No blues after eating at Buffalo Blues

For the first time in a while, Luke and I (and our other roommate, Jack) all found time last night to go out and get some food. It was colder outside and without a vehicle, we made the short walk down Highland Avenue to Buffalo Blues. Luke and Jack had been their once or twice before, but this would be my first time.

Buffalo Blues, located right on Highland Avenue four or five blocks from Fifth Avenue, is known for its wings and once you walk in, you get that feeling: music playing, people drinking at the bar and even some cornhole action going on. It was good place and from whenever we first got there until we left, we all agreed that we were having a good time.

It might even be my nomination for Best Pittsburgh Restaurant, but then again it may be too premature.

We all ordered something different and split a 10-piece order of wings (Howlin' Wolf, the third spiciest wings, and Garlic Parm, which were fairly mild).

Note: if you go to Buffalo Blues on Wednesday, it's all-you-can eat wings for something like $10. This is a solid deal considering how good their wings tasted. They also have a few other specials on different days. Just check out their specials page on their website.

As for our entrees...I ordered a blackened chicken sandwich (Low Down Spicy Blues Cajun Chicken), Luke went with a burger and Jack got a wrap. All of our entrees also came with their house made hand cut chips. They were good, too, and just the right amount.

We agreed that the portions were the right amount and we felt full at the end of the meal, which is good. The prices were fairly reasonable, too, and just what you'd expect for a restaurant like this. Sandwiches ranged from $7 to $10 and full course entrees were around $14. Not too bad. Wings were also reasonable at under a buck per wing (like I said before, wing night is the way to go if you're in the mood for that).

After our trip to Buffalo Blues, it's safe to say that we'll be back.

They also have a nice beer selection for the legal out there with 30+ draft beers on tap.

As for more restaurant reviews, I think we'll have more because all three of us have Tuesday nights open and plan on doing more things like this.
