Accompanied by potato salad that has been described as "so bomb," it’s a dish that keeps food enthusiasts coming back for more. One happy customer, LaTasha Bulluck, emphasizes the welcoming nature of the staff, particularly a sweet server named Tionne, whose charm only enhances the overall experience.

Another highlight is the Jumbo Shrimp, a dish that consistently leaves patrons raving. The generous portions and delightful sides, such as green beans, have solidified Nephew’s BBQ as a cornerstone for comfort food in Buffalo.

What sets Nephew’s apart is the ability to create a sense of belonging among diners. Christine Richardson perfectly captures this sentiment, noting how the atmosphere transforms what could be an ordinary meal into an extraordinary occasion. Guests are encouraged to unwind, enjoy a drink—like the highly recommended Precious Paradise—and soak in the vibrant community vibe.

The consistency in quality and flavor is commendable. With dishes like the Country Fried Wings and an array of salads, every item on the menu deserves its moment in the spotlight. Whether you are a first-time visitor or a seasoned regular, each trip to Nephew’s BBQ promises delicious possibilities and a warm welcome that feels like a home away from home.

My friends and I go to Nephew’s bbq every other Friday because we enjoy not only the food, but the atmosphere, the music and the service. I always get the rib dinner (compares to Lee’s Ribs on Fillmore) with potato salad (so bomb), and then add on a slice of cheesecake. For the drink, I get the Precious Paradise (it’s so fruity and delicious). Everything is great! Everyone is very welcoming! Tionne, the server is a little sweetheart and I absolutely love her! I highly recommend! We go to chill, mingle, vibe and listen to music and eat delicious food! I always look forward to my Fridays here!

This place has more great food to offer besides ribs. The haddock and shrimp fish dinner is delicious, along with the potato salad and green beans..all delectable comfort food items. Top it all off with a desert and you’ve found Buffalo’s hidden gem for true soul food!

So all I need is a pillow and comfortable chair, and I can move in forever. Not only is the food like having a home cooked meal, but staff make you feel welcomed and right at home. There is always a rib dinner with my name on it at Nephews !!

I was amazed by the atmosphere inside. Please do not let the outside deter your decision to go inside. You will not be disappointed. It is such an amazing place to take someone out for dinner, drinks or just to go and vibe out to the music and ppl there. It is very clean and the atmosphere is giving elegant and echelon. Good music, good vibes and definitely great food. I can’t even tell you how I went 3 days in a row just for the ribs and potato salad. Sooooo amazing.
