I went looking for a ring at a bunch of different places. Took my girlfriend with me to help get some ideas. We decided to check out Ben Garelick and I am so glad I did. We met Peter Sr. He was such a nice guy and a pleasure to work with. My girlfriend was so pleased after we left. I could tell that we found the perfect place and the perfect ring. I immediately went back myself and talked with Peter and he was more than willing to work with me. He was very friendly and so were the other staff. I will definitely come back for other jewelry purchases. I highly recommend this place for anyone that is looking for an engagement ring. Or even just beautiful jewelry with great customer service.

Amazing service, ended up walking in and picking out a ring on my first visit! The staff is very friendly, and being able to shop local while still getting a great deal was definitely a plus. (also there is a cute dog, and free chocolate!)

I searched quite a few jewelers before I walked into Ben Garelick. I didn’t feel like a customer or just another sale. Peter made me feel right at home and helped me make the most important purchase seem easy. He was kind and professional. All of the ladies and gentleman that work there were helpful and courteous. I will definitely be shopping with them in the future for all my jewelry needs. Thank you Peter!

I went to Ben Garelick to see about getting a family ring resized and customized. My ring was ready in a week and could not be more perfect. It’s exactly what I wanted, and the price was great too! I wouldDefinitely recommend this jeweler to anyone in the market for jewelry as well as jewelry repair.

I wasn’t sure what to expect ordering online, but all I can say is wow!!!! I never leave reviews but felt I had to in this case. My ring was sized and shipped the same day and the price was unbelievable. The ring is stunning!! I would recommend this jeweler a thousand times over!

Went here recently to looking to purchase a gift for my wife, found an absolutely beautiful necklace that was very reasonable priced. She loved it!!! Then we came back to do some ring resizing and they were fantastic to work with. They completed the repairs, cleaned up the rings, and finished it all a week earlier than they had planned.Overall, they have been great to work with, their selection of jewelry is beautiful, and I would definitely recommend them! I will be going back again, thats for sure!

I purchased a beautiful necklace for my wife, it was for our 25th wedding anniversary. I have been purchasing jewelry even when they were located in downtown Buffalo some 25 yrs ago and I’m never disappointed, they have the most professional and courteous staff you could ask for. They always have a great selection in store and also on line at great pricing.I would highly recommend using them for any jewelry purchases. I don’t think you could find any friendlier staff anywhere

We brought a ring that was my wife’s grandmothers in for repair and sizing. It turned out great! My daughter wears it now. Fits well, and looks great. We have been loyal customers since I bought my wife’s engagement ring 24 years ago. Always on time with repairs / adjustments and highest quality jewelry. Thanks again!

Patricia provided wonderful service. She really listened to my questions and offered several very good options. The prices were quite reasonable as well. She took good care of me—and my wife loved the necklace! I highly recommend Ben Garelick Jewelers. I will be back in the future for sure.

Thank you so much, Peter! My daughter is getting married and I wanted to add 22 pearls to her add-a-pearl necklace as a special gift for her bridal shower. Not only did Peter guide me in the process with confidence, he made suggestions that enhanced the beauty of the finished product. I needed the necklace completed within a two week period and Peter made that happen. I will definitely be returning, for my future jewelry needs!

Patti at Ben Garelick was great to work with! There was a loose stone in my ring (purchased from another jeweler) and they were happy to repair it for me very quickly and with the most assurance. All other employees were very warm as well, wanting to make your experience the best and I never felt pushed into a purchase. Highly recommend seeing Patti and her team!

I would highly recommend Ben Garelick Jewelers. I dropped off my 16-year old wedding ring to be cleaned and replated and they did an excellent job. It looked identical to how it did the day I got married. It made my hand glow again! They were professional and quick with the repair. I loved the texts to let me know when it was ready. My husband and I are so happy we bought my ring at Ben’s!

Recently purchased a tennis bracelet from Ben Garelick. It is exquisite! It makes me feel special. Have been a customer for nearly 40 years and Peters expertise is phenomenal. Once you have the best, how can you settle for anything less. The clasp was a challenge to operate and every effort was made to rectify this issue. I am the owner of a beautiful bracelet that makes me feel young again. Now that is priceless. Thanks Ben Garelick for selling such incredible jewelry.

