Fried Chicken Mac and Cheese Yams
Derekica J.

I was so excited to finally get some soul food in Buffalo! Mind you, I'm from Florida and know what good soul food is. Unfortunately, I was terribly disappointed. The food was barely palatable. It looked delicious but the taste was just not there.....at all! I hate writing bad reviews, but I have to be honest. It's only right. The fried chicken was over cooked in old grease. They doused it in pepper, which was all I could taste besides the horrible oil. 0/10, would not recommend. The Mac and cheese was equally disgusting. And the candy yams had way too much allspice and cinnamon, not enough sugar. I'm so disappointed and hungry. I don't know if this is normal for the area but this restaurant gets a hard pass for me. I hope if you decide to patronize this restaurant your food is at least decent. Written by a hungry, disappointed Floridian lol.

Curry Chicken Mac and Cheese Collard Greens Yams

The food is bussin. Very flavorful. The chicken is tender. The Mac is cheesy. The yams are perfectly sweet. And they have 2/25$ deal. Def getting this again :) (The picture does the food no justice lol)

My jambalaya pasta
Colleen O.

Wow! This place is a hidden gem . People always talk about the trendy New Orleans inspired restaurant Toutant that's down the street , little do they know that Brother's has some great southern cuisine for a reasonable price . My jambalaya pasta (with shrimp, chicken and sausage) was the most satisfying pasta dish I have had in quite awhile . It had some heat but not too much so and all the meat was plump and flavorful . My friend got the fried chicken dinner with Mac and cheese , beans and collard greens . She said everything on her plate was phenomenal . To finish , we both splurged and got some banana pudding . (only $4) What a happy ending to a tasty meal! While I should add that the service was very attentive, they definitely do a lot of takeout business, which I plan on taking advantage of in the future .

Over the top fried chicken sandwich and a "brothers" cocktail! Best friend chicken in town!!!! So good!

Best fried chicken in town!!! Fanatics food, little wait, friendly staff! Definitely will be back! $10 cocktails that are fantastic too!

Veggie Plate: steamed broccoli, mac and cheese and yams.
Renee B.

My uncle treated me to dinner at this restaurant. It is situated in a pretty quiet area and parking wasn't difficult to find at the time we went. The inside is straightforward but clean. I ordered a veggie plate which consisted of yams, mac and cheese and steamed broccoli. My daughter had their broccoli alfredo (we omitted the chicken). I do not know what they do to their broccoli but it is out of this world!!!!!! I could've ordered JUST their broccoli and I would've been satisfied. It was seasoned so perfectly, it's ridiculous. Writing this review makes me have flashbacks to just how amazing that side item was. The other food selections were tasty, as well. It's just that the broccoli stole the ENTIRE show.

Brothers Seafood Omlette
Susan N.

I've never heard of this place until my friend mentioned it. It is definitely a hidden gem. I came here for brunch. First off, the place is huge and clean! There were so many good options but I went with the seafood omelette. The portions are huge! You can tell the food is made with love. My omelette was delicious and had lots of seafood in it. The side of potatoes was also really good. I didn't get a mimosa but my friend said she loved hers! I would definitely come back to try other things.

Lemon pepper wings & honey Cajun wings
Andre L.

