Bathroom was also pretty dirty as well.

Upon arriving, the hostess told us that the outdoor reservation actually means nothing and its first come first serve for seating. So, that wasn't great. As always, the space was great. The rooftop bar was fantastic - great weather and a live DJ made it a really fun place to hang out on a Friday night. The bar upstairs didn't have as good of a cocktail menu as inside, which was okay! We ordered our food directly at the bar. Black Smoke used to have a delicious BBQ inspired menu. They have recently updated their menu, and I wasn't impressed. We ordered the Mac and cheese croquettes, the steak flatbread, and the chips and dip. The Mac and cheese balls were good but they were very heavily seasoned with Italian seasoning - it was a little overpowering. I had heard great things about the steak flatbread - steak, goat cheese, caramelized onions, and fresh spring greens. The flatbread arrived and was cut into these little triangles and was stacked on top of eachother and the spring greens seemed like they were cooked on the pizza instead of sprinkled on after. This made the flatbread taste kind of swampy and completely negated the delicious onion and flat cheese combo going on. If you got a bite without the spring greens it was tasty. The chips and dip were the one thing I had no issues with. The chips were thick and homemade and the dip was creamy, oniony, and delicious! Overall, the bartenders were amazing, the drinks were good, and the vibes were top tier. I just won't be back for dinner any time soon.

The fries alone are almost $6. They are good, but woosh! This unfortunately will keep me from making return visits. This being said, they do offer a point system that eventually rewards you. The burgers are smash burger style and the patties melt with the cheese to create a really nice texture and flavor. Inside is clean and fresh and there are a couple small tables outside you can sit at. They also offer milkshakes and refills on drinks. Quality and food are good. Worth a stop? You decide.

A bit of a drive from "mainland" Buffalo, but definitely worth it…read more We have a group of five guys (no relation to the burger joint) who like to try out a different restaurant once a month. Last Friday, we ended up at Josif's. After a short wait at the bar, we were seated and our server, Grace, quickly took our drink orders. The menus had a wide variety of appetizers and entrees. We started with the mussels, stuffed peppers, and Bang Bang shrimp. All were very good. I felt guilty because I lobbied hard for the mussels, only to find that the shrimp were amazing and scarfed down as many as I could without looking like a glutton. All of the apps disappeared quickly and we ordered our mains. I had the tomahawk pork chop, others ordered salmon, a fish fry, beef tips, etc. Everyone loved their meals and I was lucky enough to be full enough from the apps that I took some of the chop home. (It was not a pretty picture as Ifeeedily hunkered over the computer the next day gnawing on the chop bone.) The simplicity of the decor inside belies the quality of the food. The staff is friendly and professional. Definitely worth a ride down Route 62 to Collins.

The dining room is huge, with a couple of big screens and a fireplace. We ordered an app and entrees from the specials menu. The food was fantastic (especially the mashed potatoes!)

The amount of avocado wasn't worth it, but I loved that you could easily customize on the ordering station to add onion straws, remove the sauce, etc. Service was friendly tho all they have to do is hand you food due to the ordering system. I love the new service center. It's beautiful and even has an outdoor seating section and standing tables for those who want a break from sitting.

We were the only ones in the room so it was great to be as loud as we wanted without disturbing anyone. They have a large parking lot but it can be easy to miss since it's by one of the roundabout's. I had the Beef on Weck wrap. Asked our waitress about it since it's been a while since I was there. She said it was one of the newer items and is very popular. The beef is wrapped in a flour tortilla with provolone, creamy horseradish, salt & caraway seeds & finished in a panini press. It comes with chips and a pickle but I upgraded to fries. My choices were straight cut, waffle or sweet potato so I opted for waffle fries. I would definitely order it again. Everyone enjoyed their food, too busy talking to take pics but some of their options were the beer cheddar soup, corned beef quesadilla, burger, chicken sandwich, roast beef on white bread with mashed potatoes & gravy. Their rye bread is baked in-house and you can purchase it just like one of my friends did.

We were extremely disappointed with our recent dinner at Hamburg Brewing Company. We had a party of…read moreeight, and from start to finish, the service was very poor. When our entrées arrived, only four of the eight meals were brought to the table. We had to remind our server that the remaining meals were missing. About 10 minutes later, only three more meals arrived, leaving one person still without dinner. Once again, we had to ask for the final meal to be brought out. No one at the table should have to eat at different times because of such poor coordination. The food itself was also underwhelming. The steak fajitas were especially disappointing--they consisted of a few somewhat tough pieces of steak with no peppers or onions, which are basic ingredients for fajitas. The steak hoagie was similarly sparse, containing mostly shaved steak with very few vegetables. To make matters worse, the fries served with the meals were cold. Our appetizer was also mishandled. The charcuterie board arrived with salami, cream cheese, and cheese, but no bread or crackers. We had to ask for those to be brought out. We also had to request small plates because none were provided. Finally, throughout the meal, dirty dishes--including our appetizer plates--were never cleared from the table, leaving us surrounded by stacks of dishes until we were finished. Overall, this was a very disappointing dining experience. Between the disorganized service, multiple forgotten items, cold food, and lack of attention to basic hospitality, we expected much better. Unfortunately, we won't be rushing back.
