    Saw on Facebook a post about their soup of the week. Stuffed hot pepper soup. Absolutely had to get in to try it. It was incredible, should absolutely be a permanent menu item. Only available from 4-10 PM for some reason. I had the fish fry. Fish was perfect, fries were meh. Tartar sauce came in thimble size plastic cup and was half full. Server brought more but seriously? Wife had Rueben Quesadilla and enjoyed it. Soup was the highlight for sure!

    Had a great fish fry at JPs! Beer battered fish fry was very good! Sides were also great. I had the slaw and the macaroni salad... both were very good... but especially love their coleslaw!! Service was quick and friendly!! We sat in a spacious back room with many windows that let the sun in. There are several other rooms... JPs is pretty big inside... but on a Lenten Friday you can expect a wait... we waited about 20 minutes for lunch.. but it was well worth the wait!

    It is a big place so no problem getting a table on a Wednesday! Saw pics of the French onion soup so I had to try it, awesome!! Very thick layer on gooey delicious cheese! The soup itself was also awesome, good strong flavored broth and plenty of onions!! We shared the jalapeño poppers special. Perfectly crispy deep fried goodness, not supper hot but a good warming ! Reuben burger- a delicious, juicy burger with tender delicious fresh corned beef . The wife had the Shepard pie, she said it was delicious but would have liked more meat . The potatoes were real mashed potato's . Friendly service! E will return

    We had a great visit to JP Fitzgeralds. This is a fun, comfortable Irish Pub with lots of space, excellant service, fresh food, and a large beer offering. Parking lot was packed yet we were seated immediately They bake their rye bread and rolls fresh daily and you can taste the difference Our sandwhiches were delicious, the wings were perfect *crispy golden outside, juicy inside, and the french onion soup was cheesy gooey goodness! Space is divided in different rooms which helps manage the noise level. Outdoor seating, spacious bar area. Large oarjubg litt. Carryout and cateering. What we tried: French Onion Soup Beef on Weck: Slowly roasted beef sliced and piled on a fresh baked weck roll. The Buffalo Combo: 1 mini beef on weck, 5 chicken wings and waflle fries. My rating rationale +1 Service +1 Food~Taste/flavor/quality +1 Presentation +1 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value

    Burnt fries

    We have been here numerous times and never encountered a problem. Today it took over a half hour to get our food. The sweet potato fries were very burnt and food was not even warm. The server was very accommodating and corrected it ordering fresh food. I am not sure what happened in the kitchen, but was very disappointing.

    We came here for lunch on one of the last warm weekends of the summer. Matt was blown away by their shepherds pie, totally obsessed. I wasn't crazy about my panini. He liked the beet cheese soup too. It's a nice ambiance sitting outside on the patio but bring a sweater because I was a little chilly without a jacket in the shade! Very good service, quick and friendly!!

    3 star review strictly based on our food, chicken fingers to be exact. My husband ordered the chicken fingers and fries and I got the chicken finger wrap. The fingers were SO thin, mostly breading. They are reasonably priced, but I would have preferred more chicken. I couldn't even finish my wrap. Service and drinks were great. We will not be ordering chicken fingers again!

    Mini beef on weck

    I really have to speak highly about this place for over all value! I attended a book club event here with a group of ladies and we were easily accommodated for our group of 6. The waitress was very sweet and also agreeable to separating our checks which was awesome! As far as the food it was really good! The beer cheese soup was awesome and had homemade rye croutons which were fantastic. Really good flavor in the soup. Also the mini beef on Weck was the perfect size! Honestly for $20 I got a soup plus a sandwich and chips. Amazing value and great deal in this economy!

    As an out of towner who doesn't really know Buffalo well, I'd still say the wings here are some of…read morethe best I've ever had. I still love them. And I happily devoured 10 of them today. It's been 15 years since I've been back here. Being a little older and wiser about food now, I do think I can kind of see how some of the locals think other places are better. I now think I have to try somewhere else in Buffalo to figure that out for myself. These wings are really good. I'd eat them happily any day of the week. I wish I could get them back home in Philly. Actually... not for nothing. Now I think I could get wings this good in Philly. I mean they sell the sauce back home. And the technique isn't really a secret anymore. But in the end I will always have respect for the OG.

