For my husband's birthday, he requested barbecue, and a colleague of his recommended Papa Bear's…read moreBBQ. We decided to try it, and it exceeded our expectations. We ordered the Papa Bear's Sampler, which offers an excellent variety of meats along with two sides. While it is described as serving two people (or one very hearty appetite), the portion size is extremely generous. It would take quite an appetite to finish it in one sitting. The meats were tender, flavorful, and perfectly prepared, and the sides were equally impressive--especially the potato salad. In fact, the sampler provided enough food for two full meals for my husband and me. I am particularly selective about potato salad, as I have always compared it to my grandmother's recipe, and few have come close. Papa Bear's BBQ is a rare exception. In addition to the outstanding food, the staff was welcoming and attentive, and the pricing was very reasonable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we look forward to returning.

This time I decided to try something else and tried the Slow Roasted Prime Rib French Dip as well as sharing the Grilled Shrimp Cocktail which I had previously and it's always delicious. My friend ordered the Some Like it Hot burger without the bun. The French Dip was the best I ever had - absolutely mouthwatering and what was I thinking of only ordering salad previously! I tasted my friend's burger and it was top notch. The fries were so delicious and I'm one who usually avoids fried food but I have been craving them since. The food is really what speaks to me in this establishment. The atmosphere is that of a sports bar without windows but the main ceiling is pretty high. It's definitely a sports bar with a separate Football Menu. There is usually live music or Trivia which was on the last night I was there. It's a great casual place for Gold Canyon residents/snow birds to gather. The service is always impeccable and you will always be greeted to the door and offered a table. Servers are quite attentive to the patrons.

When we went here five years ago, this place really surprised us and was very good. We've been back…read moreprobably 3 more times since and it's been very disappointing every time. This last visit will be the last time I dine here. We went yesterday a little after 3 pm, the place was maybe a 1/4 full. Oyr server was nice enough and took our order fairly quickly. I ordered a Bloody Mary based on it first time dining here, what a dissappointment; putting three green olives on a toothpick is really lame, especially at $12. Our food took forever, well over 40 minutes. At one point I asked our server what was going on, she gave a lame excuse which makes me think someone messed up. None of our burgers came out as ordered; we ordered them medium and they were all well done. They had no flavor, just really not good. So, that's the final straw for me here.

Buck & Rider had been on my list for a while, and after finally visiting for the first time, I can…read moreconfidently say this is one of Gilbert's more polished upscale dining experiences -- with some serious highs, a few notable misses, and one category they absolutely crushed. First impressions matter, and Buck & Rider delivers there. The ambiance is gorgeous -- both inside and out on the patio. Think modern, elegant, upscale coastal vibe with a stunning bar, clean design, lively but not chaotic energy, and the kind of atmosphere that works equally well for a date night, celebratory dinner, or an elevated family night out. Easy 4.5-5/5 for ambiance alone. We had reservations, were greeted promptly by the hostess team, and seated within about 10 minutes, which is reasonable for a busy upscale restaurant. Since this was our first visit, I really appreciated our server taking the time to walk us through the menu, explain how everything worked, and help us navigate the options without making us feel rushed. That level of attentiveness immediately elevated the experience. And honestly? Service was the MVP here. Every course came out efficiently, timing was excellent, and we never had that awkward "did our server disappear into witness protection?" moment. Professional, polished, warm, and highly efficient. Easy 5/5 stars for service. We decided to try the Restaurant Week menu, which gave us a nice sampling of the experience. Appetizers: This is where things got a little shaky. I ordered the Caesar salad, and I hate to be dramatic... but this may have been one of the most disappointing Caesar salads I've had at a restaurant in this price range. 0/5. Yes, zero. Completely forgettable and surprisingly underwhelming. My mom tried the Voodoo Rice, which had a lot of hype in other reviews, so expectations were definitely elevated. Unfortunately, it landed squarely in "just okay" territory. 3/5. Not bad, but surprisingly bland and not nearly as exciting as the name suggests. Sides: Unfortunately, the side dishes didn't do much to improve things. The chilled beets & green beans were a 1/5 for me -- visually fine, but flavor-wise very underwhelming and not something I'd ever order again. The charred asparagus was slightly better, but still pretty forgettable at 2/5. For a restaurant executing at this price point, I expected much more from the supporting cast. Main Course: Now THIS is where Buck & Rider completely redeemed itself. We both ordered the Filet Mignon, cooked medium, and wow -- these were outstanding. Perfect temperature, incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. I'm assuming they use some kind of seasoning blend or rub because these filets honestly had more flavor than many steakhouses I've visited, which is saying something. Easy 5/5 stars. Hands-down the highlight of the entire meal. Dessert: We both finished with the house-made pistachio ice cream paired with a house-made cookie, and this was a strong ending. The pistachio flavor was rich without being overpowering, and the warm/fresh cookie complemented it perfectly. Simple, well-executed, and satisfying. 4/5 stars. Overall: Buck & Rider earns a solid 4.0/5 stars from me. The ambiance is beautiful. The service is elite-level. The filet mignon absolutely delivers. But several weaker dishes (especially the Caesar and sides) kept this from entering true 5-star territory -- because when paying premium prices, consistency across every course matters. Would I come back? Absolutely. Would I order the filet again? Without hesitation. Would I let the Caesar anywhere near my table? Only if it came with an apology.

