The agnoloti wasnt your normal small hats but rather more interesting ravioli. But who cares it's shape--it was balanced, housemade pasta that made me very happy. The steak had that good crust and it wasnt your average steak house steak. It was as good but with different flavors. A great order.

I went to Coco for my birthday dinner and was pleasantly surprised! Very aesthetically pleasing…read morerestaurant, nicely decorated. Service was very friendly as well. I ordered the Rosemary Frites, which were a delicious appetizer. I had the maple salmon salad as my meal, and it was amazing! The chèvre was so fresh, the greens were great, and the salmon, wow! A delicious meal that I got two meals out of because I took half of it home, as it's a pretty large portion. Originally, I was given the wrong order that I couldn't have due to dietary restrictions, but the waitress was very kind and gave me the correct one, as well as taking it off of my bill. I really appreciated that! We got macarons as dessert and they were super yummy as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at Coco, and it will be in my rotation of "special occasion" local restaurants going forwards!

Cheese was hard & it just needed more texture, maybe pickles or something to give the burger some depth. The patties were not medium as ordered but well done and hard . Let's just say the dog enjoyed it. Lamb bolognese was 6/10. The pasta noodle had a weird texture and just didn't taste fresh.. I don't even want to say fresh but it just wasn't good. Overall we were looking forward to this restaurant as nothing else around town impressed us and we were left disappointed .

The Margherita focaccia was by far the worst of the night, soggy and flavorless, the focaccia was nothing like a normal one. The tuna had a nice presentation though it was quite mediocre, the rice was hard in some parts and seemed quite old, the tuna itself was fine but the dish as a whole was maybe on par with sushi you'd get at a wegmans. As my entrée I got the carrot papardella, everything seemed overcooked, hardly any lobster and what little was happened to be tough and rather flavorless, of course it was the same with the shrimp and crab. The pasta was overcooked and stuck to itself and the sauce was quite sweet and far too hot, twenty minutes into the meal and it was still steaming, continuing to turn the dish into mush. The meal was for three people and came out to be $240 after tax and tip, the service was nice but considering the praise this restaurant got I'm sure it's went downhill. The highlight of the meal was the complementary bread at the start.

**** We visited…read moreBella Ciao at the Embassy Suites in Buffalo around 7:00 p.m. as a party of five, including two children with special needs. We were in town attending a large national conference for families affected by their condition, and many conference attendees were also staying at the hotel. When we arrived, the restaurant appeared to be about 80% empty. Our children mentioned to the waitress that they were hungry and tired, and the first response we received was, "Do you have a reservation?" She explained that they couldn't seat us because they were expecting a large party. Instead of being seated at a regular table, we were directed to the bar area, where the bartender kindly took care of us despite the fact that our group included two minors. We stayed for over an hour, and during that time, the large party never arrived. Meanwhile, we watched other guests without reservations get seated at tables without any apparent issue. The experience left us feeling singled out and, ultimately, discriminated against. Whether that was the intention or not, it reflected a disappointing lack of empathy and inclusion--especially considering that so many families with children with disabilities were staying at the hotel for the conference. I'm giving Bella Ciao three stars because the food was decent, the portions were generous, and the bartender provided good service. Unfortunately, the way we were treated upon arrival overshadowed what could have been an enjoyable dining experience.

Most of the things you would never even heard of and the prices did not equate to the food portion size. Now I'm not somebody who's never been to a fine dining restaurant before I've dined everywhere from LA to Hong Kong. That being said, my wife and I decided to give it another shot last night. When we showed up the hostess was really nice. We were seated really quickly, but we looked at the menu and it was very limited. I had never even heard of 90% of the menu before. So I ordered some steak hache. Which turns out is just like a fatty hamburger, for 40 bucks! Not only was the hamburger undercooked, but it was super fatty and almost slimy. The fries that came with it were also waaaaaa too salty. I ended up eating about 1/10th of my meal and then eating some of my wife's tenderloin. I would honestly give this place a negative review if I could.