    Haven't been here in 19 years! Hoping for a great meal! First time we came with 4 kids. This time…read morewe came with Dad. Accessible bathrooms available with changing tables. High chairs available. The women's bathroom needed cleaning, but it was 3 pm so they may have just gotten over a lunch rush. For the most part it was very family friendly and the sounds were tolerable and we could talk and be heard at a natural level. Decor was great and every group that came in was seated promptly. We had no wait time at 3pm. Samantha the server was great! Tables were bussed and reset as groups left. I will come back !

I am not a fan of caramel or peanut butter sauce, so asked for these two items to be excluded. I do not know what other cookie flavor choices there are; I just picked chocolate! It was nicely packed up, with the ice cream in a separate container from the warm cookie. Both made it back to my house, the ice cream still solid and the cookie still warm. It is a wonderful treat. I think it might be difficult to order this after eating wings or a pizza or even a salad first, but as a separate treat, quite nice!

    Top-notch spot for wings! We stopped in on a Friday just before 6:00 before heading to a comedy…read moreshow at UB. The location was super convenient. It was a bit busy (30-40 min wait for dining area), but there were a few tables off to the right of the bar where you could seat yourself. Luckily, one opened up right as we walked in. When seated at these tables, you have to order at the bar. The food was absolutely delicious. I had the nuggiez -- the sauce cooled the boneless bites down a little, but the flavor was still great. I loved all the sauces we tried (saucy hot cajun, medium, and garlic parm). The wings were perfectly crisp, and the steak pizza had a ton of flavor. Definitely a heavier meal, but if you're bringing someone from out of town who wants great wings, this is a spot worth taking them to.

    We were in Buffalo to go to the AKG museum. We were inside for better than 3 hours and were hungry…read more Buffalo....Duff's wings. The GPS took us to the first location that opened (the waitress said the 1960s) a long time ago. The building is sitting at an angle from the road so go to the right and turn in to park or go past and turn right for the parking lot. Middle of the afternoon on a Thursday they weren't too busy. We were seated immediately and waited on quick. I wanted some clarity with the wing heat. Some places hot is mild or hot is burn your face off. She clarified the medium hot is hot so that's what I decided on for an order of 6. My sister isn't so much of a wing person so she decided on a grilled cheese. The waitress was pleasant and answered all the questions we had. The restaurant itself isn't too big but can seat a lot of people. Total wing vibe. Lots of different flavors and quantities went by...everything looked tasty and fresh. They had Yuengling on tap so that's what I ordered. She had a pepsi. Food arrived fast. The aroma was to die for (ok it burns the eyes a little...). Came with celery and blue cheese. The wings were amazing, some of the best I have ever eaten. Crunchy celery and cool dipping sauce. Bigger than most that I have ordered and very freshly prepared. After 6 I was filled up...but I ordered another brew just to wash it all down. If you're in Buffalo (or the area) it's definitely worth stopping to have a treat. Other Buffalo favorites are on the menu as well (Beef on Weck sandwich. We will definitely be back, more flavors to try and locations to enjoy.

    All right, I hope everybody remembers when they read these reviews that it's all a matter of…read moreopinion I know everybody loves Duff's wings, and well, probably the actual restaurant and everything This was my first time going in there, and I did not care for The surroundings at all. Tables were too close, people are way too loud. I can't eat in loud surroundings. I don't like that, and it was so hot in there that it made me very uncomfortable. I believe all restaurants and bars, etc. should be air-conditioned and make people comfortable. If they're too cold, they can always put on a jacket but when you're too hot, I can't take much off. I ordered the roast beef on Weck and fries instead of potato chips. I was very satisfied it was delicious. Very expensive, I found everything was very expensive on the menu, but if you want good food, I guess that's what you gotta do is pay more. Jim ordered mild wings, they still looked good even though I'm a hot wing person. I was looking at everybody else's huge plates of wings that were coming out and they looked so amazing. I'm definitely gonna get some to take home some time. Anyway, the wings looked good smelled good, Jim said they were very good, my sandwich was good. The fries were good, the waitresses were nice so the service was pretty good. But again too small, too loud, too hot, and those things just don't make me happy. I probably would go in there again and eat if somebody else wanted to, but I'd rather take my food to go next time. One other issue I had is definitely the restroom. That had to be the smallest stall I have ever been in. Anytime I moved I banged into one of the walls. They have two stalls in there, which to me is definitely not enough when you're serving "spicy hot " food. At one point there was five people in the restroom. Luckily, I just had to wash my hands in that visit. But the restroom is way too small and when I talk to Jim about the ladies room, he said the men's room is super small too, so they're probably about the same size. So that was definitely a negative thing for me was the restroom.
