The Chandelier Bar

Always a most enjoyable time here with impeccable service and awesome specials and music. The bartender staff is always spot on and sharp and attentive. For that "upscale" get away from the sports bar nights this is an excellent choice to enjoy being catered to and have mouth watering delicious specials. The crowd is always a nice mix and the place really comes alive when the music comes-you especially gotta see Will Holton when he is here. Good time-great music and good people all around in an elegant comfortable and not intimidating setting. A can't miss night out!

Food was good. Food specials on Tuesday are $15.95. Our Sangria was $18.95.(per glass) Very pricey for something that does not cost nearly that much to make. My pasta bolognese was loaded with meat. Very tasty. My friend had Chicken Marsala. She liked it. Service was very good. All male waiters like in Europe!! I would visit again and not drink! The service and food were great. Some might like the atmosphere and decor but it's a little "much" for me. You'll know why they call it the Chandelier bar!

The bar is beautiful, the drinks are great and the staff is professional and attentive. Such an elegant, cozy place - for that reason, I give it 5 stars. Unfortunately, the night that we came (Saturday), the music did not match the otherwise great ambiance. The live music was way too loud, so much so that it was impossible to have any conversation. Once the live music ended, it got much better, until a long string of rap music started which had very offensive lyrics and made for such a disconnect from the elegance of the place that we ended up leaving early, I like all kinds of music, but I have to say that the music this night really took away from such a great place because it just did not fit the style of elegance and beauty.

Came to the bar for live music and it was amazing, it took a minute but I got a table across, service was prompt and friendly. Very quick with drinks and food, made a great suggestion when I wasn’t sure if I wasn’t pasta or steak and i was able to get both. I can’t wait to come back!!

We have gone to the Chandelier Bar for the last several years in New Year's Eve and have loved it! This year was a different story. The price gouging was unbelievable! Did you ever hear of French onion soup for $25???!!! Pasta for $85??!! We won't do that again! Such a shame. However, Nick was great!

So I’m in Buffalo for a business trip, and stay at the attached Delavan Hotel & Spa (which has a horrific free “breakfast”). Due to how terrible their breakfast is, I was scared to try the attached restaurant, but to my surprise the restaurant although the same company, is actually fantastic. First, I’m a whiskey collector, and they have some very difficult to find fine whiskies, some of which I have show in the photos. They have all vintages of pappy first off. The venue is large and beautiful, and the waitresses/bartenders are equally beautiful. the staff were fairly attentive friendly. Each night I got a different whiskey and meal, and all were great. Price isn’t low, but this is a higher end place, so that is to be expected. I feel that for the quality of the food, the price was certainly justified. I will write a separate review for the hotel as well.

Best cocktails in buffalo. If you are a bourbon lover, you MUST try their smoked old fashioned. It is the best I've ever had! Very classy place to impress family, clients or a date. We will definitely be back!

The bartenders (who also served our food) are the best. Their attentiveness and detail adds to an excellent experience from a customer service POV. We always enjoy our visits to the Chandelier Bar.

The service was great! Our server was so attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. We went on Valentine's Day so there were a lot of guests, they had candles on the tables and seating was close to your partner so I loved the ambiance and how everything was set up. Now the food, I order the full rack of Lamb, my husband ordered the prime rib steak, I lovedddd the lamb! Everything on my plate was scrumptious. But my husband wasn't as happy with his steak, I think he wanted more of a char and more seasoning on his steak. Over all I would go again for the tender lamb chops! We also shared the calamari appetizer, I'd rate it a 5/10. I wasn't impressed but the sauce they put on it was tasty.

