I've been here twice - once in July with a group of 6, and again in October with my husband. Both times, I had a great experience! Consistent Service: Both times I made a reservation and our table was ready as soon as we arrived. Each staff member we interacted with was friendly and professional. Atmosphere: I sat in the dining room both times, and recently in the area that's closest to the street. The setting is modern but the tables are close together. The noise level is kinda loud due to the acoustics in the space. Food: During my most recent visit, we ordered a half dozen oysters (special) and arancini (4, golf ball sized) to share as appetizers. For dinner I ordered the ravioli which were very flavorful, but thinly stuffed. However that allowed me to save room for dessert! The brown butter cake was out of this world delicious! Parking: they have two parking lots, and there's also street parking nearby. Overall I'd highly recommend for a special occasion or nice dinner. read more

This is my 5th visit to Prescotts. My hat goes off to the Chef. I have, as well as my adult children, tried several items on the menu and you do not disappoint. Unfortunately, I will not return. My bill did not correlate with my plate and glass of wine. read more

I haven't been to Prescott's in quite some time. I dined last night with a friend, and our server, Leah, was so hopeful and patient. She let us enjoy our dinner at a leisurely pace and made fantastic recommendations. We started with the focaccia and both had steaks for dinner with a shared side of macaroni and cheese. Everything was fantastic, and the covered patio created the perfect ambiance. read more

Prescott's Provisions - Filet and macaroni and cheese - New American Near Me - Tonawanda, New York

My husband and I grabbed a drink at the bar before dinner and the bartender convinced us to try their barrel aged rye old fashioned. Wow! It was the best I had ever had! Notes of vanilla and citrus, creamy, smooth. We ordered focaccia, oysters, and octopus for starters and shared the 9 ounce filet, cooked medium rare, and the brussel sprouts. With the a small exception of the sprouts being a little on the greasier side, we loved everything! Like loved!!! We grabbed a French press to finish the meal and a brown butter pistachio cake to go (which we warmed up at home as suggested by our amazing waitress and it was very good). If you can get a reservation here, do it! I have often tried without success (because I am more spontaneous with dinner reservations), but got lucky for a Saturday night with a 7:45pm reservation. So glad we did! read more

First time here for all four of us last week and it was excellent. Plenty of parking and a nice view overlooking the canal. A nice patio but we sat inside as the weather was threatening. An upscale sleek restaurant that doesn't have a pretentious feel. We arrived early to have a drink at the bar. My gin martini came in a beautiful glass that looked like it came from grandmas china cabinet. The best part was the grilled wild ramp garnish. I knew with that, that the attention to detail matters here. After we sat, our server asked if we order everything together. Not as a rush but, as everything is prepared to order, to guarantee proper timing. My steak tartare was delicious and the chicharron was crisp and a nice accompaniment. The ceviche was a little different from what I have seen but, delicious. The beet salad was also pretty. My salmon was perfectly cooked and the mussel chowder was well flavored. The halibut also had a nice fresh taste and the corn ravioli was gorgeous. We tried all three desserts available. The opera cake was beautiful, actually, all the food was, and it's nice to see the work into the presentations. The warm pistachio cake with the blueberry compote was my favorite! All the food was of high quality. I don't recall the servers name but, one of the best I've had. She knew the menu well and was happy to talk about it. She mentioned she's been there since opening. The French press coffee was robust but I was wishing for some Disaronno on the side. Everyone we dealt with was welcoming and helpful and one person actually walked me to the restroom when I asked directions. It's probably one of the pricier dinners I've had but, when everyone is pleasant and the food is both delicious and beautiful, I don't mind. read more

This place is amazing: well-prepared delicious food, beautiful presentation, and attentive service. My friend and I sampled a number of small plates and loved all of them. The cocktails are especially wonderful! read more

Did the owners of this place transport it Upstate from Bushwick?! Wow. Hosted a business dinner here recently. This is truly the best meal I've ever had in Western New York. Service: -Our waitress knew the menu backwards. No detail was missed Environment: -Cool little spot. You wouldn't know until you sit. I initially thought it was just a BBQ restaurant Food. -They have a wood-fired oven and pit here. The dishes are creative and portions are big. Order as much of a variety as you can. Our entire party was thrilled - we got steaks, the pork, fish, and most appetizers on the menu. All 5/5 Don't miss Prescott's Provisions!!! read more

