Best American Restaurants in North Tonawanda

Another year, another absolutely fabulous birthday brunch at Patina!

We had a lovely time celebrating our anniversary at Rizzo’s. All the staff was incredible, the food is some of the best we’ve eaten in a while and we’re already planning to come back soon! Highly reccommend the mozzarella sticks, penne alla vodka, chicken parm, Italian wedding soup and cannoli. Everything else we saw come out of the kitchen looked and smelled incredible as well.

Due to various circumstances, we were unable to travel to New Orleans for Christmas as planned. We had both taken vacation time and paid the cat sitter… so we opted for a mini vacation in Buffalo. Our meal at Jazzboline made everything better. The cocktails were superb. The appetizers heat (try the deep fried lions mane.. I’ll be dreaming of that for weeks). Our entrees were very well done - his salmon was cooked perfectly and my vegetable gratin was delicious. Our waitstaff was attentive without being overbearing. We will be back!

Very disappointed that the Keg Fallsview (formerly located in the Embassy Suites hotel) was closed on 11/3/2024 in favor of the "upscale" STK Steakhouse (the Keg is relocating nearby to the Hilton sometime in Spring 2025). So, tried the other Keg restaurant in the Courtyard Marriott (about 1.5km/1 mile away from the Embassy Suites), which we knew about but had never visited. We were not disappointed as the menu items with all our favorites were present with the same excellent quality of food and service that we experienced at the Embassy Suites' Keg. We especially like the twice baked potato side (which is increasingly difficult to find on other restaurant menus), garlic cheese bread and french onion soup appetizers and the Billy Miner pie for dessert. An excellent experience even though it is in a bit less convenient location.

This was our first time and we will be back. The decor is amazing. It felt like a British club. The waiter was knowledgeable and attentive, but not intrusive. The food was excellent; calamari, steaks, loaded potato.
