Sat at the bar and Aaron took such good care of us. The inovative drink list was worthy of revisiting a few timed during the meal. Wasp knees was my favorite close to whatever that smooth paradise in a glass was. Appetizers set up for what was a great dinner experience. Scallops and wagyu steak with demi were almost as good as the seared duck. The homemade pasta was tremendous. Tender Buccatini perfection. And finally that Robin's egg... I want to order one of these that is the size of a wedding cake. Creamy, crunchy, rich but delicate. Craveable contrast served on a plate. I'd return for the Robin's egg and that drink list alone. Belgium lambic just for show!
April 12, 2022 Good Day, Yesterday was our two year engagement anniversary. I was perusing online destinations to cater to my lady for the evening. After browsing I remembered every time being at the intersection of Amherst and Delaware- my lady stating that I've never taken her there. So, rightfully so I made reservations for 8:00 p.m. which was user friendly online and easily confirmed through my email as well as cell phone via text. Moving forward, upon arriving there was valet car service. The valet gentleman was very inviting/ well mannered & even opened the doors for my lady and I to get out the car. Addition taking the initiative to do the same for the door to the establishment and followed suit in the same manner on the exiting portion of the establishment while offering to take a picture of us for our memories hence; earning gratuity when it was all set and done. Once entering the building there is a coat check in the foyer area if you chose to utilize that option. After that there is a podium where a hostess expeditiously checks for your reservations and seats you immediately. The ambiance of this location is completely exceptional. The wait staff are dressed to the impress and the table was set up like they were expecting us. Tablecloth as well as tableware were practically brand new and clean. The wine list is quite extensive and the selection of food was eclectic concurrent to being able to touch anyone's pellets. The waiter which I believe his name was Dave was very attentive and the epitome of helpful in asking questions while embodying a charisma required for the role that he has been employed for. Food portions were great and the way the cuisine was prepared was top tier. I recommend the waygu steak ????. The spinach bread was tasty. We were even offered three different types of water (bottled, sparkling or tap). I really appreciate the initiative as far as service and quality at this establishment. Definitely revisiting based on the experience and feeling like my money was earned/well spent. Thank you Oliver's for making our two year anniversary that much more special. With your success in mind, Love Tiffany and Luis Downtown Buffalo, NY ????
Girlfriend and I went there for our five year anniversary. All I can say is INCREDIBLE. Wine was great, food was amazing, dessert was awesome. Started off with the “decadence of egg” and shrimp cocktails. The egg was phenomenal even though it was just a single egg, the flavor was incredible. I got the Wagyu steak and my girlfriend got the seared scallops - I can definitely say that was the best steak I’ve ever had, definitely worth the hefty price tag. Ended with salted toffee and mocha gelato with a cappuccino, the gelato was also amazing. Our server Carl was super friendly with a good sense of humor. 10/10 would definitely go again!
My family and I have made Oliver's part of our tradition for celebrating holidays and special events. We always look forward to the superb service, the thoughtfully crafted menus, and delicious fine dining. There are always new dishes, ingredients, and presentations to look forward to. Everything is top notch, and I always feel that the prices are reasonable with the level of experience. Oliver's is not a place we get to visit often, but we always leave with fantastic memories.
