Freshness is also a huge part of the experience, and the caprese is hand crafted each day while the pasta is homemade on the premises.

    HBH was an excellent night out. We had friends in from 4 states to Buffalo and the dinner and music (and beer....) was a great night out. They all had fun and the food was excellent. Service was prompt and cordial. Great staff. We sang, we drank, we ate, we made memories for a group that has been a motorcycle riding "family" for over 40 years. I would recommend to anyone and I have been the the original HBH in Munich. This was a blast !!

    Although set inside a hotel, this restaurant had such a cool vibe. Beautiful bar, open kitchen, modern decor, private nooks. The server was efficient, but didn’t exactly give his tables the warm and fuzzies. The short rib, potatoes and rainbow chard were to die for. So tender and flavorful. Had a bite of my husband’s steak and that took was cooked to perfection, tender, and flavorful. Great little stop for our first night in Buffalo.
