It's not just catering! Buffalo Soul Restaurant on Pearl Street is a rock solid 4.5. Our overall experience exceeded our expectations. The food was dynamite and the service was great. The food was fresh and the fried chicken (Key to our Soul style) is freshly dropped upon order. That said, you already know it's coming out with that nice crispy, divine outside! The sides were all great, we tried nearly all of them between yesterday and today. Our first experience at Buffalo Soul's new location on Pearl St. was yesterday resulting in an immediate follow up visit today to experience different items. My precious wife was equally impressed with her meals. My wife and I dine out often trying new restaurants on a consistent basis. Any review reader that has not yet experienced Buffalo Soul, treat yourself!

We truly enjoyed our experience at this restaurant. Got here when the doors opened. The owner was very friendly and sweet. We ordered the chicken dinner with Mac and cheese, candied yams, and sweet corn. The food was great and seasoned so well. The atmosphere was fantastic with great music. The waiters and waitresses kept checking on us. A fantastic experience for Black Restaurant Week. We will return

Love the food here. Absolutely got to try their cornmeal-breaded fish. The soul food is always on point and the service friendly. Definitely don't miss going to this place.

My sister & I planned a surprise birthday party for Dad in Buffalo... Neither me or my sister live in Buffalo anymore so we didn't know where to start when it came to hiring a catering company we were given a few recommendations but Buffalo Soul was the only one able to accommodate our needs for a very reasonable price so we booked with them. The process was smooth and we let them know exactly what we wanted on the menu the headcount location and time we needed the food and we were all set. We ended up doing Fried Chicken, Red Beans & Rice, Side Salad and dinner role...Needless to say we didn't have any food left over my Dad was happy as well as all the guest...My sister and I were so pleased with not only the food but their service as well. Keep up the great work!

The customer service was immaculate and Brandy is awesome. Highly recommend the fish dinner and the key to our soul chicken wings. Put Buffalo Soul on your list, truly a gem!

My favorite soul food in town. The portions are huge, their steak sub is the best in the city. All their soul food dinners are great and the prices are on point. Will def go again.
