    New Brunswick Oysters (so good, we got 12)
    Stacey H.

    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!

    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!

    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!

    One of the evenings specials. I think it was a Cordon Bleu with truffles.

    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.

    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.

    Pistachio cake w peach gelato - sooooo good
    Melissa L.

    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!

    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!!

    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.

    Is it best to make a reservation?

    Long answer: I suppose it depends on the day/time. I can't remember which day we went, sometime during restaurant week which was very busy so I'm glad we did! Short answer:…

They accepted a reservation for a party of 12, they welcomed us warmly, with empathy for the circumstances. They served us quickly and efficiently.

I highly recommend and we will definitely be sure to go back there again!!

It was not busy and we didn't have to wait for a table which is a plus. I ordered smoked turkey, with salad and sweet potato fries and a pg13 which was ginger beer, mint and I added a shot of vodka. When our food came out I had to question what was going on with the sweet potato fries because they had a thick coating and looked beer battered, not at all indicated on the menu. I asked the server, Kelsey W., and she paused and said yea I don't know for sure but if you can't have gluten I wouldn't eat them. I was annoyed at the situation and just took them off my plate but I understand this can happen. The server seemed annoyed and goes on to blame me and says I should have told her. Now will say I did have to go through the salad ingredients and pick most of them out, she didn't ask me about allergies either. And it's not common to add a beer batter coating to sweet potato fries without indicating it in the menu. The menu should be updated asap for other guests. Any other server would apologize for the situation and ask how they can make it better and not blame for a customer for a misunderstanding. After that I realized there was an extra sauce on the tray, I asked her to check with the kitchen to see what was in it, is it safe for me to eat? She came back 15 minutes later and said she will check and have an answer soon. It was not busy, this was not acceptable. Again clearly not showing any help for your guest with a food issue. This showed me she had zero concern or care about this or trying to smooth it over. Finally, towards the end of the meal I realized my water was leaking, had thought it was condensation as it was hot out. My glass, water cup had a huge crack in it. You would have hoped that someone would have seen it before serving it to someone. Clearly a safety issue. I hope I didn't ingest glass. I handed it back to our server and told her this glass needed to be tossed in the trash. Her response was another blank look, she didn't really care and just gave me another shallow I'm sorry. The rest of my meal was tasty and it was a large portion. Everyone else at my table had nice looking food and was happy with it. I will personally not come back here. District 37- it wouldn't hurt to update your menu and add what is gluten safe and indicate what kind of coating is on your sweet potato fries because a lot of people who choose these have special dietary needs. You should also train your staff to help bring up allergy issues with your guests and have more empathy if an issue arises. If this is something a server isn't able to work on they might consider an alternate employment opportunity.

The drinks? Delightfully affordable. The playlist was on point, mixing nostalgia with beats that make you forget you're not at a dance club. And yes, the pool table was open, which is a miracle in itself; it's like finding a unicorn in a bar! Now, let's talk about the floor--it's like a magic carpet ride that convinces you you're tipsy, even if you're just sipping on a soda. I swear, I thought I was swaying like I was at a music festival! The ladies bathroom is so adorably decorated that you might just forget what you came in for. Who knew a restroom could distract you from your drink? I left wondering if I should start redecorating my own bathroom instead of my living room. One tiny quirk: the dartboard could use some new darts. Sharing is caring, but when you're trying to unleash your inner sharpshooter, having to pass around a few sad, old darts isn't the vibe. More darts, please! Overall, if you're looking for a laid-back spot with good vibes, solid tunes, and a bathroom that deserves a feature in a home decor magazine, 200 Main is your place! Just watch your step; the floor is sneakier than a Halloween prankster!
