• Steakhouse • Buffalo
Booked 40 times today
Our Sicilian Steakhouse is an original concept that celebrates the Sicilian-immigrant culinary experience. Referred to as the "original fusion cuisine," Sicilian food is a historical mosaic influenced by the various conquering nations. Traces of Greece, North Africa, Rome, the Middle East, Germanic nations, France, Spain, and Italy are evident in traditional Sicilian cuisine. At Giancarlo's, our love of history-rich Sicilian cuisine is combined with our interpretation of both the great American Steakhouse and the Neapolitan Pizzeria.

    First time dining at this restaurant. Arrived early and was seated immediately on a very busy evening. Hostess was beyond friendly and pleasant. Difficult to see the menu based on lighting. Was brought an adjustable table lamp. That was an amazing first anywhere. Our server, Victoria, had a top notch command of the entire menu easily answering questions and making relevant recommendations. Amazingly professional and friendly young woman. Food was outstanding from cocktails, to apps, to entrees, to desserts. Everything perfectly prepared and brought to the table at the proper temperature. Lovely presentations. Service was impeccable throughout. Menu is pricey, but you absolutely get what you pay for. I will definitely recommend to others and return again.

    Just make the upstairs dining area a little quieter with some sound absorbing padded square designs . I’ve been in other restaurants where these make quit a difference with the sound level! This would be the only suggestion I would have! Otherwise, everything was GREAT!!! It just needs to be a little quieter! Thank you, Joesph & Cheryl Alaimo

    First of all, it’s a lovely setting and we like visiting Patrick’s rooftop bar. The hostess greeted us and was extremely friendly. Unfortunately, we found out that the table we had booked didn’t really exist and they weren’t serving as all their tables were outside. Though they told us we could get food at the bar, They were kind enough to turn the outdoor fireplaces on for us. The service was great and friendly. Drinks were good. The location is extremely nice.
