- LBLBR83Washington, D.C. Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAlthough 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.More infoPatina 250Price: Expensive• Contemporary American• Buffalo•4.6
