In Buffalo, family-run Italian places are busiest on weekend evenings and around holidays, when reservations or call-ahead seating are worth it. BYOB is common at smaller restaurants in some states, with a modest corkage fee or none at all; the listing or a quick call will tell you. Wing-and-pizza shops across New York do most of their business by delivery and price wings by the piece or in fixed counts, with sauce heat adjustable on request. Catering trays, party pizzas and sheet pies need a day's notice at most places, and more around big game days.

The business lists hours on 2 days of the week. Typical hours are 11 AM–8 PM. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (716) 856-9187. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, ilovechefs.com.

I went for the classic Spaghetti Parm. It was as good as advertised. I had the "small" serving, which was plenty. I also added two meatballs, which were fantastic and plenty. The house sauce was great and the bread was as fresh as described (and about half a loaf for one person!).

Wow! This place was GREAT! From a non-pasta lover, the sauce was flavorful without being overly garliced, or acidic, with a sweet note 🀌 I had to get the Spaghetti parm, and it did not disappoint. The cheese was fresh, it wasn't oily or heavy, and it was perfectly melted. My husband got the Spaghetti and meatballs, he said the meatballs were very tender. We also got the house salad to start (big enough for 2), and I got dessert. I highly recommend the Raspberry almond cake. If we come back to Buffalo we will definitely return to try some other things on the menu.

The is an old school,home style Italian restaurant. Complete with red checker tablecloths and family and celebrity pictures on the wall.Famous for their spaghetti parm that they created. It doesn't disappoint. Reservations are recommended. Severs and staff were attentive and knowledgeable.

Are you a fan of Spaghetti and cheese? Well then you owe it to yourself to check this legendary buffalo establishment out! Amazing Spaghetti/Chicken Parms just bring your appetite (and put on your bib! 😜) because even the "extra small" is enough to fill you up and the large portions are *huge*... and all absolutely loaded with cheese 😊 Make sure to try the made-in-house fresh bread as well. It's to die for. The restaurant is also just oozing character. The inside is like a giant history book with photos of all the famous guests over their now 100+ year history. Very cool. Loved absolutely everything and will definitely be back for more!
