Buckley's. - Memphis

Last night to celebrate a birthday, and I will say the service was great. our server raven has made a wonderful job. there were a few hiccups with eating, but nothing even worth mentioning in detail because they immediately fixed it. eating was good, the drinks were great and the ambiente is really nice. I would definitely visit again.

For years we have heard of buckleys grill, but thought there are more beautiful places to go for steaks. we now understand why it has such a big call under long memphians. this is an unpretentious, basic, right-wing local gem. it looks like a small place, the best steak place in a converted pizza hat. parking surrounds the place so no problem there. the atmosphere is a mixture of low light, vinyl topped tables, with nice distance and in case that their conversation slow, there are a few tvs to see the mains channel. the cocktail,- beer and wine menu is limited, but diverse. our server was timely, attentive, friendly and scheduled the meal right. we started with the bacon jam app. then caesar and wedge salate. we ordered the low country filet that contains garnel, filet and framed spinat plus green beans. the salads were fresh and delicious, the bacon jam was a nice app, but the crostinis were cooked directly without being burned. it was uniquely good. our shares were cooked as ordered. the garnels pour, spinach and green beans were all good. here is a note, nothing had an overwhelming taste, heat or let me leave blown away. it is unfair to compare this with folks folly, flemmings, capital grill and the high cost steakhouses. compare are more like the side porch. good eating, friendly people, clean and comfortable space for a reasonable price. it is a place I would return for good eating at a beautiful place.

Had a fantastic dinner here. William was our server and he was fantastic. Nice cozy atmosphere, kinda fancy without being pretentious. We had the chopped steak and the salmon Oscar. Both were great. The star was definitely the Memphis jam bake though. You have to order that.

So good I forgot to photo our steaks. Date night ? Forget Applebees and go here. Steaks cooked to perfection and equal attention to service. Better make a reservation though, or you’ll be getting their fine service at the rather small bar. I lucked out tonight. Haven’t been here for a while it’s always a favorite birthday or anniversary spot. Even the napkin was glad to see us.

Food was great but I am leaving a bad review due to the waiter Raven and the manager being upset about the amount I decided to leave as a tip. The manager told me and I quote “to go to a different restaurant next time and I am not welcome in the restaurant anymore.” The manager was very rude and disrespectful and I will no longer do business with Buckley’s and take my money elsewhere. So if decide to go to Buckley’s do not get this waiter.
