On New Years Eve 2022 my boyfriend and I had a reservation at Budd's. Little did I know he was going to propose with the help of their amazing team. He called ahead of time and spoke to the manager (Can't remember his name). When we got seated he passed the ring to the manager (unbeknownst to me). The French bread and butter was to die for. As well as our drinks!!!! Our dinner was seriously the best meal I have had in Tri-Cities. The steak, potatoes, and seasoned vegetables were AMAZING. Once we were ready for the bill, a waiter came and set down a decorated plate with our dessert and the box with the ring. He poured us champagne and started recording. Once I realized what was going on my now husband, got up to propose. They filmed the whole thing and made it the best night of my life. I HIGHLY recommend Budd's to any and everyone. It is an expensive meal but you get what you pay for and even more. read more

Was in the area for work and decided to stop here for an extremely early dinner. Glad I did. They have some good specials but opted for the surf and turf menu. At $21.95, it was a pretty good deal! I ordered the steak and half lobster tail. The steak was cooked to my liking and lobster was great - no complaints. I ask I got a half portion of the steakhouse wedge. It's nothing amazing but not bad. I was really impressed with the staff though-extremely nice and accommodating!! Great customer service!! I asked my waitress (forgot her name but she was AWESOME) about the size of the steakhouse wedge. She was able to provide a half portion since she usually recommends that people should split it. When my entree came out, the staff also asked immediately if my steak was to my liking. I really appreciate that! If I'm in the area I would definitely come again and try other items, especially their HH specials read more

If you're a steakhouse fanatic, Budd's Broiler will leave you disappointed! Everyone who knows steak knows that Prime select cut meats are the best quality. YOU WILL NOT BE SERVED PRIME SELECT STEAKS AT BUDDS. YOU WILL PAY PRIME PRCES BUT YOULL BE LUCKY TO GET CHOICE SELECT. BUDDS success is dependent on its customers not knowing the difference between average and high-quality steaks. GO TO MORTONS!!! read more

Budd's has quite good food, and has a bit more of a refined ambiance than most places you'd go in the Tri-cities. They also do live music sometimes, which is a cool bonus. Interestingly, the menu is exactly the same as Anthony's - and even uses an Anthony's menu. I ordered the Surf n Turf for $25, which included steak, a lobster tail, baked potato and vegetables and it was pretty good and a stellar value. The service was also very refined, patient and generous. I am giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 because I was hoping to get some kind of mushroom dish on the appetizer menu, but didn't see one. That would be something good to add. read more

Budds Broiler is definitely one of the best happy hour/ restaurants in the Tricities. The calamari appetizer is excellent, smaller portions but very tasty. Their signature top sirloin was near perfection in cooking. The sides are outstanding and portions are respectable. The snake river Wagyu sirloin was supremely tasty cooked how I like it. Very tender and exceptional cut. The over all environment here is upper class casual, relaxed ambiance, live music on the weekends (great local bands). Patio seating during warm months with nice views of the river. Large selection of alcohol and wine. Happy hour until 7p which is later than most other places. read more

Had dinner here for my father in laws 90th birthday. The prime rib is AMAZING. Staff is always spot on and food never disappoints. Love going here for special occasions or the occasional getaway from the kiddos. read more

If you're looking for a special dining experience, this is not it. We made reservations for our group of 8 a month in advance. This restaurant is on the water, and instead of being seated in the main dining area, we were seated in a separate meeting room. This was very disappointing. The food was less than impressive. I had the steak oscar. Under seasoned steak (Wagyu beef that was somehow tough), (fresh?) crab, and nearly flavorless bearnaise sauce. This restaurant is owned by Anthony's, which is down the road just a little further, and have eaten a very good steak there before, so I'm not sure what the problem is. We won't be back to Bud's. read more

Nice place, good service and okay food. They need to hire a chef or give the one they have more freedom to create.