I understand when things go wrong or take longer. Please tell your diners why there is a hold up. I'd much prefer that than. Itching and watch people who arrived after us being served before us with similar dishes I might add. When in the area I may try again. The place has a cute country theme. However, I will probably try another establishment before I come back. If I could give 3.5 I would. They deserve that.

It deserves THAT. And I feel we all deserve this as well. A potato can be handled well no matter its size and taste fantastic - why can't the steakhouse cooks (imagine the possibility of upping one's gain by studying the art of cooking the perfect potato so as each patron talks about "That dreamy soft potato! When can we all go back?" Up North owners went head to head for the best steak. Now we all KNOW if one place is too busy it's a delight to hit up our second choice. It's not so much about the food then, it's about "Who will not see, or see?" "What kind of music is playing tonight? Do you want to wait to be seated?" Or is it "Honey I don't care. They're all really good!" That's what locals who live here want. A steakhouse we bring ourselves to. Food that keeps us wanting to go even when it's 110° at 6:30pm. If we home cooks can take an average steak and wow our wives or hubbies...so can our local AJ steakhouse. If the owner is tired, I get it. If the cooks are tired, I get it. But I kind of feel like there's no room for subpar meals in this market. I'd rather be told "The great ribeyes are here! Don't be late as we will sell out." "Our salads this week will be memorably upbeat and crisp! How about a little pear slice added with an EVOO & pear BALSALMIC vinaigrette dressing with or with blue cheese and croutons? Trust me, THAT SALAD brings it, brings people, add chicken on top or sliced steak, and I'm there every 7-8 days all Summer long. Mammoth is about breathing. And staring at the mountain. Alone or with someone. About chatting. And meeting up. It's the party place with a view. Or a quiet meetup. I'm unsure who is missing out on more. U.S.? Or 'them.' More sales. Heavier tips. I think it's all possible and doable. Here's the kicker - the steakhouse does not even have to rebrand. It's a good deal. I know not one person who doesn't like flavor. And a smile. Half portion size options on a few items keeps all ages coming back. A plate for two people to share?....one plate. Two forks n knives, no extra charge? Shared by two people who understand the joy & mindfulness lesson other people in countries practice often - is a positive expenditure most couples both young and old. AN Entree box. Plus box 2 for 1 side or 2 sides or 3. A nice piece of bread, 2 options. Where's the historically beloved ranch shredded pit beef dinner, with barracho pinto beans, a potato and tortilla? I'm looking forward to the day. Love this place. It's not wrong to want to see more joy. I sat at the bar alone. With a family member. Invited others. Outside or inside...at the bar. I've talked to some of the long timers of AJ and other natives. Met people from all over. Invest in your people and I predict a happy future together and more lovely conversations. A few big outdoor coolers might not hurt anyone. Even the hard working staff! It might not be historic but.......thats ok from after Easter thru September. Newcomers? Come on by. Try it. Enjoy it. Have a cold beer and some food. Enjoy a traditional cocktail served up your way. Have some fun. It's good. Ask for what you'd love to see on the menu. Leave the owner an idea. Just remember it's a historic atmosphere and venue. I take everyone here. But quality on my plate is still a must. A lamb chop from the good old USA was indeed historical in AZ way back....hint hint.
