We had brunch here and I would say it was an almost perfect experience.
The negative part was just at the start when we enter the place. The podium where you would be greeted by the host was in the middle of the space instead of the front for some unknown reason. After we made it to the podium, there was no one there so we were just awkwardly standing there waiting for someone to seat us. After someone noticed us, they then needed time to set up the table. It took about 5 minutes to be seated.
After that, it was a great experience. We ordered the omelette, pancakes, and tomato soup. No complaints with the food, it was good. It came out in a timely fashion.
The lady tending to us was friendly and made sure our food was correctly made to our liking. It did seem like they were very understaffed and needed an additional person or two tending to customers.
I really like the atmosphere of this space. It's very big and beautifully decorated. I enjoyed the alien sitting on the bench near the front door. The bathroom is only a single person bathroom but it is very clean.
Overall, it was a good brunch experience and I can see myself coming back. 9/10 stars.

I came up to Buffalo from Akron, Ohio to visit with family and they recommended this restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious - perfectly seasoned. I especially loved their creative cocktails, the awesome atmosphere, and their plating presentation. It was a slight annoyance that you don't get a side when you order a sandwich, but when you do order a side, there's plenty to share. The hot chicken sandwich, french onion soup, and the smash burger were top tier! I highly recommend this restaurant.

First time at Streetlight, and we will definitely be back. I enjoyed the inviting modern ambience and our server Kat was wonderful. We got the seitan wrap and the chicken and waffles, both of which were delicious. Our drinks were unique and tasty, leaving nothing to be desired.

The new hot place to go. The kitchen is open late and the atmosphere is great. Highly recommend checking this place out. Huge projector for sports games too. Dinner or just drinks, you can't go wrong with Streetlight.

I stopped here after running errands and Nicholas made me an amazing Bloody Mary after asking me a spice level from 1-10. He recommended the grilled cheese and tomato soup and said it was his favorite and so I took his word for it and it was superb! I will definitely be returning to this beautiful establishment! Thank you Nicholas for your great service and smile.

We stopped in here after seeing a movie downtown and it was really awesome! The atmosphere was fantastic and our server Bud was so sweet and attentive. The food was really fresh and tasty. My friend said it might be the best French onion soup they've had!
We will definitely be coming back. The service was really friendly and welcoming. I recommend!
