We started with a half dozen oysters which were super plump and very good. I got the Salmon En Nogada which is a traditional Mexican dish, and our food runner (may have been the manager?) gave us some background on this dish that was really neat to know- it's traditionally made with beef and to celebrate Mexicos independence with the colors of the dish (red, green) and OH MY GOSH talk about flavor. Hands down one of the best salmon dishes I've ever had. My husband had the ribeye aguachile and that was incredible too. We finished off our meal with the tres leches cheesecake which doesn't need much explaining- so good. We will definitely be coming back to enjoy again!

Buck & Rider in Gilbert just earned a spot in our top five restaurants…read more We booked brunch here on a whim while our guests were in town, and it ended up being one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. As parents, one of the first things we notice is the kids' menu--and Buck & Rider absolutely nailed it. Instead of the typical two or three afterthought options, they had an impressive selection of thoughtfully curated meals. Our kids ordered the chicken and rice, and we were blown away by the portion and presentation. It came with chicken, rice, a generous serving of fries, dipping sauce, and fresh grapes. It felt like they actually cared about creating a meal kids would enjoy instead of just checking a box. The food for the adults was just as impressive. The sushi was fantastic, and we ordered one of the large raw bar oyster platters that was incredibly fresh and beautifully presented. Everything we tried was outstanding. The service was warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and family-friendly, which is surprisingly hard to find. Our kids had an amazing time, our guests loved it, and we never felt out of place dining as a family. We'll absolutely be back--and next time, it'll probably be for a date night. Buck & Rider exceeded our expectations in every way, and we can't recommend it enough.

I reserved a table using their Priority Seating Reservations and our party was seated within minutes of arriving. This place lived up to the hype with its fresh catch flown in daily, high-energy atmosphere, and attentive service. It's an ideal setting for casual lunches, celebratory dinners, or group gatherings. I suggest you add Buck & Rider to your need to try list.

I had ice tea and wife ordered the blood orange jenny drink; both were great and refreshing! I also ordered a loaf of their warmed sourdough and butter to share with the table. Almost like being in San Francisco! For dinner we decided to share a couple of things; the crab cakes, which comes with fried avocado and some of the best aioli for dipping. The cakes themselves are big and full of crab with just the right amount of filling to create a decadent and moist cake! We also shared the seared jumbo scallops...High Tides knows how to cook scallops to the best! So yummy and tender and perfectly cooked with that crispy outer and the soft, creamy inside. We also shared a Caesar salad and one of the things we love about this place...ask and you can get some fresh anchovy on the side to add to the salad. Wife always asks for more lemon as well to drizzle over the salad. Overall a fantastic dinner for us and everyone with us!

They were busy at around 10:15pm so we had to wait a bit for a table. We also had a large group of 8 but luckily we were able to get seated. Our server did an amazing job with our large group. Some in the group ordered pan roasts and some ordered crawfish etouffee. My friend also ordered clams. I always get the combo pan roast here. It's a mix of crawfish, shrimp and crab. Choose your spice level from 1-10. I forgot to specify a number and just said "hot" but it was not spicy enough for me. I normally get 7-8. I ended up adding in all the hot sauce options that were on the table plus some chili powder. Now that had a good kick to it. Ask for that! Price for the combo pan roast has doubled from before! It used to be $20, then it slowly increased to $30, and now it's $40! It's good, but I can also make it at home and get more for my money.

Many trips to We Ko Pa, always wanted to try Ember and definitely glad I did last weekend…read more The delightful Amber at Ember was a fantastic server, very attentive to preferences and allergies. Brought us a complimentary glass of bubbly to start the evening and didnt let up on service throughout. Prices are not what you expect from a restaurant of this class, plenty of food. Our table ordered pate de foie gras Lobster bisque Fillet (best she'd had) Pork belly Largest portion of Sea Bass Lamb chops Veggies, potato and spinach So much good food. If I, and I will... did it again. Here's what I would suggest to myself. pate de foie gras is so delicate, TX toast overwhelmed it. The table garlic bread was really good... ill ask for more of that toasted Brocolini, cooked more... was very hard to eat. But definitely 5 stars Ambience is great, space everywhere around, plenty of room between tables, live music in the bar filled the restaurant. Dishes cleaned away as soon as you were finished. Note, therea a beautiful patio and fireplace outside for the cooler weather. Call them to book, credit card needed and they used OpenTable. We were seated on time.

The special crème brûlée unfortunately was off. It was not advertised as having citrus and it was overpowering. If you are into that, then you probably would have loved the crème brûlée. Service was very attentive and friendly. Also the amuse-bouche was a nice touch. The restaurant is well lit and very open. There was a piano player singing and it provided nice ambiance.