I got to enjoy a meal from the Chandelier Bar at Salvatore's It's located inside the Delavan hotel I decided to take my food to go as my wife had taken food to go from earlier in the day The staff at the bar are super super friendly and hospitable Made it super easy to order I went with ordering the coconut shrimp The shrimp were amazing The coating on it was good enough alone and there was no need for the sweet Thai sauce I had the Steak in the Grass sandwich It comes with spinach and provolone cheese Pretty much a panini It was really tasty and good The bar itself is super classy Really nice inside and a nice vibe Definitely check this place out if you are staying a night here or want to come for a casual drink

The Chandelier Bar at Salvatore's is a beautiful bar and yes, the chandelier is magnificent. The drinks are good, the bartenders are polite and knowledgeable, but for me not a great atmosphere. It's sort of like piss elegant answer to an upper-class wine and martini-drinking dive bar. They have live music. When I was there, one man on a guitar doing some old tired-out songs with a dash of country western tossed in. I really didn't do the atmosphere of the place very well at all. It's certainly nothing compared to the bar that was in the former Salvatore's Garden. As the old Salvatore's Gardens has been replaced with the much less desirable Salvatore's Prime, I ordered lamb chops at the bar, rather than going into the boring restaurant area. I have to say my lamb chops were excellent.

Update from 2024: Sip and shuck is no more, they now do a champagne and charcuterie which is ok. 2 glasses of sparkling wine, the issue is the charcuterie board comes with only 4 toast pieces. Not enough for even half the meat and cheese. Also if you request they box it up, they don't give you the tiny jar of jam it comes with. Overall, this place has majorly gone downhill Update November, 2018: Just returned home from another amazing stay at the Delavan, which of course included spending a great night at the chandelier bar! We were lucky to see Dave again! We did the sip and shuck Saturday, spent a few hours at the bar Absolutely amazing! We were staying at the Delavan hotel so we came here prior to our dinner reservation at Salvatore Italian restaurant and it was during Friday happy hour, excellent deals on drinks! We also got 2 complimentary champagne cocktails from the front desk. Everyone we encountered here was super friendly. We returned the following night for their "sip and shuck Saturday" which has $5 champagne and $1.50 oysters. We had some champagne and oysters, served by the same wonderful man as the previous night Dave, he is a fabulous bartender. You should look for him if you're ever at the chandelier bar!

A week from this past Tuesday, November 30 was my moms birthday. To celebrate, and honor her memory I had went and ordered the Surf & Turf Tuesday night special. My first impression, when I walked into the Delevan hotel where the Chandelier bar was located, I was sad and a bit overwhelemed, as it was my first time celebrating her birthday without her. My waitress, didnt quite catch her name seemed a bit suprised when she came to take my order. Special thank you to her, for making an extremly difficult event, memorable and making me feel comfortable. My waitress, knowing I was there celebrating my moms birthday, went the extra mile and brought out a slice of cheescake and sang " Happy Birthday" , with one of the sparker style candles. I must admit, it really suprised and shocked me even made me cry. A fellow dinner, came over to check on me, and after I explained what happened, it was very kind of her to do and restored my faith in people. The food presentation, my white zinfendel selection, was perfect and overall evening ended up being remarkable.

Was there for the first time last week! Absolutely amazing staff, food was delicious & awesome Tuesday Surf & Turf deals! Will definitely be back!!!

Lobster and steak was absolutely delicious!! Definitely our go to place every Tuesday.

Came here on a Tuesday for the dinner special! ***It is first come first serve*** no wait list once you are there. You just kind of scope out the place for who is almost done. It sort of died down around 8pm if you don't mind a later meal. It is $12 and there are a decent amount of options to choose from. I asked the waitress what she recommended and went with that- prime rib French dip with truffle tots. This was soooo good. The prime rib was cooked perfect and tender. The au jus for dipping was very good and it came with a yummy horseradish cream sauce too. The truffle tots were also very good. It was a large portion for the price. My friend went with the 4oz filet. The waitress let her know it was just short of a full meal. It pairs well if you add on a lobster tail for $9. My friend wasn't very hungry so it was just enough for her. I can't wait to come on a Tuesday again and try something. It also looks like they have pretty good deals on other days too so check it out!!

