Vizzi's

My favourite burger joint! Ever! And the fish fry is to die for. Love this place. I tell everyone to get to Vizzi's. Hope I get to come back someday.

August 11, 2519. Vizzi’s came back the same day as our astronauts. we could all tell neither were quite the same. We couldn’t put our finger on it; in some small ineffable quality we sensed a dark brooding power had seeded in our beloved neighborhood bar and grill. don’t get me wrong; we all enjoyed our usual Wednesday monster burger and Friday fish fry, and bought cocaine from the St Joe’s boys after school most weekdays. But something felt wrong; slightly askew.nnMaybe it was the coming of the hooded figures. Maybe the creeping dread that consumed us as we quit our jobs and shambled tirelessly from our cardboard lean-tos down Kenmore Avenue, moaning “$2.50 PBR”. Maybe it was the fact that all nearby businesses were bought up by a mysterious shadow entity. A gradual change does not have the power to traumatize; it crept in like weather, like the change of seasons. When The Day came, it was as though it had always been The Day.nnThat day, the sky was low and grey like a Japanese table. We stood like zombies at a 4:30am methadone clinic, groaning outside the doors, awaiting our Tuesday beef on weck when all 25,000 of us simultaneously realized IT WAS BACK. The unlicensed Flintstones mural shone on the east facing wall, in full orange and teal. It’s luminosity increased until its image was burned permanently into our retinas. Fred’s eyes smoldered with a consuming hunger. We reflexively began to worship the mural, to worship Vizzi’s. Though it’s liquor license expired centuries ago on November 30th 2019, the $2.50 PBR held us fast like the afflicted servants of darkness we had become. At opening time, 11:00am, we few thousand wheeled around as a single mind and went forth under the dead eyes of hooded Vizzi’s overlords. First North Buffalo, then Erie County, then the mid Atlantic states, we conquered this land in a slow, bloodless revolution fueled by $2.50 PBR and zeal for our new God, who we knew only as Melvin Vizzi. Progress was slow, a broken-legged walking pace. Oceans and forests slowed us but did not prevent eventual victory. The final holdouts in North Korean tunnels and some Amazonian villages fell the same day in 2026 and we claimed this world for Vizzi’s. Finally, Melvin Vizzi held exclusive rights to the image and likeness of Fred Flintstone.nnLiquor license or not, we billions of lurching figures drink our 12.5 ounces of PBR a day. Of course, we are now immortal. Twelve populated worlds now belong to Melvin Vizzi, our Lord, our king. We possess two star systems so far, and our vanguard is rapidly approaching a third.nnWe arrive soon. Don’t be alarmed, don’t bother resisting. It is a better world now. Vizzi’s is open.

This is for all the ridiculous comments on the Buffalo News

Love it amazing food great bands! Check out Big Sauce Trio! Very talented group drummer was the best I have ever seen!

OUTSTANDING MENU from top to bottom. All the portions are big and tasty. The best burger in Buffalo. Get it plain, or anyway. ALL GOOD. I like mine cajun, with crumbly bleu. Right behind that is their banana peppers. The service is always great too. Cash only and worth every cent.
