10. Blue Fire Grill
Overall Ratings
4 based on 91 reviews
Recently remodeled Buffalo themed menu with several flat screen TV's. Ample bar and dinning space.
Reviewed By Moomus
The Blue Fire Grill was renovated with many more television sets, and a new sports bar theme in terms of the staff wearing sports jersey attire. But the fish fry at $16 (available from 4 to 11 pm on the large Plates), to me is by far the best item and value on the menu. It is a very huge portion of excellent quality pollock, with first rate french fries and a different kind of slaw, but all very good.Danny was a great server that followed through on everything and was very personable as well.Always a solid choice in the area with a very comfortable bar room with plenty of seating and tables, along with several dining areas for breakfast, lunch and dinner as well with tables and comfortable booths.Highly recommended and I will return again for sure!

First visit but definitely not the last. There were so many inviting entrees it made picking one difficult. We tried 3 different burgers, all cooked as requested, juicy and piled high with variety of different toppings. Chicken Caprese...enough for a 2nd meal and Black & Blue Steak salad, tender & delicious. Also, a nice children's menu and a very extensive draft beer menu.

Got a late dinner here on business trip. Nice atmosphere- fire place is very welcoming and a good place to sit by on cold nights.I split the salmon and chicken pot pie with a colleague. Salmon was better than anticipated- a little on the dry side but still very good. The chicken pot pie was huge and crust was thin and flaky. Much better than other such pies I have had. Good beer selection too and bar area looked like a good place to catch a game on the TV.

Excellent location right on the Niagara Falls Blvd strip. It's a family roadhouse with large portions on the plate and may leaving boxed lunches for later. The menu selection has variety: chicken, burgers/sandwiches comfort foods and healthy choices.Service was fast, friendly from Sydney Z and made our evening. Lots of TV's for sports events, atmosphere is causal western in theme i. I'd go back again anytime.Don L- Thank you for the kind words and wonderful rating.

6. Grover's Bar & Grill

We had not been here in a few years so we stopped with relatives in town. Three of our group went for burgers and liked them. They are so large my wife took half home for another day. The onion wings and fries are tasty. I had their very average beer battered fish fry plus their good but luke warm chicken corn chowder. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient and the place has a fun, but noisy, atmosphere.

I liked the ambiance; it was cozy, clean and pleasant. The food was excellent. They had a little of everything on the buffet. Everyone was amicable, professional and pleasant. I was sitting close by to a fountain that made the whole ambiance more relaxing and nice to be in. I will visit this place a lot more often.

We visited Santora's while staying at a hotel down the street. The restaurant has a large bar and lots of TVs. We sat in the dining area in a booth. Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. Our pizza was very hot and good. The Caesar salad was fresh, crisp and good. We enjoyed our visit and would return.

Stopped here with friends before a show. I had pan seared Salmon which was GREAT! Friends had Acadia Fish & Chips which looked twrrific. They said it was good. We started with stuffed banana peppers, good but needed 1 more to the serving.Service was outstanding. The noise from the packed bar area was hardly noticeable. I've heard the wood fired pizza is good so we'll haveto go back.
2. Duffs

Reviewed By 630Elm
Duffs is essentially the birthplace of Buffalo chicken wings (yes, I know thereâs a silent debate between Anchor Bar and Duffs). We stopped into the original Duffs to see how the magic started and were not disappointed. Our order included Mild, Medium Light, Medium, and Medium Hot, each more delicious then the last. We rounded out the table with fries and gravy, washed it down with Root Beer and Yuengling. This is a must stop if you are in the greater Buffalo area.
