    Chicken focaccia with pesto
    Melissa G.

    Super friendly staff and amazing food. Perfect lunch spot after a long day of walking. Everything was so fresh and tasted homemade.

    Pastrami melt
    Gillian A.

    Me: I'll take a pastrami melt. Guy at cashier: ooooo that's a good one!!! We need more hypemen/hypewomen behind cashiers lol makes me confident that I'm ordering correctly! And he was right. The pastrami is made in house and it was super tender in the melt. Tasty and not too salty. Light airy-toasty sandwich bread. A bit too heavy-handed on the brown mustard though but not a dealbreaker. Kettle chips were a little cold but I still enjoyed their crispiness. Snappy pickle wedge. Altogether it was a pretty satisfying meal. Easily sharable for two not-super-hungry people! As for other things that I tried here, the everything bagel was overly-toasted tough and was rather thin. Chocolate chip cookie was scrumptiously chewy in the center and crispy on the edges. Iced coffee tasted standard. 4-ish stars for the food/drink but with such a lovely staff this place gets an overall 5.

    A little gem in an otherwise kind of run-down, casino dominated part of town. Plenty of space inside for small groups, with relatively simple decor. They have a breakfast menu til 11am and a lunch menu after. Really solid sandwiches. My wife and I went halfsies on a reuben and a chicken salad sandwich. We got the best of both worlds: The reuben was crunchy and toasted whereas the chicken salad had much softer, chewier feel. Both were stuffed with meat, so nice and filling. Each came with a side of chips that seemed home-made. My toddler is really into soup so she tried a ham and kale minestrone type soup. It was a very heart bowl and made for a good kid meal (plus the chips she stole from me!). All in all a very nice lunch spot.

    Reuben Lunch Sandwich with soup and house made chips

    This is a little quaint eatery that has the painting of Tesla on the outside. It has a coffeehouse feel with the delicatessen taste. I picked the Reuben on Sourdough and the bowl of Turkey and bean soup. I was ecstatic that they offered Coke Zero in the bottle since many other local places only had Diet Coke. That being said, the Reuben sandwich was good, but not great. It came with home made chips that were cold and soggy. They kept them in a box on the front counter near a clear plexiglass barrier. The soup was in a very small cup and for $6.00 I would have hoped for a better sample. The flavor was ok, but nothing to rave about. Now the worst part, I'm not sure if anyone in food service nowadays understands the concept of food safety. I watched the lady that made my food, take out her cell phone multiple times with her food prep gloves on and go from the phone in the pocket to preparing food plates. The other younger girl did the same thing, but worse, she used the dish rag to clean tables and counter, grabbers her phone to check and then took bread from the shelf and place them in bags. They never changed their gloves and continued to prepare food as they switched from personal items and food items. I'm amazed I didn't get sick, This is the worse case of cross contamination seen in a while. I also believe the owner, a man, watched it all and then took the bread from the you girl and left the store. I won't be back and I hope they make changes to their food handling procedures. The gloves are for customers protection, not to keep the prepares hands clean.

    Amazing local sandwich shop! Wonderful ambiance and energy. Service was helpful, accommodating, and competent! Definitely hope it's still here next time I visit Niagara! The food itself was excellent quality of ingredients, made to order with brisk service, and wonderful flavors without over complicating. In short, done right!

    Pre-reheated thanksgiving meal for 2-$50. So much food, very flavorful!!!
    Stephanie G.

    Ordered another Thanksgiving pre-fix meal this year and it was just as delicious as I remember! It's a great value--tons of food for $50. It's really easy for when I fly in to Buffalo for American Thanksgiving but then go to Canada to be with family... but it's not Thanksgiving in Canada on the same day so we just take Thanksgiving across the boarder and have a lovely meal! Soon I'll move to Canada and will cook my own Thanksgiving meal but until then I'll happily support this local business and enjoy theirs!

    Gnocchi says thank you!

