    Homestyle Chocolate Chunk Cookie - crisp on the outside, gooey on the inside
    Laura G.

    I used to always go for their Mediterranean Veggie Sandwich, but now I can't stop ordering their Kids Deli Turkey Sandwich. It has a good amount of protein with the meat and cheese and I always just add veggies to it (spinach, red onion, tomato, and cuke). I love the soft bread that it is served on, but you can switch it up. There is plenty of flavor that I don't even think a dressing/spread is needed. Also, it comes with a choice of side - yogurt tube, apple, chips, or baguette. Plus, it's only $5 for a quick, satisfying meal.

    But first you need some dough

    I knew a guy that belonged to all the different sections of the Irish Rebels at the same time. He was Pan-IRA. This has nothing to do with him (although if it did, would that be The Bomb?) This is the Panera Bread way down in the Orch (as in Orchard Park Blasdell etc) and it's a pretty iffy one, an older one, but even though it's tiny, it works out, because it's not always so busy. Gets a bit cold, but stays open usually during snowstorms which is usually when I end up in Panera Bread because all my other hangouts are kaput. I'm a Panera member but I think their food is nightmarishly horrible, not just bland but awful. If you love Panera food, we can possibly friends but definitely not dining friends. Not in the sense that you can give recommendations to me, anyway. Sorry. I do appreciate their free self-service water and their free Wi-fi (which is sometimes spotty). Their caramel macchiato is good but I'm not a big fan of anything else.

    This place has really down downhill. I came here with my daughter for a quick lunch tonight & I think I'll stick to a different location. I'll start by saying the service from the register was good. She was prompt and patient while the two of us ordered. She also brought me back my keys when I left them at the register ! If it wasn't for her, this would be a 2 Star review. Now as for the line prep, there is much to be improved on. First, they did not add in the cucumbers to my salad like I requested. When I brought the salad back up, she took my salad back and dumped a topping of cukes on. No words or eye contact (to be honest I don't think they're supposed to take good back, but that doesn't bother me). What does bother me is the unappetizing lettuce I was served. Lots of brown pieces and the salad just tasted rotten. Hopefully they can made some improvements or maybe I just came at a bad time...

    A dear friend drove to Buffalo from NYC to volunteer at an event and after a long day volunteering,…read morethey were looking for a hearty meal and some good drink. Seeing as I'm a Yelp-er, they wanted me to find a spot I hadn't been to yet, even though I had eaten dinner already on my own. I had The Ridge West Seneca saved in my "Places to Try" collection so I said let's go. Overall, I cannot wait to go back and grab a meal here and try the food for myself! We arrive just before 8pm on a Saturday night to a large gravel parking lot that was pretty busy, but we still found a spot pretty easily. We walked in and the hostess was able to seat the two of us at a booth right away! Inside it was very spacious with plenty of TVs going, a bar on one side, music playing overhead. Indoor noise was elevated (it's a restaurant that has a bar, it's going to not be quiet haha) but the two of us could carry on a conversation fairly normally. Our waitress came over immediately to let us know she'd be a few minutes as there were a few other tables she was handling. Fine by us as that allowed my buddy ample time to look over the menu and figure out what he wanted. I saw the St. Patrick's Day-themed cocktail specials menu so I knew what I was ordering. Our waitress though - Absolutely wonderful! She was incredibly friendly, had great personality, and was really accommodating in splitting the check (I took care of all our drinks, my friend took care of his dinner). Our waitress did a great job checking in on us at the perfect time, we never felt pressured, rushed. I didn't order any food but my friend ordered their Steakhouse Strip off the "Large Plates" section of the menu, and boy oh boy, did that look amazing! The 12-ounce strip was cooked to a picture-perfect medium-rare with plenty of tobacco onions on top and around the plate, and served over a generous bed of mashed potatoes and asparagus, served with a small cup of their A1 aioli. After seeing that, I certainly want to come back and order food. My friend really enjoyed their meal, the plate was clean! As for me, I ordered two St. Patrick's Day -themed cocktails: "Sham Rocked Shake" and "Irish Good Bye". The "Sham Rocked Shake" was vanilla vodka, crème de menthe, cream, and chocolate syrup and curls - This was creamy, delicious, not overly minty. The "Irish Good Bye" was Three Chord bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and lemon juice with a lime wedge - There was so much flavor in this cocktail, the lemon juice added a pleasant fruity 'punch'. Looking at the prices for these cocktails, I felt they were in-line with most other places and they were made well so no complaints from me. The Ridge West Seneca really surprised me! I've driven past it a few times and wondered how good it was. From our friendly waitress and service, the delicious cocktails, to the fantastic-looking food, I am impressed. I'm looking forward to coming back soon for another night of drinks and to try some food!

    Went here for Mothers Day brunch. There were 12 of us so we sat at a long hightop table in the bar…read morearea. Have been here several times before and this was the first time seated in the bar. The bar area is not as loud as the back room but still loud. Our server was attentive and there was too much food to take any pics. We started with coffee and cocktails followed with nachos and tots. I had coffee a mule some of the appetizers followed by the fried green tomato blt. There were also 2 different pizza's a burger, waffles, stuffed French toast, vegetable frittata, chicken and waffles, sou & salads and so much more. Most of the food was good, a few said it was just ok. If I come back I would definitely sit in the bar area or outside. The parking lot is very large so I've always been able to find a space. They also had to put a deposit to hold the reservation , I'm only to assume it was because it was a holiday.

