I'd say - If you want a decent, light on self and pocket - this place wins: the meals are so good that you even have room for dessert and not feel guilty.. you do get the guilty pleasure moment for their standout dish - butter cake. I am little surprised the fish and chips don't get a lot of praise here and it def is praise worthy! Their fried calamari is a little on the oiler side.. but their Clam chowder, oh that compensates well! Now the drinks are another thing I ordered the Two by the sea, oh, for a weekday afternoon that drink was SMOOTH! Going to def the dinner service sometime for sure! But, don't SKIMP out on this place when in Tempe marketplace. The seafood is fresh, the atmosphere is amazing and old schooled inside and the service is quick!

First time here on the recommendation of a few people in our party who come here frequently…read more I was underwhelmed by the service. The food was mediocre, for the price we paid. We had to order steak off the adult menu for a child that was in our party that wanted to have steak because of the limiting gluten free options on the kids menu.

UPDATE 2026…read more Bluewater is our new favorite seafood restaurant. We went last Wednesday for HH and the bartenders are a fantastic team. They run a very professional bar. The service we received from them was next level. The kitchen did a great job too. I got the fish and chips with walleye. It was flaky goodness paired with crisp and salty fries. I washed it down with a couple smoked old fashoineds. We left with a satisfied smile.

Came here for lunch recently with a family member when we were in the area…read more After looking over the menu, we decided to start off with the grilled Spanish octopus to share, and I had gotten a cup of the New England clam chowder. The Spanish octopus was alright. The clam chowder was flavorful and not too salty; definitely made it into the top three clam chowders I've had in the state so far. For our main entrees we ordered the New England lobster roll and the gemelli pasta with shrimp and scallops. The lobster roll was flavorful but felt like it was missing something. The gemelli pasta tasted a bit bland for my taste buds, but the family member I went with really enjoyed it. Since we always have room for dessert, we ordered a crème brulee to share. The crème brulee was nice and not overly sweet. Overall, service was professional, knowledgeable, attentive, and the food arrived in a timely manner. The restaurant itself is quite spacious with nautical décor throughout which gives off a comfortable and relaxing vibe.

The experience starts…read moreoff on the right foot with complimentary valet, making it an easy choice even during busy times. We originally came for the $2.50 oysters, and they absolutely lived up to the hype. While the oysters were the main attraction, the ceviche and yellowtail roll were just as impressive and made for a perfect spread to share. The happy hour cocktail menu is equally well done, with everything from refreshing spritzes to smoky mezcal drinks, all at great prices. It's the kind of menu where everyone in your group can find something they'll enjoy. Whether you're looking for an affordable happy hour, fresh seafood, or just a great place to unwind with friends, Buck & Rider delivers. Between the quality of the food, the drink specials, and the complimentary valet, it's easy to see why this spot is so popular. We'll definitely be back.

Buck & Rider is an upscale seafood restaurant close to Arcadia near 44th street and Camelback…read more We came for lunch on Wednesday. We were seated immediately after arriving and our waiter, Trevor, was right there to greet us. This was our first visit so Trevor took some time to talk about some menu items with us. We ordered and our food came out pretty quickly. I ordered crab cakes. They were the best I've ever had. They were crab meat, sauce in a panko crust. None of the mostly stuffing with some crab pieces thrown in. Delicious! They wet accompanied by the summer green beans and corn. This was served cold, like a salad with a light dressing and some shavings of Parmesan on top. Amazing! My wife doesn't like seafood, so she had a pasta dish. Buck & Rider was kind enough to replace the shrimp with chicken for her. We split a banana cream pie for dessert. Great graham cookie base, banana cream and then whipped cream on top. Sliced banana on the side of the dish and everything was sprinkled with chocolate shavings. Excellent! This was a great place to have lunch. We'll be back!

We went with the Cajun seasoning, and it does have a solid kick to it. The corn and potatoes were a nice balance, helping cut through the spice a bit. The corn in particular was a standout: you get that sweet, salty, and spicy all at once, which was really satisfying. Everything came well-prepped and cleaned, so eating wasn't a hassle, and there's a fun, hands-on element to the whole experience that made it even more enjoyable. Lastly, the restaurant is quite spacious, so we had no issues finding a seat for our large group.
