It all started off with a very warm welcome by the hostess. A very friendly greeting to it. When sitting at the bar waiting for our table it was very pleasant. bartenders were very attentive. Our waiter Chris was excellent , beyond excellent. his side kick was also excellent. the attention to detail by these professional`s was amazing. the food was delicious. We live in Rochester and wished it was as good as the buffalo branch. Rochester B&B has a very cold feeling to it and a different vibe to it. Hope to be back VERY soon....

The server forgot to submit my husband’s dinner order, so he had to wait for his meal while the rest of us ate. However, she gave us a $10 gift card before we left.
