Water Buffalo (Riverfront Dining)

Do you enjoy the pleasures of eating by the water side?  How about great food on a patio?

If you like these things then Water Buffalo is the place for you!

My family and I had dinner there for my birthday celebration. 

Not only did it have a good atmosphere,  but the menu had enough variety to cater to all of our needs.

I have all of our meal selections below.

Check out this restaurant on a bright and sunny day!

The Empty Nester
She opted for the "Oyster Po-Boy." Yummy fried oysters on a toasted roll with cajun remoulade, iceberg lettuce, and tomato. All of this with your choice of fries, fresh fruit, cole slaw, or soup for $13.00 (Lunch menu). Her only issue she had was that it wasn't a lot of oysters on the Po Boy and she wished there was more. Other than that, she liked the meal overall.

The Young Hipster
Now that I am vegetarian,  it's nice to find menus with a lot of vegetarian options. I opted for the "Three Cheese Ravioli" ($14.50 on the lunch menu). It's hard to resist ravioli filled with ricotta, parmesan, mascarpone,  shallots, and garlic. These were cooked in a savory sage butter sauce. It was my birthday so I decided to splurge and pig out on a side of "Parmesan fries w/ Garlic Aioli." ($5) My only suggestion is to request to have the cheese melted a little over the fries.

The Busy Mom and my Grandfather
The father-daughter duo decided to try the "Friday Fish Fry" that they ha e every friday. Champagne battered Alaskan cod served with fries, apple slaw, and rye bread is a great way to start the weekend off right! For the lunch menu, it only cost $14.50.

We suggest browsing the drink menu for the "Boozy Palmer". It was a fan favorite!

For appetizers, give the "Louisiana Crab Cakes" and "Lobster Rangoon" a try! You won't regret it.