Went here last night for our 2 year anniversary dinner after hearing so many good things about this place. It did not disappoint! We were running about 25 minutes late from our reservation after hitting some traffic, and they were still able to accommodate us even though it was packed in there. Very nice! We were seated on their enclosed outdoor patio and it was so cute. Makes me want to come back over the summer when its nice out and open-aired out there. It felt inviting and casual yet upscale at the same time. Our waiter was nice and very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered dirty martini's to start, along with the fried artichoke appetizer and caviar "tater tots". All were fantastic! We both then ordered 2 different steaks - the NY strip steak special and the hangar steak on the menu. Melt in your mouth and cooked to perfection. So so good. We sadly didn't have enough room for dessert! My only complaint was having a tough time finding parking. Street parking and a couple parking lots and still not enough room for everyone wanting to dine there. Will not deter us from coming back though. Can't wait for next meal here! read more

This is one of the best overall dining experiences we've had all year! We started with the focaccia bread as well as the arancini balls for appetizers. Would definitely recommend getting both if deciding between the two. The bread was seriously some of the best we've ever had- so fresh and warm and great flavor. Arancini balls were fantastic. My fiancé got the wagyu special which was delicious. I got the dry aged salmon and loved it. Our waitress was very attentive and had great knowledge of the menu. The restaurant was nicely decorated for the holidays. Was not a long wait for our food. Will absolutely be back! read more

If you've never been to Prescott's Provisions in the City of Tonawanda, it's a must try. The best way to describe it is upscale dining in a relaxed setting. It's not stuffy or pretentious. It's just really great food and drink that you can either dress up for, or roll up in a polo and golf shorts. We have been here a half dozen times and the one thing we can say is that it's consistent as the day is long. When I think consistent, I think of restaurants like Hutch's and Left Bank. Add Prescott's to that list. Our server was Nicole and she was absolutely phenomenal! Because we've been there before, we asked for some recommendations on wine and specials and she was spot on. As per her reco, we started with the Hiramasa, also known as Yellowtail amberjack. It was served over a small bed of rice with avocado and cucumber. It was very light and fresh, drizzled with ponzu. We also had to get my favorite, the Crispy Artichokes served with calabrian chili aioli. The crunch of the batter and softness of the artichoke paired with the creamy dip is just heaven! For our entree selection, they had a 25 ounce Tomahawk on special, but I opted for the 16 ounce Prime NY Strip with béarnaise, while Jill went with the Chestnut Ravioli with brown butter and truffle. Of course we had to add the Potato Purée and Brussels Sprouts. The potato was smooth and creamy while the sprouts were flavorful with char and crunch, but just a little of the salty side. As we were leaving, we had an opportunity to wish the couple behind us a happy 44th anniversary. They were super cute! If you're looking for a date night, special occasion or just a great meal, check out Prescott's! read more

Food and wine list was great! More of a high end restaurant for special occasions, but, very good!!

This place is amazing. The menu is diverse with something for everyone. The regular menu is full of delicious dishes, and the specials are even more unique. The service was wonderful. The waitress talk to us like family and advised us on her favorite dishes. The view of the river is lovely with the boats trolling up and down. I highly recommend this place for an elegant special meal. read more

I haven't updated my review in a long time and we've been SO MANY more times since so I just have to say how amazing 10000/10 this spot is. I don't know how people in Buffalo haven't been here yet and I want everyone to try it out. The best most delicious meals we've had. We love sitting inside or at a high top in the bar for the best ambience, patio is also amazing! The staff is always awesome and helpful with suggestions. We are excited every single time we come here whether there are new dishes or not. Do not skip on this spot and do not skip on the brown butter cake dessert ever. read more

The place is crazy noisy. We couldn't have a conversation at our table. For some reason, we arrived 8 minutes early and they wouldn't seat us. The menu seems overpriced to me. I really expected our experience to be entirely different. We were unhappy all the way around. read more

Unique flavor combinations that always surprise me with how they meld together so well. Great place for a celebration meal, date night...or when you just want some guaranteed great food! Service is always on point. Has a romantic vibe but a little loud because of dining room acoustics, depending on what you are looking for. The focaccia is a must...it's my favorite part of the meal! read more

