    This is one of our favorite steak places to go. It was our anniversary and they gave us a card and everyone said happy anniversary to us. We both got the filet mignon, and it was the most tender filet I've had. We both got dessert, which was delicious. I got a white chocolate raspberry cake, and hubby got a blueberry pie. Service was amazing and on point! Highly recommend for any occasion.

    Our server was exceptional - friendly, attentive, and entertaining. However, the issue arose with my steak, which was undercooked on the inside. I politely sent it back, and the manager even made a point to visit our table. Despite the inconvenience, I was surprised to find that no adjustment was made to the bill, not even a gesture of goodwill. It was almost as if my calm demeanor and lack of complaint were met with indifference. To me, this lack of consideration was disappointing and left a sour note on an otherwise pleasant dining experience.

    Good Afternoon Kim, Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking the time to leave us this feedback. It is only through feedback such as yours that we are able to maintain, and where necessary, improve upon the service and dishes that we provide to our valued guests. While an apology will not alter the outcome of your experience, I do extend it with sincerity and hope to discuss any shortcomings in further detail. We would love to sort this out! If you don’t mind sending me a phone number or the best way to be in touch, I would love to put our General Manager in direct contact with you to make things right. Sincerely, Buckley's Great Steaks Management

    The food was excellent although it took an hour before it arrived at our table. We found it noisy, so it was hard to hear our own conversation. The waitress was wonderful and checked on us frequently to make sure we had everything we needed. Overall, it was very good, and we will go back again.

    So I’ve tried several different steakhouses across the country. This one is definitely top-tier personally, first time there and it definitely won’t be my last. Our server Joelle was just very down to earth upfront and open about everything. I truly hope that we have her again next time we go in there.

    We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your experience with us, and thank you so much for the lovely review! We'll be sure to share your praise with Joelle!

All the best, Buckley's Great Steaks Management
