We ate here instead of the buffet. It was cheaper and we weren’t too hungry. My husband got a club sandwich which looked pretty good. It had a lot of Turkey and he enjoyed it. I had the chicken stir fry. Not enough chicken though and it was drowning in soy sauce but was tasty. Would go again. It is upstairs from the casino so the smoke rises a little and it has a non smoking section but it’s impossible to get away from the smoke. Not bad for the price. Cheaper prices during the week on select entrees.

After a day of leaf peeping in the nearby Allegany State Park a friend and I stopped to grab a quick snack. When we asked if there were free refills on the coffee and tea we were told sure. When we were leaving and went for our free refills we were told there would be a charge......
The donuts were good. But the customer service was non-existant.
We'd have been better off simply to go to McDonalds.

This a good place to sit and relax with a good meal while playing at the casino. Portions are very large. So I would suggest sharing.

The food was absolutely delicious and atmosphere very romantic. Our waitress and Hostess was very helpful and gave excellent customer service. For a great restaurant our bill was modest. We will definitely be a repeat customer. Plus the casino was great too and very beautiful. Located in the mountains, we couldn't have had a more perfect evening.

Had $100 food credits and thought I'd try the Western Door at Seneca Allegany. I was greeted by a man at the door who said "hello sir". Although my hair is short and I had on sporty clothes, this was not a mistake he should have made. After checking me in, he realized it, but never apologized. I was taken to a nice table and prompted greeted, offered water and after asking, given a wine list. I also had to ask about specials. I often notice that singles are not given a wine list or told about specials. I ordered and service was just right in terms of time between courses. My shrimp cocktail- 5 good sized shrimp- was ok for $16..however one shrimp was either dehydrated or otherwise dried out so that it was inedible. The server's helper, who cleared did not apparently make this known to the server or chef as I asked her to. Someone should have explained, apologized or brought me another suitable shrimp. From there however the meal was great. Filet was done properly, good and proper temperature, a large baked potato was served with butter, sour cream, cheese and bacon bits. The bread basket was varied and three good butter preparations were offered. The cinnamon sugar butter was yummy! I chose a chocolate and strawberry dessert which included bits of cake, sliced strawberries and ice cream under a thin chocolate dome. It was magnificent looking and quite good. The plate must have been hot when the dish was plated however...as ice cream was looking more like vanilla sauce. It was a good meal...if the small things I mentioned had been noticed or avoided, it would have been a 5. One pet peeves. I took part of my steak, half the baked potato and 2 slices of bread for a doggy bag. Would you think they might put the bread in something separate. No..all were packed tightly in a little plastic container..all together making bread soggy. Please note that the ratings at the end of the review (for service. Food and value) would not work on my computer..all were only showing one dot...not 4 or 5. My rating for all three would be a 4..very good

Old rustic Inn in need of a make over. Very dark inside (wonder what they are hiding). Menu has nothing that jumps out at you. Good for lunch but I would not go for dinner. Service was good.

The owner is great, the bar is clean and friendly, and the food is delicious and inexpensive. This local Irish Pub often has live Irish music. The through a great St. Patrick's Day party. This pub also has pool and bubble hockey. One of my favorite local bars.

Quite small inside but food is delightful. Lucky to get a booth, the place was quite busy on a weekday. We both had omelettes and the fried potatoes can be ordered a dozen or more ways. Efficient service and prices that illustrate honesty, unlike pretentious chains that gouge your wallet. Try it, you'll be back again. Guaranteed!

We found this place by mistake while in Salamanca, we've been back twice since!
It's a small, independent pizza shop that makes a really good pie. Then we tried their calzone type dish, I think it's called the volcano. It was excellent.
Both times our server was Kim (ber?). She was very pleasant and accommodating.
Just minutes from Seneca casino. It's worth the trip.

I have been there many times and the food is always fresh and good. Many choices are available because it's a buffet. I've never been there for dinner, but their lunches are outstanding.
