Bill Rapaport's Buffalo Restaurant Guide

What the Ratings Mean

My rating-code *s means roughly the following:

RatingInterpretation
noneI haven't eaten here (yet) or I have eaten here, but have no opinion
[—]I've eaten here at least once and not liked it.
[*]I've eaten here at least once, NEW possibly at most once, and liked it.
[**]I've eaten here at least once and really liked it,
NEW or I've eaten here at least twice and it has been consistently good.
[***]Can vie with the best of restaurants in major cities, in my humble opinion;
NEW my equivalent of the Michelin red guide's "worth the trip".

My rankings differ from those of others, and in some cases only reflect my not having eaten at a given restaurant.

So a restaurant with 0 stars might be worthy of [***] stars.

Read the comments before deciding not to eat somewhere!