This could've easily been a 5 star review, but here is some reasons why it's not. First, lets start with the good. The restaurant Chandelier is located inside the beautiful Delavan hotel and spa, which is part of Salvatores. I strongly suggest you take a moment or two, and admire the scenery. The decor and Chandeliers are amazing, truly a great introduction leading into the huge bar area. The bar is really nice and spacious, but due to Covid there is limited seating. We were told (by the bartender) that the $12 dinner special was for the bar section only. But there were no more available spots at the bar, or even seats at the side (3) tables. So we stood to the side waiting for a spot to open up. As we were looking over the menu, a waiter passing by ask if we needed help. We told him we came for the special, but was told there is no available seating in the bar area. The waiter (Noah) told us, there is a whole other section for the bar that has seating. So he took us to the table and provided us with menu's. He then went to get the waitress, that will be taking care of us. Amazing how the bartender tells us one story, and we come to find out something different. Poor communication on the bartenders behalf, but wait there's more. The new waitress comes, and ask if she can get us something to drink. Right away you can tell, this is going to be very questionable service. Why? Because she never said hello, never told us about the specials, and never gave her name. You can tell she didn't want to be on shift this day, probably because it's a dinner special night. If that's the case, tips are based off your total bill, so unlike normal nights were dinners can cost over $100-$200 easy. That isn't always the case on Tuesday nights. Now this is just my opinion, on why our waitress was acting the way she was. We ordered our food and drinks, and it all came pretty fast. The food was really good, and even though the steak (4oz) was tiny. The burger came with no, other condiments other than ketchup. My sandwich (prime rib) was missing the dip and sauce. For $12 each dinner was really good, I wouldn't hesitate to come back again. Hopefully, the service is alot better though.

Always a great experience here at Salvatores from a wonderful cocktail and long list of nice wines and bourbons to a bar menu that will certainly satisfy. You can grab an appetizer while you wait for a table and listen to the entertainment. The bar has a fun atmosphere with fancy mixologists and great vibes.

Attended this beautiful bar for Friday's happy hour, the bartenders are excellent and Make the best martinis in town. What was very disappointing was the pizza, it took almost 40 minutes before it was served and to top all of it was served cold. I miss their flat breads, the new pizza pizza needs to time themselves better and not let food sit for minutes before it is served. Maybe next time they will get it right

My boyfriend and I stayed at the Delevan and we went to the bar to use our voucher for 2 glasses of champagne. It was very good. Then we asked for a drink menu to have another drink so we didn't just use our voucher. I ordered the "pear-fection". It was very good but strong. Definitely felt a little buzz after that and was time to head out. Drinks were about 15-18 bucks on the cheaper side. Well worth it

I'm not sure how we went out for $12.00 Tuesday and spent OVER $100.00 ??? First reason is We didn't read the fine print ‼‼ the picture we saw on Facebook is NOT really what's to offer .... but the service was great , the place was clean ( you could smell the bleach) the food was filling and good . P.s my 1st time having oysters this year they were small BUT fresh ‼‼

Stopped here in between a wedding ceremony and reception. We ended up being quite a large group by the time we left, as most of the group had rooms at the hotel and joined us gradually as they checked in. The bartenders were very friendly, and put up with the somewhat rambunctious members of our group very well. I cannot lie, this was the classiest and fanciest bar I've ever been to. Most people from Buffalo know that Salvatore's is no joke, and this bar is connected to Salvatore's as part of the Delevan Hotel. Was the bar top real marble?! I can only assume. I can only give four stars, as it was expensive. However, I can appreciate and understand why. It was a cool experience, I've never felt so fancy!

