JT’s Buffalo Food Review
JT’s Restaurant Buffalo Food Review 🍽️✨ Third time doing a day trip to Buffalo, and this time I finally tried JT’s Restaurant—highly recommended by a friend! And wow, it did not disappoint! Compared to last time’s “great appetizers, mediocre mains” experience, this time the main course absolutely stole the show 😍 The overall dining experience was definitely a level up! 🍴 Appetizers: 1. Carpaccio 🌟🌟🌟🌟 The beef itself was very fresh and tender, and the cheese was wonderfully sweet and creamy—a nice layered combination. BUT! I have to say it: why did they have to spread such a thick layer of salad dressing on top?? 😫 The heavy sauce completely overpowered the delicate flavor of the beef… it felt like the sauce was dominating the dish. Some friends said they liked it this way, so… I guess taste is subjective 🥲 2. Oysters 🦪 🌟🌟🌟🌟 The oysters were fairly fresh, no unpleasant odor, but they weren’t especially sweet or bursting with flavor. They were a bit better than some I’ve had in Toronto, but still not quite on par with the super sweet, juicy ones I’ve tried in Seattle or Florida. Still, a decent starter! 🍗 Main Courses—The Highlights: 1. Roast Chicken 🌟🌟🌟🌟 The roast chicken was pretty standard—crispy skin, tender meat, but the seasoning was just okay. Nothing particularly memorable, but a safe and reliable choice. 2. Roast Lamb Leg 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!) OMG THIS ROAST LAMB LEG WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!! 🔥 First of all, the fat-to-lean ratio was perfect—every piece had just the right amount of marbling. The cooking was spot-on: slightly crispy and charred on the outside, while the inside remained incredibly tender and juicy 💦 The seasoning was top-notch too! The spices penetrated every bit of the meat, eliminating any gamey taste without overpowering the natural flavor of the lamb. One bite, and the juices burst in my mouth, with a slight smoky char and rich fattiness—it literally made me close my eyes in happiness 😌❤️ It’s so easy to order lamb at Western restaurants and end up disappointed (either overcooked or dry), but this lamb leg—PERFECTION!! I’d be heartbroken if anyone came to Buffalo and missed this 💔 📍 Final Thoughts: JT’s Restaurant offered a great overall experience—especially that roast lamb leg, which is totally worth a special trip! The appetizers might depend on personal taste, but the main courses are definitely on point. Perfect for a date night, anniversary, or just a high-quality Italian meal 🥂 Already added to my “Must-Eat in Buffalo” list! Next time, I’m excited to try their other mains. Can’t wait to be wowed again ✨ #ItalianCuisine#RestaurantRecommendation#InternationalFood#FoodReview#BuffaloEats#FoodieDiary#HiddenGem#RoastLambLegIsEverything
