    Great Beers and cocktails and the wings are really great! Chill vibe to grab a drink with friends.

    So, I wasn't a fan of their last spot in the old Dave & Busters but this place is very cool and I'm happy they moved! The space is large, they have their own parking lot on Hertel and garage doors to open when Buffalo's warm weather hits. Great employees, good drinks, fun music and the decor is modern and fun.

    Well you know when you look at the menu at home and decide what you want because it sounds so good, then you get there and they're all out!!!! Well nothing else seems to satisfy after that. I hand the turkey, apple Brie panini which was a little bland, chicken nachos were pretty good. Chocolate stout not as hefty as others but very drinkable! Service was good and the atmosphere was right. Will have to try again!

    The lovely Julia, our wonderful server.

    I visited here with my husband on a rainy Thursday evening and found a very welcoming place with friendly people. Since it was our first time here, we were very impressed with the size of the venue and the games available. They offer Cornhole, Can-Jam, and others. They even have a working bowling alley! This would be a great place to hold an event, with plenty of space and lots of available restrooms. We enjoyed the refreshing beer and tasty food that we chose. We had the smash burger and mozzarella cheese sticks. Both were very well prepared and delicious. The owner, Jeff, and our server, Julia, were both happy to talk with us and share their experiences.

    Great beers, great service, food was incredible. Happy hour was a great bang for our buck. The focaccia tower was $5 and the nachos were $10 (+$6 to add chicken)

    I stopped here yesterday with a close friend for Steel Leaf Brewing's first anniversary party. I wasn't a big fan of any of the beers that I tried. I had a full pint of their cookie stout. It wasn't as dark as I would have liked. My second drink was the blackberry orange bourbon sour and I loved it! I ordered the jalapeño pretzel. It came with jalapeno filling inside it and was deep friend. It had a nice mustard to dip it in. My friend ordered their sidewinder fries. They were squiggly, thick, and great! They came with a ketchup and two other dipping sauces, one of which was barbecue-ish and was quite good. It had I have been here two prior times as well. My first time here was with friends for drinks and light food. My second time here with about a month ago, when the brewery brought their brunch back. I remember that I liked the beer I had that day, and the mixed drink, but the portion size on the food was a little lacking. The service was interesting and good here all three time though.

    First time here! The GPS takes you to the wrong part of the mall. It's at the end next to JC Penny! The space is pretty big, there's corn hole set up in one area, and possibly a bowling alley? They have a cute little shop in the corner and their clothing feels like it might be super comfy. We were the only people in the whole place, which was very surprising to me. The server/bartender was great. Kept herself busy but was attentive at the same time. Drink selection was pretty small (only 7 beers), but it rotates. I'll be back to try more when new ones come out! Some of the previous options sounded very appealing to me. Beer reviews can be found in untappd. We came not too long after the blizzard so they didn't have their full menu, but they had the food we actually wanted anyways! Brisket short rib burger 8/10 Kim. 9/10 Kyle. Traditional burger toppings. The meat is good, Kyle wants it to be a thicker patty/more meat to taste the meat itself a little more. It was cooked really well, medium with a little pink. Chipotle mayo? Was on the burger.. Not spicy but adds more depth of flavor to the burger. Very cheesy too! Fries 2/10 Little soft. Could be cooked longer. Kinda remind me of burger kings. Loaded tater kegs 10/10 Crispy outsides, cheesy bacon potato insides. You can taste the bacon pretty well actually! The chipotle aioli dipping sauce is very good, but a little too spicy for me to eat with every single bite, but boy would I love to! (Sour cream would be nice to have on the side to dip as well).

    Springer fries! Delicious dipping sauces

    Walking through the mall and came accross this brewery! Inside the old Dave and buster location, This brewery newly opened features a unique selection of house made brews and delicious eats. We had a flight of Jalapeño wheat, honey ale, Friday haze IPA and mango lime sour. I'm not a beer person, but these beers were so full of flavor without the bitter after taste I usually get with beers. Highly recommend the jalapeño wheat! Taste and smells like a jalapeño without the spicy burn. The fries were delicious and I loved the housemade dipping sauces. This place definitely has a long way to go but the potential is there. It's a huge space where an arcade once was, once you walk through the remains of the arcade you will reach the bar. Looks like they plan on setting up bar type outdoor games like Kan Jam and corn hole. If you want to try interesting beer fusions give this place a go!

