    Fresh baked home made bread with veggies and cheese balsamic and olive oil to make your mouth and tummy happy.
    Einas S.

    Fresh baked bread, thick pieces of amazing cheese a variety of vegetables and a delicious balsamic dressing and olive oil , all served in the Butt of the bread ( as it was explained to me) and you have a truly delicious sandwich. My friend ordered hers with their homemade meatballs and was very happy as well. Everything is homemade or freshly imported from Italy every week. Including dessert that was absolutely delicious. The owner and his staff are charming and the restaurant encourages you to bring a picture of your Mom or Grandmother to include on the wall of much loved family. You may even recognize someone you know on that wall. Highly recommend stopping in and either taking your food home or relaxing and eating in.

    This place is incredible! The food is such high quality, imported from Italy. The two guys that own it are so nice and truly take so much pride in their food. This place is a hidden gem for sure. Please try it out and support this place! You won't be disappointed!

    Create Your Own Culetto
    Sara K.

    In a nutshell: excellent and can easily recommend! I placed an order for the create your own culetto via the DoorDash app for pick up (one for me and one for my son) and it did not disappoint! I used a suggested option that is popularly picked by other customers, which was Roman meatballs and aged provolone inside of rustic white bread. It was $30 for 2 of them, which I found to be fair in comparison to other places that offer meatballs subs but also for their exceptional quality here! Upon entering Da Nando, there is seating. It's sort of the order at the counter and have a seat style from what it seemed. There aren't waitresses walking about or anything and it in any a big place. I approached the register area to pick up my order. Although both gentleman working were busy with other customers, one of them made eye contact with me and gave me a nice smile to acknowledge my presence which I appreciated. The other man finished up with his customer first and came over to help me. He was also kind, making eye contact and a smile. My order was ready, and when the other man heard I was doordash, he instructed they guy help me me to give me some sourdough on the house. He said "we take care of our doordash drivers"! I found this so very nice! Ironically, although I ordered this for myself and my son, I am actually a DD driver by occupation and very much appreciate this kind gesture! I've made 4000 deliveries and only one other time was offered a free food item so this very much stood out to me. And can I just say that sourdough bread was AMAZING?! I had actually been craving some for weeks now and this hit the spot. It was nice and crispy/flaky on the outside and so soft on the inside with that true sourdough flavor! My culetto was superb! The rustic white bread was of the same quality as the sourdough and held the sandwich together perfectly; no sogginess, no meatballs falling everywhere. I am very picky about meatballs and found these to be absolutely delicious! Not dry. Not too dense. Not falling apart. Sauce was good too and not too much to drown out any of the delicious flavor! And lastly, the aged provolone was excellent! This is another thing I am picky about. I can taste and feel in the texture of a cheese when it is way too processed and this was not. It had a perfectly sharp and aged taste that I love! I found the portion served to be a perfect size for a meal, but if you want more, there's a colossal size you can get for an up charge, or of course you can get a side (I think they have in house prepared chips, cannoli, etc). This place was two thumbs up from me and my son and I look forward to ordering more sandwiches here and maybe getting some more bread on a DD delivery in the future!

    Regular Size Meatball Culetto
    Patrick L.

    This was a wonderful place. I had the regular size Meatball Culetto along with my wife. I had mine on homemade sour dough. Delicious! My wife had it on the homemade white and she loved hers as well. The meatballs are easily the best I have ever had. We each had a cannoli which was perfect. I highly recommend trying this. The staff is super friendly and it has a very nice European feel to it. You'll really like it.

    Bringing Mom's photo next time

    OMG .. HEAVENLY... INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS PERFECTION in a sandwich!! We were merely hungry for a sandwich and decided to go somewhere new hurrying to beat their closing hour. Never imagining the experience we were about to have. It was the end of the day and the question was "first time?" When the answer was affirmative one of the guys (The owner perhaps.) said "let me make you a little sandwich to try this meat." He created in all its simplicity a massive bite of oh so good meat enhanced with some Provolone on a chunk of perfect homemade bread. By now you can guess that Da Nando's is going to be a regular spot (We've already showed photos and talked about this amazing " going for a sandwich" with several friends and I told my brother in Virginia that when he's up for a Bills game that we are going here.). The restaurant is comfortable and pleasant to dine in offering a few high tops and table. You feel comfortable. What really provided comfort were the three guys making the sandwiches. AND THE MEAT OH THAT delicious meat and cheese. They hand stuff the homemade bread (I chose rustic Italian) and soon you forget Main and Transit because you are transformed to Italy. They proudly talked about the MOTHER'S WALL ... "next time bring a photo of your mother in a 5x7 frame and we will put her on the wall while her favorite song is played." These guys are proud of their eatery. We were told next time to at least sample the meatballs and by the way Tuesdays are chicken cutlet day you have to try them but I don't think I want anything other than the amazing sliced meat stuffed in a perfect chunk of bread. I can't even begin to imagine what a large sandwich is. Spread the word ... keep these guys in business and they bragged on their desserts but we were so happy and full dessert was not on our mind. And to think we just wanted a sandwich never knowing we were headed to heavenly Italy!

