Reviews
WIVB featured Blue Buffalo on Good News in Buffalo. Blue Buffalo's inventive twist on southern food has caught the attention of the Buffalo News and Buffalo Rising.
- You’ll note the interesting twists applied to some of the classic favorites on the menu...there’s the Pork and Tomatillo Quesadilla appetizer ($7), topped off with Monterey Jack, and the BBQ Pork Egg Rolls ($6), which have made quite a transition from the Far East. (These egg rolls are full of pulled pork and coleslaw with barbecue sauce on the side.) – Janice Okun, Buffalo News