My wife and I love going to Budd's Broiler. The ambience is amazing, the service and s great, and the food is outstanding! The thick cut pork chop is succulent, tasty and cooked to perfection. We have been twice and have been equally impressed each time. read more

4 strikes and I'm out. I have tried Budd's quite a few times now and every time I order a steak it is severely under cooked. I have given enough chances and thought I would mention the issues. For a steak house to use just the temperature of the meat doesn't cut it for the customers. When ordering a steak cooked medium there should be a specific feel and look to the meat and that doesn't happen here. I have gone most of my life enjoying a good cut of meat cooked medium rare/medium and I order medium here hoping that it will be cooked at least up to the medium rare mark but it isn't. The last attempt was on 12/31/2019 and that is the last steak I will attempt to order from Budd's. A medium steak came our rare and was sent back asking for medium and when it made it back to the table it still wasn't close to what I ordered. The server and manager both attempted to see if I wanted anything in it's place so they did their part but the cooks should really know how to cook a steak to order at a steak house. I will go back for the drinks and appetizers but unfortunately not a steak. read more

Very good service and food. However very expensive at the same time. I think we should give Budds another try.

Love Budd's! We love the Restaurant's Dining Room, especially when their Sommelier, Eric, is there! We also truly enjoy being outside for dinner or "Happy Hour". A fun & beautiful restaurant with a fantastic view. A fine asset to Columbia Point. Carol P read more

I ate in the bar during happy hour (which goes to 7pm) and enjoyed it. Had some really tasty sliders (they have 3 varieties: beef, chicken and meatloaf which is hella good). Drinks were good, service excellent and the decor gave it a sort of upscale nautical vibe(they are right on the Columbia River walk). I'd probably go 5 stars if I stayed for a full meal but alas, the jury is still out for for me as far as the dining experience goes. read more

Good place to eat. I did not get a great experience because my burger was served with the cheese paper inside of the cooked burger. I didn't noticed until I was actually eating the burger and felt the paper inside my mouth. The lady helping us, didn't change the burger she asked me if I wanted her to take the paper out for me? She took the plate, took the paper out and gave me back the same burger. I just didn't like that, but my co-workers eating with had a great experience with their food. One of my coworker suggested to the lady helping us with the food if I could get a dessert free because what happened since I didn't eat my burger at all. And the restaurant gave me a dessert for free. But still, I just didn't feel the concerned of the lady to give me a good service. Her attitude was not great. read more

Went for the happy hour to get a feel for the ambiance and traffic flow. Started off with a couple of libations, didn't have to wait that long. Went ahead and ordered some apps off their happy menu. The waygu sliders were ordered medium rate, came well done. Bland with no effort put into bringing out anything in the beef. Meatloaf sliders had some decent flavor to them. Mushrooms had a great flavor. Potato skins were too undercooked for my taste. Finished the night with their "burnt cream" (I've never seen a restaurant word crème brûleé in this manner) which was obviously pulled out of a fridge without even being heated on top. Oh well. All in all $100 that I think I'd spend on sushi next time I head out on a date night. read more

First, the elephant in the room: the prices are HIGH. Look at a menu online before you go, be ready for the food/drink price and tip. If you cant afford it and be happy, go elsewhere. I read several reviews and they went OFF about the price. It is what it is for a reason folks. This is not applebees or sizzler. Now that that is out of the way, food presentation, atmosphere staff, the view? All top of the top. This is a place for memories with your significant other, not where you celebrate your kids' 7th birthday. Had the tri-tip, excellently done. The sides well complimented the beef. I have friends who have gone through culinary school who would not find fault with it. If I come back, I am bringing my wife! read more

September 21, 2018 Budd's Broiler is one of my "go to" spots when it comes to something of a fine dining atmosphere. For this last meal, we took advantage of their Early Bird special. There was so much food, we didn't know how we were going to finish it all. I could tell you about everything we had, but I'll just leave it to the meat loaf. This meat loaf was so delicious, it is probably in my top four all time meat loaves in my life. Long story short. The food is delicious. The service was on point. instagram: _shotandabeer facebook: shotandabeerdotcom read more

Greeted with big smiles, service was good, food was very good. Prices were average considering its an Anthony's restaurant. Salmon chowder was AMAZING. London Broil was cooked perfectly. Would definitely visit again next time we are in Richland. read more

I love this place but don't eat there as much as I'd like just due to the price. It's not out of line for the quality but it's a lot for a weekly expense.....that is until I discovered the happy hour menu! I mean, honestly it's full of options and the peach dessert is enough to feed 4 people. The mule is good, the view is better. I'll be going more often now that I can eat their delicious food without breaking the bank. read more

