Mitchell's Tavern — Restaurant in Town of Tonawanda

First, our server, Jen, was a real pro. She helped steer our selections, kept our drinks full & was super prompt. Second, this is the cleanest dive bar that I’ve ever stepped in. I mean seriously …. There isn’t a speck of dust, dirt or grime in site. And given the amount of paraphernalia (much of it signed — impressive) that is a huge feat and really speaks to the staff’s commitment.

The stars of the show? The food!!! So tasty!! My son said it was one of the best clam chowders he’s had a restaurant…ever!! I did the pastrami special on rye of course with just the right balance of sauted onions & mustard …. DELICIOUS! The hubby did the beef (on Wec of course!) with so much horseradish. My DIL did the chicken parm sandwich (with extra jalapeños) and it was fire. My other son did the spicy beef and I’m pretty sure his eyes were watering … but in a good way. The big surprise? Cajun fries with gravy & cheese. Wow. So good.

Such a great, random stop. Thank you online reviewers so we could discover Mitchell’s. It was...

The place has lots of cool Buffalo sports memorabilia. Lots of pic and jerseys lining the walls. Our server was so friendly and sweet. We split a few things since it was out 1st time here. Everything was served piping hot. The pickle chips were crispy and crunchy, with a nice dipping sauce, a little spicy but all tasty. The fries were cooked the way fries should be. Crispy outside, mashed potato like inside. The gravy served on the side was not very good. It was clumpy and not very tasty. The pulled pork(recommended by our fabulous server) was delicious, but I bit into a bone that damn near knocked my crown off. The server was very apologetic, and they even removed the sandwich from the check. (kind gesture that not a lot of places would do) The roast beef was good, but it was a bit overcooked for my taste. We really liked the atmosphere and the service, so we'll definitely return. You can't be...

My first visit to Mitchell’s Tavern back in October was awesome! I meant to write a review sooner. I blame it on the $2.50 special for Miller Lite bottles on Wednesday’s. I may have taken full advantage of, haha. The food was phenomenal! They offer soft pretzels sticks for $2, which is perfect if you’re not super hungry but want to have a few cocktails. I love the honey mustard sauce that comes with them. I also had the Roast Beef Melt. I would highly recommend. They are in Erie County, so I’ve been ordering take out at least once a week and I am...