    We traveled to Niagara Falls with our little corgi and stopped by this restaurant to eat at 1 pm. The trip was long and our little corgi was a little stressed out and wouldn't eat her dog food. We knew that one thing she reliably eats is eggs. We asked the restaurant for some eggs. Despite the fact that it was past breakfast hour, they still kindly scrambled an egg for us and gave it to us for free. So our corgi baby had something to eat, and she was very happy and grateful.

We were fortunate to be seated, as they take reservations only through their website at pariscrepescafe.com. After 5pm Friday and throughout the weekend (as well as every bank holiday) street parking is free, in an attempt to lure customers. It's fair to say the neighborhood is, "in transition", but the blocks around this restaurant are lovely. Every shop is a small business owner, with none of the chain stores that plague downtown. We were seated immediately. The restaurant does breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and has a nice list of wines and coffees. Our waiter was very friendly and professional. The French press coffee was spectacular, and the Chantilly cream I ordered as a side was spritzed into my coffee cup with every refill. (I always say, "yes" to schlag Sahne!) The menu has about 12 choices of gallettes (savory) and 12 choices of crepes (sweet). Both are thin buckwheat pancakes with extensive, yummy fillings. It was hard to choose just one! I opted for the galette Thalassa, which is filled with a mesclun salad, cherry tomato halves, mandolined radish and cucumber and red onion strings, covered with lox, capers, a dab of sour cream and a teaspoon of black caviar. It was a feast! My husband had the galette Savoyard, with a scrambled egg and prosciutto. I can tell he liked it by his silence after it was put in front of him!

My spouse had the hanger steak with eggs benedict sitting on a bed of fries and an arugula salad with dressing next to it, and a wonderful sauce with mushrooms and little pearl onions on the steak. And yes of course we had dessert. A crepe with chocolate and salted butter- simple but fabulous. They have lots of savory and sweet Crepes to choose from.

From the moment you land, you're surrounded by awesome alien and UFO décor that's fun, nostalgic, and packed with personality. If you're looking for a place with zero atmosphere... this isn't it. This place is out of this world. The crew here is incredibly friendly and welcoming, proving that if aliens ever do visit Earth, they're apparently running this restaurant. The food deserves its own five stars. We had the Eggs Benedict, Belgian waffles, perfectly crispy home fries, and the absolutely massive 12-ounce steak and eggs. Every bite was fantastic, the portions were enormous, and the prices were shockingly reasonable for Niagara Falls. One of the coolest touches? Instead of waiting for coffee refills, they leave a whole carafe of hot coffee on your table. My caffeine levels reached escape velocity, and I was perfectly happy about it. Here's the biggest compliment I can give: we came back the very next morning because we couldn't stop thinking about it. Same amazing food, same friendly service, same awesome atmosphere. Whether you're a local, a tourist, or just passing through this corner of the galaxy, make this your first breakfast stop.

I thought I'm going to have to check this place out for myself. So here's what I discovered. The food is okay, not amazing but just okay. Probably the lowest priced breakfast I have seen in Niagara Falls. They do not offer you free water, it's all bottled. Coffee is 4 bucks, which is pretty standard. I think the modus operandi is this: they get you in with the cheap buffet and then up charge you for anything else you want to order. Which I get, the buffet is always a loss leader, and they get you on the drinks which are marked up significantly. So let's talk about the buffet itself. Based on what I read from the other reviews, the hot ticket would be to get there right when it opens. That way the food has just come out, it's fresh and hot, and there is enough of it. I had the eggs, the sausage, and a piece of French toast and a waffle. I did go back for seconds to get a bowl of fruit, and try out the tater tots. The food was okay. Again, not the greatest I've ever had and not the worst I've ever had. It was a perfunctory breakfast. But again I tell you you need to get the right when they open to get the best stuff. Would I go here again? I don't think so. There are plenty of other places in Niagara Falls that are way better for just a little bit more money. However, if you have a group of people you're trying to feed on the cheap, this is a place to go. Case in point while I was there, two busloads of Mennonites came in and swarmed the buffet. Bottom line? It's a cheap breakfast, and you will walk out of there for under 20 bucks if you just have a coffee.
