    Rare 10 oz filet with twice baked potato.
    Krista M.

    By far the nicest restaurant in the Irving area. My family has been coming to the Colony since my Dad moved to Silver Creek about five or six years ago and we've honestly never been disappointed. I last dined at the Colony last night (Saturday, August 1) and would recommend making a reservation due to the social distancing/COVID precautions that are in place (limited seating). The only reservation available for us was 7:15pm so we were extra hungry upon arrival! Our waitress (whose name I sadly forgot) was fantastic. From her Gilmore Girls mask to ensuring each and every course was to our liking - she was very attentive. We started with a bottle of wine (decent wine list, cocktails, beers, etc.) and ordered a few appetizers including the clams casino and the crab and lobster cakes. My Dad ordered a crock of the French onion soup. Then came our salads... and of course bread for the table... Then our entrees... I ordered the 10 oz. Filet Mignon (cooked rare) and it actually came out decently rare - woo! Of course, I was getting pretty full and was unable to finish the entire entree and completely neglected to leave room for dessert, boo. Anyway, there is plenty of free parking, a large dining area, a bar area, and a menu with a lot of variety although the focus is definitely on the steak and seafood. Even with COVID-19 among us, our waitress was so friendly. My only "complaint" is the price/cost but for the most part, you get what you pay for.

    I have never had a bad meal at the colony yet. That would be spanning three decades unfortunately it's a 45 minute drive or I'd be there even more often, but it was a great place to celebrate when winning at bingo and celebrate not winning at bingo. Service has always been impeccable and the ambience, relaxing and enjoyable, kudos to chef staff and owners .Lamb Chops Lobster Bisque Shower grills oysters

    We occasionally have driven up to this restaurant. It's a long route five & from the outside looks like a pretty common place bar and restaurant. Nothing elegant or fancy. Very noisy. The food is hit or miss. Somethings can be reasonably well done and others dreadful. The one consistent thing is if their prices are sky high. Their prime rib yesterday was $43. Absolutely no justification. Their blackened catfish was $29 which should be about 12 to 15. The list goes on. They aggressively will not except American Express credit cards although virtually every other dining facility in western New York does. Most certainly it's because I AMEX charges a slightly greater percentage to process the charges. It's ironic that one of the restaurant with the most inflated prices "nickels and dimes" customers for a few percentage points. They actually can't except AMEX but aggressively discourage it charging the servers a staggering 10% off the bill for every card they process. This penalize is the server and it impacts the customers. We got a mouthy lecture from the server yesterday and we were rudely admonished to never use it again in this restaurant. I think that was the last straw for us. We go out to eat 2 to 4 times a week but I can guarantee you we will not be back to the Colony restaurant in Irving. Their parking lot is almost never full. I can understand it. I would rather spend my money in places that have reasonable prices, high-quality food and happy smiling waitstaff not grumble bumpkins.

I thoroughly enjoyed it, and everything was really good. Located right on the corner going down Lundy's Lane, the place looks very simple from the outside, but once you walk through the doors you realize you are in for an elegant dining experience. Started out with a orange Pellegrino which was wonderful, they brought out some bread and this amazing honey and ricotta cheese spread. Absolutely to die for but be careful. It would be easy to fill up on that and miss out on the wonders of the meal that's coming. I started the meal off with their Caesar salad which was absolutely perfect. The right amount of dressing lettuce was second to none and it was one of the most delicious Caesars I've had. I opted for the gnocchi oso buco ragu, which was absolute perfection. Be careful though, these gnocchi are no joke. The taste will keep you eating all of them and you will absolutely be ready to take a nap afterwards. Bottom line? If you are looking for fine dining in the Niagara falls area, you would be doing yourself a disservice not going to this restaurant. It's absolutely wonderful and I highly recommend it!

Beautiful, beautiful restaurant with great atmosphere, soft music, amazing service by Juan our waiter. We started with Caesar salad and the bruschetta appetizers - Boyfriend's salad was very good. I liked the capers and strong hint of anchovies in the dressing (which he always has on the side). Bruschetta was not what I expected - I felt it was missing something, not much flavor - although the bread was super fresh and tomatoes perfectly ripe. As mains he had the Americana pizza (pepperoni) and I had the lamb, served with a citrusy risotto and rapini. I loved the lamb! Highly recommend. It was literally so tender that I didn't need the knife to cut it! We asked Juan how the cook made it that way - he wouldn't tell and said it was the kitchen's secret! It was delicious. Risotto was perfect too. I'm not a fan of rapini but it was well cooked and seasoned. Boyfriend regretted his choice a little, although he says his pizza was good - but after tasting my lamb, he was sorry he didn't choose a meat dish. I had a shot of Amaretto on ice and the cannolis for dessert. Delicious and obviously homemade. I was a bit put off that a bus boy pulled out our appetizer plates while we were still actively eating. Hint, if our forks are in our hand and we're bringing them to our mouth with food on it, we're not done yet :/ Not the first place this happens and a pet peeve of mine... but whatever. Also, the couple with 5 kids... 5 kids omg... maybe this wasn't the best restaurant choice for you if you are going to let the two small ones run wild around the dining room and almost hit a waiter with a tray of drinks... but this isn't the restaurant's fault. We will return! Worth it just for the amazing lamb, and a short 5 minute walk from the Doubletree hotel, if you are staying there!

The owner is present almost all the time tending to things and checking in on tables. I have never ever had a bad meal here. Like not ever. Not even a mediocre meal. Always rates very good to great. From the steaks. To the seafood, to the Italian specialties.....just tops. It is hard to get into during the ski season, and not too easy even off season, so please do plan and make a reservation. If you can snag a booth, that is the best. The bar is a great place to come for a drink with a friend or to watch a sporting event. My most recent visit to the restaurant was this past Friday, a nice night in early May. We met some friends here for dinner. We had two appetizers of stuffed peppers which are absolutely amazing with just the right amount of heat, and the Nona's Meatball with gooey rich ricotta cheese.....yum yum. My husband ordered a house salad, which was crisp and delicious. For entrees, our companion couple ordered the twin filets and the fish fry. Both were reported to be fantastic. My husband ordered the Chicken Parmesan and I ordered the Chicken Milanese. Absolutely excellent. For dessert, both couples shared their own order of Tiramisu. I ordered an Espresso and that simply rounded out an amazing dinner. I really can't recommend this place enough.

It's an italian based restaurant that offers bread with olive oil and seasonings to start. We didn't realize that and also got cheesy bread which comes with a red sausce. Both were delicious.

Salads up - nothing fancy, your typical ice burg lettuce, with chick peas, giant slice of tomato and mini croutons. Onions up - truthfully very good "best part of the dinner" other than the dipping sauce. 99% sure it was thousand Island dressing mixed with something, definitely not good. Calzone up - OMG where to begin. Seriously, by far the worst calzone I think I have ever had. Undercooked pepperoni, and mushrooms, all thrown together on one side of the calzone. Other side doughy and undercooked, with zero seasoning. Soggy crust. The sauce was horrible. Chicken Parmesan up - pasta noodles, strait out of a box, with zero taste, chicken way over cooked / burnt "could have used it for a hockey puck", the sauce, simply not good. So to rap it up. I would never recommend Dejohn's to anyone. The place is run down and the food is horrible. We doggy bagged it home and fed it to our dogs. So now my last thought, oh-no ! Am I going to get in trouble for animal cruelty, for feeding them horrible food.
