    I adore the wine selection here. The bartenders are always wonderful. I love to sit at the bar or in the cute outdoor area.

    Stopped in to try the most recent chef pop ups. Both I attended were incredible! Chef Darian and Chef Yurt's food was spot on. The pasta came out so quick and had the perfect amount of spice! I had mine with shrimp. We were glad we got there early because it was packed! Chef Yurr's chicken sandwich was HUGE; large pieces of chicken hanging off both sides of the roll. I had the Yurr sauce and it had a bit of a kick which I loved. It was served with potato chips which I thought were a bit too salty. We also tried the chorizo Mac and cheese. I loved it, my fiancee is not a huge chorizo fan, but he also enjoyed it. I hope they keep these pop ups happening!

    Great staff, beautiful space, delicious brunch, and always great wine beer and cocktail selections

    Small menu but great drinks and atmosphere. Good for large or small groups and nicely decorated for the holidays. We stayed on the beer train that night and didn't get to experience their wine but I will definitely be back to try some of the wine offered! The beer list was limited but would apply to any beer drinker whether they like hoppy or light beer.

    Great place to go and relax after a long week of work with one of my friends. We tried a new fruity beer and a side of gummy bears (fun treat) while we sat outside next to a fire. Had lots of laughs and would definitely go back to try more variety of beers or wines.

    Had a bridal shower here today and everything was great. Food was delicious and the service was on point. Emily was very pleasant and easy to work with. I would highly recommend having any function here.

    Nice atmosphere

    This is not easy to find. Great spot. Cool atmosphere and vibe. The bartender completely BLEW IT major league. My girlfriend got a cider, I ordered a nitro cold brew, and he said it's a coffee. Ohhhhh, um, I guess I'll have same as well. I wanted a beer. She ordered chips and onion dip. They were really tasty and way too Greasy. We didn't even eat them. She was checking out their Instagram page, and told me they had a beer cooler. We saw it on our way out. What a elementary mistake, by the bartender. This place needs to EDUCATE it's staff. Buffalo is a blue collar town, people drink beer at. A wine bar, and just snacks is a formula for certain death. Their chances are shit as they are now. It definitely has potential but I can't see how they're going to survive without adaptation. ADAPTATION and this could be really great

    Beignets !!! This place is such a cute wine and beer bar with excellent food, too!!!

    We absolutely loved our first experience at Alchemy last night. After searching for a spot for dinner, we found Alchemy and decided to give it a try. I was nervous about trying to go out on a Friday night without reservations, but when I called, the gal said they had plenty of room, so we headed over. We ordered a glass of wine, a beer, some fingerling potatoes, pasta, and beignets. (For those wondering - About $100 total, including tip.) Everything was out of this world. The sauce that came on the delicately decorated potatoes was so interesting - creamy/sour/floral. The pasta noodles were so delicious - and the peas/pine nuts/grated cheese made it such a simple, fresh dish. And I had been craving beignets! These did not disappoint!! These little heavenly pillows of love paired nicely with the raspberry sauce they came with. Unfortunately, as vegans, we needed to cheat a little bit, but it was completely worth it for a night out to celebrate a new job offer. We can't wait to go back.

    I think I have found my new favorite wine. I ordered the Pinot Nero and it was the perfect red wine for a summer night. It was light but not sweet, I am obsessed! I also Love the environment here. It's open and welcoming and they have a great patio with a fireplace for cooler evenings. Would definitely recommend to come here for a drink or to host a party. I have not eaten off the food menu but everything looks delicious and I can't wait to come back to try!

    Chicken & Waffles and Apple Slaw

    So I'm always excited to try a wine bar as we don't have an abundance of good spots in the South Towns. Alchemy has a good location and it's super cute with a good outdoor patio. I love that they also offer music and other events on occasion. We went for brunch which is limited to a couple days and had the avocado toast with egg and chicken with waffle with apple slaw. The avocado toast was pretty to look at and enjoyable. I'm a picky eater and would have preferred the egg to be warm, not cold. ‍ unfortunately, the waffle was underwhelming - a bit soggy, the chicken was dry and bland, and the apple slaw lacked the acidity necessary to balance the dish, but the service was warm and pleasant so maybe it was an off day? Now to the mimosa. This is a wine bar and I wasn't expecting it to be more like orange juice. Would be nice if the Orange juice was served with a separate small bottle of Prosecco so we can mix to our own liking. Otherwise it was a lovely experience and I'd love to return for cocktails & music.

