Made out of repurposed shipping containers, the restaurant space at 128 Genesee Street in Buffalo has rarely had a dull moment and now it is home to another unique concept: Blue Cave, a European-Sicilian bistro.

First, it was Rocco Termini’s whimsical Dog e Style – a fancy wiener spot. Next, it played host to a rotating cast of owners, ultimately becoming the very successful Casa Azul for four years. And now, the restaurant hopefully has another long-term tenet in the form of chef-owner Mario Bianca and his bistro concept.
