Food: terrific. Drinks: amazing. Atmosphere: really good. I just wish the hostess greeted us better; it put a sour taste on the whole day

Just passing through Buffalo and our friends took us to Betty's for lunch. Our party of 6 had 3 vegetarians. The food was AMAZING! The beefless Weck sandwich was outstanding! So was the scrambled mess. The breakfast burrito and everything... great flavor, portion sizes and ambience!!! 5-Stars! read more

Food is great, service is better, vibe is the best. I love Betty's and don't go nearly enough. I should definitely go more. So should you. read more

They used to be so good, but now they seem to coasting on that history. The shrimp and grits were overcooked and so was my turkey hash.

We were excited to try this place after reading the reviews; however, a bit of disappointment hit right away due to how unfriendly the hostess was when we arrived. We decided to stick it out, and I'm really glad we did. Once our waiter came, things turned around quickly. The drinks were amazing, creative, balanced, and the pours were definitely generous. It was a Saturday, so the brunch menu was in full swing. The atmosphere is really unique it's set in what feels like an old home, filled with bold artwork that gives off a cool West Coast art gallery vibe. It's one of those spots where you can just sit back and enjoy the energy. When the food came, it was beyond incredible. Every dish hit the mark, and our server was attentive, kind, and clearly cared about the experience. If the greeting at the door matched the rest of the service and food, this would have easily been a five-star experience. read more

Wow. And I mean that wow. We were blown away. Betty's lived up to the hype! We came here for brunch on a Saturday morning and got seated pretty quickly for 2 without a reservation. We got 2 blood Mary's which were top notch. Better than most brunch spots, you can tell they have perfected their bloody recipe! John K who I believe is also the bartender was our waiter and let me tell you, he is GOOD. We were very impressed with him. He's whipping up the most delicious drinks, keeping your coffee hot and topped off, and at your service with a very friendly and welcoming aura. We love him! The ambiance is lovely, very warm and cozy. And the food was A+. I finished my entire quesadilla and Matt finished his entire plate. We are definitely going to be returning here! read more

I thought the food scene in Buffalo was all about the wings, but my trip to Betty's proved otherwise. I stopped by for brunch with my girlfriend. Since it was crowded, we took two empty seats at the bar. I was going to order breakfast food, but when I saw a meatloaf sandwich on the menu I couldn't resist ordering it. The meatloaf had BBQ sauce on it and the bread was a toasted rye. It was by far the best meatloaf sandwich I've ever tasted! The meatloaf was cooked perfectly. My girlfriend ordered the Cuban sandwich. It wasn't a pressed sandwich, so my first thought was that I made the better choice. But then I had a couple bites of her sandwich and was blown away yet again. It had the perfect ratios of all the meats and the toasted bread was better than the usual cuban sandwich bread. It may have been the best cuban sandwich I've tasted. Both sandwich choices were huge hits with our palates. The macaroni salad she got with her cuban was much better than my standard home fries. If I lived in Buffalo I'd be a regular at Betty's/ read more

Brian was AWESOME this past weekend! He was friendly and gave amazing service! Our food was so so yummy (veggie burrito for me and French toast casserole for my companion). Bloody Mary and Mimosas were equally delish! So glad we came in for brunch! read more

Great place for brunch. Interesting drinks, interesting specials. Really great food. I've never had a huge wait or had to park far awaY

Service is great! Love it for breakfast too. I highly recommend it. Parking may be a challenge however.

Ate late morning during the week, so there was no wait at all.once you walked in, it smelled so damn good. Coffee was good and ended up getting the break-a-dilla and it did not disappoint. Would got it again, and the home fries were seasoned and good as well. My girlfriend having some gluten free toast with her meal and it was light and not a heavy dense bread like some gluten free breads are. Would absolutely come back. read more

Wonderful little restaurant with great vibes. I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast burrito and husband enjoyed his turkey avocado sammy. Excellent service. Interesting cold drink choices like loganberry soda. They also serve delicious coffee and have a cocktail menu. read more

