Local Flavors
So many ways to hit the spot.
The best way to understand a city? Through your stomach. In Buffalo, that means experiencing vibrant diversity, and a compelling mixture of blue-collar traditions and a one-of-a-kind creative spirit. We're proud of our world-renowned contributions to the culinary world, from chicken wings and beef on weck to sponge candy, but we're equally proud of our ever-evolving restaurant scene, which has exploded over the last decade to make Buffalo a best kept secret for foodies of all stripes (just ask Anthony Bourdain). This has everything to do with Buffalo's richly diverse immigrant population - head to North Buffalo for incredible Italian food, the West Side for down-home Puerto Rican, or the East Side for classic German and Polish fare. Whether your taste buds are craving a killer cheeseburger, kaleidoscopic sushi platter or anything in between, you'll want to make a reservation with the City of Good Neighbors.
