Cheektowaga is the second largest suburb of Buffalo, though it wasn't always so. When it was first created, it was inhabited by people known as the "Neutral People", before becoming populated by the Seneca people of the Iroquois Confederacy. The Seneca people gave this area it's name of "Chictawauga", which meant "land of the crabapples." After growing through the centuries, it developed a large Polish-American community, many of whom had relocated from Buffalo itself. It now holds the Buffalo and Niagara area's largest mall, the Walden Galleria.

Mister Dee's is the only place you should go if you are looking for some outstanding Beef on Weck. Not only that, but this is one of the very few places where you can order the roast beef medium rare to medium. This place is clean and you wouldn't feel bad about bringing grandma along... and only slightly bad for leaving her behind.