I got my wedding and engagement rings at Ben Garelick Jewelers from Peter Sr. I continue to have my ring cleaned and serviced as it is my most important piece of jewelry. Not only is my set of rings/diamonds stunning, I repeatedly receive compliments on them, which of course makes me feel good! I will always tell people where my rings came from as I know Ben Garelick jewelers always to be high quality. Not every jeweler is cut from the same stone! Always so professional and kind, its a joy to stop in. Im in the market for some earrings now! Thank you to everyone at Ben Garelick!

Peter and staff are incredible. Both my fiancé and I customized engagement rings for each other. We worked with Peter to get the specific design we wanted and he responded timely with a drawing of what it would look like, worked within our budget, and was very knowledgeable throughout the process! I definitely recommend them to anyone who is just looking or even those who do have an idea in mind. Everyone we worked with was friendly and very personable! We will definitely be back for future purchases.

My go to for all of my jewelry repairs, especially my Pandora pieces. No repair is too difficult for them. They take the time to understand your wishes to ensure they get the repair to your liking.

I needed to get my wedding rings re-sized and didn’t want to trust them to some chain store. I had been to the Ben Garelick Jeweler’s downtown YEARS ago and so decided to give them a try. I’m so glad I did! They were great to work with and my rings were sized quickly.While I was there, I also looked at some anniversary rings. Peter was wonderful! He was very helpful and patient and and urged me to try on whatever I wanted, without any pressure to buy. He also provided me his email to send him any other rings I’d be interested in. Peter was able to get a sample of the ring I liked as well as a few others that he thought I might like based on what I had already selected.I could go on and on about how much we enjoyed our experience with Ben Garelick Jeweler’s. Their expertise is exactly why we chose to go there versus a chain store. I highly recommend them!

What can you say about a jewelry store where you arrive right at closing time and the owner stays open an extra 20 minutes to help you pick out a perfect pick-me-up gift for a girlfriend whos had a bad day? Ben Garelick Jewelers is that kind of place. Its classy and refined, which is helpful when so many other local jewelers tend toward the garish. Its not for everyone--if elegant and tasteful isnt your thing, then you might want to go to a mall jewelry store instead. But if youre buying jewels for someone whose looks are classical and classy, whose demeanor is regal or graceful, and who deserves only the best this side of Tiffanys? You wont regret visiting this store. Ever.

It was a great experience!!! Traded in earrings I had gotten there 6 months earlier for a larger size. Ben Garelick put into the new earrings exactly what I paid for the previous pair. My wife was extremely happy with the quality of the new pair and I was extremely pleased by how helpful and easy the experience was. I will always go back to Ben Garelick to purchase whatever jewelry I need in the future.

Our 45th wedding anniversary (sapphire) is coming up later this month. I was looking for gift idea for my husband who loves golf. Imagine my surprise when I found golf balls imprinted with a sapphire emblem from Ben Garelick Jewelers! Such a fun, unique gift! They look great & arrived very quickly. I highly recommend Ben Garelick!

Its always a pleasure to do business with Garelick Jewelers. Mr. Manka, Peter Jr., Jennifer and Patti are warm, welcoming and knowledgeable. Every one of our transactions whether a large order or small service request is treated with the same care and attention. We had a great time working with Brian, the designer, on a custom ring order that turned out beautifully, way above our expectations! Everyone was involved in some way and the shared experience was fun and exciting. My wife and I look forward to continuing our relationship with this outstanding company.

