My wife and I were looking for a good restaurant close to the casino for a Friday fish fry! My navigator came up with Gadawski's. What a score... It's on Falls Blvd., just down the street from the back entrance, soon to be front of the Seneca Casino. We encountered easy street parking, which seemed to be in a safe area, at corner of Portage Avenue. With the side door entrance, welcome to a packed house. Warn corner bar with table seating leading back to a busy back room, with a welcoming, smiling hostess, ready to seat you. Service was relatively quick, considering a full house. The decor is pro "Notre Dame", mid back service bar for staff, kitchen in back serving 25 or so, clean level tables, matching chairs with table clothes, and condiments at each set up. Your met by a friendly waitress, bread and butter and eager to fufill both your food and beverage requirements. Drinks were quick in clean glasses, food followed soon thereafter. The food was to die for! Great, not overkill or too little portions. We actually shared a little of each others, because of the flavorful portions. No rush to finish and a desert menu that would satisfy any sweet tooth. No joke, it was all good. We have came across a hidden gem, nestled in an old portion of the city. Literally, less than a mile from the casino and falls itself. We will be frequenting this establishment in the future and you won't be wrong to give it a try. It accepts reservations of five or more. Wait times can vary. We were seated immediately. Cash only, ATM on site and a warm place to eat and drink. Two full meals, five drinks, gratuity and you'll have money leaving for under $50.00. Well worth it! My hats off to my...

If your looking for great food that is fresh, look no further. I loved every bite of my pierogis (tried all four types) and the cabbage roll (soft and tender). The pierogis will ruin you for other pierogis, and that’s okay, get ruined. I washed my dinner with a bottle of Tyskie pivo (one of the tasty Polish beers that is carried at this establishment).
I cannot wait to come back to dine at this place in the future, thank you for keeping this place going and producing such quality food.
Make sure you have cash or your ATM card (an ATM on site) as credit cards are...

While visiting the falls, we did exactly that and are happy we did. The food was great and the service was impeccable.
Gadawski's is a hole in the wall that is very misleading. When we first pulled up in front I started to leave. But I've had similar experiences back home in Washington DC. We decide to go in, were greeted immediately, took a seat in the back room...a very large back room.Our server Michelle seemed to know all of the other guest by name.
If not for the apparent time warp back in time, Gawdawski's would have a line...
