    this chicken sandwich beats Dave's and chick filet A by a long shot!
    Annie C.

    Hands down the BEST chicken and waffles in town right here! I was excited, and knew what I wanted but my peeps who tagged along took forever and a day to decide *insert hangry emoji*. While waiting for our order we were asked if we wanted to try the mac & cheese and it was sooo good (seriously, not because I was h-u-n-g-r-y!) it will be the first thing I order the next time I swing by B'cuz there will be a few more times with other friends and coworkers :) side note: not a lot of seating area inside like other yelpers stated but plenty of picnic tables outside... or you can always fine and dine inside your car (exactly what we did cuz it's hella humid out outside when we were here. PS: my peeps ordered chicken tenders and the chicken sandwich - everyone enjoyed what they ate, and raved about the seasoning on the chicken *sigh* - - 100% drooling now thinking bout how good it was!

    Finally got to try their chicken and waffles! Tried the BOGO 3 chicken tenders with a waffle and bottle of water. The owner was very friendly and excited to talk about his food. Gave us a sample of the smoked Gouda Mac and cheese. We enjoyed the meal out on the picnic tables and I especially liked it with Red Hot on the chicken. Two of us split one order and it's very filling! Good stuff! Now we want to try the loaded fries!

    Let me tell you about my lunch!! So its black restaurant week so of course I chose to support. But how could I choose a place that is currently serving lunch and will deliver ? ( I'm at work and don't wanna lose my good parking spot,lol) I decided to check out Crenshaw's Chicken and Waffles!! Now I know the spot is known mostly for their namesake, but I am here to tell you that you need to give the fish dinner a try !! The food arrived still hot courtesy of UberEats and actually arrived at the given time!! The fish was giant, crispy, and flavored to the T!! Now I consider myself a mac and cheese queen, so when I saw there were spiral noodles, I was skeptical!! However I was quite pleased !! I could tell that they made a cheese sauce because there cheese throughout the dish. I was especially happy to get some of the cheesy crust on top! The green were decent with pieces of potatoes in them, but unfortunately, I didn't try the chicken salad because I was unsure if it had mayo in it. Lastly, the meal also came with a beverage, which was nice. Overall, I truly enjoyed this meal !! I will definitely be ordering this and other meals more often from this establishment. I hope they eventually expand into full service restaurant in the future!!

    I got the Crenshaw chicken sandwich, the flavor of the chicken was amazing! I loveddd the fresh lettuce tomato and onions on the sandwich. I just wish they let the cheese melt but other than that it was delicious. The service was great, I ordered on Uber eats and they listened to all the requests in the notes. I'd love to try something else in the menu.

    Cinnabon waffle with tenders

    Finally got a chance to check out this black-owned restaurant over at the Chandler Street market and it did not disappoint. I got the Cinnabon waffle with chicken tenders, The decadent indulgence of the waffle, really with something different and tasted well balancedwith the well-seasoned chicken tenders, which were a good size. The meal came with a drink of choice and I just got an apple juice to really lean in to the breakfast vibe of this meal despite it being for dinner, lol There were several other flavor options for the waffle available and definitely will return to try others in the future. Also, the owner was so personable and even apologized for the food not being piping hot once I got there to pick it up as this is a takeout only establishment currently and I got there about 25 minutes later than the schedule pick up time. He prides himself on the food being made fresh to order but clearly the fault was on me.

    Mac and cheese and sweet potatoes

    First experience exceeded my expectations. Today not so much! Fish was overcooked , very chewy, Mac and cheese tasted awful too much burnt crust , tasted Smokey and my sweet potatoes had a few pieces of Mac in it. SMH,

    We were picking up some cookies and we decided to grab brunch here. When we first walked in, service was 100% great. Staff was welcoming and knowledgeable. We also had a sample of the smoked Gouda Mac n cheese. Next time we are in the area we definitely try more of their food. We got the chicken and waffles and it was amazing. The fried chicken was juicy and the waffles great. This spot is more of a take out spot with a couple of seats. There are always picnic tables outside if you can't wait to eat the food.

