Rather than one cake, we opted to do a "dessert room" where guests could pick their favorite treats. When I walked into that dessert room, it was heavenly! The photos attached show how beautiful the desserts looked, but they also smelled and tasted wonderful. Our guests were raving about them the whole night! Not only were the treats gorgeous and delicious, but Mo and her team were amazing to work with. They took time to learn about what we wanted and were extremely patient and understanding with us when we had to reschedule our event several times due to COVID. They even accommodated a few guests we had with dietary restrictions (Gluten-free, dairy-free) with adorable, individual boxes. They truly made our dreams come true and we're so grateful!

Buffalo Catering Co did an amazing job catering my wedding this past weekend at the Botanical…read moreGardens. The staff were so attentive to myself and my groom; making sure we had a drink before we walked down the aisle, making sure they knew our drink preferences for the night, and several times seeking us out wherever we were with a readymade drink (mixed and just water) to make sure we were lubricated and hydrated. They also made us 6-8 covered plates of a sampling of all the catered foods and set it at our table for when we finally got to sit down AND they brought us and the wedding party hors d'oeuvres immediately after the ceremony while we were getting ready for photos. I had purchased one of those 7lb cans of luxardo cherries to go with cocktails for the night and of course got cherry juice on my fluffy white dress and one of the bartenders deftly and quickly saved my dress with some club soda too! Everything was beautiful and tasty and there were several compliments on the food. We already loved Joe's Deli and Buffalo Catering is even lovelier. Highly recommend you let them cater your wedding and suggest you ignore the review on here by a wedding attendee about running out of food. Running out of food is a planning mistake and not the fault of the caterer if they didn't know about the correct numbers or the family didn't take their advice and instead bought less that was suggested! Our food amounts were seemingly perfect as far as I can tell (as advised by the caterer based on our attendee numbers) and we did a grazing menu: a great variety of delicious slider sandwiches, a bruschetta bar, two orders of charcuterie, two orders of cheeses, vegetable and fruit plates, and four types of hors d'oeuvres with enough for each person to have at least 2 of each. Open bar package with beer, wine and cocktails as well. Again, can't say enough, they did a stupendous job and I felt so cared for and taken care of. PS: I don't have any photos of the sandwiches yet but I'm sure they exist. They were DELICIOUS!

I love Wegmans and this location is no different…read more With it being in the city, it's evident that both the parking lot and store are smaller than suburban locations but they do their best to maximize the space. The parking spots are narrower than suburban locations, but there is a lot of parking. The store felt slightly more cramped than my go-to location, even shopping with a small cart was tight to navigate through the produce section and the aisles were busy with shoppers and staff restocking. It's also a busy location, even on a Friday afternoon. But the store was clean and well organized, and they had a lot of registers open and staffed by courteous cashiers. The quality and selection of their food is fantastic, better than most grocery stores in the area.

This is the Wegmans closest to my mom's house, so whenever I'm back in Buffalo, this is my Wegmans…read moreeven though I used to work at the Alberta Drive location. Naturally, I still find myself frequenting this Wegmans whenever I'm back in Buffalo. The Amherst Street Wegmans has a massive parking lot, though you would never know it during the peak hours. Between how popular this store already is and the addition of the Wegmans Wine & Spirits shop in the same plaza, it's usually pretty packed. You might not snag a spot close to the entrance but you'll find a spot. Might I suggest that patience is basically required, as with all things Wegmans. Once inside, I'm almost always overwhelmed (in the best way) by how much there is. Prepared foods, deli counter, meat and seafood, bakery, flowers, produce, frozen foods. You name it, Wegmans has it and they probably have a Wegmans branded version, too. I love browsing the craft beer section and, more recently, the growing selection of non-alcoholic options (Thank you, Wegmans!). Honestly, I can't complain. Yes, Wegmans can feel overwhelming, but now that I don't actually work there anymore, I've grown to appreciate the variety, freshness, quality, and pricing. The things I would do for Wegmans to come to the West Coast... until then, I'll keep savoring every visit to Weggies while I'm back home.

I went to Romeo's Bakery on Hertel for the first time around 7pm, and by now I had already had…read moredinner so I came out for dessert. I ordered 2 of their Italian wedding cookies (which was very good), but I had a tough time deciding on which cakes. After some questions/answer session, I finally decided on some flaky custard pastry and a cup of coffee, along with the cookies. I paid for my ordered and even though we didn't require table service, I still tipped the kid behind the counter. Afterwards, we went outside with our order since the weather was nice this evening. After sitting down, I had cut into my dessert, and started tasting the custard which was very good. Then I picked up a piece of the pasty, and the pastry was too soft to be flaky and at the same time, too hard to chew. Essentially, the pastry was stale. Immediately, I said to my friend, "I don't like this dessert it's very hard to chew". She said she comes here all the time and it's not supposed to be like that, so she tasted it and then suggested I go in and ask to exchange it for a different dessert. I took my dessert in, almost completely whole and the kid behind the counter asked if anything was wrong with it. I told him that since this is my first time having it, I'm not sure how it's SUPPOSED to taste so honestly, I wasn't able to pinpoint exactly what was wrong with it but I did ask if I could exchange it for another dessert? He tells me, well since there's nothing wrong with it, he couldn't do an even exchange, so I'd have to buy a new dessert. I told him, forget it and he can throw out my dessert. I left it on the counter for him to trash, and walked out. So now I'm very upset. Not only did you sell me this STALE piece of pastry, but now you're unwilling to fix the problem. Furthermore, if a customer is willing to trash the entire dessert, almost whole, don't you THINK there could possibly be something wrong with it? It seems like this very simple common sense thought process never took place with this kid. My friend was waiting for me outside, and she was adamant that there was something wrong with the dessert so she went inside to talk to them again. She tells them that she comes here all the time, and that there is something wrong with the dessert. This time, they admitted that maybe the dessert sat in the fridge for too long and then they gave her an exchange dessert! Why did it take two complaints for you to correct the problem? I was so upset with their lack of common sense customer service, I will NEVER come back here for anything ever again. Based on the reviews, they may be known for their desserts, but my dessert was stale, and their service was lacking. There are plenty of other businesses on Hertel that can give me much better service, and UN-STALE pastries.

It was an OK experience and I'll go back to try some other items. I did think it was a bit on the pricey side as the bowl of soup that serves one is $20, before adding the uncharge for meat.

This time, I paid extra for goat meat and it seems I received scraps because there was only meat on ONE of these pieces- otherwise it was all fat/bone. I notice that when I order goat pepper stew I get good pieces of goat. With egusi they hide all the bones underneath soup, so they can get away with giving out less desirable pieces. Aside from that, the flavor is lovely, portion size is good for the price, and customer service wasn't phenomenal but they were friendly and smiling! Restaurant was clean and they've upgraded their tables which brings up the ambiance a little. I will go back--just maybe for a different dish. Peace (:
