Buffalo and More

This is a hole in the wall to say the least. Don’t go expecting any type of ambiance! But do go so see a very unique menu that predominantly features locally raised buffalo and bison (although I did see some boxes that may indicate that they need to supplement their supply of local buffalo from time to time). I believe the owners of the restaurant also own the buffalo ranch that is 15 miles away.
The restaurant is very small and seems to do a fair amount of to go business as well as sales of meat — we came home with 2 lbs of ground buffalo, a pound of Italian buffalo sausage and a buffalo roast! Note the pricing on the beef is not inexpensive — think grass fed prices at whole foods.
This is not a Sysco restaurant that opens a box or bottle and serves, it is obvious they they make their sides and dressing in house not to mention the fantastic selection of homemade desserts. They also use quality ingredients — there are freezers and coolers tucked away all over the restaurant and I could see the good quality provolone and roasted garlic in one of the refrigerators.
I had the low carb platter –a buffalo burger topped with provolone and sautéed mushrooms and onions and a salad with real baby lettuce (not the iceberg junk) carrots and cucumbers. I had the house made banana dressing — I asked if it was sweet and the waitress said it was a spicy vinegarette — I’m guessing it was suppose to be banana pepper… Anyhow, it wasn’t spicy or sweet and really didn’t not have much flavor but I still give them credit for making their own dressings! I would totally order this again. My husband had the mushroom burger and son had a burrito that were both good. My husbands Cowboy beans were especially good.
Worth a side trip for the unique menu!

It’s out of the way for most people passing through but so worth it! Hot dog, chili fries, desert, etc.

Visited for an an early dinner on a Thursday night! We were greeted by one of the ladies behind the counter immediately as we walked in. We were the only one in the restaurant at this time. (Only two other tables by the time we left) Our drink orders were taken immediately and our food order shortly after. We got the sweet potato fries for an appetizer and they came out a few minutes later. I love sweet potato anything however the fries were a little burnt so I had to pick through them. Our meal came out shortly after. I ordered the quarter pounder burger with broccoli casserole and my son ordered the hotdog with macaroni and cheese. The burger was good but the broccoli casserole was absolutely disgusting! It didn’t even taste fresh! My sons hot dog was good as well and the Mac and cheese was ok… It tasted like the sides were microwaved and they had that reheated taste. And both came out way too hot. For dessert I ordered the oh my chocolate chip pie with a scoop of ice cream and my son ordered the peach cobbler which had just came out of the oven. Both were great! I love the oh my chocolate chip pie. I also ordered a piece of the chocolate chess pie to go since I had never had it before. It tasted just like a brownie! It was good but the oh my chocolate chip pie was definitely my favorite. My sons peach cobbler was also pretty good as well. Through out the meal we were checked on a couple of times but I had to ask to have my drink refilled which is a pet peeve of mine. However the burger and hot dog themselves were great and the desserts were also very good so we will be back!

Holy cow, or should I say holy buffalo… what a place! I don’t think Guy Fieri and the crew from DDD have visited here, but this is exactly the caliber of restaurant that would be on a show like that! The food here is amazing and the care and love that is taken in preparing it really shows in the taste. My family tried the buffalo cheese fries, the buffalo burger, a salad, mac and cheese and an assortment of homemade desserts. All of it was phenomenal. If you are passing through SW Virginia, this is a must do!!!

I had the small bowl of bison chili ($ 3.29) which was quite good. If you want a piece of cornbread it is an extra 99 cents, but is very good. Be aware that the chili is fairly spicy hot and the small serving is in a small dish — the size that the side orders are served in. You can also order chopped onions, jalapeños, shredded cheese and sour cream to go along with your chili. I am not sure if there is a charge for those or not. Many of the bison menu items sounded like they may be good. The owner raises the bison, and the meat served comes from her herd. I don’t know if you can buy the bison meat there and take it home to cook for yourself or not.
I got a large serving of the chili to go and they were very thoughtful and added a small package of ice to keep it chilled for the 3 ½ hour drive home.
I look forward to stopping by there and trying more things the next time I am down that way. They are near Christiansburg, VA, only about 4 – 5 miles off I-​81, exit 114, State Route 8, south to Riner.

Best Buffalo Barbeque Ever! The staff is fantastic. Chilli cheese fries, all the sides, and the brisket are superb. Don’t miss out on the desserts.

Good food at a reasonable price! We had two different kinds of burgers and sides, all were fresh and tasty. The staff were very friendly. We did take-​out as the restaurant is a little run down, but overall it is a great place. Don’t be turned away by the run-​down appearance!

This place is awsome! Great food and friendly staff, I had the Buffalo Steak sub and wow!, it was great! My wife had the bratworst and she loved it. The chilli cheese fries with jalapeño peppers are a great appetizer as well. Bought some fresh groud Buffalo to take home and put on the grill! All in all I would say you have to check this place out! Will be back soon!

If you like country cooking’, Buffalo and More is the place to be.
Also, Buffalo and More has the best cornbread I’ve ever tasted (Sorry Grandma).
Don’t let the look of the establishment fool you. This is one of the best surprises in the New River Valley. Once you get inside, you understand how much passion the owner has for her local raised bison, and it shows through her cooking.
There are also homemade baked goods, cheeses, and local raised cuts of bison for purchase.

A real country gem. The drive to buffalo & more is scenic & delightful. The food even more so. The pork BBQ was absolutely divine.
My favorite thing however is that they use exclusively humanely treated local meat to make their delicious home style meals. They have their own herds of buffalo.
It is a modest restaurant with humble décor but the staff & owner clearly have passion for their food as well as incredible talent. The food more than makes up for the antiquated décor. I would recommend this southern home cooking to absolutely anyone who loves to eat good food.

My family and I had lunch here today. The food was well prepare and there was a good portion size. The wait staff was very friendly and prompt.

We were visiting from San Francisco Bay Area and were on our way to pick up our dog (who had needed emergency care from the VA Tech Vet School — awesome place BTW). We saw the signs for this Buffalo place and debated about grabbing a sandwich. As we pulled up, it didn’t make much of an impression — looks pretty nondescript.
But then we went in: Super service — very friendly people with great stories about the place. The owner raises the buffalo herself.
I ordered the steak sandwich — I love steak sandwiches so I am pretty picky about them. This was hands-​down the BEST steak sandwich I have ever eaten. My husband got the burger and loved it — but he admitted he would absolutely order my steak sandwich next time. I am hoping we will get back to southwest VA soon — I will SO be back! Kudos on fab food and fab service!

This is a gem you must visit if you’re in the Christiansburg area. My husband and I were out-​of-​towners in search of a local place for dinner.
I love bison meat… and this place was simple, yet satisfying! The burgers are small, but packed with flavor. The desserts were a big plus… homemade and delicious! I had the peanut butter and chocolate chip pie. Mmmmm!
The staff was great and very accommodating to these out-​of-​towners.

Service is friendly and the burgers are good. They have more than bison, but why? Bison is low-​fat and tastes great in a burger. The meat is all locally raised, which I like. You can also buy some meat for your freezer, but it’s not cheap.
The service was very friendly.

If you like bison meat, this is your place.