    Today was their soft opening for Burgerfest and they'll have a grand opening in August. My husband and I met the owner and she's very nice and personable. We joined their Stem Club for $150/person, which gets us our own numbered wine glass on display, discounted glasses of wine, and 20% off our first bottle each visit. The atmosphere seems pretty cool, with a wide open bar area and outdoor patio. We're excited to support a new local business with local owners!

    I tried out this new place in the heart of Hamburg for restaurant week with a group of friends and overall it was a pleasant experience. You can tell they only use the finest ingredients (the majority of the food menu is small plates or desserts) . My restaurant week offer was 2 glasses of wine (usually $8 a glass) and a charcuterie tray for $30.18. Another lady in the group got the deal with those 2 glasses of wine and two small plates (a grilled cheese with a side of soup for dipping and strawberry Brie baguette were her choices). The only thing I was disappointed in was that it was more of a counter service /grab your drink at the bar and they would bus your food to the table , I was expecting to be waited on by a server for that level of cuisine/beverage choices.

Around 3:45 we parked out front and my wife and I plus our 2 children walked in. We were really turned off by the woman who greeted us.

We were blessed with the most incredible waitress, Meghan, that turned our experience completely around. She knew the menu well. Was attentive without being overbearing. The best thing about her was her genuine love for Butera's quality of food and her appreciation of the management. The chicken parm, the chicken broccoli penne, the stinger sandwich, and the chicken alfredo were all excellent! Salad was served cold and was one of our favorites. Going back for sure.

I was a little hesitant after reading several reviews that mentioned poor customer service, but we decided to give it a try anyway. Thankfully, our experience was much different. Our server was excellent. She was attentive, patient, and even offered drink samples when we were unsure what to order. For appetizers, I ordered the pizza flight featuring the stuffed banana pepper, stinger, and chicken spinach pizzas. The stuffed banana pepper wasn't really my favorite, but the stinger was absolutely delicious. The chicken spinach was good as well. While everything was enjoyable, nothing really wowed me. I also tried the French onion soup, which was flavorful, though I wasn't a fan of the heavy amount of Parmesan cheese on top. A friend ordered the garlic Parmesan wings and found them to be dry and overcooked. She ended up asking for extra sauce to help with the flavor and texture. Overall, I'm glad I had the opportunity to experience the pizza flights and see what Butera's had to offer. The service was great and the food was decent, but it wasn't memorable enough to bring me back for another visit.

When our entrées arrived, only four of the eight meals were brought to the table. We had to remind our server that the remaining meals were missing. About 10 minutes later, only three more meals arrived, leaving one person still without dinner. Once again, we had to ask for the final meal to be brought out. No one at the table should have to eat at different times because of such poor coordination. The food itself was also underwhelming. The steak fajitas were especially disappointing--they consisted of a few somewhat tough pieces of steak with no peppers or onions, which are basic ingredients for fajitas. The steak hoagie was similarly sparse, containing mostly shaved steak with very few vegetables. To make matters worse, the fries served with the meals were cold. Our appetizer was also mishandled. The charcuterie board arrived with salami, cream cheese, and cheese, but no bread or crackers. We had to ask for those to be brought out. We also had to request small plates because none were provided. Finally, throughout the meal, dirty dishes--including our appetizer plates--were never cleared from the table, leaving us surrounded by stacks of dishes until we were finished. Overall, this was a very disappointing dining experience. Between the disorganized service, multiple forgotten items, cold food, and lack of attention to basic hospitality, we expected much better. Unfortunately, we won't be rushing back.

The bar upstairs didn't have as good of a cocktail menu as inside, which was okay! We ordered our food directly at the bar. Black Smoke used to have a delicious BBQ inspired menu. They have recently updated their menu, and I wasn't impressed. We ordered the Mac and cheese croquettes, the steak flatbread, and the chips and dip. The Mac and cheese balls were good but they were very heavily seasoned with Italian seasoning - it was a little overpowering. I had heard great things about the steak flatbread - steak, goat cheese, caramelized onions, and fresh spring greens. The flatbread arrived and was cut into these little triangles and was stacked on top of eachother and the spring greens seemed like they were cooked on the pizza instead of sprinkled on after. This made the flatbread taste kind of swampy and completely negated the delicious onion and flat cheese combo going on. If you got a bite without the spring greens it was tasty. The chips and dip were the one thing I had no issues with. The chips were thick and homemade and the dip was creamy, oniony, and delicious!
