    Guinness beer

    Service missed the mark. The server didn't write down orders, and my mom was served green peppers despite an allergy and a clear request to leave them off. The side plates were dirty and still had food on them. The Guinness was even worse. It arrived as mostly foam in a dirty glass at the bottom. After sending it back, it was simply topped off with the same foam and same cup. The third return wasn't much better. Extremely disappointing.

    Have you ever driven past a place many times and never really registered it as a hidden secret? My parents wanted to take me out to dinner and I needed to go to Clarkston. Serendipity happened. Their was an accident that diverted us and I looked up Buckshots on Yelp. We went in, grabbed a table, had not only an amazing, patient server Alisha, we had a wonderful dinner! I had to try the French Onion Soup. It was absolutely delicious as the pictures will show. Mom had a Reuben with handmade kettle chips. She said it was the BEST Reuben she had ever had. Dad had the ground beef nachos, a huge portion on a baking tray. I had them substitute the salsa for Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce. There were delicious!! The restrooms were spotless, the vibe was friendly and relaxed. We will definitely be back!

    Straight up north without being up north. Love the cabin vibe inside and they have a great large patio on the outside where they expanded and put in a small couch/gas fireplace area. They are known for their drinks, like their infused vodka drinks so be sure to ask the bartender about drinks before sitting down just incase you get a newbie server that has NO IDEA what specialty drinks they can make (speaking from experience). The spicy mango margarita is fantastic the sweet balances the spicy. They have a larger beer list, nothing too crazy with the craft beer, but still offer variety. The food is good and the portions are large. We went with straight comfort food selections and it didn't disappoint. The woodsmen could have been a meal of it's own. The quesadillas we could have split and the chicken bowl is straight from KFC famous bowl but better! I can't speak on service and my review does not reflect that, because as we know help is hard to find right now after shutdown, let alone experienced help. Just be patient and enjoy the atmosphere and your drink :)

    I came here on a Saturday afternoon with a group of 10 people. The place wasn't very busy so we…read morefigured it would go fast. It took forever for them to take our order, then it took forever for them to bring out the food. The food was good enough, but I don't think I'd go back because of how long everything took. I got an omelette and it tasted fine with great potatoes. The only choice on toast was white bread.

The hamburger taste was OK but I am not a fan of the two 4 oz patties that make up this burger and would have preferred one fatter 8 oz patty that would have been a bit juicier. Generous amount of fries came at a $2 upcharge that were well made. Relative to the margarita which was a served in a generous tall glass as the Tuesday drink special for $6, it had a fizzy texture to it and was quite tasty and definately a nice deal at that price point. The restaurant itself has a nice industrial feel to it with with plenty of indoor dining and three large double garage doors that open up to their large outdoor dining area allowing a nice warm breeze to flow into the main restaurant which it did on the 79 degree day I ate here. Very nice! Also, true to its Sports Bar theme there are a ton of TV's strategically placed throughout the restaurant providing great viewing sight lines of the sports programs and games on at the time. Another nice plus. Lastly, the staff was super friendly with great follow up throughout the meal. Overall I was pleased with my first dining experience here and would definately consider this restaurant again under the conditions where inside/outside dining are important to me and/or catching the game with friends where venue had equal or higher weighting than the food.

    Went for a second time, despite my last review…read more My son insisted on the chicken fingers again. Daughter required a pepperoni pizza. My wife had the fajitas and I decided on the Nashville Chicken Sandwich. The food came relatively quick. The chicken fingers were about the same but my son was happy. The pizza was pretty nondescript. I'd compare it to a low grade high school pizza with really nothing to recommend it. My wife appreciated the large size of the fajitas and salad but also found the fajitas unusually spicy. Sadly, the Nashville Chicken didn't really taste at all like Nashville Chicken. It wasn't bad but it just wasn't what was expected. The fries were good and we like the seasoning. But that's about the highlight of the night. I think this really will be the last time for me.

    Visited for dinner on a Friday night. A little after 5:30p. I was sad to see that happy hour stops…read moreat 5:30p. Inside was pretty slow. By the time we left, it seemed to be a little more busy. I'm pretty sure there was only one waitress for both the bar and the dining room floor. The menus were sticky, especially the happy hour and drink my news. Lots of different cocktails. I ordered a margarita and was asked if I wanted a flavor. I asked for mango but then was told later they were out. So I went with blackberry. The drink was fine. It wasn't the best margarita I've ever had though. It's called O Grizzly's and there's some Oakland University nods inside. There were quite a few patrons wearing Golden Grizzly gear, there was a basketball game that night. But the place still feels gimmicky to me. A way to market Oakland University people and get them in the door but doesn't do much else after that. There really doesn't feel like a true affiliation with the University. Bathrooms are single stall and felt clean. The menu is not too overwhelming. Went with the blooming onions and they were absolutely delicious. Hot onions with a crunchy batter and a yummy dipping sauce. I went with the Tandoor wings as it was really played up on their menu. I got medium for sauce. My husband got chicken tenders and we ordered a side of fries. I was disappointed with my chicken wings. They were a good size but the skin was rubbery and some of the chicken tasted chewy. Also, the sauce was very runny, didn't really stick to the chicken wings. I am not sure where the Tandoor part was to the wing? They gave about five half sticks sliced in half of celery for nine wings, not enough at all. I asked for blue cheese but was given ranch. The fries were thicker, cut, and swirly, which are interesting and they had a good seasoning on them. Our waitress was friendly and decently attentive, considering she had to serve every table and run the bar. Food was coming out decently fast. But getting our check and cashing out took a while. It got to the point where my husband just went up to the bar where she was so we could cash out.
