Buffalo

A Buffalo establishment since 1936, Oliver’s is known for its elegant décor, inventive small plates and sophisticated wine list. The menu is cultivated yet unpretentious. Selections showcase the best ingredients and skilled preparation. Appetizer favorites, such as the grilled sea scallops with arugula or Oestra caviar, are just enough to stroke the appetite and guide you toward a dining experience that includes refined entrées. Try poached halibut served atop warm beluga lentil salad with mango salsa and curried yogurt or pork tenderloin with a five-spice honey glaze, heirloom bean ragout, carrot-ginger purée. And for dessert, the house specialty—baked Alaska served with chocolate and caramel sauces—is a spectacular way to end a meal.