The food was pretty good. We had some apps, and drinks, and they were all OK. But the wait time to get our drink and food orders were crazy long. The place was not busy either. Good food. Slow service. Nice location. read more

Had delayed Father's day dinner with family last night, June 22. Ate the biggest steak of my life, shared several bites of it with rest of family of 6, menu had said good to be shared by 2, so except for one person rest had their own orders. I had to have it again for breakfast today. Attentive waiter, but at the same time left us enough so we could talk. all Places are short staffed but I think he did a good job, came in at 630 pm with no reservations left at closing time. I think we'll make it a family Father's Day tradition but 3 people will share the tomahakw steak next time. Appetizers of shaking beef and Brie and fruit were very good, whole family only had one slice of strawberry cheese cake and I guess the old Anthony's tradition of offering the bread left over at the end of day to the last customers to take home does not apply here. read more

I have been going here for 3 years, and really enjoy their food , but more importantly their attentive and friendly service. Also have nice selection of liquor, beer, and wine. read more

We had a great dinner on Friday and enjoyed their Early-Bird specials. Enjoyed cocktails on the outdoor patio and listened to live music. An excellent night and we'll be back soon. read more

The service was fantastic but the food was sub par. Small portions and dinner was luke warm upon arrival. We got the 7 oz sirloin and the early bird London broil. London broil had a weird cranberry jalapeño sauce with a hint of taco seasoning and was uninspiring. The sirloin had a good flavor and was cooked correctly, just was a bit cold- like it had sat under a heat lamp for a minute. Overall underwhelming experience. Wish the portions were a little larger on the appetizer. Cowboy cavier was good and calamari was fresh. Definitely will try again, just bummed it was so expensive and not an excellent experience. read more

Exceeded expectations! Had excellent food, drinks and service! Gorgeous view of the Columbia river. The tomahawk is a must! read more

Budd's Broiler - Anniversary dinner - Steakhouses Near Me - Richland, Washington

Good food and nice restaurant. Not good for special occasions as they do nothing too make it special. Service was preoccupied with large group so poured my own wine and went without water. Steak, salmon, and duck at our table were all cooked perfectly and was delicious. read more

Here in town to celebrate our 20th anniversary. Had a great meal at Anthony's the night before and was recommended to try Budd's. Waitress was nice but my drink order was wrong twice. Baked potatoes were not hot. Our pork chop and ribeye were real good. We were hounded when we finished the salad by the bus boy, barely set the fork down. Then again when my wife finished her dinner he was right there, asking to clear it. My wife finished her wine and again he was right there. We asked to leave us alone until we left! We go to Anthony's in Everett, Anacortes and Des Moines and we have never had any issues. And the hostess? I've run out of room. Please take a look at what's going on there. read more

If anyone is still curious, while Budd's begged for my contact info, I provided it, and not less than 3 follow up attempts by me, not a single employee of Budd's of any title ever contacted me. Interestingly, Budd's typically replies on Yelp with the same appeals for private contact info but no follow up posting. Text book reply and forget it seems to be how Budd's manages Yelp. Absolutely true in my experience. read more

Great restaurant. I sat in the bar area very nice. Food was good and close walk to my hotel. I had dinner both of the nights I was in town. Will go back. read more

Overpriced over salted basic food wife had the sirloin was cooked perfect carrots were chopped shredded and sliced and bland No craft beer in the northwest really Burger was ok but the fries had enough salt for 10 orders The calamari tasted like fried wontons Baked potato was good but butter was frozen Not impressed not the birthday dinner I wanted for my wife read more

Worst service ever! Went for my birthday with another couple. Buddies wife is allergic to seafood, they screwed up her order twice, and then the manager said if he wanted to complain after scraping seafood off her steak he can go outside we were asked to leave. Used to be my favorite hence the birthday, bad management in this town is unacceptable. Good luck, we had also had a reservation for my dad's birthday today and will never be back. Been two weeks since Taylor said they would contact us and no response. Great job! read more