Fantastic family owned business that cares about their customers. My sales rep was Peter Sr. and you can tell he is a lot of knowledge. Has a good sense of humor that makes the ring selection process feel much easier. It is a no pressure environment they’re not calling you or trying to make you purchase something before you walk out. And that is what made me want to come to this jeweler! Very pleased

This company went WAY above and beyond what I needed!I was looking to replace my wedding ring that I lost snorkeling in Hawaii. It will be 10 years in Feb. I had little hope that ArtCarved still made or had my ring. After finding it I had a difficult time locating anyone locally who could order it into their store. The other Ben jeweler (br**ge) could but we’re charging about $500 above ArtCarved retail price.Finally came across Ben Garelick and reached out through their chat support. Peter helped me and figured out what item I wanted and had it added to their website within minutes for me to process my order! I was so stoked that I found it and for a GREAT price! Ordered it and had it in hand in about 10 days. I am in WA state and was very great foul of this amazing NY companies help!!

We’ve been going to Ben Garelick for a few years now. The staff is always professional, patient and helpful. Most recently we had them repair the clasp on our sons chain. This chain is about 19 years old. Ben Garelick was able to repair it without any problems, and return it to us within five days. Plus they cleaned and polished my wife’s rings for free! We highly recommend visiting Ben Garelick for all you jewelry needs.

I seriously wish I could give TEN stars for Ben Garelick Jewelers because my experience there was truly amazing!!!! My husband and I went in to have the stone in my engagement ring upgraded for my 20th Wedding Anniversary. From the start Peter Sr took such great care to go over options with us and I appreciated that he wanted to make sure that we both would be happy with our purchase. The process was easy and the whole staff there is wonderful. When we picked my ring up my jaw dropped at how STUNNING it was. I am so happy with how it turned out!!! I seriously haven’t taken it off !!! If you are looking for a jeweler I highly recommend Ben Garelick. You will not be disappointed.

My family and I have been going to Ben Garelick Jewelers for many years now and I would not go anywhere else! They are fantastic! Every time you enter, you’re greeted with a warm smile that makes you feel right at home. They have a great selection to choose from and if they don’t have what you’re looking for, they will help you create it or find it! My wife and I couldn’t be happier with our wedding bands that Peter Jr. helped us pick out and her engagement ring that Peter Sr. Helped create! They walked us through it and it was a truly enjoyable process! We cannot thank them enough!

Wow! Ben Garelick Jewelers knocked it out of the park! Peter Manka, Jr., with whom I did all of my business with, is simply outstanding all around. He and Ben Garelick delivered the engagement and wedding rings of my fiancees dreams (and met my very high expectations).I found Ben Garelick through an exhaustive online search for Jewelers and even though there is great geographic separation between us (I live in California) they have been exceptionally responsive and transparent about every detail of our transactions. I purchased a stone through Blue Nile and had it shipped to them. Peter stepped me through the entire process, entirely through email, and the result was perfect. He applied a discount without me even asking. I highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for service, quality and great selection. Their contacts are numerous and they are well connected. Top notch outfit.

My husband and I are absolutely happy with the service that we have received from Ben Garelick Jewelers. I had my diamond engagement ring pointed and cleaned. When we came to pick the items up, they even offered to clean my husbands gold ring. The work on my Wedding - engagement ring was excellent . It looked like new - even though my rings are nearly 65 years old and my husbands ring was 30 yrs. old. The little kindnesses extended to us by the staff was such a homey touch --- coffee or tea ----- chocolate candy. It made you feel like you stopped into a friends home. I have never received such a comfortable welcome at another Jewelers shop. Ben Garelicks Jewelers are more than professional-----they are welcoming and friendly!!

This is my second time ordering from Peter and the team at Ben Garelick and cannot fault their service. Peter is extremely helpful and that is the only reason I would always look to purchase from them before going elsewhere. I am based in the UK and on both occasions Ben Garelick have gone above and beyond to ensure I went away as a happy customer and received the jewellery on a timely basis. Would not hesitate to recommend and look forward to my next purchase, hopefully in person!

I have gone to Ben Garelick Jewelers many times because of the personal assistance. I went this time to enhance and customize my wifes engagement ring from 28 years ago. Peter was a great help.

We purchased both our wedding bands and my fiancé bought my engagement ring at Ben Garelick and it was a great experience. All the staff that we worked with were great from start to finish. I didn’t like the standard band that matched the ring and they worked with me to create the band I wanted. The had little extras like the knew I was being proposed to at night and gave my fiancé a box with a light and offered him a choice of a bottle of champagne or box of sponge candy to surprise me with. You can tell it’s a family run business and they care about everyone that comes through the door.

