Buck & Rider

Went in with high expectations but was disappointed. The food is okay, but with the price and the fact that it has to be reserved, I expect it to be better. Sushi: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fresh but was cut extremely thick, I feel like I’m not eating sushi but having sashimi instead. Not saying thick cuts are bad but authentic sushi rolls are not supposed to have thick cuts. Also the rice was poorly down it literally fell all over the place when I pick it up with chopstick. Oyster: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Again, fresh but small and was under expectation. The menu says it’s sweet but it was not at all, it was very briny actually. The sizes are very different too, as you can see in the picture, you get decent size ones and you get mini ones. Burger and pasta: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It was okay but again, under expectations. I feel like I can get these at other places, they are not bad but it could be better. Service and environment: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Service was amazing. The waiter was very friendly and did a great job serving us. The place is pretty cool and they also have outdoor seating, but the noise level is high, would recommend going somewhere else if you like quiet places.

We decided to go to Buck and Rider during the week and we were so glad that we did. This place is always packed and the best time to go here is during the weekday around happy hour time. We ordered dozen oysters and we were impressed with the variety on their menu. We ended up sharing the king salmon nigiri, deluxe spicy tuna roll row, and seafood risotto. If you are looking for a great seafood experience in Scottsdale then this is the place to be. Great atmosphere, drinks, and food selections. Highly recommend for those that are looking for a fun time!

My boyfriend and I are visiting from Michigan. We wanted to have dinner to celebrate my birthday. I just stumbled upon Buck & Rider looking for suggestions online. We were so pleased with our dinner picks this evening. Everything was beyond phenomenal! Our server Shelby was super attentive, made great suggestions, and made sure everything was perfect. Not only was the service great, but the food was SO GOOD!!! The best salmon I have ever had. My only complaint is that I wish I didn’t live so far away ? thank you for the wonderful drinks, food, and dining experience. Truly a great night!!

Wow! The food was awesome!!! We ordered a lot of items and they were all good. I got the 16oz ribeye and 1/2 a lobster and it was worth every penny. My wife got the Mary's Pam roasted chicken and it was also good. The staff was nice and the manager came to our table ans0d asked if everything was great. We had good service from starting from the valet, hostess, wait staff manager. Highly recommend. Please beware that you will have to valet park. Our 1st time there so we drive in and went all the way in the parking lot not knowing there is a 1 way. Had to back out and valet.

Fantastic! Come hungry and try several things. An amazing fresh seafood list and unlimited preparations. The service staff is efficient, knowledgeable and will make great suggestions, so make sure you ask. The food is fresh as can be and the preparation and presentations were flawless. I don't know why I waited so log to try this place, but I will be back frequently. WE tried all the oysters, caviar, and shared four of the fresh catch items and added all the veg options and some voodoo fried rice. Wow is all I have left to say. Just check out the pics.

I took my wife to lunch here for our first time today. I ordered the famous fish sandwich and she got the fish tacos. Going in I had pretty high expectations. The famous fish sandwich was a small sandwich and didn't have much flavor. The fish tacos were also small and honestly not very good. The food left alot to be desired especially at this price point. The inside of the restaurant was very nice so I'm giving it 2 stars.

Greeted by a bonnie girl from Australia with a lovely accent, great start. Sat very quickly. I think our server might have been having a bad day as we got off to a short start, it improved quickly. The food was all fresh and delicious. The fish was a bit small but had a good flavor. The Cole slaw was amazing with a unique flavor that was fresh and enjoyable. The chips were fine, more American then British, meaning thin not thick. They did bring malt vinegar! The beignets were great and not great. Some were not cooked all through. The French toast was pretty good lots of fresh fruit. The sushi while fresh was a bit too new age for my tastes. It has fruit and or nuts. The prices were what you would expect for the type and quality. Overall a good experience.

Super fun for birthdays or special events. I would highly recommend reservations. It gets super crowded and it is a loud environment. I love that it decorated nicely and the food is fantastic. Everything I had I liked . Their chocolate cake tastes great! When I was there they didn’t have everything in stock.
