On a very cold evening the restaurant was a welcome treat to end a long day. The service, menu, food quality, timeliness, cocktails, and ambiance were each and all a bullseye. The best food we’ve ever had in Buffalo was right here.

Had a wonderful experience last night. The food was amazing (we did the dinner club). I am gluten free, and I never felt like I was "missing out" on gluten with the food that I got. It was all SO good. It was nice to sit back and enjoy a meal without worrying about trying to figure out if a meal has gluten or not. The drinks were amazing as well. We used to go to BIB when it was on South Park often, and it was nice to go back and experience it again in a new setting. We will be back!
Dietary restrictions: Gluten Free options were amazing!

Absolutely delicious food, cocktails, paired with a moody, sleek atmosphere. They're able to whip up vegetarian or pescatarian meals if needed (and likely other dietary restrictions) without compromising flavor or plating. This is definitely my favorite restaurant in Buffalo -- I recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal with fresh ingredients that you can't find anywhere else in town!

The price is on point...The wine pairing really is a wonderful bargain. The chef is a star, gritty, and authentic!

Simply put, we love this place. The food and drinks are consistently high quality. The atmosphere is quiet, minimal, and relaxed.The chef is excellent. He curates interesting rotating menus with adventurous flavors, textures, and platings. He accommodates dietary restrictions very thoughtfully, without lazy substitutions.The space is well-kept, and the team is great, very diligent, and knowledgeable.The bartenders are the best in Kenmore, hands down. If you have the pleasure of participating in the prix fixe, you'll likely experience a well-thought out pairing.Prix fixe isn't the only option. You can pop in for a quick drink and snack at the bar if there is room.
Vegetarian options: You can get a prix fixe vegetarian meal.
Dietary restrictions: The chef can accommodate dietary restrictions thoughtfully.

My partner and I made a reservation for dinner last night, it was our first time there and mostly certainly not our last! The staff were so kind, a very cozy and relaxing, get sophisticated atmosphere and the 4 course dinner meal was absolutely delicious and creatively crafted. This place is a must to experience!

We had an amazing time at the Black Iron Bystro! We had the Chef’s choice menu with cocktail pairings. I can’t remember the name of the dishes it was a 4 course menu but let me tell you, everything was amazing! The service was phenomenal I mean it seemed like every time I took a sip of water it was refilled within a minute of me setting the glass down. Every course was described when it was brought to the table. The atmosphere was very relaxed and open but intimate at the same time. The drink pairings were delightful and inspired. Our experience was one that delighted us and left a lasting impression on our group. We will be back soon and frequently!
One of the best cocktail bars in Buffalo. Cassidy makes incredible drinks and Derek picks out amazing wine! ?

We had the mystery dinner there two weeks ago and it was wonderful. Service was stellar and each dish was a delicious surprise, especially the ribeye with polenta cake. I wish I had asked what the first cocktail was because I enjoyed it so much but missed when the server told us what it was.
It's an intimate place with not many tables. Great atmosphere for date night or a night out with foodie friends. We will definitely be back.

4 courses if you go for the tasting menu. I enjoyed the mushroom focaccia and cannelloni the most. Overall the meal was enjoyable. Nice atmosphere and good service. Not too pricey
