We visit Richland several times a year and usually have at least one dinner at Budds. Our dinner and dining experience last night was one of the best. The service was outstanding. My wife had the steelhead appetizer as her main course and I had a steak. Both were very good.

What a great place to spend Easter dinner with the family. Great food, service and ambiance.

Beautiful restaurant on the waterfront. We had the best table in the house, right by the windows, looking out over the marina and park. The service was excellent and attentive. The foods—trout, steak, eggs, potatoes, blueberry bread/cake—was superbly delicious. It just couldn't be beat. The only thing I can recommend would be to have an optional dish for vegans, of which one was in our group. Our server adeptly helped her to create a breakfast with which she was well pleased. Thank you very much for a very lovely Easter morning brunch!

We always have a great experience at Budd's. Good food and great service every time. Spendy but that's expected for quality steaks and seafood.

Although we didn't get Jennifer as our server (she is our all time favorite) ... Tanner did an excellent job. Well done folks. You are a class act.

Beautiful location, but disappointing experience overall We visited this restaurant for a special evening and were excited by the beautiful setting. I had made a reservation in advance and requested a window table to enjoy the sunset. Although we had to wait for our table despite the reservation, we didn't mind because the view was truly stunning. Unfortunately, the service and food didn't match the scenery. The wait staff seemed rushed and inattentive throughout the evening. We waited quite a while before being helped, and there was little follow-up during the meal. Most of our group ordered steaks — specifically New York and Rib Eye cuts — and while the flavor was just okay, they were unexpectedly fatty more than usual for a Rib Eye. For $68 per steak, we expected a high-quality cut cooked to perfection. Sadly, that wasn't the case. The drinks also fell short — piña colada was poorly made, separating into dairy and liquid, and lacked the classic taste. No one offered us dessert, and the check was brought without asking if we needed anything else. The bill came to over $450 for four people, which felt unreasonable given the subpar food and service. While the location is undeniably beautiful, the overall experience left much to be desired.

highly recommend!! not only was the food outstanding, the service (thank you, Jennifer and Ava!) was top notch! starting with the warm bread (and spreadable butter), to the flavorful entrees (new York strip and walleye) paired with perfectly cooked sides, ending with rhubarb centric desserts, this meal was the best we've had in the TC in a very long time!

The reservation was easy, the requests for window table was a plus, the staff were excellent, the menu selection met all of my parties desires. the attention to the table was excellent. to say thanks is not near enough to express my appreciation for the perfect time spent. Thanks much.

Wonderful once again! Our host Cara was exceptional. Our waitress was attentive and exceptionally helpful! Food was delicious! Oysters fresh, halibut tasty! We will definitely return!

Last night at Buds, the service was perfect! I should have gotten the servers name she was on point and fantastic. My walleye lacked flavor, but it was ok. The tartar sauce made it better. My wife got the New York Steak. ($68) It was cooked medium to order. The steak was very tough. Very tough. I've had better steak at Applebee's to be honest. In the past, we have always been pleased with Bud's, but not this time. For the cost, it is not likely that we will be going back to Bud's. Regards, Roger
Overall a good experience. The food and the service was good.

Diner was great! Although on the more more spend side it's what you would expect from a higher end restaurant and the food hold to that standard in my opinion.

Budd’s Broiler provided an exceptional experience for my husband & I. The staff were so attentive & kind! Our drinks were delicious & the bread with chive butter, was delicious! I tried the halibut cakes with slaw, were decadent paired with the rice & seasoned brussel sprouts, making it a perfectly balanced dish. My husband tried the maple chipotle meatloaf, & loved it noting it was full of flavor & just the right amount of spice. Overall, the ambience of the restaurant is higher end location perfect for nice events or a date night. I highly recommend this restaurant & can’t wait to return! Thank you for the 10/10 experience!

One of the best lounges in Richland with a great happy hour. The food is always fantastic and they serve local wines. Their signature cocktail is an Old Fashioned and it is great! You can't beat the view either.
