Buffalo Riverworks
Buffalo Riverworks
Description
A lively, spacious venue with great views, a well-stocked bar and varied activities—from concerts and wrestling to axe-throwing and an outdoor rink—makes this a go-to for groups and events. Drinks and several dishes earn praise, and staff can be attentive, but experiences vary. Recurrent issues include long waits, inconsistent food temperature/quality, surprise charges and gratuities, and some safety/exit concerns around the dock and rink. Worth visiting for atmosphere and events, but come prepared for possible service hiccups and billing surprises.

Feedback
On the downside, the weather made the rinks a bit soft, but that's not anyone's fault and certainly better than dealing with freezing temperatures. Although the restaurant wasn't busy, we experienced a long wait for our food—over an hour! However, the shrimp tacos, pizza, and wings were delicious. One concern was how the bill was handled. They included an 18% gratuity without mentioning it first. Instead of providing a paper bill, they just read out the total, which led to us double tipping. It felt a bit dishonest not to disclose this upfront; they mentioned there’s a small sign in the bar, but it would have been better if they had been more straightforward. Overall, just be transparent about these things!
My group of friends and I were all surprised to see on the bill that for those who ordered meals where French fries was a side option, they were charged an additional $2.00 for those French fries, instead of it being included with the meal. Upon ordering with the waitress, it was never mentioned to us that sides (such as French fries which are typically universally included) would cost an additional $2.00. That being said, the food quality was subpar: the macaroni and cheese wasn’t warm, the fish taco shells weren’t warm, and the fries were bland and mushy.
As enormous and awesome as your mom. Go to the exits facing the water. Step out onto the patio. Place your arms on the railing. Breath deep. Let your eyes trace the waters edge as you inhale. Exhale. Lift your gaze to the city. Go back to the show.
Family is up from Florida wanted to eat by the water had them meet me at RiverWorks at 8pm. 7 of us all together. We was told by the African American younger girl glasses two tone braids that if we want to eat we will have to go the bar and order they are about to close . As we were standing at the bar wondering were to go now we watched two other families come and get a table we walked right back up there and I think his name was terry black man with dreads took care of us..
