    We were very displeased with the smoked ribs special. We have had these before and they were delicious. Saturday night they were so overdone which resulted in the ribs being completely dried out.

    Food was fantastic! Our server Natalie was friendly and attentive. Was disappointed in the 'all you can eat' fish fry. The fish was excellent with not too much breading. I usually remove most of the breading no matter where I'm ordering from. However, when asking for more, which took a while to get to us, they only brought one small piece for each of us. Right then and there I should have asked for another...but didn't. Since i peel most of the breading off....this made that piece even smaller. I maybe ate not even 6 Oz. Of actual 'fish'. So for $19...not a good value. I'll go back during lent but will definitely ask for more fish. Overall, the restaurant's food is very good.

    Great place to go, especially before or after a play at the Buffalo Theater/ COD. Atmosphere is always pleasant, good service and priced right.

    I made a reservation & we were offered a very small table for 2. Host offered another table, I accepted & we were then told that we couldn’t have it. There were other tables open. We ended up sitting in the bar. Disappointing as reservation was made 1-2 weeks ago. I’ve been to Reserve 22 many times before & always a great experience which is why I suggested dining again last night.

    I had the shrimp, scallop & polenta dinner. Fabulous! My husband had the beef stroganoff. That too was fabulous. He said the best he has ever had. Every time we go we have a perfect experience. Our server was very friendly and attentive. Overall our experience is always great.

    This place is a gem and they have by far, some of the best food in the area. The ribs are PHENOMENAL and everything else on the menu is fantastic, but also very affordable. The ambiance is excellent as well and the staff are extremely friendly and enthusiastic.
