Everything we have eaten here has been really good. Came here for a fish fry for an out of town. It was a tempura beer battered. Nice, light, crispy. It was perfectly done. I will definitely be back for this. Also ordered the Italian beef, which is on top 10 in Buffalo as well as the fish fry.Not a super large sandwich, but definitely enough and very tasty.

I have been to Lakeshore Cafe numerous times and I can say I have never had a bad meal. Their menu is well-rounded and they always have great specials. This time I got the halibut tacos and I was so excited to see halibut on a menu in WNY. As an Alaskan living in WNY it made me feel at home and boy was it delicious!!! I love the staff as well. They are so friendly, attentive and down to earth.

We just ate there and I had to write a review.
The food is amazing! We tried the pretzel and it was fresh and really good.

Small cafe and a great spot for a sandwich. Beef on weck was excellent as was the best cuban sandwich. A special thanks to Cory? (I’m so bad with names so this may not be right). He took the time to sit and chat with my 95 year old mom and made her feel really special.
Easy access for my mom and her walker.

The people leaving negative reviews must be either just plain miserable or professional cry babies. My family and I eat here at least once a week. We’ve come during peak as well as slow times, and always had great service and food. Having lived in Chicago for a decade, I can say the Italian Beef is better at Lakeshore than popular places in Chicago that are known for it. The food hasn’t changed and still great despite the sad and unexpected passing of the owner and chef. I’m glad his business partner is continuing on so we don’t have to eat at other places that serve the same old Buffalo foods all the time.

Ordered a chicken sandwich and grilled cheese today, both with soups. Sat down at 1:30, and didn’t receive the food for until 2:20. There were only 2-3 other tables with us.
Service was great, atmosphere was, too. But for an order that seemed it would be quick, it took far too long. Busy restaurants with more complex orders don’t even take that long. Not sure I would return.

We stopped by after seeing Niagara Falls. The ratings were very positive so we gave it a try. So glad we did! My husband had the French onion soup; I had the shrimp creole soup. Both were amazing! Also ordered the Italian Beef and Cuban sandwiches. Amazing! The pic shows half of each sandwich (we shared). Lastly we ordered the cinnamon bun and limoncello cheesecakes. The limoncello could have been more lemony but the cinnamon cheesecake was delicious! Highly recommend the Lake Shore Cafe.

I came in with a friend to try a fish fry for dinner after hearing all over that this place does them best. They weren’t kidding. I got a fish fry and it was fantastic. My friend doesn’t like fish, so she tried their French onion soup as an appetizer, and street tacos for her meal. She said they were both incredible, and that was the best food shes ever had. The staff was amazing as well. The young person who seated us and got our drinks was extremely sweet, and took time to explain things we had questions about despite being busy. They didnt make us feel like we were wasting time, and wasnt making us feel rushed. Very kind but professional at the same time. Our waitress Kaitlyn was sweet as well. She was quick and also handled being very clearly busy. She was an awesome waitress and I’d have no complaints having her again. On our way out we had a small conversation with the bartender, Cassie, who is a very kind and very social person. I will definitely be coming back here and be recommending this place to my friends and family, as it has the best food and kindest employees.

I have driven by this location countless times but never went in. I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in, the inside is completely updated and super clean! The food was tasty, service was friendly. I didn’t get a picture of the appetizer: bacon wrapped onion peels, but oh wow! A great tasting bite! Price point is competitive/reasonable. Definitely recommend and would come back!