    Mind blowing!The Italian colossal, classic meatball,and 2 imported sodas. Dessert house made house made cannoli and lobster claw.

    Absolutely 100% phenomenal in every single way. It's so cute and welcoming inside. It's very clean and smells so good the second you open the door. Amazing friendly fast staff and owner! We were given samples of the delicious bread too. I ordered their famous meatball which blew my mind in presentation, flavor, smell, and texture. It's famous for a reason! My friend ordered their colossal which was perfect as well! Very good crispy crust bread! The Italian meats had so much flavor. The imported Italian sodas were freshening and paired well. The cannoli and dessert with candied citrus fruits were delicious as well. We highly recommend them.

    Food 5/5 Service and staff 5/5 During a business trip I was able to find this local gem! Drove over, but the open sign was not lit up and I started to drive away. As I looked back boom the sign lit up! I was given a warm welcomed by the staff and owner. This spot is def top tier! The food was very good; bread was warm, the cheese had a great flavor and the sauce was on point! As I ate, the owner and I chatted for over 30 min sharing stories. Gave me a bit about the background of how the restaurant came to fruition. Def loved the mother's wall and all the photos of the amazing mother guest put on the wall. I don't live in the area otherwise this spot would be a regular stop! If you see this spot make sure you stop in a support the local business!

    True, authentic Italian meal with such friendly, customer service in a colorfully-decorative setting surrounded by family photos, customer's photos and memorabilia from Italy. The culettos, arancinis, and fresh-baked bread were first class. The sauce was rich and flavorful without being overly sweet or aggressively acidic. Don't forget to save room for the tiramisu and cannoli! They are of out this world. Extraordinary!

    Entrance

    Great food and service. The owner is a very nice guy who gives you a history of the food and of himself. Gave us many samples before we ordered and everything was sooo good. We went with the Italian wedding soup, meatball sandwich and cannoli's. Everything was top notch. The salami we sampled was by far the best I ever had. Bread was also out of this world!

    Food was good, as expected and higher quality than a traditional diner. Fresh cut fries, fresh…read moreingredients overall, quality bread/rolls. Service was quick and helpful. Small, but no wait...more seating than you might expect from the outside. Ample parking.

    Went around 12 on a Sunday, there wasn't a wait though it was busy. There is a parking lot but it…read moreshared with the restaurant next door so not a lot of spots. The person I was with ordered a Cafe Freddo, there wasn't much of a description besides coffee but they were willing to try. They were not a fan of it, they usually drink regular coffee or fraps so it could just be the type. They ordered Double Chocolate Chip Pancakes and bacon. They expected the double to mean the batter had chocolate in it too, though there were just chocolate chips inside and chocolate syrup drizzled on top. Overall, they were fine, not the best but not the worst. The bacon was fine, a bit more cooked than we like, but good flavor. I ordered the Eggs Benedict, which is one of my favorite breakfast item which came with home fries. With the Benedict there wasn't a lot hollandaise, which I do like a lot of. I asked for extra and was told there would be an additional 1$ charge. The issue here is the Eggs Benedict was already $17.95 which is about $3 more than the average Eggs Benedict in WNY. Overall, the hollandaise was good, just not a lot of it. The home fries were also good as they were crispy the way I like it. The feel of the diner is pretty neat, it's very retro inside and offers a different space to eat compared to typical restaurants. Overall, we would recommend Lake Effect Diner if you're into the diner experience as a one time visit. The food is fine, but not worth the higher prices. There are several other breakfast spots in WNY which are better priced and have better food. I talked with a few other peope after the visit and they all agreed in this sentiment.
