“Only been there twice. Was there with a big family Christmas Gathering and everyone was very pleased with their food. That time, and the last time I went there, I got the coconut chicken because you can’t get that anywhere else. Phenomenal! Fresh green beans and coconut. Jasmine rice was excellent side dish to their encrusted coconut chicken. Service was great both times. Restaurant and bathrooms were clean. Going back again.“

Last night we went there on a whim and Andrew Schneider was amazing. From the minute, he greeted us at the table it was top-notch throughout the whole meal. We’ll definitely be back. We definitely miss the vibe. Thank you Andrew(Drew) for an incredible experience and service. And of course, the food was fantastic!“

“Thank you so much to everyone at 15th Street for making our last minute graduation party a perfect day for my baby girl. After the devastating news of not being able to have our party at our house one month before the grad party we were panicking. After discussing a plan with Madison and Collin we came together beautifully. All everyone talked about was how delicious the food was. Thank you to Ashley our server for taking care of all of us. Words will never express my love for you guys in helping give my baby the best before she goes to college!“

“Phenomenal food. Was looking for a restaurant and so glad I lucked out choosing this one. When I arrived immediately received a large loaf of bread with the table. The flounder, coconut milk rice, and Granada were 10/10. Don't get me started on the desserts, the butter cake was 11/10 and the cobbler just as outstanding. Stuff mushroom, just another home run. The staff were attentive with great recommendations. Chamomile tea paired well with all of this. The pizza was also some of the best pizza I ever had. I don't often come to this area but I will be making the drive for this place. Highly recommended. Nice place, with an outdoor dining area. This place is perfect for dating. Prices were surprisedly less than I would expect for such amazing food.“

“My family used the Game Room 2/23/25 for a Memorial Gathering for my brother, Andrew Clark. Though the reason for the occasion was a somber one, the Game Room was perfect in atmosphere, size, amenities, and decor! Food was top notch, service superior with our 2 bartenders who kept dishes clear and beverages flowing. Erin, the manager was a jewel to work with! She answered questions and offered suggestions and took every phone call with grace and sincerity. I would highly recommend Buck Shots Bar and Grill for any reason to get together with family and friends! Sheryl Greene, 2/25/25“

“Great Place. My complaint. NO BLUE CHEESE DRESSING. I Had Chicken Strawberry Salad once a week. Every now and then since they quit serving Bleu cheese. Never after today when We asked the server who to address our concerns to, 2 servers pointed to the owner who picked up our plates and pretended he couldn't talk English. RUDE“

“I stopped in Monday on my way back from up north. First time here. I wanted to go back the next day. I wasn’t a fan of the queso but I’m not a huge cheese guy but I typically like queso. The salsa’s were very good. I mixed them and they were even better. Steak tacos were so good. Rice was good, but didn’t seem authentic. Cheap food, I will be back!!“