There was not a single dish that I tried that was mid. I tried a ton of appetizers and entrees because I had a family of six and we go all out on trying stuff. Even the desserts were phenomenal. I cannot put into words how thoughtful the dishes were and how delicious they turned out to be. Absolutely u have to go, the whole experience was amazing and the food was of course incredible read more

Had an absolutely fabulous meal on the patio here while celebrating a friend's birthday on our yearly trip to the area. The group ordered a bunch of appetizers for the table, and my husband and I split a Wagyu steak special, then we all split the three desserts that were on offer that night. There was not a stinker in the bunch. The beets and crispy artichoke appetizers were delicious and ginormous. Honestly I could have ordered one of those just for me and made it an entree, and it still would have been a little too big. The burrata had some delicious caramelized onions on them. Our steak was perfectly cooked and super tender, it came with perfectly cooked asparagus and creamy mashed potatoes. I must confess I did scoop the mushrooms off the top though. I wish I'd had room to finish the steak because it was perfection. Of the three desserts (their signature cake, a pb/chocolate bomb, and a strawberry rhubarb tart) my favorite was the tart, followed by the signature cake. They were all good though. I also enjoyed a mocktail version of their passionfruit cocktail since I was driving. While this isn't a restaurant you go to when you're on a budget I think the prices were surprisingly reasonable for the volume of food and the quality. A lot of upscale places like this would charge the same for a 3 bite appetizer vs. something that is highly sharable. Service was excellent, ambiance was great, will definitely plan to return next year. read more

Easily one of my favorite spots to visit when I'm in Buffalo! Prescott Provisions is an absolute gem in Tonawanda that never disappoints. Nicole provided great service throughout my meal, making me feel right at home. I started off with oysters, which are always fresh and paired perfectly with the bell pepper mignonette. The yellowtail crudo was another great choice - light and flavorful! For the main course, I had the Bigoli pasta, featuring perfectly cooked lobster and a sauce that was an amazing combo of tart with a hint of spice. The stinging nettle pasta was solid too - light with just the right hint of citrus. Lastly, I couldn't resist the Wagyu bavette special. Cooked medium rare and topped with truffles, it was absolutely divine. Highly recommend and I look forward to my next visit!! read more

My wife and I had dinner at Prescott's recently after reading and hearing great reviews. We enjoyed the ambiance, the cocktails and appetizer were great, however we were very disappointed with the steak my wife ordered. She requested it be cooked to medium, and it came out nearly blue rare. Our server sent it back and when it returned it was still between rare and medium rare. The sides were also ice cold. For an upscale dining experience(and price), you would expect the temperature of a steak to be correct. We would be willing to give them another shot in the future but there are plenty of other places on our list to try. read more

Decided to take my parents out for a nice dinner, so I chose PP. I have never gone but heard great reviews. We made reservations and were seated right away. The atmosphere was wonderfull, but the metal chairs on concrete made it seem like we were in a cafateria setting, not to mention it was loud with people talking and chairs scooting on the floor. The food was platted well and tasted good. Except for out mashed potatoes were cold and my father french fries were cold. Our veggies were also cold. I was a bit disappointed for the cost of $320.00. I would have let our server know but he only stopped by after we were done eating to see if we wanted anything else and brought the check. At that point I did not see the need. We will not be going back. read more

This was my second time at Prescott's Provisions. I think it probably is the best restaurant in Buffalo. The food is incredible and the service unmatched. I don't think my water ever went below half way full! Some very nitpicky things for me about this meal: I didn't love the mignonette with the oysters - I think I just prefer a more vinegary flavor, and the purée with the salmon was seasoned with some kind of curry, which just wasn't my preference. These aren't even real criticisms, just my own taste preferences. The steak was delicious, the lobster mezzaluna terrific, and the dessert unmatched. It's also a nice casual vibe, despite being an upscale menu. If you have people visiting and want to impress or just want to enjoy a nice meal for a special occasion, this is the place. read more