My wife and I ended up here because we were at Town Ballroom for a show, had some time to kill, and were in the mood for some good wings. Dinosaur BBQ is right there, of course, and their wings aren't bad, but it's not a place we would go to for "good wings," you know? We also decided it would take too long to walk to Gabe's Gate and back before the show, especially when accounting for the time it would take to sit down and eat. I hopped on Yelp and we discovered Brothers. I haven't read the reviews that prevent this place from getting a perfect 5 stars and I don't care what they say. Our experience left us wanting to come back before we even saw our food. From the moment we walked in, the staff was exceptionally friendly and accommodating, leading us to a seat right away with smiles on their faces. When it was time to order, my wife and I disagreed on wing flavors. She wanted lemon pepper, I wanted honey cajun. We asked for a single order of each. Our server then suggested we combine them into one double order. This surprised us. Most servers at other restaurants would happily charge for two singles when you're ordering different flavors, but here she was saving us a few bucks just because she could. As we waited for our food, we admired the surroundings. The vibes and decor spoke to elegance and sophistication, but also simple, laid back, and relaxed. You want to go out for a nice dinner with great food, but don't want to have to dress up for fear of being judged? This place is a great candidate. As for our wings, they were great. This place landed on our list of restaurants to get back to as soon as we took our first bite. Unfortunately, we had to box up half of them and bounce in a rush for our show, but we're definitely coming back here. When we return with more time to spare, we plan to try some of their entrees, like shrimp & grits and/or Cajun jambalaya. As BIG fans of New Orleans and NOLA cuisine, we can't wait.

Burger and fries
Kate B.

Great casual restaurant downtown. Awesome food and super reasonably priced! Came on a Saturday night with a couple friends, we were the only ones in the restaurant for a bit! I heard good things about the meatloaf and Mac so that's what I got along with sweet potatoes and broccoli. REALLY GENEROUS PORTIONS! Meatloaf came with 3 sides. Everything was incredibly delicious, seriously. The meatloaf was awesome! Loved all the sides too. My friends got the burger and the Chicken Curry. Great reviews from both of them. Collard greens were a favorite as well. Had apple pie cheesecake for dessert! You read that right lol and it was great! Perfect amount of apple pie filling on top of a really tasty cheesecake. The whole bill was only about $60 plus a tip! Which is amazing considering the portion sizes! This place is a must-try for sure!

I've thoroughly enjoyed each visit to brothers. I've had a variety of things from their menu, the fried lobster, streak, steak egg rolls, Mac n cheese and my personal favorite the salmon pasta. The portions are nice and the drink options are also good. I've always experienced very friendly staff which always make the experience that much better. Their salmon pasta dish is huge in portion. I feel like it can feed two people (or at least at the time of this review) the salon has a Cajun seasoning and is topped with fresh Parmesan cheese. The pasta is fettuccini and mixed with peppers snd onions. Just delicious. When I've came for the fried lobster, I will say that the batter was a bit thicker but n my order but otherwise another great choice.

Fried Lobster whewww!
Gregory J.

Food is incredible. Chill vibe good for all ages. RnB music was perfect. Great priced drinks and the owners even came by to thank us for coming in. We also head from the owners about the history of the restaurant. Love this place!

What was left of the tasteless salmon
Quansherria B.

Wasn't worth the money... I had the blackened catfish it tasted like NOTHING not even fish... yes it was coated in what looked like seasonings but there was absolutely NO TASTE. I left it on the plate. The greens were decent as well as the sweet potatoes. My sister ordered the salmon one side was so hard she couldn't even eat it. It also tasted like nothing not even salmon. I'm not sure what happened i guess if it's not fried they can't cook. The service was ok like we were the only ones there and we had to wait a while for our food. We had to keep asking the waitress for water, silverware the correct sauce. She would not just walk over and check on us because the party was in the back all the staff could be heard just laughing having a good time while we waited and waited. NEVER AGAIN $90 gone and I still was hungry when I left

On my first trip to Buffalo, one of my friends told me that Brother's was MUST VISIT! And I am so glad I went! The food was so good! It was, unfortunately, a long wait. But it was also definitely worth it. And let me tell you something...that fried lobster WAS EVERYTHING! WOW. My friends recorded my reaction LOL. Yes, it was that good! And so were the collard greens! Brother's is a staple and I will be going back as soon as I'm back in Buffalo!

I know that fish looks really! I was surprised shocked tbh. The fish tasted good, it was crunchy, nice batter on it. I recommend getting it. The mash was okay. I didn't really like it. But that macaroni was really good. It was nice and cheesy and flavorful.

