Double cheeseburger. Remember to say "No salt, please" or you'll get lots of salt.
Jim G.

It's a gift shop. Wait! It's a restaurant. Wait! It's a bar. Wait! It's a convenience store. Well, whatever it is, it's way cool. Have a cheeseburger with fries or tater tots. Get some gifts and Buffalo memorabilia. An eclectic place, for sure. It's easy to get at on #2 William or #19 Bailey (soon to be BRT) buses. There's some steps to negotiate.

Cute place to come and get some food and a beer. Over at the Clinton Bailey market. Stop in and patronize your neighbors.

By word of mouth we found this place in our neighborhood. They had a pet adoption event going on so it was busy but still had lots of fun. Walked around to look at everything for sale. Lots of local vendors including 2 that reside in the terminal. Great way to promote your local friends. On top of that they have a kitchen and sell some good food. They also sell beer, wine and ciders. So you can enjoy some shopping then sit and get some lunch. We will be back and nice to see them utilizing the terminal for good.

What a cool place! Very cool, dog friendly! Atmosphere is a Cracker Barrel type place shopping through all Buffalo made items. The food is all very fresh and fun! I had a wonderful tuna melt with tater tots. My friend had a buffalo chicken sandwich We both shopped afterwards and found some very cool items.

Went to their grand opening this Saturday with a friend and I found it to be a very cool space . Part Buffalo souvenir shop and part cafe... we decided to do lunch here and I'm happy I did . I ordered a BLT with cheese (a steal at $8.95 ) and Genesee Kolsh ($4 ) . Service was fast and friendly plus that BLT was perfectly prepared with crisp bacon . With our purchase , we got a coupon for $5 off a $20 or more purchase in the store , so I bought a Buffalo puzzle and some chips . I will definitely be back , especially since their patio outside looked so inviting !

A dear friend drove to Buffalo from NYC to volunteer at an event and after a long day volunteering,…read morethey were looking for a hearty meal and some good drink. Seeing as I'm a Yelp-er, they wanted me to find a spot I hadn't been to yet, even though I had eaten dinner already on my own. I had The Ridge West Seneca saved in my "Places to Try" collection so I said let's go. Overall, I cannot wait to go back and grab a meal here and try the food for myself! We arrive just before 8pm on a Saturday night to a large gravel parking lot that was pretty busy, but we still found a spot pretty easily. We walked in and the hostess was able to seat the two of us at a booth right away! Inside it was very spacious with plenty of TVs going, a bar on one side, music playing overhead. Indoor noise was elevated (it's a restaurant that has a bar, it's going to not be quiet haha) but the two of us could carry on a conversation fairly normally. Our waitress came over immediately to let us know she'd be a few minutes as there were a few other tables she was handling. Fine by us as that allowed my buddy ample time to look over the menu and figure out what he wanted. I saw the St. Patrick's Day-themed cocktail specials menu so I knew what I was ordering. Our waitress though - Absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, had great personality, and was really accommodating in splitting the check (I took care of all our drinks, my friend took care of his dinner). Our waitress did a great job checking in on us at the perfect time, we never felt pressured, rushed. I didn't order any food but my friend ordered their Steakhouse Strip off the "Large Plates" section of the menu, and boy oh boy, did that look amazing! The 12-ounce strip was cooked to a picture-perfect medium-rare with plenty of tobacco onions on top and around the plate, and served over a generous bed of mashed potatoes and asparagus, served with a small cup of their A1 aioli. After seeing that, I certainly want to come back and order food. My friend really enjoyed their meal, the plate was clean! As for me, I ordered two St. Patrick's Day -themed cocktails: "Sham Rocked Shake" and "Irish Good Bye". The "Sham Rocked Shake" was vanilla vodka, crème de menthe, cream, and chocolate syrup and curls - This was creamy, delicious, not overly minty. The "Irish Good Bye" was Three Chord bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and lemon juice with a lime wedge - There was so much flavor in this cocktail, the lemon juice added a pleasant fruity 'punch'. Looking at the prices for these cocktails, I felt they were in-line with most other places and they were made well so no complaints from me. The Ridge West Seneca really surprised me! I've driven past it a few times and wondered how good it was. From our friendly waitress and service, the delicious cocktails, to the fantastic-looking food, I am impressed. I'm looking forward to coming back soon for another night of drinks and to try some food!

I drive by this reataurant on my way home from work and I finally decided to give it a try because…read moreI was not in the mood to cook! I ordered a 2 meat combo with kofta and gyro meat. It came with rice and salad with your choice of toppings and a ton of small sauces. All the sauces are delicious, especially the Tzatziki.The meats were tender with some crispy edges that gave a nice texture to each bite. I also ordered a tikka chicken sandwich with lemon pepper fries, a 4 pk of falafel with hummus, a mango Lassi and extra pita. I enjoyed it all. The chicken was literally pieces of thigh meat marinated and grilled with your choice of toppings and a special sauce. The chicken was extremely tender and flacorful. I've never had lemon pepper seasoning on my fries but i certainly will now. Yum. The falafel wasnt overly dry and had good flavor along with the hummus. The mango Lassi was tart yet sweet and helps you to digest everything! I will 100% order from here again!

I was surprised. I even liked the beef gyro! It was very tasty. Both meats, beef and chicken, were…read moremoist and nicely spiced. My partner ordered for us saying it's going to be a great lunch, and it was. He tried this place before. The large option was a perfect size for two. It's one of those restaurants where the best way to order is through their website. Or, just look at what they offer and which combo fits your taste buds the best. It would speed up the order process as well (at least for me;). I am not someone who can evaluate Middle Eastern cuisine from extensive experience or frequent consumption, but you should definitely visit Papa's Halal Gyro. It's truly worth it. Then judge for yourself. Yes, the garlic sauce is very intense but delicious. Just don't have it before a business meeting or if you are planning to have a rendezvous soon after your meal. The best, find a partner who loves garlic as much as you do ;). Next time, I'll try White Home/Dill Sauce with just a splash of Mint Sauce, and maybe a little Garlic Sauce on the side.
