It seems appropriate that Buffalo Alice's is located on Historic Fourth Street in downtown Sioux City. The longtime Sioux City nightclub gathering spot has gained quite a collection of memorabilia of the city's past. Much of that nostalgic material now decorates the interior of Buffalo Alice's. The atmosphere and ambience are evolving with the move at Buffalo Alice’s. For the past two decades, Buffalo Alice's was a nightclub located at 423 Pearl St. Owner Mike Salviola explains , "We shut down there at the end of November 1995 and opened on Historic Fourth Street Feb. 17, 1996 . We changed the mood and the business with this move," Salviola says. "This is designed to create a more old-style pub atmosphere with a bit of nostalgia for Historic Fourth Street. We typically have more members of the business community stopping by after work."
The 4th Street location has a lighter visual appeal with large front windows brightening the interior. The interior is showcased with the building's original maple wood flooring and the walls also are trimmed in wood. The walls of Buffalo Alice's are decorated with a barrage of signage collected by Salviola over the years including many that hold information to Sioux City's past - such as a "Banana Ripening" sign that once hung at the Palmer Fruit Company, a sign advertising Nehi pop, and a 1959 Wonder Bread sign that includes photos of baseball greats Mickey Mantle and Stan Musial. The business also has a genuine buffalo head adorning the walls named Alice.
Buffalo Alice's concentrates on making "great pizza and offering 115 different kinds of beer. We are trying to create an atmosphere where everyone is going to feel comfortable coming down or just walking by and stopping inside.
