• Steakhouse • Buffalo

Booked 78 times today

Our Sicilian Steakhouse is an original concept that celebrates the Sicilian-immigrant culinary experience. Referred to as the "original fusion cuisine," Sicilian food is a historical mosaic influenced by the various conquering nations. Traces of Greece, North Africa, Rome, the Middle East, Germanic nations, France, Spain, and Italy are evident in traditional Sicilian cuisine. At Giancarlo's, our love of history-rich Sicilian cuisine is combined with our interpretation of both the great American Steakhouse and the Neapolitan Pizzeria.

My date was on a flight back from Paris and sat next to a lovely couple from Buffalo who suggested Giancarlo’s. And boy were they spot on!!! First of all, our waitress, Olivia, was delightful and very knowledgeable with the menu. She and the other staff were on top of all our needs. There were so many choices I can’t wait to go back and try more. The filet mignon was the best I have ever had!! My date had the oysters and was very impressed! Our cocktails were delicious as well!! We don’t know the name of that couple on the plane, but thank you for steering us towards Giancarlo’s! It was well worth it!!