Me and my husband came here for the second time for our anniversary last night and can't say enough good things. We recently went to dinner at a very similar type dining establishment and wanted to compare the two and they were neck at neck by the end, so this will remain one of our favorite restaurants in Buffalo. This time around we opted to go for four apps and a pizza as well as dessert. We tried the tuna crudo, the caviar tater tots (again), the burrata with tomatoes, the prosciutto and melon, and the black truffle pizza. Everything was delicious but the real standouts were the burrata which was the creamiest I've ever had and the prosciutto and melon. The prosciutto was the best I've ever had and was aged for 24 months. It was perfectly paired with the melon and some kind of creamy cheese and nut filling. The tuna was also really delicious. I will say after my second try of the caviar tots that the tot really overwhelms the actual caviar so you can't enjoy the caviar taste. This app is more for someone who wants to get the experience of trying caviar but doesn't actually know if they like it yet. Since I have tried caviar many times since our first time trying it here, I can confidently say it's better on its own or served with a simple potato chip. The tater tot really just overwhelms the taste of the caviar so you don't actually get to taste it. They do give you a generous portion of caviar though so I just scraped it off and ate it on its own. We tried the dolce de leche dessert with pecan filling and a scoop of vanilla gelato and the vanilla gelato was really delightful as was the dolce. The pecan filling was surprisingly the perfect touch. Our waiter was great. We did opt to sit on the patio which got a little bit chilly after the sun went down, but they made an effort to close the patio off to trap in the heat which I appreciated. It'll be really nice once the heaters are going on the patio. We have yet to sit inside, but maybe on our next trip here we'll opt for a table inside! read more

My husband and myself went to dinner with friends of ours to Prescott Provisions and we had a superb time! The food is absolutely outstanding! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu! I ordered the salmon which was cooked perfectly and probably the best salmon I've ever had as far as flavor goes! My husband ordered the hanger steak which was so tender and juicy it was delicious! The service was quick, and efficient and the meals arrived in a timely fashion! We sat at a cozy table in the enclosed patio under a heater and it was the perfect location for a cold Buffalo winters night! I will definitely return to prescotts for another nice dinner in the future! read more

Amazing! Arrived a bit late and the specials (Wagyu and Lobster Roll) were already sold out but everything else was still great. Started with the artichokes and the arancini. Artichokes were very unique, the sauce was great. Arancini were excellent. Ordered the Prime Striploin for the entree and was not disappointed - the french onion-like sauce was lovely. A couple cocktails and a nice seat on the patio tied it all together. read more

The ambience at this restaurant was exactly what we wanted. It was a lovely anniversary meal for my wife and I. The food was good, but we were a little concerned about the pace that it came out. We ordered three little plates and a big plate. All three little plates came out at the same time. Two were hot one was cold, so we had a choice of either eating the hot while it's hot and letting the cold warm up or eating the cold while it was cold and letting the hot cool off. we solved our problem by eating too fast. Just kidding, we ate the hot stuff and let the cool stuff warm up slightly. The people at the restaurant are the reason for the four stars. More specifically the waiter. The lovely lady that sat us and the absolutely wonderful young lady that bust our table and kept our waterfall. we're both fantastic. However, we were not impressed by the waiter. When we asked about the little plates he got defensive. We just had a generally bad vibe from him. read more

Oops, forgot to write a review when we came on a whim the other week. This place has been on my list to try for a while, and I'm sure we'll be back. They have a small seasonal menu of small plates, large plates, and cocktails. My husband had a trentino Manhattan. It was very good, and one of the smoother Manhattans I've had. I tried the Barbados Redux, a rum based drink with a pronounced ginger flavor. We shared the St. Louis Ribs and Provision burger. The ribs were thick and juicy. The burger has a bacon onion jam. The bacon wasn't noticeable and the onions were big long strips rather than the smaller onions we expected. I had my half plain, but the burger itself tasted amazing without anything else. My husband said it was one of the best burgers he's ever had. It's an elegant restaurant, but service was friendly and not snooty. Busier than expected for a Tuesday night but we were seated right away. The only downside is the patio (where we did not eat) overlooks the parking lot instead of the canal. read more

Very unprofessional service and for the price you're paying you can get much better food across the canal.