    It was my first visit to Crenshaw's it was a little hard to find, but I found it and very glad I did, I got the cinnamon waffle with five wings, it came with blue cheese, hot sauce if you needed it, but the wings were seasoned to perfection, no need to cover the flavor, the cinnamon butter on the waffle was delicious, didn't really need the syrup, smelled so good, had to open and taste in Wegmans parking lot before I went in, I couldn't make it home, the service was excellent, the recommendation was on the money for me!! It's take out , but I did see a few picnic benches, it was a thunder storm the day I went, I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did, everything is cooked to order, so if you don't want to wait 20 minutes for your wings , you should probably order ahead

    Chicken sandwich
    Bianca S.

    I tried Crenshaw's after seeing many positive reviews . I ordered online as this is the only way to order right now. We got a few different things to try including chicken wings country fried, seafppd salad, chicken sandwich and red velvet waffle. When I arrived to pick the food up it wasn't ready, but the staff informed me and thanked me for my patience. Inside there were a couple of tables but outside the building there was more space to eat if you wanted to. The best thing was the waffle, it was delicious and tasted like moist cake. The wings cpuld have been cooked longer,but taste was good. The chicken sandwich was just ok in my opinion. Seafood salad was ok, but nothing to brag about. Prices were a little high in my opinion, but I guess that's to be expected these days. I would go back for the waffle but can't say that I would go out of my way for the other things. Maybe I just came on a busy day and need to try it again. Overall a nice place, pleasant staff food was ok.

    My favorite, cookies and cream waffle with glaze and their delicious fried chicken.
    Ashley M.

    Wow. First time trying today! Their cookies and cream waffle = to die for! Red velvet waffle = to die extra for. Their glaze on their waffles = had me dead, so freaking good. They gave us samples of their mac and cheese = I literally passed away and came back to life it was so delicious I thought I was dreaming. When you walk in they treat you like family, they are so sweet. Quick service, delicious food, yeah this is my new spot !! Nice to meet you Greg and your kind staff

    Red velvet waffle and chicken wings...
    Tanisha B.

    First the young man and young lady at the front were so pleasant, respectful, kind and courteous, the kind of service that makes it ok to spend my money with them. NOOOWW.. let's talk about this food. My daughter and I had the red velvet waffle with the wings. The waffle was big and covered in butter and glaze(?). I'm not sure what it was but it was delicious and I really didn't need the syrup. The wings were seasoned to perfection and so crispy and the inside was moist and juicy(I'm not sure how they pulled off this perfect combo of crispy and juicy). Then to top it off they gave us each a bottle of Poland Spring water, the Hot sauce packets were Frank's red hot(if you're from Buffalo you already know...this is the only hot sauce), the blue cheese was a nice 2ouce pre packaged cup. Overall this place gets a 10/10...I only wish they had a nice seating area because I almost crashed driving, eating and doing a little dance with every bite

    A warm and soulful restaurant. Once we entered it truly felt like we were with family. Our…read morewaitress, Milan was so friendly and made great suggestions about what to order. I ordered the Jamaican tea drink-so dressing and the Kingsley Street Fried Chicken dinner. The chicken was perfectly fried to perfection, the macaroni and cheese was cheesey, the yams were definitely what it means to be candied and the cornbread was warm with enough sweetness without being too sweet. I really enjoyed the ambience and hospitality here. I cannot convey how delicious this food is!!! This is in my top three restaurants to eat at now.

