I had one of my best birthday dinner dinners at Buck and Rider tonight. We all had excellent food…read moreand I think my scallops are the best in the valley. The restaurant is lively, but you receive your order quickly and perfectly. Our waiter Chase took great care of us and offered suggestions and descriptions about the food. Chris came by to make sure everything was to our liking and to wish me a happy birthday. We all had a great time, a great meal and did not feel like they were trying to rush us out of the door. I would definitely recommend this restaurant for the freshest seafood, steaks, and even hamburger.

We were celebrating our four year anniversary with a date night dinner. I had heard lots of good…read morethings about Buck & Rider and wanted to give it a try, despite not being the biggest seafood fan in the world. We arrived around 6:15 for our priority seating reservation, which wasn't until 630 but considering we didn't know what parking would be like we wanted to ensure we were there on time. We waited outside the restaurant since it was pretty crowded on the inside waiting space, they had cool water jugs for those of us not wanting to order a drink while we were waiting. Our table was ready around the same time for our reservation, and we were waited on attentively upon sitting down. I believe our waiter's name was Lorenzo, we had expressed that this was our first time and we also were wanting to try oysters for the first time so he gave us good recommendations on which one would be a good fit for us. We ended up trying the sweet Jesus oysters, and of course I am not a fan, but my husband was willing to give it another shot another day. I think one of the biggest positives about it being a mostly seafood base restaurant as it doesn't smell like a seafood restaurant normally does, the environment aspires to be romantic. However, the noise level really makes it difficult to hear whoever you're with. My husband was sitting literally shoulder to shoulder with me, and I struggled immensely to carry on meaningful conversation because of competing with other tables noise levels. The fish was cooked to perfection and the lemon butter sauce was to die for, the broccolini was delicious as well. My husband enjoyed his fish however he did say that for the price we paid for the fish he thinks the fillet should've been bigger. He also enjoyed his asparagus side. They were able to arrange the sign to say happy anniversary to us, I just don't have the picture since it's on my husband's phone. We celebrated the end of our dinner experience with a slice of chocolate cake, which was so delicious, and the pistachio gelato. Overall, it was a good dining experience, but it will definitely be a while before we return due to it being a more pricey dining option as well as the loud environment. * side notes: *parking is valet, only which is complementary, if you don't have cash, your valet attendant can take Venmo as a tip form. *Bathrooms are extremely clean, men and women, but women's has only two stalls so you may be waiting a while.

We ate at Playa Hermosa here in Phoenix and overall had a really good experience. We ordered the…read moretaco mar y tierra, aguachile verde, and camarones roca. The highlights for me were definitely the camarones roca and the aguachile verde. The camarones roca were fire -- crispy, creamy, flavorful, and super addicting. Honestly, I could come back just for those alone. The aguachile verde was also really fresh, with a nice spicy kick and that bright citrus flavor you want in a good aguachile. The taco mar y tierra had good ingredients and flavor, but I did feel like it was missing a sauce or something extra to bring it all together. Still good, just not as memorable as the camarones roca and aguachile. The staff was great too -- friendly, welcoming, and attentive. The ambiance and vibe of the place were also on point, making it a great spot to sit down, enjoy some mariscos, and have a good time. Overall, great mariscos spot in Phoenix and definitely worth checking out.

It was my first time visiting this restaurant with a party of 10, and unfortunately, the experience…read morewas not great. The service was okay, but the staff lacked friendliness and didn't seem very welcoming. As for the food, some dishes were good while others were disappointing. Overall, the flavor was lacking for me, and many of the dishes just didn't stand out. Another issue we ran into was the parking situation. The parking lot is very small, and we had to park outside of it, which was inconvenient for a large group. Overall, my experience was not the best, and I wouldn't be coming back.

I love how casual it is despite the delicious and fresh seafood, it's a great place for a casual lunch or dinner with your friends or family. We ordered the chef's hand roll, and fish taco from the Sunday all day happy hour menu, these items cannot be ordered to go so we ended up eating our entire meal at the restaurant which was fine. I think the hand roll was scallop, and this is the first thing we ate. You could immediately taste the freshness and the simplicity of the ingredients really elevated the dishes, our fish taco was also phenomenal. I also got the clam chowder which was good but not note worthy. The salmon poke bowl was incredibly fresh. They added a lot of unique ingredients like watermelon radish (not a fan btw). The main was definitely the fish which you could just taste the freshness, again it's very simple dish with not a ton of seasoning because the star of the show is the seafood. The rice tasted a little bit stale maybe, but not too bad. I really enjoyed how fresh the fish was.

One piece of fish was huge, and just a bit too greasy for me. Fries were delicious when dipping them into the dill tartar sauce! Coleslaw was great. Next time, I think I'll skip the heavily fried food and try to eat something a bit healthier. Although those fries with the dill tartar sauce were so tasty!

One of the best fish and shrimp tacos I've ever had! We had 2 combos with the tea and 2 quesadillas…read more(1 with only cheese and 1 with shrimp). Everything we got was so good. So fresh.

The truck was inside a car repair garage, right across from the Kroc Center. It kind of looks like it's not there, but you'll see the lights from their set up. There were clean chairs and tables. And they had a swamp cooler, which would be so perfect when it gets too hot in Phoenix.

We had the very old fashioned, a rhubarb cocktail, and a local beer from Wren House next door. For the meal, we didn't know what to expect but the host was great at laying out each course as it arrived and the food came out perfectly timed.

Even my 11 year old was eating foods I never thought he'd entertain trying! I'll be coming back and highly recommend the flan, the salmon crudo, and the steak with the Japanese sweet potatoes. If you can, definitely do the 4 course!! I don't have any photos because we absolutely demolished everything that was put in front of us.