Giving two stars only because Google allows businesses to easily filter out or dispute one-star reviews--and we want management to see this. This establishment used to be good, but tonight's experience for my husband's 58th birthday was an absolute disaster. I am completely devastated by how we were treated. I ordered the Wagyu bavette steak. It was incredibly fatty, cloyingly sweet, and drowned in a heavy demiglace that totally masked the summer truffles. I could only take two bites. The mac and cheese was equally inedible, and the remaining dishes were mediocre at best. When the manager initially did a quick table check right as the food landed, I said things were fine because I hadn't actually tasted it yet. After realizing the steak was inedible, our waiter, Connor, vanished while bussers repeatedly tried to clear our full plates. When Connor finally returned, he became bizarrely aggressive and confrontational. He actually accused me of lying, claiming he had sent the manager over initially because he noticed I looked unhappy. It is entirely inappropriate and unprofessional for a server to judge a guest's disposition or make assumptions based on their facial expressions. I had not even tasted the food yet; my demeanor was due to a difficult, personal family situation that he had no insight into. For a server to aggressively interrogate a guest based on their own blind assumptions is appalling and deeply unsettling. To top it off, the manager refused to do a single thing to remedy the situation, deferring instead to the chef who essentially insisted he was in total control of the kitchen and that the food was fine. Paying premium prices to be interrogated and served poor food is unacceptable. This birthday was completely ruined. There are far better dining options in Tonawanda and Western New York that actually value their customers. This business will never receive my patronage again, nor will it receive any business from my extensive network of friends and family. read more

If you're looking for a dining experience with stunning views and delicious food, this restaurant by the water is a must-visit. The ambiance is perfect for a relaxing meal, with glass windows that lookout onto the Erie Canal. The menu offers a variety of options whether it's pasta, seafood pizza or steak each dish beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The service is attentive and friendly, making sure you're well taken care of throughout your meal. We started off the evening with sharing homemade buttery focaccia and a side of butter and waygu shortrib arancini balls with a light vodka sauce on top both excellent. For dinner we ordered the gnocchetti, strip loin, hanger steak and the salmon. Each steak was cooked perfectly with fantastic potato accompaniments and onion rings and mushrooms. The homemade pasta was top notch cooked with a mixture of beef and pork ragu both rich and creamy. The salmon was cooked perfectly alongside a smooth carrot puree which sounds weird but it was different and worked well with the dill salsa and pistachios as a great compliment. We rounded out the night with 2 delicious desserts. One lemon tart and a chocolate peanut butter bomb.The cocktails accompanying this meal were very on point. If you're looking for something light the Dear Fitzgerald hits all those notes. More into bourbon? The Siciliano is almost a manhattan but has orange notes making it like an old fashioned. Highly recommended! read more

This was my first time there, my wife has been several times. It was a busy restaurant with plenty of staff. Our waiter was knowledgeable and attentive. We ordered the scallops, ribs and octopus small plates. The octopus lacked flavor, the ribs were great and the scallops were ok. For entrees we ordered the bigoli pasta with lobster and the salmon. Salmon was undercooked, nothing to write home about. It did have a nice seared skin though. The bigoli was ok, but again nothing blew me away. For a $300 meal I was less than impressed with the lack of flavor - missing that "wow" factor I was hoping for. Just my two cents. read more

First two times here was fabulous. Pork chop the second time, was not cooked the same but it was pretty good. Went twice more and ordering the steak. Extremely " chewy " knowing the second time was no coincidence. Also referred a friend to go. Her response about the steak was also the same as my experience. Also to add her burger was undercooked, just like the pork chop was my second time. 3star Entree: Hit or miss. 4star : Artichokes small plate or appetizer (deep fried) on point Beet feta (appetizer ) on point as well read more

Came here for a special occasion dinner date a few months back (my 3rd visit here). They have some permanent menu items and then an ever changing list of other creations. Started with popover, tartare and arancini balls. Tartare was my fave. The popovers don't have much cheesy flavour to them. For main had the shrimp pasta and mushroom pizza, both very good. Their desserts are really what keep me coming back. The banana caramel is so rich and satisfying. The chocolate mousse with sorbet had a lighter more refreshing feel. Another mention not on here that I've had before is their octopus (amazing, not pictured here as it was a different visit). Service is always excellent and it's got a fancy vibe but easily casual ambiance also. read more
