Our Lady of Victory Basilica

Reviewed By Utah-Indy - Helotes, Texas

Haven’t been here in our 30 years! I remember the wonderful Christmas Midnight masses. The building itself is architecturally amazing inside and outside. Truly a national treasure. We arrived after the museum and gift shop downstairs closed at 4pm. Be respectful when you enter.

Went there on a major shopping trip. This place has it all. Spent hours there and still didn't see it all. My kids were crazy for the stores as a number of them are unavailable in Canada. Ate across the mall at Olive Garden (was awesome) but I would try the Cheesecake Factory next time. Looked great and is very highly rated. One thing caught me a little off guard. There is a significant Security presence everywhere. Mall staff and a number of police officers. I'm sure you get used to it but just caught me a little unawares. Not a problem. I'd go back in a minute. If you're a sports fan, the Dicks sports was awesome. Lots of parking too and this was a clear and busy Saturday.

Charles E. Burchfield Nature & Art Center

Reviewed By kwnike13 - Grand Island, New York

This nature center is great for families with young/small children as the trails are not long at all but there are many markers/points of interests to stop and look at. There are also picnic tables and benches throughout the trails so families can stop for a break or have a picnic. There is also a large playground for the kiddos to let their energy out.

The owner, June, truly believes in bringing her customers unique experiences. My friend decided to try the Sudatonic infrared body wrap and loved the session. I opted for the silk peel facial and my skin felt very smooth afterwards. June was a delight to speak with, friendly, outgoing and genuinely concerned for her customers to enjoy the best experience ever. I highly recommend her aesthetic boutique.

Ralph Wilson Stadium

Home field of the Buffalo Bills

Reviewed By travelingbeachbum00 - Rehoboth Beach, Delaware

If you can say one thing about Buffaloians it is that they love the Bills! What a great experience being in the stadium when the Bills are playing...better when they are winning! It is an open air stadium which baffles me since this is Buffalo after all. SO you are exposed to the elements but the enthusiasm of the crowds helps. There have been some nice upgrades so all in all a good experience.

Shea's Performing Arts Center

Reviewed By Cyprian C

Have been here multiple times for multiple plays and this place never disappoints.

Would recommend getting seating above row E (on main floor) that way you get sight of the entire stage, and naturally stay away from the far sides (like every theatre).

Great acoustics inside and. Concessions very reasonably priced (6-8$ beer/wine) (4-6 snacks).

If you love theatre and can afford to do so, it is always great to experience the same play from multiple seating locations - always a different and amazing experience.

Harvest Hill Golf Course

Reviewed By ginnybrown - Buffalo, New York

This is a really nice place to have an easy, casual dinner at sunset over the golfcourse. However.....since it's September and a beautiful Fall day in the 60's, we sat outside. Well, the heaters had no propane and the firepit was not working, so we had to move inside to keep warm. Our lovely waitress, Kali, was only one of two for the entire in and out areas. So, we waited at least 30 minutes for our drinks (that we had to pick up at the bar ourselves) including water and coffee. We do not blame the wait staff.....they were short staffed, but pleasant and apologetic. Luckily, my husbands beef on weck was "the best he's ever had", the cheeseburger was 'excellent' according to another guest, and my chicken fingers (5 huge ones) were very good. The fries are different and wonderful. So, all in all, it was very good, but it would have been a great evening to stay outdoors and enjoy the last of the DST evenings!
