I recently got to try Buck's through a catered lunch at work, and I was pleasantly surprised…read more The food was delivered hot and made the meeting room smell delicious. I got a tray with a pulled pork sandwich, cowboy beans, and coleslaw. The pork was very flavorful with just enough smoke for my tastes, and it went well with the barbecue sauce it came with. I was also impressed with the cowboy beans. Typically, I do not care for beans cooked with beef, but these had a good balance between the two. It also had different varieties of beans that I appreciated. It was savory and filled me up. Lastly, the coleslaw was also good but nothing to write home about. My lunch left me satisfied without being stuffed, which is often an issue I have with barbecue. The only complaint I could see with this meal is portion sizes. While it was a comfortable serving size for myself, I could see others finding the amount of meat given too little for their money and stomachs. Even with the sides, I considered this meal to be lighter than most barbecue I have had. After this experience, I cannot wait for a chance to have a meal at the actual restaurant.

We laughed at an adorable cat, that has been hanging around the restaurant. A group of young guys were loving on the cat. It was nice to see. They gently shooed him off the table when their food arrived. Our food arrived and wow! The brisket was moist and tasty. Great fried green tomatoes and the grits were yummy. My mother's ribs were delish. She raved about the slaw and the greens. We intend to support this excellent mom and pop establishment. The folks there know what they are doing, and they do it with a smile and a heart!

The menu was nice and diverse, something for everyone. Two of use got the Thursday special, meatloaf and the other two, fried chicken. The meatloaf was spot on good. I ordered mashed potatoes/gravy, and cabbage/green as sides. The potatoes were good but the gravy could have been seasoned a bit more, but still good. The cabbage and greens were very tasty with a good smokiness from bacon. A little bit of acidity would have put this over the top, and again, still very good. The fried chicken was cooked perfectly with a nice coating, not greasy at all. The staff were great and the restaurant itself was simple but nice and clean. Prices were fair. I highly recommend stopping at this humble little restaurant for some good home cooking.

In the front there is a cute bookstore that also features local artwork and a few artisan crafts. In the back part of the building is a small, but well stocked bar, and tables where they also serve food. We ordered a bourbon slush- which was refreshing and delicious. Also had a yummy Reuben sandwich served with potato chips. Our server was excellent! She was attentive and friendly. She gave us the scoop on the area and told us about upcoming local events. On the way out I checked out their selection of books. An interesting one on the life of Rudolf Diesel (yup, the engine and fuel is named after him) caught my eye. I picked it up for one of my summer reading books. What a very cool concept- It's definitely worth a stop.

Staying in town for several days to visit the amazing KBS Miniatures Collection (the Louvre of dollhouse miniatures - highly recommend!), I had the opportunity to eat here a few times - it's only open until 3pm or I would have eaten here more! The food is highly creative in its mix of ingredients; so fresh and delicious! One lunch we were lucky enough to score the Mussels in Spicy Broth special. I love mussels and I can't remember the last time I had such plump, perfectly-cooked mussels. The best I've had in ages! I can also recommend the KY Classic Salad that comes with two slices of the crispiest fried green tomatoes I have ever had and a slice of Babz signature cornbread, cut into 1"x4"x1" pieces and refried so they are brown and crunchy on the outside, moist and delectable on the inside. Service is excellent as you would expect in a family-owned and run place. Barbara is the daughter of the locally-famous chef Babz, for whom the restaurant is named. Barbara has clearly inherited her mother's genius for cooking and hospitality. Barbara's husband Al is there too, making all the guests feel special, while doing a great job serving the fabulous food. There is indoor and outdoor seating, with the outdoor tables catching a nice breeze from the Ohio river, three blocks away. In short, this is the best, and healthiest, place to eat in Maysville. Do come, y'all!
