I recently visited this place and had a great experience. I asked the bartender for something that wasn't sweet. She inquired about my preferences, and I mentioned I liked margaritas and old fashioneds. She suggested a drink that was exactly what I wanted - not sweet, and I was very happy with my choice. I also tried the Ruby Red Kolsch, which was a tasty grapefruit-flavored beer. We wanted something light to eat since we were hungry but had dinner plans in one hour. The bartender made a great suggestion for a light appetizer. Customer service was good and friendly. The pricing was also reasonable: we had one beer, one mixed drink, and an appetizer, and our total was just $21. read more

Went there for wings today the bartender was super rude and annoyed we walked out before ordering because she took so long. The bar also smelled bad. read more

One of my favorite places back home in Massachusetts is a little place called the Black Sheep Tavern (I know, I'm reviewing the Rusty Buffalo, bear with me). Great pizza, good wings, fun atmosphere--you know the kind of place I'm talking about, and if you don't and you're near the Rusty Buffalo, go on in and you'll see what I mean. Anyway, I was traveling with my family through the Buffalo area and we figured since we're here, we really ought to have wings for dinner, right? After reading a ton of Yelp reviews, we settled on the Rusty Buffalo. I reached out on Facebook (they were closed at that time) to ask how much lead time they needed for an order of wings, and they got right back to me. 30 minutes, so plan ahead! I phoned in the order so that it would be ready for us to pick up as soon as we got into town--they were really nice on the phone and even called me back when we got disconnected. I ordered four chicken finger dinners and 40 wings--I was about to order extra fries, but the lady on the phone stopped me and told me the dinners each came with easily enough fries for two people. Not many places will undersell a customer like that, and I really appreciated it, since traveling long distance with leftovers can be a pain. I walked in to pick up the order, and it was like I was back home again. Great atmosphere, friendly people, good music, and the food smelled amazing. We got it back to our hotel, checked in, unloaded, and sat down to eat. Everything was still piping hot. I strongly recommend the Honey Sriracha--it's addictive. It was my first time trying Chiavetta's sauce, too, and it was also excellent. Their house Buffalo sauce was some of the best I've had anywhere. However, the Cajun dry rub was everyone's favorite, hands down. Their wings were all crispy and delicious, even the ones that had been sauced heavily. I wouldn't hesitate to go there again anytime I'm passing through. read more

Smells horrible. Staff and clientele are not warm or friendly. My draft beer or the floor next to me smelled like vomit. Left the full beer on the bar and never looked back read more

Checked out menu before going. Sounded great! Ah, No! Had nothing I really wanted. Drinks were great! And inexpensive! Not a dinner or lunch spot at all! Great for happy hour or drinks! Good, ok snacks items read more

If you are local they are friendly to you. If you stop in while in town for a drink, literally the most unfriendly establishment. They clearly don't need anyone's business. read more

Fair drink prices, good food and great wait staff. If you are looking for a place to hunker down for a game or UFC fight I'd recommend this place. They have TV's EVERYWHERE! They have food specials daily and gotta say the wings are pretty good. We got hot and Cajun and were pleased. read more

Can't say enough about this little plaza bar. I've lived down street for the last 7 years. Already tons of fun memories here. It is my default bar, strong first choice for wings, even had a bday party here. It may be a typical run of the mill neighborhood sports bar, but it has good space, comfortable layout, TVs everywhere, reasonable drink prices, decent selection, seemingly well kept, and always pretty good service. The real secret ace-in-the-hole here? The food. Everything that comes out of that kitchen is f***ing dynamite. It's a super small menu of mostly just bar food, but just wow. Such quality. It really makes me not want to eat any other bar food. I think their wings easily deserve a "Top 5" spot for Buffalo-area wings. Says right on the menu, please allow at least 30 mins for wings so we can cook them properly. It's the only place where I don't have to say extra crispy, thank you for that. I've probably ate here 50 times now and never once had a bad food experience, always perfect. I'll never stop, can't stop! read more

