Double Wings (20 Pieces)
John G.

Great service, ice cold beers, great wings, tvs everywhere with sports on....whats not to love??? Seriously these wings are pretty up there with the known greats. Definitely recommend this place if you are in the Orchard Park area!

Just had a beer, but a lovely u shaped bar and good looking menu. We'll be back for the stuffed peppers.

I thought this was an absolute great little hidden gem of a Tavern. Had the French onion soup, and the Cajun chicken tortellini. The soup was perfectly balanced not too much salt. Very good flavor. The Cajun chicken tortellini was fabulous. Somehow the chicken was so tender and moist. Typically in a cream sauce it's overcooked and dry and chewy. This was absolutely moist and delicious. Sausage was just right. Very very balanced dish. Really enjoyed it. Jeanne was my waitress and she was spot on with drinks and advice on the menu. Very helpful very pleasant. Now the tavern itself is very welcoming but understand it is a tavern. I was here on a Saturday night for dinner and it was quite loud because the bar is right next to the tables. But that's to be expected at a tavern. If I wanted quiet, I'd go to church.

New ownership has made this place even better. The place was packed last night with people escaping the feeling of cabin fever from the blizzard. Beer was ICE cold and came in a frozen glass. Wings were perfect! Plump, almost crispy exterior. Spicy medium sauce with a juicy wing on the inside. And the Potters burger is amazing too. Thick perfectly cooked patty with a stuffed banana pepper on top and a side of stuffed pepper sup on that side that you can dunk or smother you burger in. Then you finish the soup like a shot to complete your meal.

Depends on what you're looking for. The beer and the wings were delicious. My waitress made an excellent recommendation for Murphy's Style. If you're looking for "ales" as advertised you will likely be disappointed as those consisted of nothing more than name brands. Even a local brew was unable to be found. My waitress though excellent when ordering down the rest of my meal playing with her phone while my water glass sat empty. All in all a cute little place inside a former house right on the main road with outstanding food.

Ordered fish fries last night and they were pretty disappointing. All of the sides were pretty bland and tiny portions. The fish itself was pretty good but nothing special. Only a 30 minute wait for takeout around 7pm though which was nice because it's hard to get a takeout fish fry on a Friday night during lent in South Buffalo without calling several places and waiting an hour and a half.

Steak sandwich

Called for a reservation on a Saturday evening and was seated on the patio with no wait. Ordered a draft Guinness and a vodka lemonade which were served with a short wait, the patios were busy in this phase 2 opening time. Ordered a steak sandwich and a BLT which were served promptly and were good. The steak sandwich featured an uncut steak on a roll with cheese and spinach. Really enjoyed the steak sandwich. The prices were very reasonable and the staff friendly and attentive, will be sure to return.

Perfectly cooked medium

Stopped here around 5pm on a Friday evening. The bar was packed, but seating was available ... by the time we left most tables were taken. It was pretty loud inside with the after work crowd, but we didn't mind it since it helped drown out the "outdoor voices" of our kids. They have a very tiny parking lot, but spots are available on the side street. We ordered the Five Alarm Burger (special of the day) and the Potters Burger. Both were cooked to a perfect medium and the buns complimented the patties - not overly "bready" but held up to the juiciness of the burgers and saucy toppings. The spicy queso sauce (on Five Alarm) had a nice zing to it and the Potters Burger is served with a large condiment cup of stuffed banana pepper soup to dip it in. You'll want to ask for a spoon to finish it up, it's that good. We also had a 1/2 breaded fish fry for $9. It was a decent size for being a half-order and with the sides, it made for a filling meal. We asked to 2 potato choices instead of slaw. It ended up being a $3 upcharge, which is a bit pricey; however, the roasted reds and sweet fries were both delicious. The sweet fries are waffle cut and lightly shaken in a cinnamon honey butter. The mac salad didn't look like anything special, but it was flavorful. I remember they used to have a non-mayo based mac salad that was fantastic ... would love for them to bring it back. It was a nice surprise to find a kids menu. $6 with fries, drink, and ice cream treat. The kids decided on the chicken fingers. They were hand breaded in Panko crumbs. Not our favorite, as the breading takes on the flavor of the oil that it is fried in. And at this particular visit, the fingers were overcooked and burnt at some of the edges. We did forget about the ice cream treat at the end, but no worries because the kids were stuffed. As for the service, the waitress was friendly and made sure we had plenty of napkins (necessity with kids and when I eat burgers). She did get busy when the dinner crowd started to roll in, so it was understandable when it took her awhile to check back. Overall this is a good spot for burgers and if you're often intrigued by specials of the day. They seem to have something for everyone - vegetarian specials, meat and potato dishes, seafood entrees, and traditional handheld options, as well as a couple unique ones.

I know for lunch you don't want long wait times. Our server was so great. She was very nice, attentive and friendly. Been here and the Lewiston location and always had good food. Still the same. Our food was delicious. Very nice portion sizes as well. We started off with the burnt ends.. YUM. The smoke flavor definitely came through and it came with some pickleld veggies and cucumbers, it was fresh and tasty. I went with the crab and corn chowder with the bourbon jam burger and fries. Also at the table was a basket of fried shrimp, and the chicken waffles. First let me say their seasoned fries are absolutely amazing. Fried perfect and when they call them seasoned, that they are in a great way! My crab and corn chowder was tasty. I could used bit more crab but that didn't take away from it tasting good. My burger was cooked as I liked. I wish the bacon jam to blue cheese ratio were a bit better. I had way more blue cheese than bacon jam so it was a bit over powering to where I couldn't even taste the bacon jam..but again the flavor and cook was great. I didn't taste the other food items but they looked great and who did eat them said they were good

I love short ribs and theirs is tender and flavorful. My husband ordered clams with chorizo and pasta and loved it, stating it wasn't a "heavy" dish. Drink choices were good. Place was clean, parking in back. We would return!

After a long drive to have brunch somewhere on Elmwood, just to find the doors locked, I ventured…read moreover here to have lunch and it did not disappoint! First off, I was greeted and found staff friendly and efficient! You have plenty of options for seating .. dining area, front bar, back bar, even an outdoor patio bar. Although it is dive bar-esque, it was nice and clean (let's be honest .. some dives have a stench and stickiness that can definitely ruin your appetite, no matter how much you may love them). They have a set up for bands to play, as one was playing while I was there for their 2 year anniversary (congrats!). What was nice is although I could hear the band (it was playing in the back and I was up front), it wasn't over whelming me. I have eaten places where, no matter where you sit, it's extremely loud, and I appreciated that you had a choice here. Now onto the food: The food should have been doomed to fail; my tastebuds were prepared to eat sweet, buttery, syrupy French toast with a mocktail at brunch elsewhere. But wasn't hyped about the menu because of this (which is not dog and pony's fault .. I had to work and didn't have time to research where else brunch was available). I settled on the umami smashburger by a suggestion of my waitress. Now once again, could have been doomed to fail as I'm not a French fry person and my favorite cheeseburger is one I make on my own. BUT WOW their food blew me away and made me forget all about my brunch let-down. The French fries were fantastic and had a great seasoning on them! The smashburger was great to the last bite .. and I was NOT expecting to finish it as it was a really nice portion (I ate lunch now 10 hours ago and didn't need to eat again it was so filling!) but it was so dang gone good I sure finished it! Smoked cheddar .. chimichuri aioli ... kimchi bacon jam .. oh ya that bacon jam was EVERYTHING!! Thank you to the staff at Dog and Pony for making my long drive worth while!

Came mid week after kindergarten graduation. We were the only ones sitting outside. Sat at the fire…read morepit so the kids & some adults could play cornhole. Was windy so they put the fire pit on, after 15 we asked to turn it off because it was too hot. We had to go up to the bar & order, flights are not served outside. We had apps....pretzel with spicy mustard, queso & pub sauce, boom boom shrimp, fried pickles with jalapeño ranch dipping sauce, & lobster eggrolls with jalapeño ranch dipping sauce. The apps were all real good but so filling we barely touched our meal. I ordered off the summer menu, Yellowstone campfire plate. It came with beef brisket, bbq chicken, baked beans, Mac& cheese and French fries. What I nibbled on was really good but unfortunately in all the confusion never took the leftovers. Everyone else mostly got salads and the summer quesadillas. We just ordered too much food for lunch.

Food: 0/10 Alright this is the third time I've come to this location. I'm trying to be fair but the bad food is consistent. For instance tonight I got the "campfire" plate which was fries, Mac and cheese, chicken, and brisket. Fries? Too hot to eat first. Mac and cheese? Literally colder than room temp and DRY! No cheese...like cold dry noodles? The brisket was slimy and small portion sized, the chicken was fine I guess. Everything else was so gross though by the time I got to the chicken I didn't care. I've come every time with my family of 4, and all 3 experiences were the same. I wish the food was anything but what it is because I'd love to come back here. I'll never recommend it and I'm actually just going to give away my $100 gift card to anyone who wants to dare to eat here.