My now fiancé and I went in here after checking out another local jeweler that didn’t carry rings in our style. Walking in here was exactly the right thing for us. We planned on just perusing styles to give him ideas, but after speaking with Peter, we decided on a ring together. Peter was so wonderful and encouraging. He pushed us to make the right decision for us and answered all of our questions!If you want a simple ring or something unique, they have both and everything in between here. And the method Peter used to have us select a ring was so much fun! And I can now say it came out absolutely perfect!Whether you are looking for ideas, for THE ring, or any kind of jewelry I highly recommend going to Ben Garelick. There’s a reason why it has so many 5 star reviews! Thank you - April & Cormick

I was searching the wonderful Ben Garelick website in search of a new ring for my wife’s 60th birthday and came across the Simon G 2711 setting. Simple G is an exclusive brand and carried by a few reputable jewellers. Decided on a 3.7 carat stone for the Center. Peter Jr. negotiated a fair price with me and had it delivered to my home phone Florida within a week. The transaction was very professional and seamless. Would highly recommend this store to anyone.My wife is over the moon and absolutely love her ring.Nick

Ben Garelick jewelers did a great job of resizing my wedding ring to a larger size. It fits perfectly now and it looks like nothing was even done to it!

I had nothing but a positive experience buying from Ben Garelick. I wasnt sure how easy it would be to be able to purchase an engagement ring in the middle of the pandemic but Peter and his colleagues were very communicative and easy to work things out with. I was very eager to propose and since it was going to take a few weeks to get the platinum ring they were very kind to mail out a loaner sample the exact same style and size (just in white gold) along with a matching wedding band for her to look at. Once they received our platinum ring they sent it out right away and emailed a packing slip for me to mail back the other rings, making sure of all these details over text the whole time. It is such a beautiful ring with exquisite metalwork and detail! Thank you to all the jewlers who helped make an unforgettable experience and a true bright spot of joy amidst these less than ideal times!

I was away from WNY for over 20 years and was delighted to see Ben Garelick Jewelers was still in the area. I ventured in one day several weeks back and was thrilled with their selection of fine jewelry. I unintentionally spoiled myself with the help, knowledge, and patience of Patti. Having strolled in several times since, I am always greeted by name and with smiles from every person in the building. They earned my trust early on and I have since completed additional business with this jeweler. What can I say? A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!

I worked with both Peter Jr and Sr while purchasing an engagement ring. Garelick Jewelers was by far the easiest work with out of the 3 or 4 jewelers we went to. Peter Sr. was incredibly knowledgeable, guided us without pushing us, and educated us every step of the way. After going to Garelick, we visited a few other stores, and none of them came close to the level of help and friendliness, so we went right back to Peter and made our purchase.I will be doing 100% of my jewelry shopping at Ben Garelick Jewelers from now on.

In December 2019 I proposed to my wife now, with the best ring ever. This ring was made by Kirk Kara, but little I knew the ring was going to take a few weeks to be made (as it is handmade) and add the shipping times to a friend in the US and then final destination... it seemed like mission impossible. However, I luckily was helped by Peter Manka Jr. and he basically made it happen. He contacted Kirk Kara, he sorted the shipping and in the end I got the ring on time after international shipping... OH! and with Peter also gave me a discount... GREAT! - in 2020 same process happened and now I needed my wedding band and my wifes - again Peter gave us unbelievable prices. This time he went above and beyond. He helped me getting the perfect size for my ring, as I was not able to do the fitting personally as I live in a different country. He sent me about 5 emails with all the recommendations and all the resources he had available to make sure I had the perfect fit. The ring arrived and it is perfect. Really recommend Ben Garelick to everyone. Thanks Peter.

