It was a Wednesday night but very very busy. I didn’t like ordering our appetizers and then not ordering the entrees until later.

My wife and I had a burger and steak tips. The smash burger was good/ok and the steak tips were very tough and returned to the kitchen. The burgers are expensive and fries are an up charge. Don’t think we will rush back.
Buckley's Burgers & SteaksResponded on 25 October 2026
Good Afternoon Stuart, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologize that your steak tips were not up to our standards. Our burgers do come with fries, though specialty options such as our truffle parmesan fries are available as an upgrade. We certainly hope our team communicated this clearly, as we always want our guests to be aware of any additional costs. We would appreciate the opportunity to invite you and your wife back for a better experience. If you would kindly respond here, we would be happy to have our General Manager reach out personally to arrange a return visit and ensure your next experience reflects the quality and hospitality we always strive to provide. All the best, Buckley's Burgers & Steaks Management

Our reservation was at 5:30 PM. We were seated immediately. It took an hour to get a drink. It took another hour to get our food. My New York sirloin, that I ordered rare, was barely pink and extremely salty. I should have sent it back, but didn't want to prolong our time there any longer. Our waitress would disappear for long periods of time. She didn't bring one of our desserts and claimed she didn't hear the order. It was extremely noisy and very difficult to hear conversations. The whole room seemed to echo. In their defense, they were extremely busy and appeared to be understaffed. We finally left at 9:10 PM.
Buckley's Burgers & SteaksResponded on 27 October 2026
Good Afternoon Georgia, 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 the chance to sort this out! If you don’t mind sending us your phone number or the best way to be in touch, I would love to put our General Manager in direct contact with you to discuss this in greater detail. Sincerely, Buckley's Burgers & Steaks Management

This is our forth visit. Service is rather slow and has been for some time. Cost to quantity are moving in what seem to be different directions. The food is very good and the seating/decor is really inviting and comfortable. The lack of rolls with a dinner that costs $40+ for menu entrees is not to my liking. The staff are friendly. Something that needs to be addressed is the space to stand to wait for your table -it is non existent. Inside the door you’re standing next to people trying to enjoy their meals. Otherwise you’re in the breezeway and it is just a hassle standing there.
Buckley's Burgers & SteaksResponded on 22 October 2026
Good Afternoon, Thank you for your continued patronage and thoughtful feedback. We apologize for any delays you have experienced. While we never want our guests to feel rushed, we likewise never want to you to feel as though things are taking longer than intended. Should you prefer a more expedited dining experience, please let us know, and we will do everything in our power to accommodate at any time. We are also happy to share that we have just added twin ciabatta loaves to our menu, served with homemade honey butter and garlic herb butter! Thank you again for your visit and feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back soon. All the best, Buckley's Burgers & Steaks Management

Everything about our visit was pleasing. Friendly staff. Great food - taste and selection. Wonderful setting. But I need to teach them how to make an Old Fashioned. Wrong icd cube and too sweet.
Buckley's Burgers & SteaksResponded on 17 October 2026
Good Afternoon David, Thank you for your kind words! We are delighted to hear you enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and hospitality. Regarding your Old Fashioned, our signature Smoked Old Fashioned is served over a king cube, which is also always available upon request for our traditional Old Fashioned. Our standard preparation uses regular ice unless otherwise requested. I will be following up with our bar team to ensure we are asking guests about their preference going forward. We appreciate the feedback and look forward to welcoming you back soon! All the best, Buckley's Burgers & Steaks Management
