Charlie the Butcher's Kitchen, located in Williamsville, NY, is a culinary gem specializing in the iconic Buffalo dish, beef on weck. Customers rave about the tender, juicy roast beef served on fresh kummelweck rolls, complemented perfectly by zesty horseradish. According to patrons like J White and Rorie Merz, this eatery consistently delivers a mouthwatering experience, making it a must-visit for anyone craving authentic Buffalo flavors.

Aside from the standout beef on weck, diners also warm up to the smoky char-grilled burgers and delicious sides, particularly the German potato salad. Missy vouches for the welcoming staff and the comforting atmosphere, while Dave Mariani suggests it’s better than what you'd find at more renowned spots such as the Anchor Bar.

What truly sets Charlie the Butcher’s Kitchen apart is the combination of quality ingredients and attentive service. With the option to enjoy your meal outdoors, it becomes a delightful stop whether you are a local or just passing through. Be sure to arrive early, as demand can outstrip supply. Highly recommended for a flavorful and satisfying meal experience!

As usual, the food was great. The only disappointing times I've had there is when I've arrived after all the roast beef for the day has already been served. My selection today was a traditional beef on weck, onion rings and a chocolate shake. The roast beef was lean, moist and flavorful, on a fresh and flavorful kummelweck roll (into which I piled the horseradish), the onion rings hot and plentiful and the chocolate shake thick and chocolatey. It's my go to order here with the only disappointment only being when I'm not able to order! Highly recommend (unless I'm headed there that day!)

If you are looking for the hands down best beef on weck in Buffalo this is the place I've had a few of these sandwiches in other places and did see what all the hype was about with beef on weck. Untill I had it here.....wow so tender and juicy and the horseradish puts the whole thing over the top Also got a char grilled Burger and a brot with krout and peppers which were both super smokey and delicious. Should have traded in the hamburger bun for a weck roll...maybe next time The chocolate shake and fries were also fantastic. Fun location by the airport if you sit outside. This is going to be the ONLY place I get beef on weck!

I've had Charlie the Butcher's Beef on Weck a couple of times in the past and always enjoyed it. Our most recent visit to the Williamsville location lived up to our expectations. The beef is tender and delicious. The salt and caraway seeds on the weck bun really complement the flavor of the meat. I prefer a bit of horseradish with the sandwich, and there's plenty available if you prefer it. We'll be back!

This little place had an amazing staff, and wonderful food! Ordered Beef on weck and German potato salad and it was delicious! P.S. I couldn't resist a couple bites before snapping a picture. :)

If you are ever near the Buffalo Airport this the place to go. Skip Airport food and go here. Unbelievable beef on weck. Freshly carved beef. Au jour is fantastic.

Charlie the Butcher is a long standing establishment in the Buffalo area serving wonderful sliced meat sandwiches, tasty sides and wonderful desserts such as pies, brownies and cookies. My main selections are roast beef on weck, the combo turkey and roast beef sando or the prime rib sando. All these sandwiches are amazing and delicious. The service is standard. You wait in line to place your order and pay around the corner. You have the options to dine in or take out. On a nice summer day take your meal outside and eat on one the picnic tables they have available. This place is a solid 4.5 out of 5 stars. It's due for a face lift on the inside or else the score would be 5.

I haven't been here for over 10 years but the place hasn't changed! Best luck spot in the area, and when you go, you must get the Beef on Weck! Charlie is the King!
