Jas, I think you might be right. I recently saw a request for signage for a mexican restaurant on one of the Common Council Committee meetings agendas, but that was some time ago and since there has been no look of forward progress, that might have also gone by the wayside.
Unfortunate, indeed, since the area is in need of additonal food places, especially considering the number of employees, etc, with the Medical Campus so close, and the redevelopment of the North St/Main St area.
I believe 'twas meant to be humor Steel. There were many a negative comment before about the Delta sonic not being a good fit for the area, but it does serve a need. So relax a moment, and continue the good fight as you always have.
all the preservationist/progress blockers must be pissed at you right now. BUT i agree the food is very good there!!
CommercialGuy-
I personally can't really find fault with anyone willing to develop anything on Main south of Hertel. Of course saving beautiful old buildings is a great and important thing, but sometimes new buildings can be an assett as well. Especially if they serve good, affordable food! I'm also glad to see the amount of people that are spending their lunch hour on this often desolate stretch of Main.
Happy Eating!
Viking- I think you meant to say "convenience" not connivence unless Dick Cheney eats there when in Buffalo.
I ate lunch at the Sonic Cafe in the recent past and was pleasantly surprised by both the quality of the food and the very comfortable modern interior. The place was very busy. Obviously, not your average gas station.
This section of Main Street is really looking up!
the Sonic Cafe is the bomb...the only brick oven pizza in the City of Buffalo. It's an excellent place to meet-up and explore the emerging Midtown neighborhood right across the street and behind the soon to be coolest spot in town, Artspace...neighborhood tours on Saturday's at 11am!!!
Given the resources available to Bflo's biggest developer, I would be disappointed in less than excellent. Connivence is the major possible draw, great food, only if less fortunate places offering similar fare is not available, if not for anything but to support diversity. Benderson can summons the best and should, their locations and other attributes draws enough traffic.
Delta Sonic has the best turkey and prime rib i have had in along time. The turkey is cooked with such care and is served well unlike other places Delta Sonic is well organized and clean. The pizza is to die for and if I had a choice I would eat there everyday.
I took my last date here.....she was impressed.........................with the food.
What happened to the Quiznos at the corner of Main and North St. that was being built? They must have backed out .
And not one wisecrack about eating there and getting gas. I am sooo disappointed. Am I the only juvenile sense of humor left in this world? But it is nice to see all venues covered in BRO. Thanks Christa!
Jefferson thank you for the correction, that Dick might eat there, it's a great place to clean up- an image.
