The Salty Chefs — Restaurant in Buffalo

What a great place for breakfast or lunch! The food was great and the service was outstanding! I ordered the cheeseburger, it was delish! My spouse ordered the breakfast sandwich; it had egg, bacon and chipotle mayo on a poppy seed bun. The chipotle made the dish a savory sensation. Our child ordered the potato latkes with apple compote and sour cream. It was also outstanding. The coffee was also superb, in our opinion the best served in Western New York.

We came at the tail end of the Holiday Season and we appreciate the fact that there were festive decorations celebrating both Christmas and Chanukah on display. Clearly this is a warm and friendly place that welcomes all.

It is also a fantastic place to stop by when you are visiting the Buffalo Passport Office (another 5 star gem). The cafe is right next door to the office and it closes at 3PM, just as "passport pickup time" begins at the passport office. It is a great place to spend some time and chill while waiting for the professionals next door to carry out their responsibilities.

The only problem is the name of the restaurant. The chefs and others who served us were not salty at all. They were the friendliest people we have met in a long time, and they, collectively, are a paragon of outstanding customer service.

We will definitely come back and also tell our friends about this...

Always good to see a new restaurant downtown! I ordered the basic cheeseburger with fries. I asked for medium rare. That was a mistake. It was a blood bath when I got to eat it. It looked like it barely kissed the flat top on each side. It was an unappetizing grey and the inside was that pure raw bloody beefiness. I wasn’t able to eat it. I guess next time I’d go medium. The lettuce, tomato and onion were very present. The roll was a good size for the burger and was good tasting. I was disappointed that I was charged .$75 each for ketchup and Mayo. I mean, a $13 burger should come with free condiments, in my opinion. The fries were tasty, shoestring style, done perfectly. They were a tad bit salty but still very crave-able. The buffalo chicken corn chowder was very good! It was smooth and thick, not heavy, had a nice heat. The chicken and veg were all the same size. It had a really great flavor. The menu seems limited and I’m not sure it’s “food with attitude”, as the sign outside states. The owners/staff were very nice. It was a little slow, but I’m sure they will improve. Will I go back? Probably. Unfortunately the price point is higher than I like to spend on lunch. However, it’s like that everywhere nowadays. When I do go back, I think it will be a...