This is a decent place to go. Happy hour, food specials, decent sized place. The bathroom had hot water and soap, which is important to me when I am reviewing places. I went on a Wednesday for their wing special, buy a single order get a single order free. They were pretty good, Ive had better, but I've also had worse. I wouldn't hesitate to go back. Bartenders were very nice. A lot of TVs to watch sports on. I actually watched the Ronda Rousey fight here when that happened. Got right in and found a place to watch it, and was easily viewable. read more

Haven't been in but got takeout tonight and it was pretty tasty. We've seen this place every time we pick up Chinese takeout and it always looks to be hopping. We're not bar types but love bar type food. I ordered the grilled bbq chicken sandwich with Gouda, bacon, onion petals, tomato and lettuce. It was really tasty. I've always wanted to find a grilled chicken sandwich that was actually good and craveable. Cheese bacon bbq and fried onions can do a lot for a naked chicken breast yo. The bun was grilled. The chicken had a nice grilled flavor with a tasty bbq hint and was not dry. The sandwich came with tator tots that were actually seasoned and crispy. Win. They did a great job packing for takeout too. The tomato and lettuce were separate from the cheesy bacon chicken side and nothing was soggy when I assembled this monster sandwich. The boyfriend had beef on weck. The beef came in a separate container so his sandwich wasn't soggy either. He said, "Schwabls it ain't. But it's good." He also had wings and enjoyed them as well. read more

We came here to watch some college hoops. We arrived in time for a BOGO on wings...win. They switched the tv near us to watch the game...win. I had 20 wings....hot and medium. I guess the adage is true, if you can't make wings in Buffalo, N.Y. you won't make it in Buffalo. These were very good wings. Are they the best I've had in Buffalo? No. But they are better than the ones I get at home. The guys are with also got the wings...no complaints. Our serve was great ... attentive but not hovering. Pretty decent crowd. Yes try this place out. They also serve burgers and from what I've seen going to other tables not to shabby. Enjoy your time in buffalo and try this place out. read more

As a Buffalo native and west Seneca native for majority of my life and only being 23 yrs old I can for sure say that rusty Buffalo is one of the best bars in west Seneca and with the new addition of "Asian Ben" taking over the kitchen the food is amazing and affordable and the drinks and specials they have through out the week are also pretty damn awesome, atmosphere is great would highly recommend read more

One of my favorite bars in Buffalo! It's located in a plaza with a bowling alley, planned parenthood, and a pizza shop. What more could a girl need? The bartenders are always super nice, and accommodating. They have a great beer selection, and have a lot of local choices. The TVs are great, they have pool, darts, basketball, and a juke box. Lots to do if you're bored while enjoying a delicious cocktail. What many don't realize... their food is legit!!! They have a great bar menu, and taco Tuesday! Some of the best pub food I've ever had, and the service is impeccable. I was shocked that good service, great drinks, and amazing food could all be in one place! It's awesome there! read more

In town on business and had a few lay days so went bar hopping. Why this place isn't at least 4 stars baffles me. I met Amber the bartender Sunday and had a great time. Good cheap cocktails and great conversation. Forward to today. It's a rainy Tuesday in Buffalo so I went back because I heard the wings were on point. I met Julie who was behind the bar. She was awesome. I had no idea about certain Buffalo food and she filled me in and recommended stuff I would like. I had the wings and they were great. I travel all around the country and world for that matter in search of the perfect dive bar. This is top 20 for me. I rarely leave reviews but this was a must. I'm in town through the weekend and will be bringing my crew here again. I def hope to see Julie and Amber again. They have a dart league on Tuesdays so I'm pretty sure Julie is a dart hustler. I didn't come clean to her that I was a professional dart guy at one point in my life but maybe she can try to hustle me this weekend read more

Had a delightful Derby Day afternoon at the Rusty Buffalo. The manager Joe was very accommodating. Its a bar, bar food, a Korean flair to some of the dishes thanks to the cook who also served as the waiter (good job). A good place to stop if you are in the area. Some drink specials, lots of TVs and just some fun for a dreary (not their faulty) Buffalo afternoon. read more

Here with friends. Have an open tab... I've waited at least 30 min dor the female bartender who walked by me numerous times. Twice. I think Stacey? Get your shit together. Hot mess. You looked like a fool. read more

Innovative beer selections. Super nice staff. Bartender ( female) was very attentive. Music NOT too loud. Very comfortable. I will be back read more

