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.

    As usual, we had a lovely dinner at Black & Blue Steak and Crab. We started off with Caesar salad and wagyu meatballs for an appetizer along with the Flower City 75 specialty cocktail and a glass of Alias cabernet - all of this was superb. We chose to dine in the lounge area; our server Meghan S. was wonderful and accommodating. For our entrees, we had the 7 oz. filet mignon with a side of two sea scallops and the red snapper. Both cooked to perfection. Time for dessert! Key Lime Pie and Bailey's coffee along with a surprise birthday dessert. Thank you to the chefs at B&B and to Meghan S. for making our evening most enjoyable.

    Only negative was my rack of lamb came out cold and when reheated was drier and not very juicy. Great service from Nathan and his bus boys.
