Good restaurants to try

In the past week my daughter and I tried out a couple of restaurants we had never been to before.

Uncle Joe's Diner in Hamburg is a '50's style diner with really good food and enormous portions. They have a variety of comfort foods including salads, wraps, burgers, sandwiches, wings, and home cooked diners like rotisserie chicken, roast beef, roast turkey with stuffing, and Joe's home-made meatloaf. They also serve pasta and seafood dishes. I had the hamburger, which in our opinion, was the best burger we ever tasted! My daughter had the chicken fingers, which were also very good.

We ate at Salsarita's Cantina last night, a Mexican chain restaurant, which has 80 locations in 17 states. There are three location in the Buffalo area: 110 W. Chippewa in Buffalo, 3901 Union Road in Cheektowaga, and 4375 Transit Road in Clarence. Menu items include burritos, quesadillas, tacos, nachos, Mexican pizza, and salads. Everything is made to order. I had a chicken quesadillas and my daughter had a salad in one of those big shells. Both were very good.
