2201 Christian StThis neo-bistro* is named for Buckminster Fuller, a mid-century designer, inventor and architect who created the geodesic dome (think: Epcot) and believed in reducing our carbon footprint. Chef Rob Marzinsky’s menu of market-driven, locally-sourced ingredients follows that belief, and encourages guests at Buckminster’s to walk right in, sit way back and mingle awhile over an evolving selection of plates to share.
