We stopped in Buffalo on our way to Boston and made a beeline to Hayes Seafood House. A local…read moreinstitution, Hayes has been serving up fresh seafood prepared in a wide range of presentations since 1877. Hayes is nothing fancy; the star here is the seafood. Counter service and popularity requires a bit of a wait but that is necessary to decide what to order from the bountiful catch on offer. We started with raw oysters and clams casino. Freshly shucked oysters are a thing of beauty and Hayes did not disappoint. The Clams Casino are a house specialty which we highly recommend for the experience of a unique dish. We both ordered the broiled haddock and scallops for our entrees and could not have been happier. Perfectly seasoned and generous portions ensured a fabulous dinner. Hayes is a Buffalo standard for seafood for a reason - superb selection and masterfully crafted seafood makes for a great experience.

The absolute best lunch my mother-in-law and I have had in a VERY long time. This is by far the most incredible and freshest seafood in the area. We got there shortly after opening so it was not busy, but by noon, the line was out the door. Very clean restaurant. You can tell they pay attention to the place. Great decor, friendly staff. Plenty of seating room. The menu was a bit overwhelming. I ended up getting the blackened haddock platter (with red potatoes and coleslaw) and mom got the lake perch with the same sides. We both were in love at our first bite. The haddock was perfectly seasoned and I had no doubts it was cooked well. Lately I feel some places I have been served fish that isn't done. No doubts here. Coleslaw was saucy and flavorful. Potatoes were delicious and the meal also came with a roll. The perch meal was exactly what my mother in law was hoping for. She hadn't had it in a while and it was a heaping portion. She said it "barely" had much taste, which was a plus for her. The batter was clean, and you can tell fresh oil was in the fryer. While the prices are a little high for a normal lunch, they were worth every penny. We will definitely be back.

Staff was attentive and kept our drinks full. I had a little bit of everything and it was all to my liking. They had crab legs presented in 3 ways, cold, steamed, and in a Cajun style boil. If you love crab then this is the place to enjoy it until your hearts content. Soft drinks and juice are included in price as is all the sushi and sashimi.

First I would like to say that I am a big fan of all-you-can-eat buffets. With all the higher food…read moreprices and smaller portions, I feel there is more value to buffets. However, the quality, variety and taste of the food determines if I will be a repeat customer. Although there was a good variety of foods, the fact that everything tasted bland. Each new item I tried l hoped would have more flavor than the previous item but unfortunately they were consistent but not in a good way. The only item I enjoyed was the round sugar coated donut balls, the sugar was sweet. Service was good but their whole job was to bring beverages and clear plates which our server did very well. Try it once and decide for your self but I recommend the lunch buffet so you spend less money while trying it out.

We ordered oysters, which were good, stuffed mushrooms, which were average at best and you got 3 for $18.95 so basically one mushroom was $6.00. We also ordered The Dip. It took forever to come out. When it finally did the fries were cold and the prime rib was dry and extremely over cooked. They also did not include the dipping sauce. When I let the server know she questioned me and said she thought that's how it was done. I let her know I've had it before and asked if they could remake it. Half hour later another sandwich and fries came out the exact same way. I would've eaten but it was honestly inedible. When I let the sever know, she did say the kitchen was having a bad day and didn't know what was going on back there. We then ordered a pizza. This was also terrible. We did eat it because it was getting late and didn't want to wait for more bad food. We then got the bill. $350 later for an absolutely horrible dining and service experience. I did let the manager know. She was very unpleasant. Didn't seem to care. She did offer to send me home with a dessert, which I declined. I was not in need of more horrible food. I will NEVER return to this restaurant again. There are too many good restaurants around to waste your money here.

It was served on a toasted roll. Sides offered were macaroni salad, coleslaw, or soup. They were out of my 1st choice, coleslaw, so I got the soup. I also ordered french fried. The sandwich (a childhood favorite) was great & the fries were crispy & seasoned properly. The soup was ok, not bad just nothing to rave about. Service was fast and friendly. I'd like to go back to try some of their seafood. 2026-44

I think everyone was watching or attending the Buffalo Bills game that night, so it wasn't too crowded. Upscale (almost casino-like?) vibes! We were seated right away, and our server (Eric I think his name was) was awesome. We decided on the Dinner for Two Dining Package. We got the house salads to start, and split the Delmonico Steak and Rack of Lamb. Both were fantastic, although I wish there was a little more of the pistachio crust on the rack of lamb. The steak was cooked to perfection, and the demi glaze paired great with it. And we were too full to grab something off the dessert menu! Will definitely be back to celebrate another special occasion!
