Restaurants near Tousley-Church House

Last night was my husband's and my first time ever going to this restaurant and in my opinion, this is the best restaurant in Buffalo we have been to. It is our Anniversary and we had Victoria (Tori) for our server and she was so knowledgeable of the menu. I am Gluten Intolerant and she knew right away what I could indulge in and what was off limits. She had the specials memorized like a boss and was so attentive. The steak was cooked to perfection and the lobster risotto was delicious. The Limencello Margarita was the best margarita I have ever had, and I love tequila and margaritas! They have little biography cards on your table about your server, which I think is a great touch. I can't wait to come back to Buffalo and come back to Giancarlo's and request Tori!

As always, food, cocktails and service were great. This is our go to spot every couple months to have a great date night and enjoy amazing food. We really appreciate the consistency here and would highly recommend. See you next time!

Your food is always amazing, from the appetizers to desserts! Our server was Red, very polite and accommodating!

Russell's Steaks Chops & More never disappoints. My husband and I celebrated my birthday. We were greeted by Mr Salvatore, who is always so gracious. Our waiter was Humberto, who was wonderful, patient and friendly. His service, along with the staff helping in our area, was absolutely perfect. We started with wine, then the world's most delicious coffee (our cups were never empty), before moving on to our entrees. We both had Steak ala Russell, which was cooked to perfection. Had to pass on dessert because, honestly, we couldn't manage another bite, and we have enough leftovers for our Christmas dinner. Thank you Russell, Mark and Humberto for the best birthday date night. We'll be back soon.

If you are looking for a high end dining experience, here is a great choice. A one hour drive from Rochester, Medina itself was had a classic, beautiful vintage Christmas feel as night fell. Our server, Steve, made the evening even more special. He was very personable, as well as a top notch waiter, maintaining the fine balance of waiting on us quickly, without appearing to hover. The pairing was superb. Wines and courses were matched in ways that made each that much more elevated. An additional extra, making the evening even more special, was lovely live music on a harp. Pricey, but an experience you don't often get in our area.
