    For starters, our server Sierra was fantastic. We’ve all been to establishments where it was obvious the server was there just collecting a check. Sierra has a magnetic personality and it is obvious she understands the relationship between the words “service” and “serve”. She is a tremendous asset to this establishment. The ambiance of the dining room could best be described as quaint. It has been impeccably decorated to resemble what it would have been in the stagecoach era. For those who enjoy spirits and ale the bar is quite captivating. With plenty of choices on tap and bottles it’s a great place to take in a game or otherwise kill an afternoon. Our group had a Breakfast Burger, Whiskey Burger and Turkey, Bacon and Avocado sandwich. The burgers were cooked to the exact temperatures requested; and the TBA featured perfectly cooked bacon and fresh avocado which is hard to get this time of year. For myself I had the Fajitas. The menu offered a base of Steak, Chicken or Shrimp. A combo was to pick the base item and then pick a second. Well I wanted all three and was amazed because I got way more than I expected! Normally when you order all three as a combo you expect small cubes of steak and chicken, mixed in with a few shrimp that look like they were starved to death. Not at Buckeye! They served about 8 good sized shrimp along with a 6 ounce breast and an equally sized steak that was exactly as I like it, medium rare. Without getting appetizers, none of us finished our food. We went on a Saturday, and although they were getting really busy we didn’t feel rushed to leave. Overall Buckeye easily earned their 5 Star rating, and if I could award bonus stars they would be at least 7! Whether you’re in the area on business, or simply visiting family and friends make sure you prioritize getting here. If you’re local and haven’t been here yet, what are you waiting for?

    We've been trying to have weekly date nights, and we are trying different places we have never been to before. We have driven by Buckeye Tavern many times, and finally got a chance you visit. We LOVED it there and can't wait to go back! Our waitress Buffy was outstanding and the food was great! The atmosphere inside was right up our alley too! I highly recommend checking this place out if you haven't ever done so! :)

    Stopped in for dinner while out birthday shopping for my husband. Was sat very quickly and attentively. From the moment we arrived until we left the staff was amazing. Everyone was very polite. The food was amazing! Everything was very clean and decorated beautifully. Our waitress Lisa was beyond kind and super upbeat. She was amazing. Would highly recommend this place.

    Our first time at Buckeyes but definitely not our last! The service was fast and attentive. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful too. The food was delicious, too. We ordered the French onion soup, Caesar salad, and blue cheese chips. All so tasty! We both ordered the Crabmeat Colorado steak. The filet was one of the best we’ve had, very tender and demi glace paired well. Unfortunately the crab tasted too fishy and salty, so maybe next time we would just get the regular filet. Can’t wait until our next visit!