    A new location and a new look. Off The Wall Sandwich is a sparkling clean and colorful restaurant…read more With vibrant wall art, and striking lighting, the interior has an energetic vibe. This is a busy spot for classic American favorites: burgers, sandwiches and wings. From my previous experience, I knew it's worth checking the menu beforehand. For someone who is trying to make healthier choices, but not salad, this might be a good idea. I remember the last time I had the Classic Grilled Cheese Melt. This time, to avoid beef, bacon, or fried chicken, I decided to substitute a burger with grilled chicken breast for an additional $1. The Frenchie was my choice. I asked for the included Bison dip on the side and added Grilled Cremini Mushrooms for another $1. I simply couldn't find any ready-made combinations that suited my taste. All the burgers, melts and sandwiches come with your choice of fries or tater tots. We waited longer than expected for our food. The restaurant started filling up after we arrived. There were a lot of takeout orders while the dinner rush was starting. They should have a parallel system in the kitchen to keep the dining room moving at its own pace. Anyway, my sandwich was good. The chicken was perfectly grilled. The mushrooms and onions were flavorful, and the provolone cheese was melted and delicious. It's good that I asked to have the Bison dip on the side. We enjoyed the mountain of fries and onion rings (we really liked the breading on the onion rings). The Mac and Cheese was basic, but classic and very tasty. Unfortunately, our feedback on the Steak Hoagie was not so good. It wasn't as expected - a juicy, Buffalo-style, meat and cheese sub. My partner said that too much spice rub made the sandwich salty and dry. It wasn't the experience of dripping, shaved steak covered with lots of melted cheese, grilled peppers and onions. There was none of it. It was dry, smallish and disappointing. Our server Kimora took good care of us. She was smiling, and made our stay very pleasant.

    Friendly employees. Nice atmosphere. Most importantly, sandwiches were delicious!read more

    I found The Yellow Deli in Hamburg, NY on Christmas Day 2024 and I'm here again on Christmas Day…read more2025. My wife had died three months earlier and after visiting her grave at the cemetery in Hamburg I was looking for a coffee shop to relax around noon. The only place open was The Yellow Deli at 327 Buffalo Street and the second I walked in I knew I was in the right place. Being a deeply spiritual person I was intrigued by this line on the cover of their menu, "We serve the fruit of the Spirit. Why not ask?" So I did and I was beyond overwhelmed by the people who operate this amazing restaurant at cafe and by their Christian beliefs. I love their story and what they stand for. The Fresh Green Mate was to die for and it was so good I purchased a brick and use it nearly day. The Bristol Fillet with the wild Alaskan Sslmon was the best as were their soups, which I have every time I visit. It's a great restaurant, kitchen staff is superb and the people are top quality. I have and will continue to return.

    I liked both the girls and boys working here. Maybe I'm Bi-O-Mine. Or maybe there's another reason…read moreWhy-O-Mine. It's not the kind of thing I'd Deny-O-Mine. But it might make my homophobic parents Cry-O-Mine. But they'll get over it, they're not gonna Die-O-Mine. It just might end with me no longer being a Guy-O-Mine. What to get: CYO large salad w/kale What else: CYO pizza w/red sauce & fresh mozz This is the greatest salad chain in the whole world and this location is pretty friendly and gets really busy and provides healthy salads and pretty yum pizzas of the create your own variety to the whole of the southtowns and Orchard Park Community. However, I prefer both of the other locations. The Transit E. Amherst original is the standard-bearer and they make pretty big salads and are pretty friendly. The Sheridan Drive is the gold star location where they make salads twice as big, and everybody there is my best friend. Then the Orchard Park location is still playing catch-up. Both times I've come here my salad was half the size of Sheridan or smaller. Which is kind of an issue to me to be honest. Because there are not many salads that fill me up and the other two locations can both get it done. Having said that I still have to give them five stars because just the fact that you can pick as many toppings as you want, they're always fresh, always delicious and just the very concept and the price point - as hipsters would say - it's five star all the way. But if they can catch up to the awesomeness of the other two stores that would be even better. Skip the bland proteins. But then if you live in Orchard Park (much as with E Amherst), any hint of spice will probably be a bad mix with the 57 prescription pills you're on, I know how it is, and I'm deeply sorry that Pumpkin Spice Lattes are soon to be gone for another 9 months. Speaking of 9 months your daughter's preggo again. No, I know about the termination, I mean *again* again. So. Huge array of salad choices, they throw everything in a huge bowl, chop it all up, $8 or so. The more toppings, the bigger your salad. Get lots. If you have a really big salad like me, the girls (and boys) will love you. Oh wait I stopped talking about salads for a minute. Lots of good dressings too. And the walls are covered in Fox puns. You'd think I own the place. They also make surprisingly good pizza. Not a fan of this Chipotle "cooked while you wait pizza" (yes I know Chipotle doesn't make pizza stfu thx), but it's good here. I'm not biased enough to deny when something tastes amazing. These do. They make that overrated, awful Pi Craft crap (if you like Pi Craft I don't like you so please stop reading and go to someone else's review) embarrassed to exist, because they take Pi Craft's god awful concept and actually make it good. Not that PC invented the concept. It's so Brooklyn and SF. So yeah. Let's go get a microbrew. I think the reason this pizza is so yummerific is that they use good ingredients, as with the salad. Pizza size is very generous too. It's a million miles away from typical WNY greasy pizza but it can be a nice little addition to a delicious salad. Don't get me wrong. Real Buffalo pizza wins. But on the sliding scale from Franco's/Good Guys/Imperial/Bella at the high end, to Papa John's and licking the seat of a toilet (OK, nah, toilets aren't THAT bad), Pie O Mine is actually closer to Franco's than the Peyton Manning end. And who wants to be close to Peyton's end, anyway. Except maybe Edgerrin James back in the day. Now scuse me, I have to go destroy a Greens CYO Salad faster and with more reckless abandon than Biebs destroyed "Despacito." *No Israelis or Palestinians were harmed in the making of this review, despite Trump's best efforts
