Hidden gem. A variety of ethnic foods available. We personally love Zelalem's Ethiopian booth. Great spot to shop for some unique gifts, too.

Drinks & Nightlife

One of the best dive bars in Buffalo. Surprisingly good food- no deep fryer so everything is smoked or over baked. And vegetarian options! Highly recommend the wings, although they are not traditional "Buffalo" style. Great for late nights. Award winning jukebox.