Stopped at the Rusty Buffalo for lunch. Heard a lot of great reviews about it and had to check it out for myself. Atmosphere is cool and trendy. Tried the Stuffed Pepper Burger. One of the best burgers I have ever eaten! Met the chef Ben Ordal. Awesome food coming out of the kitchen! Well worth the stop and will definitely be back! read more

First time here. Bloody Mary is disgusting. Go to the 189 Public House or North Star Tavern to sample and learn how to make a good Bloody Mary. Chicken wings are over cooked and dry. Go to the Bar Bill to see how wings are done. Very disappointed. read more

Horrible, awful, and rude are the words to describe my brief experience at Rusty Buffalo Pub. My fiancé and I were in town from Charlotte, NC visiting family in Buffalo, NY and were invited to watch a UFC event at this bar as they were hosting such. My fiancé approached the door, spoke with the bouncer, handed over her ID and HE BEGAN TEARING HER DRIVERS LICENSE DOWN THE MIDDLE. I literally mean he grabbed it, shined a flashlight over it, and began peeling off not only the top cover but also the DMV reflective top of it. He then began demanding to my fiancé her ID is fake and that we were not welcome here. Now mind you we were in group of 6 with not only her ID, but also mine being from out of state. I then told him to stop tearing her ID and explained that we are from Charlotte. I also explained we are visiting, presented my out of state ID (which he accepted no problem), and that I also am a Police Officer. I even showed to him my Law Enforcement credentials, which he then demanded my fiancé leave and get another states ID. I then quit trying to reason with him and requested to speak with a manager....I was then denied that request because in his short words, "No, I don't need to." Needless to say i walked away and called the on duty manager, Amber. Amber was pleasant and apologized for the door mans action. Needless to say as a guy who grew up in Buffalo, I'll never go back here, all my friends who live in Buffalo will never go back, and I will be taking my business elsewhere. I would rate this place more then one star, but unfortunately I was never given a chance to even set foot past the front door. Life moves on and so does my business. - Written by Katrina's fiancé, Kasey read more

This bar needs to hire more help and get their act together. TWICE now, my husband and I have walked in and pretty much left. 15-20 minute wait before the bartender even glances in your direction. He was overwhelmed and working alone both times we went in. No way are we waiting that long for a beer when the bar wasn't even THAT crowded. Totally ridiculous. I wish John Tapper would walk in here and give it to the owners straight. You've now lost my business twice in recent past. It's a shame too, because we live around the corner and would love a bar to just walk to and patronize. Oh well. I'm giving it 2 stars because their wings and roast beef are very good (the couple times we ordered and picked up, the food was good and hot). The real problem is not enough bar help. On a Saturday night at 9:30, one bartender (happened both times) is unacceptable. No more tries, Rusty. Do better. read more

Awesome place for Wings and football. I stopped in and was pleasantly surprised with southern tier pumking on draft and a nice selection of craft beers! Good times. read more

This place seems to draw, demographically, a lot of low-end trashy people; Other than that, though, the food is excellent as are the portions. If you can ignore the occasional idiot cackling like a hyena with epilepsy, this place is worth the trip for the great bar food. read more

Stopped in here for a drink a few times over the summer and was very impressed with the service and the numerous bar specials they have. Today I stopped in at 3:45PM and noticed a sign posted above the bar that advertised Bud Light for $3 a bottle. So, we ordered 2 Bud Lights and were charged $7. I then asked the male bartender why we we charged more than the price listed. He looked at the posted price and said that he charged $3.50 each; which is the right price. I'm not sure what games are being played here with drink prices. But there should be some honesty and consistency if you expect any return customers. read more

This is one of my favorite place in town!! Service, food, and prices are great. Not to mention the bartender Ben is by far one of the cutest and most kind hearted person in West Seneca (according to my wife) read more

Absolutely terrible service!! Got there about 6 pm didn't get my food until about 7, while the people I was with got them a half an hour while ordering. Our waitress, ( didn't even catch her name) screwed up 3 of our orders, and one group didn't even get their wings! Harley was absolutely amazing saving the day. The cook was also very accommodating. But the waitress tonight was just I horrible. Will not be back because of her. read more
