Food was really good. Amanda, our server, was super friendly and very attentive. However, my food was barely warm. No, I didn't say anything because I normally eat room temp food. With that being said, for a restaurant I expected hotter food than room temp. I ordered the Polish plate and he got the half chicken plate. We tried the cheese and bacon tots since the menu said it was a fave! We really enjoyed it. Both meals came with soup or salad. We opted for salads. Only downfall was the person vacuuming right next to tables where people are eating.

First I want to say that our server Mike is probably one of the best servers in WNY. He did a great job on a busy Saturday and was a real pro. We ordered four items. The blueberry pancakes and Smores pancakes were great! The pot roast sandwich was dry and just ok and the French onion soup was good. Will definitely be back to try some other options.

My wife and I eat here once or twice a month, usually for breakfast at dinner time. The food is very good, the service is fast and friendly. I usually get the Olive tree breakfast with french toast, my wife gets an Omlet or the greek chicken sandwich but I have had the turkey club and turkey melt as well. Highly recommended!

Breakfast was great. Hungry man Breakfast. Eggs, bacon, sausage patties, home fries and pancakes or French toast. My other half had an omlett. Waitress was very attentive.

I’ve been coming to this restaurant for years with my family. It’s always been a special place for us — reliable, comforting, and full of great memories. That’s why tonight hurt so much. This was my first time ordering takeout online, and I was genuinely excited to enjoy the amazing fish fry I’ve always loved. But what I got instead was a complete mess. I waited over an hour, only to come home and find our entire order was wrong. We ordered broiled and battered fish with baked potatoes and French onion soup. What we got was oily, soggy, and careless. The broiled fish was falling apart, the battered fish was drenched in grease, the baked potatoes were replaced with limp, soggy fries. It honestly felt like no one cared — and that’s the part that stings the most. The only decent gesture was