We went here for the special during the weekday. The hotel lobby is very pretty with beautiful chandeliers, seating, and drink station. We walked into the bar and sat down on the corner of the bar, which was relatively comfortable, but we certainly would have rather had a seat at a table, but there were only a few in the bar. The menu looked nice, but the service was pretty poor. We were able to order our drinks, but ordering our food and getting any additional help once we ordered was a pain in the butt. It almost seemed like the our staff was avoiding us and others. I would guess that there is pretty poor management going on there, or dissatisfied wait staff. When you go to a place like this, you expect good food and good service and when that's not delivered, it's a real let down. They better step up their game.

I found out about a promotion this place was running for $12 meals on Tuesdays and decided to check it out. Anything Salvatore's is high-end and beautiful, and the Chandelier Bar is no different. The atmosphere is great. My friend and I were laughing a lot because we sat at the table on the outside of the bar and the stools were HUGE! You couldn't really move around them. We were at a table close to a wall and when I pulled the stool out it wasn't even out from under the table. It was a little awkward, but funny. Our server was really nice. His name was Nick and he make us feel so welcome and comfortable. We ordered an artichoke dip to start. It was different than other artichoke dips. It was as if the artichoke was puréed. It was okay, but I wouldn't order it again. For dinner, my friend and I both had the Lobster Mac. The topping was my favorite part. It was toasted really nicely and very yummy. The cheese sauce was really creamy and delish. The chunks of lobster were large and I was really enjoying them until I bit into a huge chunk of lobster shell. My friend said she had found one also. Over all, the $12 Tuesday meal was totally worth it, but this new part of Salvatore's might have a few litttle kinks to work out.

This place is great. I go to Friday happy hour on a weekly basis. The drinks are plentiful the staff is friendly and the food is delicious. They have happy hour specials which include 4 dollar pints and 10 dollar pizzas. The atmosphere is excellent and they have live music every week. If your looking for a nice venue after work Friday I highly recommend this place.

Ate here last Sunday with a friend. Ordered 2 lobster tails at $95 dollars each. Waited 1 and a half hours. Asked waiter what the problem was and was told they had a "problem" in the kitchen. Meals finally came out and lobster tails were slimy and raw. HORRIBLE meal. Wanted to send meals back but couldn't wait another hour. Wasted $250.00 meal. Family went to Santa brunch and had moldy French toast. Also walked out. Always was good but no more. Puke palace and pay through the nose for it.

Oh so good. Best martinis in town. It was quiet for the Bill's game. The bartenders are excellent.

I placed an online order last night and 3 times it said it couldn't verify my credit information. Then I checked my credit card statement to see it went through 3 times. So then I called the restaurant to see what was going on and the girl says they are having problems with their online ordering. She said the restaurant didn't get any of my orders, even though it appears on my credit card statement 3 times. Then when I finally ask if they can take my order over the phone she tells me since their computers are down they can not accept any orders. So you tell me I'm willing to spend over $100 and you just don't care about my business? Worst customer service ever! Will be telling all my friends and family what a horrible place this is!

We went here for the $12 special, and with drinks, an app and an upgrade, we spent $71.00. Now, I truly don't mind spending for atmosphere and excellent food, but here, we had neither. With only 4 or 5 tables, we had to sit at the bar for dinner, which I don't like. For the amount we spent It would have been nice to have had a salad or soup with dinner. Over all the service was awful. There were too few wait staff for the number of people who ended up their. Only 3 people behind the bar for all drinks and food, there were people upset standing at the bar simply to order their drinks waiting for a very long time. I can't really fault the staff they were just understaffed, and that is management's fault. My husband had the filet and lobster tail which were microscopic but very good. I had the scallops marsala over penne. I am born and bred Italian and I know good pasta, this was overcooked and mushy. If I had made this at home, I would have thrown it out and started again. I would never recommend anyone going here. It was loud, crowded and just not a good experience. We will not be back.

My 7 year old son and I had a great meal here. Prime Rib was perfect. Wine list was fantastic (drank a 2013 Prisoner). Most importantly, Russell (front of the house) and Nicholas (bar tender/server) were extremely accommodating and on top of their game. Well done.