    Soul food has arrived to North Buffalo in a big way! Get the word out because I need them to stay!…read moreRestaurant is in the heart of North Buffalo, located on Hertel about two blocks from Parkside. Cute vibe inside. They do have a bar setup, but didn't appear it's used for alcohol. I was greeted as soon as I opened the door and was walking through. Being my first time, I did order a few didn't dishes, sides and desserts to try. There was NOT a bad dish. All the food was amazing. Great portions, tasty flavors and everything truly was cooked to perfection. I have given up talking about prices because let's be honest where can you go for cheap anymore. BUT I have to mention I got the Kinsley street fried chicken dinner, it comes with four prices chicken (half chicken, breast,leg,wing,and thigh) and two sides for 22.99, I felt this was actually a great price point and so worth it. Our next dish was the JP fish sandwhich and fries, again, the sandwhich was huge, the fish was seasoned and cooked to perfection! Fries were yummy. Next up was the TPs hot honey chicken sandwhich. Now I am over the hot honey chicken sandwhich as it's been done to death, but I still always feel the need to try eveyones hahaha, and glad I did another grand slam sandwhich! For the sides, I tried the Mac and cheese, pinto beans, collard greens and coleslaw. If you follow my reviews I am a Mac and cheese snob, don't think I order many that I liked, well thank you Heavens because the Mac and cheese was DELICIOUS!!! The Coleslaw was also top notch. I don't eat collard greens or pinto beans but my family told me they were good. They did not have desserts on the menu but I seen some on the counter, sooooo I order a slice of caramel cake, slice of sour cream cake and peach cobbler. Fat kid heaven they all were so good. Literally the best caramel cake since my mother in law! I felt like I just ate at my husband's family reunion. I had to go in and order, then I left ran to dash and came back in about 25 mins and my food was ready when I got back. So service was pretty fast. My only thing wish you could order on line first, parking is not the best in that area. Also Google has address as 1641 Hertel but it actually is 1633, not a big deal because same area but just a heads up.

    I'm always on the lookout, keeping my ear to the ground, for great pizza places in Buffalo…read more Although sometimes, I just want to try some place new. I had heard good things about Naked City Pizza, so I decided to take a break from my usual spots and give them a try and overall, I am very pleased! I called around 4:45pm on a Saturday and a gentleman took my order. He was courteous and friendly and said my order would be ready in 25-30 minutes. I arrived about 30 minutes later, easily finding a parking spot in their large parking lot, which is a mixture of pavement and dirt/gravel. Walking inside the shop, it's similar to most Buffalo pizza shops where it's relatively small and really about take-out, not for dining in. There were a few young guys working the counter and ovens, they were able to get me in and out quickly. From the limited time I was inside, the workers were friendly enough, they seemed to get along well. For dinner, I ordered a Quarter Sheet (6 slices) Steak and Three Cheese pizza but the gentleman who took my order over the phone put my order in as a Half Sheet (12 slices). They realized the mistake too late and gave me the Half Sheet for the Quarter Sheet price! I really do appreciate that, it's great customer service. I have half a pizza leftover for a quick dinner now! Naked City Pizza nails the traditional Buffalo-style with a doughier undercarriage and nice crispy, chewy crust. The dough was airy but it didn't seem as "heavy" as many other pizza places around Buffalo, but maybe I was just REALLY hungry. haha For their steak pizza, it seems like they use thicker pieces of steak, which was great, definitely felt more substantial. Most steak pizzas come topped with banana, hot, or sweet (bell/green) peppers, but Naked City uses roasted red peppers, which are sweet and have a more distinct flavor and softer texture - I was impressed, this paired VERY well with the other components! Along with them, there's also onions on top. The three cheeses used are cheddar, mozzarella, and parmesan, which of course are delicious. In addition to the roasted sweet peppers, the other component that I was surprised by was the white garlic sauce as the base. Steak pizzas around Buffalo vary from using a "hoagie oil/sauce" to just a huge variety of cheeses, no base sauce of any kind. I tend to stay away from white sauce on pizza as it's usually associated with garlic (I don't want my breath to be too... fragrant haha), but this wasn't too garlic-y, I didn't feel like I was "wearing it". I enjoyed the added creaminess the white sauce added to this pie. After six slices, I stopped myself and put the other half in the freezer. The six slices I had were delicious and filled me up nicely - The squares were cut nicely and they were plenty filling with tons of meat and cheese. I have a feeling these will reheat in the oven nicely. Looking at the prices, I was impressed too with how affordable Naked City Pizza is! All-in-all, I'm glad I gave Naked City Pizza a chance and had a great experience! The staff are friendly enough and quick, it's easy to get in and out quickly, and the pizza is traditional Buffalo-style so it's on the heartier end while being affordable. I look forward to ordering and trying a red sauce pizza from Naked City Pizza to see how sweet their sauce is.

    Loved it. Pizza was awesome, crust was really good, everything was really fresh. Totally recommend…read moretrying the pizza if you haven't. Not really any I side seating, but outside tables if weather cooperates. And a decent size shared parking lot next door. A little pricey but with the dough
