Great restaurant with tons of ambience. Classy but not snobby. We loved everything about this place except for the noise level. The wait staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. Our dishes were delectable in pretty to the eye. It's no wonder so many folks love this place.

I took my wife to lunch here for our first time today. I ordered the famous fish sandwich and she got the fish tacos. Going in I had pretty high expectations. The famous fish sandwich was a small sandwich and didn't have much flavor. The fish tacos were also small and honestly not very good. The food left alot to be desired especially at this price point. The inside of the restaurant was very nice so I'm giving it 2 stars.

We have been wanting to go here for years and finally made it for my birthday last month. Food and atmosphere were fantastic. It is a loud and vibrant place which we enjoy. If you’re looking for quiet, this is not it. However our reservation was late evening so it did quiet down after the big crowd cleared out. Filet was excellent and cooked perfectly. Oysters were great as well as the muscles. If oysters are your thing this is your place!! I don’t think these adjectives describe the experience well enough. Just go, you won’t be disappointed. Our waitress was great and attentive. I think her name was Cheyenne. Birthday macaroons were melt in your mouth yumminess! I forgot to get more photos, too busy enjoying the evening and food!

The service was incredible for how crazy busy it was (Oyster Day) They were clearly well trained. The oysters were fresh and sooo good. I couldn't help myself I had to get the shrimp ceviche and I was not disappointed. The drinks had so much flavor. The Bobby Love surprised me. I took the lemon meringue to go since I was stuffed with oysters. It was huge and decadent! 10/10 would go again and again!!

My boyfriend and I are visiting from Michigan. We wanted to have dinner to celebrate my birthday. I just stumbled upon Buck & Rider looking for suggestions online. We were so pleased with our dinner picks this evening. Everything was beyond phenomenal! Our server Shelby was super attentive, made great suggestions, and made sure everything was perfect. Not only was the service great, but the food was SO GOOD!!! The best salmon I have ever had. My only complaint is that I wish I didn’t live so far away ???? thank you for the wonderful drinks, food, and dining experience. Truly a great night!!

We decided to go to Buck and Rider during the week and we were so glad that we did. This place is always packed and the best time to go here is during the weekday around happy hour time. We ordered dozen oysters and we were impressed with the variety on their menu. We ended up sharing the king salmon nigiri, deluxe spicy tuna roll row, and seafood risotto.
If you are looking for a great seafood experience in Scottsdale then this is the place to be. Great atmosphere, drinks, and food selections. Highly recommend for those that are looking for a fun time!

Greeted by a bonnie girl from Australia with a lovely accent, great start.
Sat very quickly. I think our server might have been having a bad day as we got off to a short start, it improved quickly. The food was all fresh and delicious. The fish was a bit small but had a good flavor. The Cole slaw was amazing with a unique flavor that was fresh and enjoyable. The chips were fine, more American then British, meaning thin not thick. They did bring malt vinegar!
The beignets were great and not great. Some were not cooked all through. The French toast was pretty good lots of fresh fruit. The sushi while fresh was a bit too new age for my tastes. It has fruit and or nuts. The prices were what you would expect for the type and quality.
Overall a good experience.

Wow! The food was awesome!!! We ordered a lot of items and they were all good. I got the 16oz ribeye and 1/2 a lobster and it was worth every penny. My wife got the Mary's Pam roasted chicken and it was also good. The staff was nice and the manager came to our table ans0d asked if everything was great. We had good service from starting from the valet, hostess, wait staff manager. Highly recommend.
Please beware that you will have to valet park. Our 1st time there so we drive in and went all the way in the parking lot not knowing there is a 1 way. Had to back out and valet.

So glad I came to this establishment while vacationing in Phoenix. From the moment I arrived, the service was impeccable. Finely prepared dishes, fresh flavors, and very good drinks will make this a repeat visit every time I'm in town.

We’ve been here before many times. Nevertheless, My taste buds still sing from every visit! Everything was simply decadent. After my meal, I was knocked into a food coma, as this the best part/compliment of any great meal! Always a great experience!
