Fantastic tri tip and chicken, you will still smell like campfire hours later and that's how you know it's smoked well. Sides are mediocre but the meat is premium!

We LOVE BBQ, and, being in the military and having traveled across the US I must say I have had some damn good BBQ.. Locally you have Bandits, The Meat Locker in TO, and Green Acres over in Simi Valley. Buster’s ranks up there with some of the best. Meat was tender, well seasoned, moist and juicy, delicious! I was taken back a little by the price, but once my plate came I saw what it bought me. Let’s just say my eyes were bigger than my belly and they give you some healthy portions. If you’re in the area and hankering for some good BBQ you need to check Buster’s out to help fill that craving.
Oh, and when they say hot, it is 🥵 HOT BBQ sauce, and I loved it… I’m a Ghost Pepper/Reaper Pepper kind of guy to give you a gauge.

Don't think they'll be open very long. Expensive and dry. Won't be returning.

Asked for shredded chicken sandwich, got hard to chew Chicken breast, orders are slow to fill, seems under staffed, it was nothing special, would not go back, I was hoping for something great, nice cooker out front.

I've been here a couple of times and the food has always been good. I really like their bowls because it's the perfect amount of food. The BBQ sauce is delicious, especially the spicy. Oh, and the garlic bread is also really good. I'm always excited to come back.

Overall, a disappointing Father's Day meal. I ordered the ribs. They were tender-ish but not fall-off-the-bone tender. The flavor also fell short of the promise made by the large smoker in front. Similarly, the BBQ chicken, usually one of my Wife's favorites, was unsatisfying and she left half of her order on the plate. Also, the banana pudding tasted more like vanilla instant pudding with a couple of nilla wafers on top. Maybe they were just having a bad day? I don't know.

Great experience. I was born in Memphis so I am picky about my BBQ, but they really nailed this tri-tip. I love the music in here. The branding is cute. The BBQ sauce is DELICIOUS— one of my favorites. The garlic bread is so perfect in texture. My only complaint is that I wish it had a lot more garlic but it was still phenomenal. Damn. The potato salad reminds me of home. Again— delicious. It tastes to close to my favorite potato salad recipe. I have a big sweet tooth so I love that they use a sweet coleslaw. I opted for the baked beans instead of chili beans. They were tomato-flavor heavy but is was not a bad thing. I guzzled them!
Lastly— I had to get the banana pudding. It was PERFECT. Literally perfect. So fresh and delightful. Holy moly.
My entire meal here was nothing short of yum. I already texted my friend and told him we are coming back here because he needs to enjoy them too!
best tri tip sandwich in a long time
