    I guess I slept on this gem. The food was absolutely delicious. The 534 Elmwood brisket sandwich was out of this world. The brisket melted in my mouth. It was all topped with heaps of jalapeño slaw, cheddar cheese, and some amazing tangy BBQ! We had it delivered, and the fish fry came hot and crispy! Large portion paired with perfectly cooked French fries salted to perfection. It came with macaroni salad, which wasn't my favorite, but it's a mustard base, and I'm not a fan of mustard. The steak was seasoned and so tender! Definitely can't wait to go back and try more!

    Joe's is great lots of good menu items lots of things to try and all of it is very tasty! I love the casual style of the place order sit eat and go and it's very comfortable inside. Pricing was good as well. I really loved the potato salad incidentally it was delish with an awesome peppery goodness! We always love Joe's make sure you stop in and visit!

    Chicken salad sandwich wrap

    Joes still has the best chicken salad sandwiches or wraps in the town. Hands down! I'm sad they closed the maple location but I will gladly go here when I need one.

    Worst sandwich ever. I ordered sliced turkey with apple and melted brie cheese on sourdough bread. I got dried up crumbles of turkey scraps that belonged in the trash, no cheese, 2 tiny apple slices and a bag containing 5 potato chips. I live too far away to return it to Hertel Ave. I'm in Lockport. I won't be back.

    Tuna melt, not grilled. Soooo good

    Conveniently located very close to the FLW Martin house near Delaware Park. Right on Hertel Ave. There's plenty to choose from. The Tuna Sandwich is some of the best I've ever had. The cuban is completely out of this world. Delicious. Very clean, bright, pedestrian oriented and lots of parking. Thry feature outdoor seating in the warm weather. We were served quickly. Prices are around 11 bucks for a sandwich. On my next return to Buffalo, I'll be back.

    Kind of lacking in avocado

    The service is great, even if we were a little let down by the food. They have kids meals that are a good value at $5.50 for an entree and choice of two sides (or a drink and a side or two drinks.) My son ordered chicken nuggets. They are definitely made with the child nugget connoisseur in mind - if that child favors McDonald's nuggets, and of course I came in with the one child who doesn't. Plus you could tell it was fried in the same oil as the fish which didn't bother me, but did bother him. The actual chicken was very juicy and better quality than McDonald's. The batter just appears similar. I had a sweet turkey sandwich sans sweet potato fries by request. Part of why I've been wanting to try Joe's Deli is because they make some sandwiches with avocado. Sadly, mine seemed almost as low on the coveted avocado as the sweet potato fries. It came with homemade potato chips, of which my finicky son was a fan. The deli is cute with some indoor seating as well as outdoor. I wish there was a little more shade in front. To be honest, I'd probably try the fish fry if I stop in again. If the batter is similar to the chicken, I bet it's amazing.

    Joes is a nice local deli in a cute neighborhood (Hertel area). The hangover sandwich was delicious, highly recommend!

    Chicken salad on sour dough
    Christina B.

    Wanted to try something different so I ordered from this deli. Did a build your own special. Chicken salad with franks on sour dough. Added cheddar, lettuce, cukes, and sprouts. Bottles of pop were severely over priced but I was excited to get a can of loganberry. Chicken salad was great. Not too much Mayo. Good sized chunks of chicken. Fresh produce. I'm a sucker for a toasted piece of sour dough. Finished the meal with a side of Greek pasta salad. Great chunks of veggies, feta and bow tie pasta. Will definitely order again.

    The three of us enjoy this Italian food shop and cafe's neighborhood and also the Elmwood Village…read moreneighborhood when we visit Buffalo. This is a relatively new place on Allen Street. Two of us ordered a different pasta dish and they were great. One of us ordered a sandwich and it was phenomenal. Excellent cannoli and espresso. We told the staff we were visiting from across the river in Canada, which we do four or five times a year, and they were very friendly to us. Lots of products from Italy to buy, and we bought some dried pasta, extra virgin olive oil, and balsamic vinegar. A great choice for a delicious lunch. The decor is very cool.

