Reviews
Take yourself and your family and your friends, tell a neighbor as a matter of fact tell a stranger of your experience, and enjoy the food and ambience of Brett’s Hill by Chef Darien and his crew. Loved it and I will be back
My order was simple: a mixed drink, Caesar salad, and the salmon dinner.
The food came out firing on all cylinders — a true first-drive touchdown. The Caesar salad was crisp, fresh, and dressed with the kind of precision you’d expect from a perfectly executed offensive line led by Billy Schrauth. Each crunchy bite was like a clean third-down conversion. Then came the salmon — golden on the outside, tender and flaky on the inside. This wasn’t just cooked; it was orchestrated like a Jeremiyah Love run straight through the defense. Honestly, if salmon could suit up, this one would’ve been wearing blue and gold.
Then came the service, and that’s where the game tape gets ugly. My drink took longer than a replay review at the end of the fourth quarter. Getting a refill felt like calling audibles with no one on the same page. The staff disappeared like a cornerback on busted coverage. At one point, I swear I was staring down the sideline like a frustrated coach wondering where the team went. If the food was CJ Carr threading the needle, the service was a fumbled snap at the one-yard line.
The check eventually showed up — a victory, but not the kind that makes SportsCenter.
Here’s the box score:
Offense (Food): Explosive. First-round draft pick quality.
Defense & Special Teams (Service): Missed tackles. Blown coverages. Delay of game penalties.
Would I come back? Absolutely — for the food. The kitchen deserves a standing ovation under the lights at Notre Dame Stadium. But the service needs some serious coaching, maybe a spring game or two, before it’s ready to compete at a playoff level.
Final score:
Food: 48
Service: 17
Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐
If you love Notre Dame football, you’ll cheer for the Caesar and salmon like they just scored in the fourth quarter. Just don’t expect the servers to recover the onside kick.
We started with the cassava fries with aioli, which were crispy, golden, and perfectly seasoned, an elevated take on comfort food. The Taste of Jamaica saltfish and ackee spring rolls were such a unique fusion dish, with the familiar flavors of a traditional Jamaican breakfast wrapped in a crunchy, shareable bite. The tuna tostones were another standout; fresh, vibrant, and full of flavor with the perfect balance of texture.
The highlight of the night was definitely the tableside jerk experience with Chef Chris. Not only was the presentation exciting, but the jerk chicken itself was smoky, tender, and packed with authentic flavor. It felt both interactive and celebratory, adding something special that you don’t get at most restaurants. To end the night we shared the coconut and lime crème brûlée!
Beyond the food, the ambiance was warm and inviting, with a stylish yet relaxed atmosphere that made it a perfect spot for both a night out with friends or a special occasion. The service was outstanding; attentive, friendly, and genuinely passionate about the food and experience they were creating.
Bratts Hill is an absolute gem in Buffalo, and I can’t wait to come back to try more from their menu. Highly recommend for anyone who wants bold flavors, creative dishes, and a memorable dining experience!
The only thing I’ll mention which isn’t meant to be a complaint is that I thought there would be more Jamaican spices and touches in more of the dishes. There were some very specific Jamaican dishes but I was thinking there might be more fusion in the more contemporary local dishes. I should have asked and not assumed but I guess it means I just have to come back and try more menu items. Can’t wait!
The chef comes around to greet everyone, the waiters are all super knowledgeable and have always recommended dishes I’ve become obsessed with.
If you’re in Larkin, this is a must see spot. It’s unique, the food is OUT OF THIS WORLD, and the staff is the cherry on top of a fantastic restaurant. It’s an upscale experience without feeling stuffy or pretentious. We try to visit at least once a month and couldn’t recommend it more!
