggestions and talk when time was allowed. We ordered Huevos Rancheros from the special menu and the hash breakfast. The staff said the Rancheros used to be a cornerstone on the menu, but they only bring it back for specials in these days; she highly recommended it to say that they usually sell out quickly. The chorizo was a tad spicy but still delicious. The hash shell was just as good as the Rancheros. As if pinned beef hash itself is decadent, they add a cheese sauce that puts it over the top. The only missing was that I paired it with onion/dill bread; You should definitely get rye bread with beef. The eggs were perfectly cooked on each plate and the side potatoes were well seasoned. The restaurant is clean and offers a comfortable and entertaining atmosphere. It seems to be a lot of street parking and they offer outdoor seating when the weather is allowed. If you haven't been, go! Make sure to register for their reward program for takeover and delivery orders. UPDATE: 4/10/22 We have served the chicken and waffle... crispy chicken teeth served on a roasted corn and jalapeno waffle. If you like flavors of the southwest, you will love this waffle. The taste of Jalapeno comes through with the slightest touch of heat. Embroidered with maple butter and a sweet hot-hot syrup. It is definitely worth trying! We have sides of oversized eggs that perfectly cooked and crispy bacon. Unfortunately, the menu still offers its winter selection of adult coffee drinks, but they do not make most. If the salted caramel coffee is still served, try it. It's like dessert and coffee wrapped in one."

"I 'm a GrubHub delivery driver who picked up an order from here at about 7 PM on the evening of August 31. Now, listen. I worked in restaurants for years when I was younger, so I understand that 's the height of the dinner rush, and I understand orders don 't always come out on time. So that 's not what I 'm upset about. What I 'm upset about is the fact that I walked in there and stood there like an idiot for ten minutes and nobody said a word to me, and it was like I was invisible. I eventually had to pick out an employee and make eye contact with them for an uncomfortable amount of time just so they would finally acknowledge my existence, and I could tell them I was here to pick up a GrubHub order for whatever the customer 's name was. I don 't care how busy you are. All you have to do is say hello to the person, say how can I help you , and then after the person answers say sorry for the delay, someone will be right with you . That takes like ten seconds total, and it would 've made all the difference in the world. And then, it also only takes a short time to poke your head in the kitchen and ask what 's the ETA on the takeout order. See, what I guess a lot of restaurants don 't realize is that GrubHub drivers work on tight schedules. At any given time, I 've usually got multiple different orders in my possession at the same time, and that is especially true during the dinner rush. So like I said, it 's not a question of the order coming out late. I can deal with that. What I can 't deal with is being ignored or left in the dark. In order to figure out whether I should wait at the restaurant or if I should deliver one of my other orders and then come back, I need information from you. And if you 're treating me like the Invisible Man, then I 'm not getting that information, and you 're inconveniencing everyone including your own customer who I 'm trying to deliver to. Please do better in the future. Service: 1"

"I am an owner of a restaurant in Cheektowaga buffalo from nyc and I have tried bagel jays for the past 3 days.The first day I went I have witnessed a racist encounter with your employees but I ignored it in the fact that I enjoyed the food very much.The second day I went I ordered my bagel and had a horrible experience with the general manager.Not only was he rude but he was very disrespectful towards me and my family.He Wouldn’t even let me finish telling the employee my order without him telling me every second to make sure I tell the cashier that cheese and lettuce were extra. He kept following me all the way up to the cashier to make sure that I told the cashier my order,as if I don’t speak English to inform the cashier my order. Despite the horrible interaction I still went back the third day because I actually enjoyed the food and set aside the terrible customer service.The third day I came in as soon as he saw me he had a horrible attitude and I got frustrated. As a restaurant owner I make sure that my customers are always happy and have a good customer service. I asked for a cup of lettuce with a side of tuna and he whispered to the employee to only put me one lettuce in a cup. I’m aware of what I’m paying for and what I’m asking for. Me asking for double lettuce shouldn’t trigger him as I’m paying for my requested. All in all, the general manager is very rude and disrespectful and shouldn’t even be given the opportunity to service the community of Amherst or any location of that matter) I have given him the benefit of the doubt but as I look at the reviews and numerous customers complaining about the manager I’ve realized that my assumptions were correct. I’ve decided to not go back to bagel jays and I also came to conclusion that I am not the problem and it’s me being a Muslim women an issue. We are in 2022 racism has gone out the window but when I walk in bagel jays suddenly racism hits me. I feel comfortable everywhere else besides this location. It sucks building your name and a business for years for all of it to go down the drain due to something so simple as customer service. When a customer walks in to a restaurant they want to feel welcomed not uncomfortable. But that’s how I feel every morning when I see him. I won’t be back as long as he’s there. Hope to see changes soon ."
