    Jack Rabbit is a funky and friendly music and food venue in Buffalo’s Elmwood Village. The food is eclectic and varied. There is something for everyone including some vegan choices. The wait staff is friendly and attentive The staff behind the bar are experienced and friendly. The live music throughout the week reflects the local Buffalo music scene. Enjoy!

    Prices are very fair. Service wasn’t great but adequate. My avocado toast was perfection however my eggs were cold. Our server rushed us along which was disappointing as we were celebrating a family member’s birthday. Never offered dessert. We did not appreciate this. It appears this establishment wants patrons in and out.

    First time visit. Wasn’t sure what to expect. The space is unique to say the least with a split level dining room. I’d request downstairs if we go again. Kind of a modern speakeasy feel. Staff was attentive but not pesky. Food was on point. Simple menu mostly from scratch. Cocktails are on point as well. IMO it’s worth a try if you haven’t been-

    First time visit was outstanding. While waiting for a friend bartending staff was very attentive offering pre-look of menu and drink listing. Upon arrival of my friend staff was quick to respond. As for the reservation process Maddy was exceptional as for getting our reservation processed and to a table ASAP. She also was our server for dinner and was onto of everything from beginning to end. If you only one chance to make a first impression Jack Rabbit knocks it out of the park! You won't be disappointed!

    Food was delish, don't skip the beignets! Table behind had an obnoxiously loud guest which was quite distracting. Server was fantastic and very patient with all of our "side of this" and "extra that" orders.

    Food and service was excellent. Only issue was how loud the area we were sitting in as the band was setting up. Made it hard to speak with my guest…
