★★★★★ 5.0 Joe Goodhue · Nov 2025

Came here on Saturday night for a date night. Let me tell you, from start to finish, everything was exceptional. The food was absolutely delicious (you can tell they use high quality ingredients), the service was attentive, and the hospitality especially from their manager William was truly top-notch. We felt like a VIP! The ambiance is warm, intimate, and full of character, making it one of those rare restaurants that instantly feels special. The standout of the night was their table side service Prime Ribeye Chop for Two, it was high quality, cooked to absolute perfection, and easily the best steaks I’ve ever had. The Cheddar Burrata Mash Potatoes was nothing I’ve ever had. I 100% recommend!! And to finish off the evening, we had The Baked Alaska, absolutely mind blowing! We were full a

Amazing spot! Cocktails are super fun and creative. Service is spot on (+tableside service.) The courtyard is beautiful and the interior is a welcomed reminder of a traditional east coast steakhouse meets Hollywood hangout. And for the most important part of the review… The food was outstanding… I loved everything we ordered! Starters: the Zucchini Blossoms, Tuna Tartare, Oyster Shootout. Main: Boeuf Bourguignon. I also got the Buffalo Bars for dessert. Sorry no photo… it looked too good to wait! Everything was perfect, can’t wait to come back!

Had a galentines dinner here and highly recommend! All the food is incredible, staff is so friendly, and William the GM was the best!

I’ve loved going to The Buffalo Club for years. It never disappoints. From the phenomenal service to the astounding food, this latest visit did not disappoint. The Beef Bourguignon was to die for. This latest experience was no exception, the zucchini blossom starters are delicious. Thanks for a great experience, as always! The Buffalo Club outdoor patio late evenings has a DJ, more of a club atmosphere, also fun. So grab a meal first then head to the patio!

Came here on a Friday night for a girls dinner with some friends. Food was excellent!! Loved everything we got. Drinks were also very good - I recommend the espresso martini but the wine I ordered was also fantastic. Service was not slow but definitely drawn out so I’d plan on taking your time which we were happy to do! Our server was wonderful. Overall great experience and would come back again.
