Where should I start? You walk into a cozy diner like back in the old days and you're greeted very…read morewelcoming right off the bat. From a glance, the food may look ordinary, but once you start seeing the dishes come out, you notice that there is a flair with this place. It starts with the ingredients, they use, the finest ingredients, and you can taste the difference. I ordered the Mexican omelette, sub veggie sausage, side of avocado, one chocolate chip pancake with New York maple syrup. The omelette was light and airy and had tons of pieces of the veggie sausage, which were flavorful. There was also pico de gallo in it and cheese, which made for a perfect bite. The potato hash that comes with the omelette was nice, crispy potatoes that had the char at the bottom. The pancakes were a star, crispy golden outside, with a soft pillowy inside, and made for such a nice bite. This place knows what they're doing, and the food and customer service are outstanding, and this is a must go spot if you are near downtown Buffalo

Yogurt and granola for me and pies for my friends. It looks the same as it did. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I got the bagel with lox which had cream cheese, lettuce, tomato, capers, onions and lox. But I asked for a vegetarian version. No lox and no onions. And it came with a fruit cup that included apples, strawberries,blueberries and pineapple. Friend had a Mediterranean omelette with home fries and toast. Both of us were satisfied with our food.

Feeling adventurous, I chose a sort of burrito but with an egg outer wrap surrounding a sort of mushroom and pepper omlet filling. This was served on a bed of lettuce with Canadian bacon slides on top. Wow was this good! Service was great, too. This restaurant is on bus routes #23 and #11.

I came in with my 4 year old on a late Sunday morning. After waiting outside for a table we were…read moreseated. Service was fine, ordered a single pancake and breakfast garbage plate. We waited over 30 mins, and I asked the server how much longer it would be. She told me 10-15 minutes still... so around 45 mins for a single pancake and garbage plate while waiting with a 4 year old. She said I can just cancel it, which I did. The server was nice but the kitchen was rediculous, won't be back. Also, the bathroom is down a steep flight of stairs and through some dusty dimly lit basement corridors. The bathroom itself looked like it was from the movie SAW. Like, at least put in some basic effort to make that entire area clean looking and not like you're in a haunted house?

Campfire Grill continues to be my favorite breakfast spot in Buffalo!…read more I walked in on Labor Day 2026 around 8:30am and the hostess said I could pick anywhere to sit as it wasn't very busy, so, I grabbed a stool at the bar so I could watch the magic in the kitchen. A waitress came over with a menu and took my drink order, an easy order - coffee. They gave me plenty of time to decide what I wanted. When I remember my last visit, the customer service was a little lacking but this time, everyone I interacted was incredibly pleasant and very nice! About 10-15 minutes later, my breakfast was brought over with a variety of syrups. For breakfast I went with an old favorite, "Hill" size (three) Cinnamon Roll Homemade Hot Cakes with whipped cream on top! They were nicely sized and made to perfection. I LOVE these pancakes so much that I scarf them down in what feels like two minutes, so I put A LOT of effort into pacing myself and enjoying, savoring them this time. I've been coming here for eight years now and I will say, the prices have gone up but it's not prohibitive and once in a while, you just have to treat yourself. Buffalo has several great breakfast spots and Campfire Grill is certainly one of them. I can not wait to come back for another plate of hot cakes or their crunchy French toast!

I'm beginning to feel like a regular here at Campfire Grill. I brought my brother with me after a…read moretrip to a nearby surgical center. There's something about medical appointments and going out to breakfast that is ingrained in my DNA. This was his first visit. He had no trouble finding enough breakfast items to build a custom carnivore plate with Polish sausage and eggs. I made sure to order the griddle logs with strawberries and whipped cream, after I ate a full plate of breakfast, of course. We were well taken care of by our waitress, who kept our coffees filled. Campfire Grill has a cozy diner feel to it. I'm always looking forward to my next visit.

Sydney was our server and she was THE BEST. Had to order the honey butter pancakes and wow even though it was super sweet it was very delicious. It was bathed in the syrup but it was so good.

The food was wonderful and portions huge! The service was lacking…read more Took several minutes for someone to acknowledge we were waiting for a table and get us seated despite numerous empty tables (which we eventually got sat at so it's not like a section was closed). This appears it was because there is no hostess and the servers are doing it all themselves, so they continued to take orders and bring out items for those already seated before showing us to a table. Once at the table the initial ordering and bringing of the food was fine. We then proceeded to wait an excessive amount of time as our waitress went from table to table checking on everyone else but never even looked our way so we could flag her down to let her know we were ready for the check. Not sure if it was an understaffing issue or what but the service left us disappointed with our experience. The only reason the review is 4 stars is because the food was that good!

