Restaurants near Jackson Blood Cobblestone House

Last night was my husband's and my first time ever going to this restaurant and in my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Buffalo we have been to. It is our Anniversary and we had Victoria (Tori) for our server and she was so knowledgeable of the menu. I am Gluten Intolerant and she knew right away what I could indulge in and what was off limits. She had the specials memorized like a boss and was so attentive. The steak was cooked to perfection and the lobster risotto was delicious. The Limencello Margarita was the best margarita I have ever had, and I love tequila and margaritas! They have little biography cards on your table about your server, which I think is a great touch. I can't wait to come back to Buffalo and come back to Giancarlo's and request Tori!

Highly recommend black and blue if you are looking for an amazing dinner and atmosphere. Staff is very friendly and efficient. Sleek decor without that sterile all metal look. I would not recommend it for the little ones, not because the restaurant discourages it, but as this is a dining experience, it is not geared for children. The other customers are there to enjoy their dinner. Tonight, just as we were leaving parents brought in a little one who shreaked several times and I noticed some customers startle. For parents reading this I do indeed love children, have 5 and 9 grandkids and twin great grands. This grandmother is just giving her opinion.

my wife and I walked in and was welcome at the entrance. Having given my name and reservation time, I walked back to have a seat, and even before reaching it we were approached by the lady who walked us to our table. The light was dim, it was calm with nice Christmas song playing in the background. Within seconds we have our waitress coming to our table with a welcoming smile introducing her to us. She brought us a glass of water each while we looked at the menu. I order my usual meal when I first walk in a restaurant, a medium rare New York sirloin with accompaniments sautéed fresh vegetables. I ordered Escargi as starter. My wife was so pleased by the area we were sitting, and while waiting for our food we ordered a glass of wine and a Sangria. The wine was good and the Sangria delicious. The waitress brought us some warm bread and cream after asking us. Soon the Escargot can and to my surprise it was a bigger portion than I expected and that was so delicious. Time to have lunch, our food were served and my wife was also shocked by the portion of her Nachos with decorative sides such as salsa, guacamole and a whipped cream. She could not finish it all while I was enjoying my steak. The sautéed vegetables was also safe a bigger portion compared to what other restaurants I’ve been to always served. The steak was as I requested it and the quality was phenomenal. Medium rare, fresh, juicy steak! That brought is big smile in my face. I would recommend this place to anyone who lives in the East, and why not from other area as I came from Barrie!! Yes from Barrie to Ajax to have the most amazing service and higher quality meals for just $103.00 including a token of HST only.

Russell's Steaks Chops & More never disappoints. My husband and I celebrated my birthday. We were greeted by Mr Salvatore, who is always so gracious. Our waiter was Humberto, who was wonderful, patient and friendly. His service, along with the staff helping in our area, was absolutely perfect. We started with wine, then the world's most delicious coffee (our cups were never empty), before moving on to our entrees. We both had Steak ala Russell, which was cooked to perfection. Had to pass on dessert because, honestly, we couldn't manage another bite, and we have enough leftovers for our Christmas dinner. Thank you Russell, Mark and Humberto for the best birthday date night. We'll be back soon.

If you are looking for a high end dining experience, here is a great choice. A one hour drive from Rochester, Medina itself was had a classic, beautiful vintage Christmas feel as night fell. Our server, Steve, made the evening even more special. He was very personable, as well as a top notch waiter, maintaining the fine balance of waiting on us quickly, without appearing to hover. The pairing was superb. Wines and courses were matched in ways that made each that much more elevated. An additional extra, making the evening even more special, was lovely live music on a harp. Pricey, but an experience you don't often get in our area.
