I regularly visit Waves for lunch in downtown, and I always find the service to be quick, friendly, and accommodating. I really appreciate their willingness to make adjustments or substitutions to mobile orders, which is becoming quite rare these days. My go-to dishes are the Bangkok fried rice and Pad Thai, both of which never fail to impress. The interior atmosphere and decor provide a nice setting for dining in. Overall, I highly recommend Waves. Rating: 4.5/5 -BJ

I visited Waves for an early dinner/late lunch with my family and was pleasantly surprised by the beautiful interior! The food was fantastic, and the service was exceptional, even though we were the only diners there. Don't let the exterior fool you—Waves offered a wonderful dining experience.

I’m new to BUFFALO. The menu looked decent so I thought I’d give this place a shot. And omfg do I regret it.Idk how y’all western New Yorkers do SUSHI but that definitely ain’t it.Don’t even get me started on the PHO. Broth was cold. Noodles soggy. Meat almost shredded and meatballs thinly sliced. Took one bite and immediately walked out. Absolutely disgusting and unacceptable. Brought up the issue with the store manager and instead of apologizing for the bad food she laughed it off had the audacity to charge me the full amount. Idk how a restaurant in the heart is downtown serving food like this is still in business.