    Another visit with my son and another great time. Live music, prize wheel, new beers and a great burger. Bonus that I ran into few friends while there.

    Steel Leaf Is a relaxed place to kick back after work or when meeting with a group of friends. There is tons of space so no need to worry about a reservation or waiting for a seat. The bar itself is very large with seating on both sides. The restaurant opens on the mall in addition to the entrance from the parking lot. There is also a large outdoor patio and a large room filled with corn hole boards. I had a flight and enjoyed all the beers, especially the "secret sauce". The burger was juicy and fresh. Looking forward to coming back and bringing more people.

    A great place to catch the Bills game on the tv! The new mushroom swiss burger with shoe string fries was amazing. The ketchup and beer cheese are homemade!

    So glad me and Ryli got to stop in with our pal Linda to check out this huge new brewery in the old Dave & Busters at Eastern Hills Mall. We regrettably forgot to walk around and check out the entire place before we left but we had a great time chatting, drinking flights, and enjoying some charcuterie. The beers were absolutely delicious and we enjoyed all of them, which I was actually surprised by with this being a brand new establishment. I would have ordered a full beer if any of them but I was especially surprised at how much I enjoyed their newest brew, the jalapeno wheat. It was spicy without actually being spicy if that makes any sense lol! The peach IPA & mango lime sour were also delish. Our friend Linda tried the orange wheat which was also delish. I did think the charcuterie was overpriced at $23 but we enjoyed it nonetheless. I would like to try some more menu items next time we go. We will definitely be back for these delicious beers and to hopefully enjoy their bowling and corn hole as well! It wasn't too busy when we got there at 5:30 but I'm hoping business will pick up with them getting their name out there! I do hope they do a little something with the decor as well because you can tell it's seen better days.

    Came here for dinner the other night and I realized I had never left a review after coming here…read morebefore. So this one will make up for all the other nights too. This spot has always been a favorite of mine. It really makes the one end of Main Street in Williamsville. We started out with the pretzels and elote dip. The chips for the elote were great too and the dip was a great way to start the meal. The pretzels were soft and chewy and I really enjoyed the mustard they used. I couldn't decide on the main part of my dinner and kept going back between a pizza and a burger. Ended up going with the Nashville Hot Chicken pizza and I was very happy with the choice. The pizza had some heat but nothing too crazy. The wood fire pizza itself was cooked perfectly. Very good and I will definitely be back for more of their pizzas. I also ended up getting a piece of cheesecake to take home and it was great! Very sweet and creamy. I have never seen a rectangle piece of cheesecake before, but maybe that's the secret to why it was so good. We will definitely be back for more here. We love coming here with friends and it is a good spot for dinner or a double date.

    This review is long over due, but better late than never, right? I was in town for a few days and a…read morefew coworkers and I planned to grab dinner here one night. Why this place? Well, they were on the list of Yelp Buffalo's top places to eat in 2025, so of course we had to give them a try. The space itself is really beautiful. Nestled alongside a river with a cabinesque vibe. Stone exterior, with wood floors, exposed brick, and large fermentation tanks on the interior. It's really quite cozy. As for food, our table shared one of their tasty dips - the elote one to be exact. Elote is delicious on its own, but in dip form with pickled red onions, fire! I could eat an entire bucket of this stuff. When it came to my main course I ordered what I call the basic girl dinner, a caesar salad and fries... but here I went with the tater tots because I was told they are heavenly. My salad was a good portion size and exactly what you want when you order a caesar. As for the tots, the amount you get is insane and they were in fact, fried to a crispy perfection. They definitely hit the spot. Overall, I really enjoyed my meal and I can see why Yelpers in Buffalo rate this spot so high. If I lived nearby I would definitely be a frequent flyer.
