Bob & John’s La Hacienda

Bob & John’s La Hacienda has been a fixture on North Buffalo’s Hertel Avenue since the late 1950s and is believed to be the busy street’s longest operating restaurant. The Hazelet family has owned it since 1972, and current operator Tom Hazelet completed an extensive refresh in 2024. Known for crispy wings, cup-and-char pepperoni pizzas and hard-to-beat value, the sit-down restaurant offers a welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere with a patio, bar and incredible daily specials, like $5 all-you-can-eat spaghetti.