What a find! Betty's is such a great breakfast spot -- total diamond in the rough. The location is tucked away enough that you kinda have to mean it when you go... but wow, it's so worth it. Everything we had was delicious -- and the staff couldn't have been nicer. They recommended a few dishes and, honestly, everything they suggested was spot-on (basically, there's no wrong order here). The drink options are great, the food is even better, and the specials somehow manage to top the menu. Even the wait was nice -- it's just one of those places with a good vibe all around. So glad we stumbled on this spot. We'll definitely be back! read more

The reviews set our expectations way too high. Between the inattentive service and the bland food, we paid way too much to not even eat 1/4 of our food. Maybe it's a local, nostalgia thing but definitely disappointed as a tourist. read more

This is a busy little restaurant but we only waited about 10 minutes for a table. The food was all very good and the Souvlaki was delicious. The salad was made with a spring mix and even though I would have preferred romaine, it was fresh. The pickled onions, tomatoes and feta topped it off nicely. The service and staff were the very best part. Coffee was topped off regularly and multiple staff checked in on us the perfect amount of times so as to be attentive but not so much to be a bother. We will go back. read more

This is my favorite local breaksfast spot in buffalo! I ordered the quiche from the brunch menu and it was gone in a couple minutes. On Sunday mornings when it's super busy, we try to sit at the bar. John is an amazing bartender. He's super friendly and is always checking up on us as well as everyone around us. All of the staff are super friendly too. This place gets busy really fast! We try to get there as soon as it opens on the weekends. read more

Okay I loved this place!! It was a cute house set up with lots of seating inside and outside. The workers were super kind and caring. The food was so good. I love how the menu is set up because there's not too many options to make you feel overwhelmed. The sausage links and the potatoes are a must have. Will definitely go here again! read more

Service is very important to my dining experience. John, our bartender/server was GREAT. He was personable, knowledgeable, and attentive. It was mid sunday morning so Betty's was jumping. Thats why we sat at the bar. My wife ordered a signature Grasshopper coffee topped with whipped cream. She thoroughly enjoyed it. For meals I had Mickey's Casserole and my wife had Eggs Benedict. My egg, bread, sausage, peppers and, cheese casserole portion was huge! It was a corner piece but even the edges weren't over cooked. I was very pleased. It came with seasoned home fries that were also tasty. My wife enjoyed her eggs Benedict as well. Eggs were poached just right allowing for the runny yolk she enjoys. Also served with home fries. Her portion was also generous. Even at the bar the seating was comfortable and I didn't feel squeezed in even with every seat around me occupied. All in all we had a very nice brunch experience. The only thing I noticed as a slight negative was the somewhat tattered condition of the main menu. It was still readable but definitely showing its age. We will definitely be coming back though! read more

The pictures of Betty's quirky interior caught my eye while visiting from out of town, and I'm so glad we stopped in for breakfast! We were lucky to beat the Saturday morning rush, but the old house converted to a restaurant looked like it would accommodate a pretty good amount of visitors. The menu has plenty to offer- daily specials, vegetarian/vegan options, and cocktails as well. After eating buffalo wings for two days straight, it was nice to finally order a relatively healthy meal that tasted even better than it looked. The smoked turkey hash was loaded with veggies and I would order it again in a heartbeat. Others ordered the chorizo omelette and the breakfast burrito, both of which received good reviews. read more

If I lived here in Buffalo, this totally would be my hang, and that's no bull!! 5 star for everything! Folks flocked here by the herd! Lots of peeps "roaming" outside waiting to be seated! No wonder! It's phenomenal! A local recommended this joint and I want to send her a thank you note! We were visiting Buffalo to see Niagara Falls, and pretty much fell in love with the vibe in this town! All the architecture, this restaurant included, is so quaint and Victorian. The service was fabulous, Adrienne rocked and was super pleasant, just like this 60 degree pre-autumn day! We sat outside under a cozy awning, and enjoyed some delicious food! We had the Peach Walnut Casserole/a bread pudding conglomeration of fruit, egg, nuts, vanilla, and maybe some magic sauce - incredible! He had the Mickey's Casserole with egg, bread, onion, sausage and a mess of other yummy ingredients which came with fruit and hash browned potatoes that were perfectly seasoned! Great value, our bill was reasonable (Go Bills) and awesome, clean 50's vibe washrooms! Come here! read more