Peter Manka Jr was SUPERB!! They made me a beautiful customized ring, better than anything I couldve imagined. They were fast, efficient, and communicated well. They had a CAD and estimate for me within 48 hours of my initial inquiry. The process was smooth despite me being out of state. The only downside is when they shipped it back they didnt fully insure it via usps and it was left outside my door, no signature required. We had quite the scare but found it. Not the jewelers fault, however, with new covid protocol the only packages that they require actual signatures on are Registered mail packages. Something to consider in the future.

My husband bought my engagement ring 14 years ago from here and then my anniversary band for 5 years together. Both rings are beyond beautiful and I love my heart shaped diamond as its so unique.Peter and the whole staff are amazing! Everybody is so friendly and helpful! They have a great selection of jewelry and the store is so clean and inviting. 5 stars doesnt do this jeweler justice... Id give it 100 if I could. If you want quality caring service with a personal touch and a great selection of diamonds, settings and other jewelry, then Ben Garelick jewelers is the place to go!I just had a couple tips replaced on my engagement ring due to normal wear and age. When I left the ring for repair I was told the guy who repairs was out sick so it could take longer than normal to get my ring back and they couldnt give me a pickup date like they normally do. I understood but, to my surprise in like 3 days maybe, my ring was ready and it was fixed perfectly. My band was polished and my diamonds were sparkling clean. As always, I was happy and everything surpassed my expectations. Thank you BG staff as always!!!

I have had wonderful experiences each time I have gone to Ben Garelicks. They are very friendly , competent and go the extra mile for the customer. The first time I broke my chain and lost one of the decorative balls, they went out of their way to find a replacement. The most recent visit after I broke the chain again, they polished the small foot representing my granddaughter without my asking.

Peter Manka Jr. made me feel comfortable as soon as I stepped into his store. I had no idea what I was doing and he really helped me through the ring designing and purchasing processes. Exceptional customer service, quick communication, and unmatched quality is what I experienced. Definitely recommend!

This is a MAGICAL store!!!! I hardly know where to begin to tell you how amazing this place is...so, Ill start from the beginning. First, it is not a chain, it is truly a family business and it feels friendly right away. Secondly, the owner greeted us and said that even if we tried on everything in the store and left without buying anything, hed still be happy we came in. Have you EVER heard a merchant say that???? Thirdly, the merchandise is lovely and beautiful displayed in a clean and attractive room. When we entered the store, we had no idea what to expect or really what kind of ring we wanted, so we looked around and suddenly we both saw THE one! We didnt even look at the price until after we picked selected it, but it was entirely reasonable. Upon picking it up a few weeks later, the same friendliness greeted us, and to our very pleasant surprise, we were offered a bottle of bubbly or a box of chocolates as a thank you. The shopping experience was so easy and pleasant that it added to the sweet memories we will always have of the day we found our ring. Thank you, Ben Garelick!!!

My family has been going to Ben Garelick Jewelers for years. We cant say enough good things about Jennifer and Peter and the staff. Their jewelry is beautiful and the service is exceptional. My fiancé bought a custom engagement ring for me from Ben Garelick and its fabulous. They worked with us to create the perfect wedding band to complement it too! I would highly recommend them.

My family was introduced to Ben Garelick Jewelers almost 10 years ago when my daughter chose her engagement ring from there. Since then they have been our jeweler of choice. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They have lovely pieces to choose from. One of my favorite rings was purchased from there. Recently, I brought my own engagement ring to them for repair, they did an excellent job and quickly as well. They are the jeweler I trust.

I had to have my engagement ring repaired and brought it to Ben Garelick Jewelers. They came highly recommended by a couple of friends so I had no hesitation. They were very helpful and nice when I dropped it off. They were quick with the repair and contacted me when it was ready for pick up 4 days later. I felt like my ring was in good hands as they gave me a very detailed receipt with picture of my ring while they were working on it. I look forward to working with them again the future!

I just received my custom ring that Peter designed for me and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I was so afraid to order online and he captured my vision and delivered. I received it in time for my wedding and I am more than excited and happy!!!! When everyone else was closed or not able to get me a ring done in time due to covid-19, Peter and his team did!!! Thank you for saving the day!