I went to Coco for my birthday dinner and was pleasantly surprised! Very aesthetically pleasing…read morerestaurant, nicely decorated. Service was very friendly as well. I ordered the Rosemary Frites, which were a delicious appetizer. I had the maple salmon salad as my meal, and it was amazing! The chèvre was so fresh, the greens were great, and the salmon, wow! A delicious meal that I got two meals out of because I took half of it home, as it's a pretty large portion. Originally, I was given the wrong order that I couldn't have due to dietary restrictions, but the waitress was very kind and gave me the correct one, as well as taking it off of my bill. I really appreciated that! We got macarons as dessert and they were super yummy as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at Coco, and it will be in my rotation of "special occasion" local restaurants going forwards!

My steak frites plate had a very large serving of French fries and a bit more salad with a few pickled onions. I ordered my steak medium rare. About 1/2 of it was medium rare. The other 1/2 was well done. The seasoning was very nice, but disappointed to have well done steak. Our waitress was nicely attentive, as was her assistant who kept our water glasses filled. The restaurant was quite busy, getting busier as we enjoyed our dinners. I am glad we had an early reservation. I might have missed this note on the menu or website, but there is a credit card usage surcharge. Luckily some of our party had enough cash. The guitar music was lovely, but our table was too close and conversation was a little difficult.

I was told those are only available during brunch -- totally fine, I get that certain specials have set times. However, I then tried to order the martini flight that was listed on the drink menu and was told that was seasonal and no longer available. That was a bit confusing, especially since it hadn't been removed. I also wasn't offered any alternative flavors or suggestions, which felt like a missed opportunity. I ended up ordering their standard espresso martini -- which they seem to pride themselves on -- but unfortunately it tasted burnt. It also appeared that the espresso isn't made fresh, as there was a bottle of espresso sitting on the bar. For a cocktail that really depends on quality espresso, that was disappointing. However my friend did try another cocktail off their drink menu and it was delicious. To finish our visit, I waited about 10 minutes just to get my check while the bartender was engaged in conversation with other bartenders. It made the experience feel inattentive and frustrating. The space itself has a cool vibe, but overall the experience fell short of expectations. I'd love to see more consistency between the menu, social media, and what's actually available, fresher preparation for a cocktail they promote so heavily, and more attentiveness at the bar.

Fun. The menu is pretty big for a bar, a mix of regular bar food and a bunch of other options. Our waitress was really friendly and told me the French onion soup is one of their popular items, so that got me excited. It came out fast and it was pretty good. The croutons were honestly my favorite part, super seasoned and actually had flavor. This was only my second time having French onion soup though and I'm still on the fence... it felt like it was missing something, or maybe I just don't get the hype yet lol My friend got the chicken broccoli alfredo and I got the cajun chicken linguine. The portions are HUGE, like you're definitely not leaving hungry. She said hers didn't have much flavor even after adding salt and pepper and was already planning how she was going to fix it at home. My chicken was a little burnt so it was dry and kind of messed with the flavor, but the pasta itself was good. I loved that they added a little bread to soak up the sauce. The huge portions made up for the bland flavors. Not even gonna lie, a few bites in my stomach said "absolutely not" which is no fault of theirs, 100% on me for going all in on dairy, so my friend ended up taking both meals home. Overall I'd recommend it if you like a bar vibe, big portions, and solid food. 8.3/10

For me, I like my wings crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, well cooked. The wings I had here were excellent. But all the flavor was in the sauce, whereas some people like dry rubs or smoked wings. The restaurant is old and and is not modern in any way. The lighting is a little on the dark side. The service was OK, not fantastic. Would go again, and they deserve 4 stars.

Nice size sandwich for a late lunch, as I took half my meal home for later. I added the brussels sprouts which were both sweet and savory. My guest had the salmon Ceasar salad that they enjoyed.