Amazing service. John the bartender and waiter was whipping around with speed and care. He was extremely attentive. Food was yummy, standard American brunch food. They do have several vegan and vegetarian options: vegan sausage, tofu, smart balance, vegan cheese, oatmilk. All around worth it! Loud spot but very busy. Very casual and family friendly. read more

Yep. It's delicious. I'm from out of town and looked online for a local spot. This seemed to have solid ratings so I made the walk. When I got there it was clear it was a popular spot. I asked for a seat at the bar and waited maybe 10 minutes. In that time I asked the host (who may have secretly been a higher up at the restaurant) what to order. Without hesitation, she said the biscuits and gravy. I then got seated and asked the bartender (John) the same question. He said biscuits and gravy no doubt. Yes. Yes. Yes. They were right. I don't traditionally like that biscuits and white gravy. It feels too congealed and blah for me normally. That was not this. At all. This was a perfectly spiced sausage gravy with delicious biscuits and sunny side up eggs with potatoes on the side that were super crispy. I also ordered some sausage links on the side, which were massive and super juicy. All in all, this is a no-frills spot with absolutely delicious food. If you're in town and you were looking for a good breakfast spot, this is the spot. I highly recommend. read more

The hostess was terrible. She was very rude and walked right by new customers without saying anything. She was very impolite. The wait took a very long time to get a table. Then the food took over an hour more to receive. We ordered the waffles and the turkey hash. They were terrible and very dry. They were also cold like they had been sitting there for a while. There are also a lot of bees outside. So I would not recommend outdoor seating. I wouldn't recommend going there at all. If you do go, request the server Alice. She was incredible. I feel bad writing a negative review because she was great. But everything else was terrible. read more

Pleasently surprised by Buffalo's attention to veggie options for dining. We enjoyed a hearty breakfast at Betty's (breakfast til 3pm! Nice) Very generous portions. Especially the Breakfast Burrito - flavors were spot on. Scrambled mess was actually light and distinct with autumn tastes. We especially enjoyed our server Brian with his good energy and sense of humor. He was super attentive, friendly and entertaining. He made it more than just a meal. Very enjoyable dining experience! read more

Great atmosphere, cozy and eclectic! Very friendly staff, and the food was so tasty - with some different choices for a change!

Disappointing Experience on My Birthday My boyfriend and I came to Buffalo to celebrate my 21st birthday, which unfortunately started off rough when our car broke down nearby. While waiting for a tow, we decided to stop by this place for a mimosa to lift our spirits. When I arrived, I politely asked if I could set my things down at the bar, and the woman I believe to be the owner told me no -- which is fine -- but her tone felt unnecessarily short and dismissive. I asked if there was a wait for drinks, and she replied, "If you can get my bartender's attention, sure, but we're really busy." I told her that was fine and that I was happy to wait. A few minutes later, she returned to tell me she couldn't seat us "for just two drinks." I explained again that I completely understood and was content waiting at the bar. She then came back once more and said, "You know what, never mind -- we're not going to accommodate you for drinks." I've worked in restaurants and even managed one, so I completely understand how stressful a busy service can be -- but that doesn't excuse being dismissive or rude to guests who are polite and patient. Another person waiting nearby shared she had been treated the same way, which made me realize this wasn't just me. I can't speak for the bartenders or servers, who seemed fine, but the interaction with the host/owner left a really sour impression. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and remembers that kindness and professionalism go a long way -- especially when guests are being understanding and respectful read more

Brian is amazing! Great service! Voice of an angel! The food was good. Great environment! Fun for brunch with friends.

This place always has a line out the door and is incredibly packed with people. It is difficult to get your waitress's attention and they are clearly busy. Their food is pretty standard ( I have gotten a variety of things but my go-to is your normal eggs breakfast). They do have a variety of available options for those who are gf, vegan or vegetarian. read more

Amazing food and presentation. Staff is very kind and ambiance in great. Please give breakfast a try.

It's been years since I've had brunch at Betty's, but so glad I made my way back recently. Everything was just as great as I remembered.
