Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in East Amherst

Great authentic Italian food in a warm, inviting atmosphere. There are plenty of choices on the menu for appetizers, main and dessert courses. Will return again. Owners make their way to each table during the main course to ensure satisfaction as well.

We were celebrating our 7th wedding anniversary. The decor was festive with Christmas decorations, beautifully done as usual. Our reservation was for 7:00 but were told they were running 15-20 min behind. The bar area was full and it took awhile to get our beverages. We were under the impression that there was a dress code for the dining area, yet so many people were in jeans and very casual attire and allowed into the dining area. That was disappointing as we were expecting a higher end atmosphere. The food was exceptional, as usual. Our server, Eric, was very attentive and apologetic that our main course took so long due to over-cooking of the filet. Eric suspected something was wrong and immediately addressed it with the the kitchen staff. It was worth the wait. Our appetizers were great and helped to lessen the tardiness of getting the entrees. This is our favorite place and we truly enjoyed our evening.

The service was excellent as always! The server and his assistant were very nice. Food came out quickly, and our server was able to recommend what sauce I should get with the elk special. We also got a free dessert when they learned we were celebrating getting married the day before. This is definitely the restaurant we go to for special occasions!

Great food, great atmosphere, great service - tucked away in a classic Buffalo neighborhood. We had a fantastic experience, and will absolutely be back. We came hungry and left happy!

One of the best dinners we have had in a long time, and we have been to a ton of top notch restaurants all over the country Portions are large and an excellent chef and wait staff Highly recommend it
