AAA Western and Central New York is proud to announce its Four Diamond restaurant winners! Three restaurants in the Western and Central New York region have been awarded the prestigious distinction of Four Diamond status.

Restaurants at this level offer a distinctive fine-dining experience and attentive service, according to AAA. Menu offerings are distinguished by highly creative chefs using top-quality ingredients and an upscale ambience. Only 656 restaurants throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean hold the AAA Four Diamond Rating. That’s just two percent of the nearly 32,000 restaurants inspected by AAA annually.

Properties recognized in the AAA WCNY region include:

• Oliver’s Restaurant, Buffalo (2017)
• The Kitchen, Pittsford (2017)
• Wildflowers at Turning Stone Resort Casino (2006)

“AAA is pleased to recognize these establishments as Four Diamond restaurants,” said Carol DiOrio, vice president of travel at AAA WCNY. “To uphold the exceptional standards required to attain this rating is an outstanding achievement. AAA Four Diamond restaurants go above and beyond, delivering memorable dining experiences.”

All Four Diamond properties (hotels and restaurants) in the WCNY region will be recognized by AAA WCNY at a private reception in April. Full details will be supplied to the media.
