I have been to Shango many times, as I am lucky enough to have it in my neighborhood. The food is outstanding, I can't think of anything I wouldn't order. A friend told me that the steak she had there was THE BEST steak she had ever eaten (and she's a major carnivore!) The menu provides enough variety to please... more

This is absolutely our favorite restaurant! Shango...BEST cuisine around. Small, cozy, candels, rarely a wait...great restaurant. I can't think of something I've had there that wasn't amazing. My favorite...for only $14 ...the blackened steak po'boy with coleslaw and unbelieveable sweet potato fries with honey and butter. Make sure you add a beer...my suggestions...the Sam Smith Porter or La Fin Dumond.... more

Found Shango on Tripadvisor and had to see what the hype was about. Went last night and had an incredible dinner. The "New Orleans" atmosphere is soothing and the service was superb.

We enjoyed our meal at Shango and would return. The food was well prepared and the service was very attentive. more

We visit Buffalo a couple of times of year and have tried to find a unique dining experience but often ended up at the most typical chain restaurants. We have finally found it!!!! I would highly recommend reservations. We didn't have one, but they accomodated us in the bar area- which was quite nice too! My dad must eat gluten... more

Never had a gumbo like the one they make there. Every dish was exquisite. They had one of the best deals for restaurant week in Buffalo, allowing you to taste a full course meal for just $20! The ambiance is also very different. It's not like many restaurants in Buffalo. For some reason, I felt transported to somewhere social, relaxed... more
