Tsaikotic Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Bruce must have gone more then just on fridays in his last couple years on Bills...he was starting to get a bit chunky then he went to Wash and lost a lot of weight...I remember watching a Wash game and thinking "WTH, why does he look so buff now for Wash but got fat for us?"...btw, I was expecting to see some chicken on that....that was just spaghetti

Never had Illos but really like chefs 6 hours ago, Marv's Neighbor said: I would say yes. Ilio's just isn't the same. If I was going out to eat in LA (Lackawanna), I'd go to Curly's, On Ridge Rd., over Ilio's. Chef's is Chef's! Their food is always great but the store bottled sauce is disappointing., I love their bottled sauce. Where is the restaurant ?

Kirby Jackson Posted July 15, 2018 Posted July 15, 2018 Chef’s has been a family “go to” since I was little. I still go every time that I am in town. Small spaghetti parm, extra crispy with 2 meatballs and a carafe of chianti. 1

I should start fasting now, just to get ready. My parents were regulars at Chefs, but I don’t actually remember the place. I think that’s where they went to get away from me... My mom still talks about those nights, and she loved that clip today. She’s 90 but she lit up watching. Thanks! 1
stony Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) I think I'm one of the few people who doesn't really care for Chef's. But it's freaking awesome to see all the posts about people who love it and have fond memories of the joint. Places like Chefs are why Buffalo rocks. Edited July 16, 2018 by stony

Chef's can get crazy crowded before Sabres home games.

Honestly my most vivid memories of Chefs are from before Sabres games at the old Aud. Ilios reminds me of high school dances and sports banquets. Edited July 16, 2018 by YoloinOhio
Overdue Bill Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 I visited Chef's last year when I was in town for the Bills-Bucs game...had to get the spaghetti parm. Love that place!
machine gun kelly Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 God, I haven’t been to Chef’s in years. It was great. When we come home for the weekend for a Bills game, we only really have time for a Beef on Weck, Blasdell Pizza (my kids favorite), and of course Mighty Taco. We also have a family reunion on Saturday so family cooking. i will try to get there this year.

It is very sweet for a Neapolitan sauce of that type and has a very distinct flavor that, to their credit, is always very consistent. The problem is I'm not the world's biggest fan of it. I still enjoy Chef's though and have eaten there many times. When I'm in Buffalo and want Italian, though, I go out of my way to go to MULBERRY, not Chef's. Agreed in all counts as listed above, with one edit. If you've never gone to Mulberry in Lackawanna, make it a point to do so. All of you.

eball Posted July 16, 2018 Posted July 16, 2018 Chef's is an institution for sure, but I agree with others that the sauce is a bit too sweet for my liking.
