    I would give a 0 star if I could but anyway super rude took almost 30 mins just to get 10 wings

    Came here to grab lunch on a Friday afternoon and this place definitely hit the spot. Got a shake that was thick, delicious, and filling. First time here and the lady in the front made recommendations based on my liking and she mentioned the pineapple jalapeño chicken and it was a home run. Plenty of seating inside and they have TVs which were showing sport highlights. Good spot for lunch will definitely be back.

    The Buffalo Spot, South Gate, CA 1/23/22... very hot was flavorful. Go hotter if you need a real kick, though.

    OVERALL The Buffalo Spot in the humble little South Gate, CA, has decent game day mood food. RATING BREAKDOWN | Food: 4 | Service: 5 | Environment: 4 | Price: 4 | PARKING It's in a plaza with a few other eateries nearby. Free parking. Just be careful. The area can be a bit congested with the 710 freeway ramps just up the street. LOCATION/AMBIANCE This Spot sits across from ALDI. The indoor eating space is limited, however, it was clean. They had both NFL divisional playoff games playing they day I was in (1/23/22). I am glad they let those boys play without COVID face masks on... THE GRUB Large buffalo fries $13.78 (tax included). "Very hot" was still flavorful. No grisly pieces of chicken, thank you! The fries were hot, but not as crispy as I would have liked. Next time, I would go hotter for a real kick, though. Someone on Instagram told me to try mango habanero. We'll see... SERVICE The young lady who helped me was welcoming, helpful and communicative with all the customers. MY FAVORITE PART... Chicken smothered in buffalo sauce... NOT SO FAVORITE PART... Very hot was not "very" hot to me. Thanks, Dad, for starting me out on spicy foods before I could even walk. Lol. TIP Online ordering is available, but they're pretty fast for in-person orders. #TheBuffaloSpot #BuffaloFries #SouthGateCA #GreaterLARestaurants #jenniinsocal #YelpLA #ChickenShop

    Wanted to show the time he helped. I also asked one of the girls there for his name .

    I called at 9:00 pm to place my order since I know this location closes at 10 , I just wanted to stop by pay for my food and go. However a guy answered didn't even greet me over the phone and just said if I could hold so I said yes he had me on hold for a while so I hung up and called again thinking he maybe forgot or was busy however just the way he answered was in such a rude manner. when I called it seemed like the phone was disconnected so I hung up and called again a few minutes later the same guy answered with attitude I placed my order and headed to the store . When I got there I was greeted the same way as when he answered the phone . I wasn't sure it was him until he spoke and was rolling his eyes when I was paying for my meal . Seems like Ivan A. Didn't really want to be there as he also was the same with every customer that came after . I paid for 4 extra sauces and he just kind of put them on the counter in a rude manner . It looks like he just didn't want to be there which I get it but still . It's not the way to treat customers over the phone or in store . He was literally avoiding the register at all cost . I come here frequently and everyone is nice . I don't know what up his ass to be that rude . It seems like his coworkers were upset with him too because they just kept looking over and looked bothered by the way he was acting .

    Try their peppermint chip shake ($5) full of festive vibes. Mint chocolate topping is super lovely and you get a little sweet candy cane too. My favorite savory item here is buffalo fries ($10/REG). OMG The chicken portion is VERY generous! I went for mango habanero and original bbq flavors - extremely nice. Try also boneless wings ($9/5pcs), these lovely & super tender and juicy little wings will make you happy. IIRC you can get 60c/pc on Tuesday. I love garlic parmesan flavor on this menu. You get some parmesan sprinkled on top of the chickens! They also have A LOT of variety of soft drinks too! And do check out the sauces - they go really well with the burger.

    Out of all the Buffalo spot locations I have tried, this one would be in last place. I was only able to eat the top of my plate because the bottom was drenched and dripping in oil, yes im aware this is greasy and fatty food but this is unacceptable. I picked up a fry and it was dripping oil. I ended up throwing away the whole bottom part which was like half. The service is good and they have kiosks to order yourself. The ambiance I would say is family friendly but one of the tv screens shows music videos and something inappropriate might come up but I think it's fine.

He took our order exactly the way we asked and even gave us great recommendations that made the experience even better.

I'd honestly order them again just for the fries. I ordered the beef gyro, and while the flavors were good, the sandwich itself was disappointing. There was so little beef that I could practically count the pieces. The pita was soft, fresh, and tasty, but it ended up overpowering the filling because there simply wasn't enough meat. The beef that was there had some crispy edges, which wasn't my favorite, and the overall presentation looked messy and unappetizing. There was also an orange sauce that added nice flavor, but it wasn't anything particularly memorable. One thing I found odd was that the gyro came with fries inside the pita even though the meal already included a generous serving of fries on the side. I would've preferred more beef instead. Overall, the food wasn't bad, but the portion of meat in the gyro left a lot to be desired. The fries were excellent, but I don't think I'd order the beef gyro again unless they were more generous with the filling. Based on my first visit, I would not recommend.

My absolute favorite is the Greek chicken salad--I can't even explain how good it is, it's just that delicious every single time. Recently, my sisters surprised me for my birthday by taking me there, and we had such a great time. It made the experience even more special. Their pastries are also amazing--fresh and so tasty. What really stands out to me is the customer service. We had such a kind and friendly server who took the time to talk with us, which made us feel so welcome. That's the kind of service that keeps you coming back. We ended up staying for almost three hours because that's how comfortable and relaxed we felt at The Marketplace. It truly feels like a place where you can enjoy great food and great company.

    I've always liked the food at this place, but today was definitely a big miss. My omelette was…read moreovercooked and the "home style" potatoes were simply boiled, then smashed. Absolutely zero seasoning and no flavor whatsoever in those potatoes. The coffee and the service was great though. My server was very attentive as well as the busboy. It was very busy for a Monday morning and the ambience is not that. Overall a clean place, but the breakfast could have used some seasoning.

I'm writing this review because yesterday I had the most outstanding customer service experience. I ordered the summer salad on their app and requested no balsamic dressing. They accidentally added it and not only did they insist on remaking it, they let me keep the salad they added the dressing to and gave me a card to come back and get another free summer salad in the future. I came back today and had this ham whole what sandwich. You can always see the quality and freshness in their ingredients. LOVE this place.

    This spot is my go-to, mainly because it's dangerously convenient to walk to during work. If I say…read moreI'm "just stepping out for a quick break," there's a 90% chance I'm coming back with a smoothie in hand. I've tried just about everything at this point -- the Summer Salad, Caesar Salad, Strawberry Salad, the panini (so good), the peanut butter sandwich, agua fresca, green juice, strawberry smoothie... honestly, if it's on the menu, I've probably ordered it at least once. It's kind of like a different version of Jamba Juice but with more food options, which I appreciate because sometimes I want to feel balanced. You know, salad in one hand, smoothie in the other. Service is always fast, which is crucial during a workday escape. Anna is the sweetest and the person I interact with the most. She's always welcoming, personable, and makes the whole experience feel friendly and easy. The place is very clean, and they always have protein chips and other little goodies on the side if you want to justify adding "just one more thing" to your order. There's also a good amount of parking right up front, so whether you're walking over like me or driving in, it's convenient either way. If you're ever craving a smoothie or a quick fresh bite, this is definitely a solid stop. Happy eats!
