While we were waiting for everyone to arrive, I had a very nice "Old Fashioned". We started with two dozen oysters. We received a couple of bad ones and they were promptly replaced with four new ones. I had the NY Strip and asked for "medium rare". The steak arrived and was perfectly cooked and had a very nice char on it. The steak was very flavorful and juicy. Service was impeccable. The restaurant was laid out nicely and there was plenty of space for our large group. Overall, I would say Giancarlo's will be a must visit, for when I'm in Buffalo.

I was driving by and the smell drew me in. I was alone so I sat up bar and ordered a glass of wine…read more It was Good Friday so it was pretty busy but the service was quick. The bartenders were all friendly, but Tom was particularly helpful. Checking to mate sure that everything was good and offering suggestions. I ordered steak in au gratin potatoes. He brought me cheese bread that was phenomenal. It was served with butter and some sort of sauce that I didn't try. I got a new york strip that was seasoned and cooked to perfection. The au gratin potatoes were shredded potatoes. They were okay but definitely not what I would have expected at a steakehouse. I would not order them again. They had carrot cake available for dessert and it was delicious.

Interesting - the pizzas were prepared by an Indian chef who was manning the stone oven. He came over to meet us on his way out at 10 PM. He was very friendly and we enjoyed meeting him. The calamari appetizer $19 was delicious but pricey. Alcohol always runs up the bill. Two glasses of wine and one glass of Prosecco put our bill to $82 with tax. I liked the Italian pottery decor. The bar area looked inviting and nice with the triangular shaped wooden shelving and yellow lights. Our server was friendly and helpful. I would come back for good Italian food. Probably for a special occasion.

Went on a Thursday night made reservations for 7 at 5:30, hopefully it was just an off night. We…read moredid not leave until 7:30, it took forever to receive the food. We were given one thing of bread which was about 2 half loafs that were never refilled, it also took forever to get water refilled. I orderd penne alla vodka and received linguine instead with no explanation or warning, another person also received a different pasta instead of penne. Overall, the food was fine, it just took forever and was not exactly what was ordered. The tables around us who had 2 or 3 people also had to wait a while for their food, so it wasn't just that we had a larger party.

Great experience, from start to finish. Because we were coming as a party of eight, we called ahead…read morefor reservations. We intentionally arrived early to have a drink at the bar. The bartender was friendly and accommodating. Once seated, we were quickly greeted by a very friendly and knowledgeable wait staff. She answered all of our questions, brought everything out correctly and quickly and was great throughout. There were several appetizers and dishes at our table. Everyone raved about their dishes. The house dressings were great. The fresh bread came with a house maid flavored butter. I ordered the Frutti Di Mare-the flavor was great and they didn't skimp on the seafood. Cute, comfortable atmosphere.

I forgot what my son ordered but I did sample it and it was also good, and my Cherry Lemon drop was great. Overall this a a good experience and I will be going back to try something else

We recently held a funeral luncheon for my grandfather at Rizottos restaurant , and the experience…read morewas extremely disappointing from start to finish. When we arrived, every table had coffee except the table hosting and paying for the event. I had to go into the kitchen and ask staff to bring coffee to our table. The problems continued throughout the meal. It took three attempts to get a salad prepared correctly, and none of the salt shakers at our tables worked. The food service was even more frustrating. We ordered penne pasta but were served macaroni instead and were only told afterward that they had run out of penne. We requested roast beef and expected it to be served, but instead were directed to a carving station. The chicken dish was also not what we expected. At the end of the luncheon, there was a large amount of food left over. I asked for containers so we could take some of the food and give it to homeless people we know, but we were told we could not take it. Rather than offering a sincere apology for the many issues, management only offered to remove $18 worth of soda from a bill that exceeded $2,000. We asked to speak with the manager, but getting assistance was difficult. The most upsetting part came as we were leaving, when the cook came out and threatened to call the police despite the fact that our family had done nothing wrong. The interaction was unprofessional and completely inappropriate, especially considering we were there to honor a loved one who had just passed away. As a former restaurant owner, I understand that mistakes happen. What matters is how management responds. A sincere apology and an effort to make things right would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, we did not feel valued as customers or treated with compassion during a very difficult time for our family. Based on this experience, many members of our family will not be returning.

There's two dining areas, I can only speak of one side to the left of the main doors. This side was decent size and had decent spacing of the tables. The service is excellent, but as many mentioned it is a bit slow. But for me, it was ok because you're not rushed at all during your stay. As for the food, I was throughly pleased on every entree I had. I would say though, I would've loved if they had a cocktails menu. I was surprised to see only wines and beer are offered here. But even still, that wouldn't deter me from coming back and becoming a regular. FILETTO AL CARBONE | $55.00 Grilled 8 oz. Filet Mignon served in a creamy porcini mushroom sauce with cracked black pepper and brandy.