My friend's House Sandwich was huge and filled with salami, arugula, roasted red peppers, and house-made mozzarella. Another friend's fried mortadella sandwich was incredible. And the fourth person in our party had a huge bowl of delicious ham and bean soup made in-house. We all had excellent espresso and superb cannoli. I have to mention the beautiful decor, which is very Italian islands. The place is a real treasure. Friendly staff, too. Dalfonso's is at 162 Allen Street in Buffalo, N. Y.

    First visit - simple order Beef on Weck and a bowl of Split Pea and Ham soup. Ambiance is a hoot…read more Total 50s, 60s vibe. Was greet nicely. Food took a bit longer than I expected. As there was only 7 people waiting. But it turned out they were ordering food for their businesses or similar because most orders were for 4-more sandwiches. Which explained the wait. Demographic was definitely us Senior citizens. Bathroom is tiny but clean. All in all a very pleasant experience. Any time I'm in the area I would definitely stop by again.

    I was introduced to Charlie the Butcher many, many years ago. My goodness, it was back in the 90's…read morewhen I was in college and patroned their express location in the Ellicott Square Building downtown. Their roast beef sandwiches were the best. The roast beef is so tender, they give you a good portion on the roll and there's a nice flavor, leaves me salivating. It's been quite sometime since I had one, I finally had some time and stopped at this location. I regret to say I'm disappointed in myself because I was stopping for a roast beef and ended up making the mistake of being spontaneous and ordered the grilled BBQ prime rib sandwich. I'm sorry, I didn't like it. So, this sandwich costs $15.99 (comes with nothing extra), it was also on a roll, there was no BBQ sauce (I assumed there would be) but it was just dry, plain, devoid of much flavor, they topped it with provolone cheese, a couple pieces of peppers and some onions but it didn't hit the spot for me. The Costanzo roll was overbearing. I learned a valuable lesson today, "stick with what you love about the place!" So, I'll be back for that roast beef another day. The inside is reminiscent of the local 80's fast food joints of Buffalo, I would call it a little shack. You walk in, lean back, look up at the menu, order and walk around to pay and pick up your food. There is a small seating area, a few booths to sit a party of four. Pick up your food at the counter after they call your name. Nothing fancy, just a quick little spot to eat.

    I've been wanting to try their Sicilian-style pizza for quite some time, and my birthday cookie…read morereward finally gave me the perfect excuse to celebrate. They already have a fantastic thin-crust pizza, so I asked if they could make the Sicilian style with the muffuletta toppings. No problem at all. It took a little longer than expected (ordered for 4:45, ready at 5:00), but it was absolutely worth the wait. Ordering is easy online or by phone. If you get voicemail, just call back - they're probably on the phone with another customer. Now, about that pizza. The thick Sicilian crust had the perfect chew: light and airy inside with a crisp, golden bottom. Every bite was loaded with the bold salty toppings, bringing a savory, slight spice/pickled kick that paired perfectly with the oils and melted cheese. The toppings reached edge to edge, creating a pizza that was hearty, flavorful, and impossible to put down. Please pencil in a visit to The Deli on a Wednesday to grab one of their pizzas. I do recommend ordering ahead to claim your dough. This version reads like a Yelp review and really highlights the texture and flavor of a loaded Sicilian pie.

    Sandwiches here are so good they make your head tilt. Like the weight of how good they taste is so…read moreheavy that you can't lift your head up straight you need to tilt it lol. I had the Sting which features their handmade, always fresh, never frozen chicken cutlets. It also has their hot honey which isn't too spicy it gives it a good kick that compliments the rest of the ingredients. We also got the Art Corvalay which was absolutely amazing. Not only are their sandwiches great, the service here is impeccable. Can't wait to go back and try some more sandwiches.
