We sat outside and listened to music while we dined and it was fantastic. Gazing on the cornfield, talking among friends, listening to the duo, a glass of wine... does it get better? The only snafu was when the waitress loss track of her tray and the beverages came tumbling down. One red wine spilled on my navy jacket so that wasn't too bad. Stuff happens. But the unfortunate misstep came when she brought towels to clean up the cement patio and forgot about my jacket. I had to ask for water and a towel to clean it myself and she forgot about that too. I made my napkin and glass of water into a makeshift cleaning station to clean up so it worked. Then I needed to explain to her that I needed a new napkin and glass of water. She barely reacted and said, "Oh yea, I forgot." We made it very easy on her and said, "No worries. It's all taken care of." The thing that strikes me is that management should work on training the waitstaff to be more helpful, to have more empathy and to give out more of a feeling of, "I feel your pain." They probably should have come out themselves and offered the same sentiment which would have been great training for the young lady.

I had the baby-back ribs, and my wife had the planked salmon. She raved about the mushroom risotto and said that the salmon was delicious and prepared to her liking. My ribs fell off the bone, the meat was tender with good flavor, and the sauce was spicy-sweet. Worth mentioning our waitress was exceptionally good, attentive, and spot-on with food delivery, etc.

We were there on Mother's Day with my elderly mother-in-law. We love Buck & Honeys, the food, the atmosphere and the service. There is one reason why I hesitate to return and that is because the live music was too loud. I liked the music genre but the level of the sound made it difficult to visit comfortably. Background music is fine, but remember it's not supposed to be a concert.
