I was traveling through Buffalo with some family and we decided to try a local place for dinner. We were not disappointed. Our waitress was extremely friendly and attentive, even though it was a busy evening. The food was delicious. At the table we had the chicken wings, Mac and cheese, the Carolina sandwich and the brisket and ribs. We enjoyed all of our food. I will happily recommend this place to anyone who is visiting Buffalo.

We ordered the 3 meat (brisket, pork, ribs) with Mac and onion rings. I personally love smoked meat and look be going to many different places to try their options. This was overall one of the worst overall BBQ meals I have had in years. The sides were decent, but the pulled pork needed drenching in sauce to make it palatible, the brisket was like warm from the get go and was more fat than meat by far. The fat that was on it had not been rendered down at all. None of the meat had a very defined smoke ring. If you like drowning your BBQ in sauce this place may be good for you.

I do not really eat meat and found this place at a lovely junction in the heart of beautiful and historic Allentown. The service was quick and friendly and considering it was the beginning of a long 4th of July long weekend; was not rushed whatsoever. I ordered the beef on the Wek, and it was simply superb , I just can't believe it wasn't meat , it was delicious and tasted exactly as the real meat version; I cannot wait to try the other vegan options. I give this place triple A rating!!! . especially if ur vegan. I cannot wait to get back to Bettys.

Very lovely place to come to, from the professional waitress/waitresses to the young lady that kept the water poured and the table crisp. I would give them 3 stars alone for that, top notch service. For the food that easily would be the rest of the two stars. Only reason for not a perfect five is for this reason only. For a Italian restaurant to not serve lasagna, I have to take a star away for that. Yea I am picky, but that's how I feel. But I tell you the food we did have was pretty good. My wife ordered the salmon, and even though it was seasoned and cook exactly how she likes it. She didn't care for the broth the salmon came on, and the gnocchi tasted like mash potatoe balls. My food was great, a nice hearty tasting, stick to your bones braised lamb shank. This dish does not fall short from amazing. The drinks and dessert was just as good. A perfect ending to a good dinner

Stopped by for dinner at 6pm last evening . My wife and I were seated by a greeter who seemed hesitant and not sure where to seat us. Restaurant was not very busy and several servers passed by us and said nothing. Further we were clearly in sight of the bar and it was obvious we had not been served.I can understand things happen and tables can be missed. But all it would have taken was for any server or the bartender to acknowledge us and say that someone would be with us soonWe sad for 10 min+ and left . This situation with proper training could have easily have been avoided.Hello,We're very sorry for your experience. Upon review of this situation, we're pretty sure that you were seated amongst a group from the bar that had taken over a few of the neighboring hightop tables. Because of this, we think your server may have been confused and thought you were part of that party, that wasn't being actively served. This was an oversight and a mistake and we apologize. We'd like to make it up to you - please email us at [email protected] and we will try to make it right so you can give us another try. We're confident your experience will be much improved upon a return visit.Our apologies again, we hope you understand. Looking forward to hearing from you.

My companion and I were in Buffalo for a last minute overnight road trip and decided on a nice dinner out. Hutchâs was the right choice. Absolutely flawless food. The beet salad with whipped feta, pistachios and greens was so good. The Eggplant Napoleon was a delicious stack of crispy eggplant, fresh mozzarella, tomato and prosciutto-wow! For the army of liver and onions lovers-Hutchâs is the Promised Land! Absolutely the best fried liver and onions with bacon Iâve ever had-period!

Best brunch menu weâve had on our US visit. Presentation of the food matched the flavor - delicious. Crab cakes were crabby-licious and steak was perfectly cooked. Eggs were easy done. But the standouts were the cocktails, try the champagne margarita! The beers were also worth trying, local brews.Staff were friendly, helpful and patient with good suggestions. Parking is easy but after those cocktails you way want to Uber.Interior was a little dark but really well done. We had a table but the bar looked like a great place to hangout.

A group of us were meeting to celebrate a special occasion. Having been to Bacchus a year ago, I was delighted to know this was the restaurant selected; and, like on the previous visit, I was not disappointed. The combination of flavors in every dish was wonderful. I have never had a superior roasted beet salad....the presentation and warm goat cheese âsurpriseâ was like a party in my mouth. Service was wonderful; and, the restaurant surprised us by giving us the desserts we selected to share gratis. A very classy restaurant. If you plan to be in Buffalo...definitely make dinner plans here!
