Bill Takeout - EAST AURORA

Timely prepared, little pricy but you get good portions so it balances it out. Best chicken fingers I have ever had, I got the cajun honey butter bbq flavor.

We are in Buffalo a few times a year. The wings are the best here as is the Beef on Weck. Great lively atmosphere and very cozy!

Bar Bill tavern has a great tavern atmosphere. The bar itself is small, but very efficient. The beef on wick is outstanding. Weck is for caraway seed. The best way w describe the role is kind of like a kaiser roll. Topped with caraway seeds in salt Absolutely delicious. Thinly sliced roast beef is piled high on roll. Dipping au jus on the side. The Buffalo wings are crispy, juicy and very tasty. This is a locals favorite and a must for visitors.

We come out to Buffalo from Syracuse a few times a year, and we usually try to get Buffalo centric stuff while we're there. The place we had planned to go this time was closed unexpectedly, so we scrambled and found this place searching for good food recommendations. Beef on Weck, pizza and wings sounded perfect.We originally went for the one in Clarence, but it seems like they don't do take out? The next closest was here in East Aurora, and they had the option to take our order over the phone. We parked by the gas station and I walked up to the bar to get the food, but they have a separate pick up spot like two buildings over on the backside. Way better parking situation back there... now we know.We went with the beer battered fries, but it was a toss up between... all of them. They don't do beer cheese for to go orders, so we got them plain with ketchup and ate them on the way home. Maybe they're more crisp when they come out, but they had lost their beer battered texture and were mostly soft when we ate them. Still a great deal for $4.50.The Beef On Weck sandwiches were the best we've ever had. Tons of very tender beef, fresh, soft bread. The horseradish was just the right level of potent where you could pile it on for a kick without blasting your sinuses.Having said that, (and sorry if this tanks the credibility of my review), every time I eat these things I feel like something's missing. Maybe it's because I grew up going to places like Clark's in Syracuse where they are loaded with mustard, or cheddar on an onion roll. The Au Jus helps, but your whole flavor profile is just additives. Caraway, course salt, plain horseradish with plain beef. The Au Jus is the most flavorful part of the sandwich. We made horsey sauce at home and thought they were infinitely better with it. (Don't hurt me, Buffalo.)We ordered the Beef On Weck pizza because it was the first time we've ever seen it, and it had great reviews. I think we would have fared better with the chicken wing or pepperoni. We loved everything about the texture and density of the pizza. Crispy crust without being too dry or crunchy. It's all got a heavy feel to it, and was pretty filling for a 10 pizza. The dough had a fresh homemade kind of whole wheat taste to it. There wasn't really much horseradish, and it was topped with the same beef from the sandwiches. Again, cooked absolutely fall apart tender, but that alone (along with the kummelweck seasoning) didn't make a complete pizza. If the other pizzas have these same qualities, I'm sure they're an absolute home run.By far, the best part of this meal though was the wings. We always go with the hottest up front, because far too many places who claim to ramp up the heat seem to be catering to people who don't eat spicy foods at all. I'm not much of a masochist myself just for reference, my comfort level sits just above Taco Bell fire sauce. So when we heated these wings up and started to tear up, we realized we might actually have the real deal here. After eating one, it was one of the best wings I've ever had... and then the fire started and I had to take a break. I probably wouldn't eat food much hotter than this, but this was right on the border between adventure and abuse. I can swing that, but I'll need some tissues to blow my nose and maybe cry it out. When the fire died down, I tried one of the lemon pepper wings, and then immediately had another. I had to cut myself off after the third one so my girlfriend could have some. I don't know how they compare to other wings in Buffalo, but top tier against the many wings we've tried in Syracuse. The meat had this extra fatty texture, but was ordered (and beautifully delivered) extra crispy. Their bleu cheese is also the absolute best.This was a great meal and we're glad we chose this place. The only downside was the price, coming in at about $74 for whole lot. I'd recommend anybody do it once, but I probably wouldn't go again at that

This is a very special Buffalo/WNY restaurant in the sense that it is known not only for having some of the best wings in the region but also for having one of the best beef on wecks in the region as well. Let me tell you that its pretty darn difficult to find a place that does both WNY culinary specialties just right but this place has it down. For instance my favorite wing joint in the area, Gabriel 's Gate (see review), doesn 't even serve beef on weck while some of the more well known beef on weck places in the area like Charlie the Butcher and Schwabl 's don 't do wings. So, with that said when you come here you 're ordering yourself a beef on weck and a ton of whatever flavor(s) of wings fit your taste. Fun fact: my Godmother 's cousins were the original owners of this place way back in the day. Their names were Barb and Bill Corzelius and the combination of their first names is where the name Bar Bill comes from. I just had to throw that little tidbit in their to make all of the other Buffalo foodies jealous that I have a connection to the origins of one of the best wing and beef on weck restaurants to ever grace the business. The service is always really slow here and normally I would be inclined to take a star off for that but the food here is just so good that they are one of the few restaurants to get a free pass on their slow service. Definitely don 't show up and expect to be out in a hurry. The ambiance is of a small town old school corner pub where everybody knows your name. This place is legendary and the food is just so so so GOOD. I can 't complain about them not being centrally located because lets face it some of the best restaurants are located in the middle of nowhere however, they did recently open up a second location in Clarence which has since taken off in popularity. Raise your glass: Long live the Bar Bill!
