The Left Bank

We came on a Sunday evening without reservations and surprisingly got a table for two in the bar area.
Service was excellent, the food and drinks were delicious, and the experience was rememberable.
We’re liking forward to returning again soon.

I called a week out and made reservations for my dad's birthday, and the earliest available was 7:30pm, which worked out. We were seated pretty fast.  We ordered at 750pm and did not get out food until 8:45pm.  Also we didn't finish until 9:45pm.
Long service.  I ordered the halibut, which was severely undercooked.  Maybe they rushed it because we were waiting so long, but that's no excuse. When I showed the waitress she apologized and they made me a new one.  It was good.
I enjoyed the miso glaze on it, which was salty with a touch of sweetness.
I ordered a side of rice as the waitress recommended.  I tried my dad's carrot pappardelle, and it was good.
It had lobster, shrimp, and crab meat with it. My uncle had penne with calamari and the calamari was very tasty.
Light breading, which was seasoned with a hint of spice.  Overall, my food was good, minus the raw halibut.
My brother had the salmon and he tried my halibut and said the halibut was better. I gave this restaurant 2 stars due to the atmosphere and how it was handled.  One table was about 10 people, and they were yelling and laughing the whole time.
Really inconsiderate of others around them.
The only time we could hear each other speak was when they were eating.  When the table was finally leaving, they were rude to my aunt, and it was uncalled for.  It felt like it was their first time at a nice restaurant, and they did not know how to act.  The type to pay rent but have their financial priorities in the wrong areas.
They continued being loud even after they left the dining area.
Our waitress apologized, but to me, that wasn't enough.
They should have been asked to leave, especially since they were just standing at the exit for at least 10-15 minutes being loud on purpose.
The staff acknowledged this behavior and apologized to us but did nothing to rectify it. If I were a restaurant manager/owner, I wouldn't let anyone disrespect any other guests.
To me, it felt like they cared more about them because of the size of their party compared to ours.
More money from them than us.
Also, they did mention that table also worked in the restaurant industry, so they knew them. A lot of people take my advice on where to eat and unfortunately I'm not going to be able to recommend this restaurant.  Word of mouth is important, and not only did they lose us for future services, but they will lose countless more.  I've been to a lot of restaurants, and rarely do I give a low rating.
To me, the food and the service are equally as important. Due to the atmosphere, how long the food took to come out, and the undercooked fish, I doubt I'd come back.
With so many great restaurants in Buffalo such as Mother's, Hutch's, Mulberry, Gabriel's Gate, etc, I see no reason to. They did take off the halibut and my dad's dessert off the bill.
Instead of being a great night for my father's 78th birthday, it turned out to be the opposite.
I asked him where he wanted to go for dinner, and he asked me to choose, for this I take responsibility.
I will make it up to him elsewhere as he deserves only the best.

First time here about two weeks ago and it was so worth it.
The BEST Salmon I ever had, could taste the many flavors added.
The fried calamari was also great and luv the extra horseradish in the sauce.
Will definitely be back!
