Siena

“Excellent food and service. Prices are a bit high but its worth it for a nice dinner out. The whole restaurant group of siena, 800 maple, JTs, Roccos do it well!”

“I recently dined at Siena Restaurant in Buffalo, NY while on a business trip, and the experience far surpassed anything I anticipated. A colleague had strongly recommended it, and I am very glad I took their advice. Upon arrival on a Monday evening, the parking lot was completely full, so I had to find a creative spot of my own. Entering alone and intending to sit at the bar, I was greeted warmly by Nina and Carol even though both the dining room and bar were packed. I mentioned my preference for a bar seat, and they immediately let me know the two end seats would soon be available as those guests were moving to a table. The short wait proved to be an excellent decision. Angela, the bartender, delivered exceptional service right from the start. She prepared a superb variation on a Boulevardier that incorporated banana bitters, resulting in one of the most balanced and memorable cocktails I have ever enjoyed. On her excellent recommendations, I ordered the local beets with goat cheese as my appetizer, which offered a perfect harmony of earthy and creamy flavors, followed by the lobster risotto as my main course. The risotto was rich, flawlessly prepared, and easily ranks among the best I have ever tasted. I finished with the crème brûlée, whose perfectly crisp caramelized top and velvety custard made it outstanding in every way. On a Monday night, particularly in today’s restaurant environment, one might reasonably expect a good but not remarkable meal. Siena delivered something far greater: outstanding cuisine, a lively yet genuinely welcoming atmosphere, and attentive, personalized service that made the entire evening feel special. My sincere appreciation goes to Nina, Carol, Angela, and the entire team for transforming a solo dinner during a business trip into a truly memorable and exceptional experience. If you find yourself in or near Buffalo, Siena is absolutely worth your time. Reserve a table and go; you will not be disappointed. 5 stars without hesitation. This is a standout restaurant.”

“Sienna was our second choice for Italian, but the first place screwed up our reservations. It will be our first choice from now on, because it was fantastic. They got us in last minute, even when the place was crowded. Food was wonderful, from salads to entrees. Service was so good it felt almost too good lol. Everything was wonderful, will be back.”

“My wife and I dined here for our anniversary. This was our first visit. We were seated and given complimentary prosecco which was a nice touch. We were served cheese, olives, and bread as customary there. We ordered appetizers; charred octopus for me and artichoke almafi for my wife. Both were excellent. For our main course I had the roasted duck and my wife the seafood scampi. The waiter and kitchen staff were especially careful with her food selections as we advised them she has a soy allergy. Both entrees were excellent. For dessert we had the crème brûlée which was also very good. Overall a great dining experience and we will be back.”

“While staying in the area for business meetings we came here for dinner… Made a reservation and it’s good we did, they pack this place at dinnertime! Service was decent, but the menu was great! So many incredible options to choose from! They have a nice list of pizzas too, as they have a wood fired pizza oven. We started with their table bread and this was some outstanding bread, which also included crackers and I’m pretty sure it’s all made in-house. They have a nice wine list and it’s not over-priced either. Next up was their salad, which was really good and made with fresh ingredients! Definitely enough salad to split with someone. Their entrées all impressed those at the table! The pork chop was incredible and so was the fish dish of the night, a halibut. Pizza was really good too! Highly recommend saving room for dessert, they have a nice list of options for dessert! Definitely some really good eats here… Stop in and see for yourself!”
