The Skylon Tower Revolving Dining Room is located 775' atop of the Falls offering one of the most specular views. Both the menu and service are top notch. Ask for Tom as your server, tell him your staying at the Butler House and promise a memorable evening!

We've been trying more restaurants walking distance from the house and found a gem in Napoli Ristorante & Pizzeria in Canada. If you're spending the day in the Clifton Hill area we highly recommend this place. Exceptional food and another great date night location!

Located a mile from the house is the hidden gem Savor, an upscale restaurant in the city managed by the Niagara Falls Culinary Institute’s (NFCI). Savor features an open kitchen where student chefs are on “display” to showcase their talents. A must if availability so book early!

Cuisine – American

Location - Lewiston (waterfront)

All the restaurants in Lewiston are excellent, but eating at the SILO along the waterfront not only beautiful and relaxing, but very good food. Adam Richman and the crew from the Travel Channel's Man V. Food visited the SILO to sample the World-Famous Haystack!

Cuisine – Italian

Location - Lewiston

Casa Antica is our favorite date night location located in Lewiston ~10 miles from the house. Great ambiance, friendly staff, and best Italian food in the area. Jamie’s favorite is the scallop risotto, and myself something off the daily specials. If busy, grab a seat at the outdoor bar!

Cuisine – BBQ

Location - Lewiston

Also located in Lewiston ~10 miles from the house is Brickyard Pub & BBQ. Best BBQ in the area, and have a special edition of wings where they smoke them, then deep fry before adding their house rub. We love the rub, and sold in bottles if you want to take some home!

Cuisine – American

Location - Niagara Falls, Lewiston (waterfront)

The Griffon is ranked #1 in Niagara Falls by TripAdvisor, and a unique experience with 50 craft beers on tap and one of the more creative, grommet menus. The restaurant has multiple locations ~10 miles away with different menu and vibe, so check them out.

Cuisine - Local

Location - Niagara Falls

If you are looking for where the people in Niagara Falls hang out and get authentic local cuisine [Buffalo wings, beef on weck, etc.], Mister M's is the place! Only a 2-3 mile drive from the house, and everything is made from scratch... even the potato chips and now addicted.

Cuisine – Mexican

Location - Niagara Falls

Living in California 30+ years, I miss Mexican food all too often. La Galera Mexican Restaurant is by far the best option locally and only 5 miles drive from the house. The place is colorful & clean, portions VERY generous, and the menu a myriad of great options!

Cuisine – Chinese

Location - Niagara Falls

Located in the Seneca Casino ~1 mile from the house is Koi. Their dishes are mainly Chinese, and use fresh, quality ingredients where you can taste the difference. Jamie says the Beef Chow Fun is the best she's had in the US, and the Peking duck is as good as when in Beijing.

Cuisine - Vietnamese / Asian

Location - Niagara Falls

For Vietnamese, as well as a good Asian menu, look no further than Pho Golden. The menu is diverse, house specials unique, and price very reasonable for quality homemade dishes. Pho Golden is located 2 miles from the house with parking located in back.

Cuisine – Japanese

Location - Niagara Falls

This was another find from our guests and found ourselves going soon after. By far the best sushi in Niagara Falls. Adding an 800-degree seasoned stone at your table to cook meat or vegetables is a treat you have to try! Steak Stone & Sushi is located 5 miles from the house.

Cuisine – Italian

Location - Buffalo

If going to Buffalo or Letchworth State Park, we suggest eating at Mulberry Italian Ristorante located south side of Buffalo ~25 miles from the house. My first exposure was on the TV show Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Oh my, hands down the BEST lasagna you will ever try!

Cuisine – Seafood

Location - Wilson

If visiting local wineries, we suggest a stop at the Sunset Bar & Grill located along Lake Ontario ~20 miles from the house. There is plenty of seating with marina views, and most nights a live band. The menu is diverse and includes local favorites, but best know for their steamer pots!

Cuisine - Contemporary

Location - Lockport

If visiting Lockport we suggest trying Shamus Restaurant. The Copper Top Tap Room is traditional Irish décor, and food second to none. They have a variety of homemade dishes made from scratch, source their ingredients locally, as well as cure, brine & smoked meats in-house.
