Bridgeview Tavern 971 East River Road, Grand Island, NY 14072

"Tried wings waited extra 10 minutes then came home wings were still not cooked really trying to like the place but 3 strikes I am out"

"Thought we'd try it! Very good wings, onion rings, burgers, and more importantly cold beer! Nice service as well."

"I first became aware of Bridgeview Tavern through mutual friends that had raved about the food, and in particular one item on the menu that I had to try. This was the Chicago style Italian Beef. As a Chicago native I was of course skeptical that 10 hours away from the Windy City there could be such a highly lauded Italian Beef. My rose tinted glasses towards my home town restaurants were swiftly ripped off my face, and dipped into the best au jus this side of the Mississippi. For starters, no one outside of Chicago knows what giardiniera is, save those fortunate to find themselves in a Mariano’s, or once upon a time a Dominick’s (RIP). This chef has honestly done their homework, and then some. The giardiniera was the perfect amount of spice, a punch in the mouth from a long lost sibling. Oily goodness pervading the deepest pockets of one’s unsuspecting pallet. The beef was shredded, slow cooked and marinated to the point where if you took out just the meat from the sandwich you’d be in luck to have only that for dinner. But nay, you have it swimming in au jus that would make a nun cry that the second coming of sandwiches has at last long come. If you think this review be too much, a joke or an exaggeration, then I challenge you to take the journey to Bridgeview Tavern and see the light as I have."

"I ordered the Cajun wings, which I had had and loved. It was a dry rub. This time it was a sauce, and nowhere near as good."

"Be prepared to wait a very long time. We waited an hour to order, and another hour waiting for the food that never came. We We thought leaving after the first hour and I wish we did. We ended up leaving after waiting 2 hours without any food. Another family that came in during Our wait ended up leaving too. Place was empty on a Thursday at 6:00 PM. Server was nice but this place just is not worth the wait. Sorry Grand Island, this isn’t it. Go elsewhere."
