Buffalo thrives on diversity, and shared pride where food, football, and the arts are united from an culturally energetic atmosphere. To rank these restaurant’s would be in bad taste, for they are each uniquely different in their services which can be well appreciated based on your special occasion, or choice of dining experience.

Loud House Buffalo, my absolutely favorite place for Sunday “Afternoon-brunch“. A Modest, but tastefully dressed setting with the perfect vibe for that more relaxed Sunday without Bills Mafia. The space feels open and airy, filled with natural light that makes the atmosphere warm and welcoming, even during the winter months. Tables are comfortably arranged to create that communal environment. Servers greet you with genuine smiles, offering attentive service thats’ never rushed. Enjoy soulful sounds with live entertainment when dinner on Friday evening between 7PM-10PM, to pair with great food for a true memorable dining experience.

PhatCatz is my ultimate game-day “Sports Bar” for groups of my friends to meet up and tout effectively over the Buffalo Bills game day. When solo, I usually pull up to the counter bar seat and immediately feel part of the action. Surrounding the room are multiple large-screen televisions, making sure every guest has the perfect view of the football game from any angle. At PhatCatz, the food goes beyond typical bar fare being delicious, hearty, and freshly made with attentive service. You will feel like a home away from home for sports, good times and convenient parking!

Poize has grown into a Friday and Saturday late evening bar and nightclub hot spot. Offering the best of both worlds destination for great food, served in a lively but laidback setting where you can relax with a friend over a flavorful dinner and drinks when location opens at 7pm. As the evening sets in the energy shifts, the light dims, the music turns up, and the dance floor comes alive with the sounds of “Hip-Hop and R&B “. The DJs keeping the vibe strong late into the night as doors open until 2AM. Its a perfect place to eat, vibe, and dance all under one roof.

Ms. Goodies soul food restaurant feels just like stepping into my “Auntie’s kitchen“. I am so fond of this place that its flavor can’t be matched. Known for serving the best mac and cheese and collard greens in the city is special, yet so simple. Its the kind of place that instantly take me back to family gatherings and Sunday dinners. Their menu is so–so soulful, and comforting to me, makes “Ms. Goodies” the real deal soul food destination for me in the city. NO one cooks like this, except maybe my aunties, and even then, it’s a close call!

Yalleys authentic “African Cuisine” has quickly made a name on my list of best places to dine-in. If you know, you know every dish carries that richness in Afro-centric tradition, from perfectly seasoned fish and chicken to the wonderfully prepared gravies that ties it all together. I love asking my dates’ opinion, and watching the eyes within taking the first bite, It says it all. With plenty of space for groups, indoor and outdoor seating, a relaxed vibe lingers after your meal. This spot has everything you need, and with spaciously free parking (no Buffalo meters to worry about), convenience is part of the deal. This place is the bomb for real!
