There's also plenty of offstreet parking for the tenants. It isn't covered. There one and two bedroom apartments here. The way they reuse the reclaim space is really nice. I can't say enough about this space. Update 140 2021

I was at 500 Seneca for another great Spree Event. It was a Spree cocktail party. There were roast…read morebeef, turkey and chickpea sliders, cheese, fruit and chocolate platters and several spreads which could be enjoyed on bagel toast pieces or pieces of baguette. The spreads included a chopped olive tapas, a apricot mostarda and a caramelized onion dish. These could be enjoyed on the toast points or along with the roasted garlic goat cheese. There was also a cash bar. The event was a way for several merchants to display their wares, among them Blue Table Chocolates, Tommyrotter Distillery, Rebel Ride and several artisans. The wait staff was great, replenishing the various platters and serving trays of tasty mini-potato pancakes and boneless chicken wing bites throughout the evening. They also picked up plates, cans and bottles, taking them back to the kitchen for disposal vs. there being many unsightly trash cans throughout the room. This also added to the event, making the room more attractive.

Certainly, many a bride's dream come true in the making. Wedding receptions, engagement or anniversary parties, graduation or other special events held here will be memorable. Photography for your special day will be incredible in this beautiful setting too. Check out the one-hour photography package they are offering now on their website. A photo on the Buffalo Bills 50 yard line with a personal photographer framed in commemorative frame. Doesn't appear they are holding large events quite yet due to the COVID-19 restrictions. I will be eager to see how things take off for this lovely venue in the near future. This venue is part of the newly formed "BFLO District" at the Eastern Hills Mall. Who knew that Sears could look so chic?! Quite a make-over, indeed! Four stars for now. Let's see if this total flip is a flip in the right direction. Not a flop - when it comes to customer service, value, communication, collaboration with customers depending on them to make their special day outstanding.

I am amazed that the space was an old Sears. The space was beautifully designed, well thought out and is now a destination instead of turning into another abandoned building. In addition to the event center attached is the BFLO store, a hair salon, Chruscicki Bakery, Simply Pierogi and Sto Lat. The space itself is perfect for a wedding or your next big event. It is a large open and airy room with darker wood floors, light walls and furniture and gorgeous crystal chandelier and snowflake accent lighting. The interior design is very modern and elegant with touches of Buffalo subtly added in. Great lighting, tons of parking and a huge bar. To the back of the room are doors which take you to a hallway that connects to the other businesses in the complex. The hallway is large enough to accommodate mingling of overflow guests from the event center.

Angelique was so patient and friendly!…read more It was our first time dining here so she waited while we caught up a bit since our last visit with each other and finally got to browsing the menu. It was a tough decision but my companion ordered a sandwich with a toasted GF bun and I got the Mediterranean flatbread with steak instead of chicken (for an upcharge) and balsamic glazed asparagus. The one thing I'd change is the paper on the metal tray. I didn't want to pickup my pizza to eat with my fingers and I kept cutting through the paper on the tray. We both tried a Surfside 100 calorie Vodka drink - I tried the tea version & my friend tried the raspberry. They were a nice alternative to a beer, spritzer, or cocktail. It was a beautiful Saturday and because we came in at 1 pm, we missed the golfers & brunch-goers. We both agreed we need to come back for brunch.

The cherry coke was on point! The food looked good, but we were disappointed with so much. The fish fry... a lot of the breading was "empty" with no fish in it. The Mac salad had such a horrible taste and we couldn't figure out what the flavor was. Cole slaw looked dry, but tasted better than it looked. But also had a flavor with a hint of mouthwash to it. I know this sounds wild, but it was legit. The fries were ok but seemed like old oil was in the fryer. We did enjoy the dill-ish flavor to the tartar sauce. I had the pot roast dipper sandwich. The potato chips seemed very stale. The sandwich wasn't impressive at all when it came to size and the meat seemed like it was probably sitting around for a while. Nothing seemed fresh. The au jus really saved the day. Pretty bummed out that we're going to be crossing this off of our "return to" list.

Hubby and I often go solo or with friends to enjoy and check out new dining or wineries. Honsberger has become a fave for us. Their patio is wonderful and a good size. They have a quite large fully covered area to the side of the main building, plus then another patio area with tables that have umbrellas. Their pizza is excellent and done in an outdoor pizza oven. They do have other items (mains, salads, appetizers), that are prepared in their main kitchen. One thing we have noticed is that things are taking a bit longer in the Covid world. This is we assume due to precautions taken with cleaning etc. So -- do be patient and just enjoy. We find that they always have some interesting cocktails with their wine as a basis, and some are available in pitcher size as well as by the glass! Reservations for the patio are available via the TouchBistroDine app. You won't find them on OpenTable. The staff are pleasant and knowledgeable. Parking is available at the back and on the side. You do need to have face masks until you get to your table.

Party in North Buffalo!…read more Compact - Party space for up to 100-150 or so. North Buffalo, near Delaware Park and the Zoo, good catering, great, open, easy-to-use space. Street parking. Expanded - Next to the FLW Darwin Martin House is the Greatbatch Pavilion. This large open space has various pieces of historical info about the Darwin Martin House, but it also provides a venue for a cocktail party (up to 150), a formal sit down dinner (up to 100) or a lecture space. I like this space because it is long, open and has unobstructed views throughout. You can really see what is happening from anywhere in the space. You will overlook the Darwin Martin House from this (mostly windows) space. Its an unobstructed view. Gorgeous day or night. The restrooms are modern and functional. There is a space for coatracks, or you can have a coat check. I'm not sure if there is a choice of caterers, but the food I have had at a few events has been good. The service professional and unobtrusive. Its available 7 days a week for rentals. While they don't do weddings or wedding receptions here, they are open for anything else, including the rehearsal dinner. It unique and beautiful. You can decorate to make it "your own" too. Street parking. 10/2015