This is a little late, but Betty's was absolutely outstanding! I have severe food allergies,…read moreincluding dairy, eggs, and gluten, and the only breakfast I ever get to eat is the one I make for myself at home. I honestly can't remember the last time I was able to order breakfast at a restaurant. While visiting Buffalo with my boyfriend in November 2025, his college friend spent the morning taking us to several restaurants trying to find a place where I could safely eat. After striking out everywhere else, Betty's was our last stop--and what a blessing it was! Alice, our host, was warm, friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared about making sure my food allergies were handled safely. I was able to order a bacon, "egg" and avocado sandwich made to accommodate my allergies, and it was incredible. I hadn't enjoyed a breakfast sandwich from a restaurant in over a decade! It was so delicious that I went back again before leaving Buffalo and even ordered another sandwich to take home. For anyone living with food allergies, you know how rare it is to find a restaurant that truly understands safe food preparation while still serving amazing food. I'm from New York City, and I still haven't found a place that compares. 1,000 stars! I can't recommend Betty's highly enough.

Oh my goodness... if you want to truly experience the personality of Buffalo you have to come to…read moreBetty's!! The vibe is so right, in fact this restaurant has a personality of its own, which matches its amazing eclectic selection of delicious foods. On beautiful sunny Spring, Summer or Autumn days you can enjoy the neighborhood on the patio or you can always choose to dine in one of their several comfortable dining rooms all of which feature art (Some of which you can purchase ) that will get you leaving your seat for a closer look. We were rewarded with two truly special brunch items ... a layered "French toast" that I stared at as a diner near me ate hers and an orange infused pair of delicious waffles. They were perfect and filling (This ended up as our only meal on this beautiful Sunday.). The quality of service matched the food ... we lingered soaking in the atmosphere just enjoying life at Betty's. When asked by neighbors where we went for brunch we said "Betty's" and they smiled knowingly. Once you're familiar with Betty's you've found a friend.

And with the dinner I generally have enough food for three meals because they give you so much chicken! If you are ordering it to go, ask for the salad to be packaged separately and all of your food will last longer. Alton's has it all. Greek specialties, breakfasts, sandwiches, comfort food and fried goodies. This place can get really packed, so on a weekend, be prepared for a wait.

[I did not see it in Yelp for some reason]. I called to see if they were open, and I was told yes. Hard to find, no real signage, and in a simple municipal building. Confusing entrance. I was sure it was a mistake. Only a few cars in the parking lot. Hard to believe there is a spotlessly clean, {nice} diner in there. Walked in, made a hard right, saw a large out-of-place crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, and thought I bet this will be good. It was! Sat at the counter in front. Waited for service, nice guy who's name I didn't catch. Nice menu. I ordered a Western Omelette, my go-to at a new diner), $14.95 and surprisingly didn't include hash browns or home fries [$1.50 more], cutting down on carbs so I didn't get them. Conclusion, great HOT omelette! Worth the money [owner is the chef/cook]. I will come back. Like the crystal chandelier, a newly discovered gem. You have to check it out!

It's got a vibrant rustic-can, loud but comfy feel to it. The place looks cool inside and out, you just know this greasy spoon is going to have good food and it doesn't fail to provide it either! You can order anything and leave happy (from the apple pie to the pig, beef and chicken sandwich). They have booth seating, counter seating for one (or two) and offer outdoor seating with a little picnic table, shaded area and they also accept cash/credit. On the menu, there's pig, beef and chicken items, even a fish fry. They're great for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with or without friends/family. Known for their BBQ, in a variety of flavors, it's simply finger-licking delicious! I like coming here for breakfast mostly, love me some good home fries and a juicy steak. Portions are large and filling. I've also ordered take-out and picked up my order, the staff is super friendly and there's such an upbeat vibe to the place.

Phenomenal food and prices!…read more I got a double bacon burger topped with onion rings, pulled chicken, and brisket that was HUGE! I had to hunch over to take a bit so I didn't get it all over me... great flavor and very delicious. It was a crazy order for me bec I usually keep it simple but this was calling my name. My server was great. She was super attentive and made sure my cup was never out of water. (I usually drink water when dining out) The place is def little so it gets packed quick. A couple booths and a couple tables. Maybe 10 total. Parking can be very tight in front so go to the back or side. I'll be back to try other things.
