We happened to find The Dapper Goose on Resy while visiting Buffalo and were very much impressed. The food was excellent with the ricotta toast, delicata squash, and bread pudding as particular stand outs. Rounding out our dining experience was absolutely stellar service from the front-of-house staff. Little touches like fresh silverware and plates between courses, attentive beverage service, and simple syrup served with after-dinner coffee really impressed us. The Dapper Goose will definitely be on our return list next time we’re in Buffalo!

Amazing Seasonly Changing Menu with a Farm To table and amazing flavorful dining experience! If you’re looking for flavor and a great taste experience look no further! The service is quick and very friendly and personable to top this dining experience off to perfection.
From the moment we called for the table to the moment we left. Everything was perfect.
The owner comes around and touches all the tables to ensure every one is satisfied and enjoying their experience.
Our server was very friendly and educated on the menu. He made great recommendations.
This was our second time of many more to come visiting. We travel 75 miles to visit The Dapper Goose, this is how amazing it is.

The Dapper Goose is certainly a good restaurant, but I wouldn’t say much more than that. Our small plate orders consisted of Octopus and Terrine, both of which were just ok to me. As another reviewer mentioned, none of the flavors really stood out. The Braised Pork was a pretty good entree, and I really enjoyed it.
The real disappointment was a completely disinterested waitress who made it feel like we were almost an inconvenience.

We had a reservation for five at The Dapper Goose for a birthday dinner… it was a completely uncomfortable and disappointing experience. The food was good, but nothing could make up for how shockingly rude and unwelcoming the staff were.
From the moment we sat down, the energy was cold. The restaurant wasn’t even busy, and we were a polite, low-maintenance group… but the staff made us feel like we were an inconvenience.
Our waiter and the person who bused our table were extremely rude and cold towards are whole table, during a time where they weren’t incredibly busy, for a table that was pretty low maintenance. Every interaction was left extremely awkward and uncalled for. I have never experienced a restaurant like this. It was completely random and totally uncalled for.
This is a restaurant where dishes cost $25+, with a reputation for elevated dining, but none of that matters when the people serving you can’t be bothered to show basic human decency. It wasn’t just bad service, it was appalling. It felt like they actively didn’t want us there.
We left feeling uncomfortable and disrespected, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. Good food doesn’t mean anything when the people serving it make you feel unwelcome from start to finish.

So this is our 4th time there. We took a 18 month hiatus to give this place another shot. And again, it was just odd. The server was so disassociated from their job, and we had this same server the previous time. It was like they were high and we were an inconvenience to their evening. Fine, we don’t need to be friends, just need to feel welcomed, which was definitely missing.
The music was like we were at a club, which was strange. Deborah Cox remixes, and other dance hits kind of felt strange for a “fine dining” experience. Totally fine to play some fun music, but seriously was way out of place.
Now the food. Omg. Talk about trying too hard. Everything had a fruit or nut component. Ok- not a problem, but it needed variety. The burrata and stone fruit salad was covered in sesame seeds. Yeah- I get textural elements but it was just weird. I had the pork schnitzel with shishitos- again just a weird presentation. An unpounded pork chop (Milanese should be thin), breaded and fried, on top of an aioli, with this handful of shishito peppers (with the stems) on top of it. Just didn’t make sense, had to ask for a side plate to get to the pork. Just put them on the side. And on top of it was this lemon caked in Cajun spices (yes as advertised) but just strange and a ton of Cajun spice on a lemon, like a chunk of it). So weird. Not that any of it was terrible, but it just was odd and out of place. Like someone was trying to hard to think of trendy food and mashed it all together into some dishes.
We tried to love it. We gave it multiple chances, even after a disastrous New Year’s Eve dinner a few years ago, but we don’t need to try again. I can’t understand why people think this place is so great. Everything was misaligned and just left us feeling like we couldn’t wait for the meal to end. We tried. Dapper Goose failed. (Pick of weird pork dish and Cajun caked lemon below). Sorry guys. Do better.

This is my favorite restaurant, no one does delicious food that you can feel good about like they do. We did a set menu birthday party here and the service and food was amazing. If you can only go one place when your here in buffalo come here

This is the best restaurant in Buffalo, if youre second guessing it at all, don’t, go here. I will dream of this place when I am back home in Cincinnati
They have such an amazing menu of diverse and unique flavor combinations. One of the best cocktails I have ever had (Broken Garden Tools) and a menu of just truly unique flavor pairings.
For example, I hate horseradish, but we ordered the Savory Bread Pudding (crab, horseradish, and cilantro) but it was amazing! The chefs here know what they are doing.
My advice, go here and order the most out of the box/unique items on the menu.

Amazing service, wonderful food, beautiful cocktails. The blackened green beans, cauliflower, and duck were lovely. Desserts were both awesome, too.

We went on a Tuesday but with only 2 more tables occupied, we could cherish the peace and quiet of the beautiful restaurant vibe at ease. The restaurant staff is very warm/ friendly/ organic and very pleasant to interact with. We ordered 3 cocktails in a reverse order of the drinks in the menu starting with The Cute for what ails you, Our circus days are over & Broken garden tools. They were all MIND BLOWING. Beautifully balanced and mixed, really delightful. We ordered the Ricotta toast & the Roasted turnips for small plates-both extremely flavorful and light. Then for our large plate we ordered the Burger & The Scallops. I lost my mind when I tasted the scallops & the risotto . It blew my mind, it was so delicious. I’ve never eaten such a great scallop dish ever!!! The burger was wonderful too but felt a bit heavy. For dessert we ordered the Bread pudding. That blew my mind a third time in a row. I’m so happy I had dinner at such a great restaurant. Best wishes to them and thank you for an Unforgettable evening.

All of the food and cocktails were amazing. The Korean fried chicken wings were some of the best wings I’ve had in a while. The the garlic shrimp, beet salad, and beet gnocchi were all delicious. The cocktails were very original and unique, but oh so good. Don’t go expecting to have left overs basedon portion size
