I went to Coco for my birthday dinner and was pleasantly surprised! Very aesthetically pleasing…read morerestaurant, nicely decorated. Service was very friendly as well. I ordered the Rosemary Frites, which were a delicious appetizer. I had the maple salmon salad as my meal, and it was amazing! The chèvre was so fresh, the greens were great, and the salmon, wow! A delicious meal that I got two meals out of because I took half of it home, as it's a pretty large portion. Originally, I was given the wrong order that I couldn't have due to dietary restrictions, but the waitress was very kind and gave me the correct one, as well as taking it off of my bill. I really appreciated that! We got macarons as dessert and they were super yummy as well. Overall, I really enjoyed my time at Coco, and it will be in my rotation of "special occasion" local restaurants going forwards!

So good! Went here for a Saturday evening birthday dinner. Parking was available right in their…read moreparking lot next to the restaurant. We had a drink at the bar and then we're seated at our table. The waiter was cordial, friendly and informative. We ordered the stuffed mushroom appetizer, the Carrot Papardella, and the Penne w/ grilled steak "au poivre". So good! The bread with the tomato sauce was fresh and the sauce had an amazing flavor. The stuffed mushroom with artichoke stuffing was very rich and flavorful. Lots of stuffing. The Carrot Papardella had large chunks of fresh seafood and great sauce. The penne with steak was very good. The marsala sauce was very rich and filling but flavorful with that sweet marsala wine sauce. Steak was tenderly cooked perfectly. The waiter brought out a great slice of complimentary birthday caramel ganache cake. Great surprise. Our water glasses were never empty, the bread was plentiful and the meal was so tasty, fresh and flavorful. This place has a good amount of seating but reservation recommended for busier times. It's a nice dining room with a bar at the entrance of the restaurant. They have daily specials and rotating dessert specials. Highly recommended and always worth the visit!!

**** We visited…read moreBella Ciao at the Embassy Suites in Buffalo around 7:00 p.m. as a party of five, including two children with special needs. We were in town attending a large national conference for families affected by their condition, and many conference attendees were also staying at the hotel. When we arrived, the restaurant appeared to be about 80% empty. Our children mentioned to the waitress that they were hungry and tired, and the first response we received was, "Do you have a reservation?" She explained that they couldn't seat us because they were expecting a large party. Instead of being seated at a regular table, we were directed to the bar area, where the bartender kindly took care of us despite the fact that our group included two minors. We stayed for over an hour, and during that time, the large party never arrived. Meanwhile, we watched other guests without reservations get seated at tables without any apparent issue. The experience left us feeling singled out and, ultimately, discriminated against. Whether that was the intention or not, it reflected a disappointing lack of empathy and inclusion--especially considering that so many families with children with disabilities were staying at the hotel for the conference. I'm giving Bella Ciao three stars because the food was decent, the portions were generous, and the bartender provided good service. Unfortunately, the way we were treated upon arrival overshadowed what could have been an enjoyable dining experience.

I recently had dinner at Quenelle with two work colleagues and we sat at the bar. Overall, we had a…read moregood experience. The bartender's service and cocktails were very good and the food was well prepared. The one issue that significantly changed my impression came when we received the bill. A 3% credit card surcharge was added without it ever being disclosed beforehand. I dine at higher-end restaurants frequently and have no problem paying for quality food, drinks, or service. However, I honestly can't recall ever being surprised by a credit card surcharge at the end of a meal. For me, it wasn't about the amount--it was about the lack of transparency. The surcharge was not disclosed before ordering. I hope Quenelle reconsiders this policy or, at a minimum, makes it clearly visible to guests before they order. Unfortunately, it left a bad taste and makes me unlikely to return. I'd simply encourage others to be aware of the surcharge before dining.

We've gone here a few times over the last few months, our notes:…read more -The orechiette is the best thing I've tried on the menu -Next to the chicken Milanese - so so good -The meatballs were WAY too spicy for me? Idk if it was just a one day thing because I have never had experienced that before? But I like couldn't even finish more than a few bites it was crazy! -The vodka sauce is mid - I'm sorry - they should change this recipe cuz it's really not vodka sauce -esque and whenever we get it we're like dang prolly shouldn't have gotten that and it makes me sad cuz vodka sauce is my fav food

My wife and I ordered spaghetti and meatballs and shrimp risotto on a Friday night…read more There is ample off street parking. The restaurant has a very generic modern bar scene vibe with roll up doors and the bar dominating the space. The staff were friendly and promptly directed me to the bar for my take out order, which was mildly delayed. The spaghetti and meatballs were basic. The sauce left much to be desired and a basic jarred sauce is more enjoyable. The shrimp were properly cooked, but the risotto did not shine. The dish lack cohesion and it was as though they cooked rice and tossed it in a flavorless sauce. The accompanying lobster sauce was desperately needed, but underdeveloped. The dish needed significant seasoning improvements.

The chips with onion dip were delicious. One of my favorite dishes of the night was the beef tri tip small plate. Absolutely to die for!! Melt in your mouth! I loved the gnocchi small plate and felt it was almost like a gnocchi Mac and cheese with deep flavor. So delicious! We also got the asparagus soup which was good, fresh, and extremely asparagus flavor... recommend only if you love asparagus. The fritters in it were a perfect balance! We ended the night sharing the strawberry Fusilli pasta which was good but not the best plate we had all night. Drinks were delicious and well crafted. We truly enjoyed and I even received a birthday card since we were celebrated my birthday. Our waitress Jess was wonderful and had great recommendations!

Everything was delicious, but my favorite items might have been the appetizers! the staff was very attentive to refilling our waters, cocktails, and changing out our silverware for each course. And our waitress had great recommendations!