We eat at Budds about once a month, the early bird specials rock! It's very good food in a laid back but upscale environment. The creme brûlée is incredible and the views are perfect at sunset. You can go here for a candlelight dinner or just a nice date. Budds helps out local farmers and uses fresh ingredients in season, making the courses to choose from exciting and different. Call first to see if there's a wait, I recommend reservations. read more

Our server was OK. We received our drinks promptly. The meals were rather spendy. I felt that the steaks should have been a better quality for the price paid. read more

Sir or Madam, My companion and I visited the Badger Mountain Vineyard and received Cameron's suggestion for supper. Arriving at Bud's Broiler we admired the view out back and noted that only one party was seated on the patio. We walked past the patio and into the bar where we met the receptionist. She offered us seating in the bar or the dining room. Selecting a booth in the dining room, we left our belongings and visited the restrooms to wash up. When my companion finished, we walked back toward our booth but were met at the receptionist stand by one who I conclude must be an assistant manager who would not permit us to be reseated without a reservation that he refused to make for that evening or any other. Though I stressed that we had already been seated by the receptionist already without one, he turned us away stating, "This is what happens when you seat yourself." We were turned out like so much trash but had an extremely favorable experience at Boiada Brazilian Grill by everyone in its employ. Take your business elsewhere; you'll be glad you did! read more

The burger obviously is not kobe since certified kobe is only avilable at select locations in the US. Its probably waigu (sp) beef. But it is still good. Hubby had filet mignon and shrimp and loved it. My burger was a nice splurge. I wouldnt spend 20 bux on a burger very often. But when you want to splurge a little and have some good meat give Budds a try! read more

While it was opening night, a few things were still off. First, my drink order was not right. When the replacement arrived, it was quite watered down. Unfortunate for a $12 dirty martini. I ordered a Caesar salad which was presented beautifully and impractically and was decidedly overdressed. Fortunately, I was able to limit its impact on my meal after two pieces of bread. Additionally, I can understand that many steakhouses offer a la carte sides but the decision to make them "family sized" and not offer an alternative for a single diner was disappointing. The steak was cooked properly, but I was asked to cut into it immediately upon delivery to verify. I prefer not to have my dining pace dictated by a restaurant who is simultaneously not confident in its ability to cook a steak to temperature and eminently confident in its ability to command a premium price for said steak. I am unlikely to return short of a head injury inflicted by the impact of a bag of money. A post script...what a treat to see a server cough a loose cough directly into her hand, then return immediately to her closing sidework...rolling silver. I wish the remaining week's visitors a swift recovery from your pending chest colds! read more

So all 4 steaks overcooked. Sent 3 back. Then they charged us for the replacements. They didn't take back the sides to keep them warm. 2nd time wasn't the charm either but it was time to eat. I feel bad for the server because the manager ruined her night and ours. They did comp the sides but ... Don't overpay for the NY Strip or any other higher priced cut on the menu. Do 6 ounce filet and order raw for medium rare.... read more

The drinks and appetizers were pretty good when it came to the entrées me and my girlfriend both got the ribeye it was each $52 you got a tiny steak with a lot of silver skin was not cooked to how we liked it very poor value. Seasoning was okay the waiters were attentive and good. If your looking for a steak this is not the place to go. There was no crust on the steak and very thin. read more

My husband and I felt differently about our experience. We started in the lounge as we had about 30 minutes before our reservation. We both agreed that our server there was quite inattentive. Had a difficult time ordering. The hostess came to get us for our reservation and let us know it would be a few minutes for a window seat which was fine. After nearly 30 minutes we had to check as we were still waiting. She forgot about us. The server in the restaurant did a great job. A little disappointed at how she explained what "medium" and "medium rare" was. It was not consistent with what we were served. My husband had the New York strip and greatly enjoyed it. I had the rib eye and didn't care for it at all. I thought it was dry and a bit tough. It was kind of difficult to eat. I actually didn't eat very much if it because it was so expensive that I thought it would be better to save for my husband than waste it trying to eat when I didn't care for it. I really like tomatoes but the tomatoes served with the dinners had green olives which I do not care for at all. They are so juicy that the flavor permitted through the tomatoes and ruined them for me. Before tip the bill was $211 - I am home now and need to find something to eat because I am hungry - the food wasn't worth eating for me. I wish someone would have checked in and asked about our experience. I do not foresee returning. read more
