“Stopped off otw home on a whim! Definitely a happy accident. Brunch buffet was on point with fresh omelet/waffle station. Every item I tried was flavorful and well presented. Not always the case with a buffet! Price point was very reasonable for the selection and quality of food. Very friendly staff, even in the midst of a large private party making their way through as well. My only disappointment l was their choice of bloody mary mix. Would definitely stop again when in the area.“

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!“

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about 15th Street Catering! From start to finish, they were absolutely amazing. With a wedding of 240 guests, we knew there were a lot of moving parts, but their staff handled everything with such professionalism, organization, and care. They were truly on top of everything!

The service was outstanding, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the food was absolutely incredible. We had SO many guests come up to us throughout the night raving about the food and telling us how delicious everything was. As the parents of the bride, that meant so much to us because we wanted our guests to have an amazing experience—and 15th Street Catering definitely delivered!

And we have to mention the late-night French fry and tater tot bar… what a HIT! It was such a fun addition and our guests absolutely loved it!

From the quality of the food to the incredible service and the way they handled a 240-person wedding so seamlessly, we were beyond impressed. We would highly recommend 15th Street Catering to anyone looking for a caterer who will go above and beyond to make their event special.

Thank you, 15th Street Catering, for helping make our daughter’s wedding such an incredible and memorable night! You were absolutely amazing! ❤“

“Great food, I love their fish tacos, though aren't fish tacos shaped like fish? The bread sure has a lot of poppy seeds on them, maybe too much since most ended up on the table instead of being eaten. It is nice there are crayons you can use to draw on the paper table sheet.“

“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“

“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!!“
