    The Barnyard Burger and Tots
    Brad L.

    Pardon the half eaten burger, but I had to share right away. Tried Buck and Ear today and oh my! Started off with the bologna bites and then moved to the Barnyard Burger and tots. My wife had the Half Pound Cheeseburger and fries. Both the tots and fries were super crispy and had a really good flavor. The burgers were cooked to perfection. Not a lot of beer offerings on tap, but a fully stocked bar to serve almost your every need. The wait staff was great and while the place is small, I think it's neighborly. It's really good food for take out, but the atmosphere is just as inviting if you're looking for a hang out with friends for good food and a few drinks.

    Nice little sports bar and grill. Came in on a Wednesday night for dinner. Service was courteous and fast. They have 14 beers on tap, 2 pool tables, electronic dartboards, and 5 TVs plus Keno. I had a Devils Backbone (Virginia) Irish Red, which was very tasty. Tried a local Dayton beer, Gamma Bomb. Very hoppy and good. I also ordered the porkchop off the menu. 2 pieces, plus 2 sides, for $10. Outstanding. I had a side salad that was very nicely done with cheese, croutons and tomatoes. Also had a cup of cottage cheese to balance the beer on my diet. The pork chop was expertly prepared. Nicely seasoned and grilled over an open flame. Great taste, a little tough. But then again, the whole meal was $10. Can't wait to come back and try the burger.

    Great food! Outdoor seating! Nice music. Only problem was hard to find. Name not on outside. And add cocktail sauce with fried mushrooms. Had a great date night! Thanks

    Chicken wings were raw. My wife actually threw up immediately after eating. Food was gross, atmosphere was even grosser.

    Not sure how to best represent our experience. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't great and it seemed…read morea bit pricey for what we got. I think we spent $70 with a tip and that was for 3 people. No Alcohol. One soda and 3 entrees and an appetizer. Again, the food wasn't bad but it wasn't amazing. I posted pics of what we got. The shrimp po boy was probably the most disappointing. Don't get me wrong...loaded with shrimp but just your pre-made shrimp, fried and served. My Rasta pasta was really good. Plentiful and heat was just right. The little piece of bread tasted like it may have been a bit out of date. The jerk cheesesteak was good and good flavor. Fries were my favorite. Had a bit of the coating on them and crunchy and just really tasty. Appetizer of fried ochre was 10 out of 10. Portion size was generous and they came out smoking hot and tasted great. Dining room was a bit odd...like a 60's jazz bar. Music was loud for the amount of people there. We were seated by one person who told us they would be serving us and then another guy came and told us he would be taking care of us. Seems like it may be a "whoever gets to the table first and takes an order gets the table". It was an odd exchange when the girl who seated us came back only for us to say some guy already took our drink order. Unclear as to who was supposed to do what but that made things a little weird. I would be willing to go back but my wife wasn't impressed so I don't know as we will return. We wanted to try it as we had heard great things but now that we have, not sure we need to go back. Food wasn't awful, something just left an odd taste with us and our experience.

    Food was great! Service was outstanding…read more Ambience was really good especially for our larger party (10 of us). Background noise was low and we were able to have conversations without having to raise our voices. Highly recommend the Old fashioned cocktail

    Experience: Visiting family and this is their favorite Mexican spot in the area. They took us for…read moredinner. It was about 6:00 on a Wednesday. Facility: they have a very unique and beautifully decorated restaurant. The lamps are pretty, so look up from that phone LOL! They have booths and tables and chairs. The restaurant was completely empty while we were there, which is strange as the food was very good. Service: I did not get the name of the server, but she was great. Friendly and gracious to my family's lame jokes. We never had an empty glass or needed to call her over. Food: I took photos of everyone's plate and tasted one other plate... the honey chipotle chicken... it was good, but too sweet for me. My family LOVED it. I ordered the carnitas, because I love them... these were pretty good. There were a few dry pierces but mostly it was moist, and flavorful. The chips and salsa were good. They have a more traditional thicker chip and the salsa is homemade and very good, with an almost smokey finish. We also got a bowl of queso... it's a little too thin and runny (I'm sure they water it down to stretch it) but it still tastes great! Overall: I would definitely come back... I would like to try some more things on the menu.

    It was okay. Nothing memorable either way. Certainly not the best food, chips are hard/stale and…read moremeat a little dry. Ambience is like an old Wendy's with Mexican stickers in the window. Server was nice and food came out fast. Moving on...
