My wife and I rode passed this restaurant yesterday and we couldn’t believe how crowded it was at 5pm. So, we decided to get up and get lunch to checkout the hype. Well……simply delicious. Tri-Tip burger was simply delicious. Grilled veggies banging and I don’t eat mushrooms but I ate them. Along with the red peppers, zucchini, and sweet potatoes. Food was so good and we will return.

We tried Buckhorn BBQ this weekend at an event at the Heringer winery.

I’m not 100% sure of the affiliation between the store front and the food truck as it’s a pretty basic menu.

I opted for the Tri Tip. My wife opted for the chicken sandwich. I’ll try presentation wise, it looked very plain. It was literally just shaved tri tip and carmelized onions. No pickles or jalepenos or anything else to give mix up the texture. While the meat itself was flavorful and, it was a salt bomb and it was borderline inedible The caramelized onions were really flavorful though. And the bun was nice and fresh.

The charbroiled sandwich was really good. It had a nice flavor and it was juicy and not dry. The tomato and lettuce are kind of an afterthought and the lettuce ended up getting steamed. Again, some pickles or acidity would have gone a long way. Or even chipotle mayo or something else to balance it. It was a nice portion size though and the wife really enjoyed it.

Fries were super basic and frozen. If you only have like 4 menu items, you’d think you could make some fresh fries?

The sauce selection was skimpy. Two BBQ sauces and horseradish. One of the BBQs was overly sweet. The other was decent.

All in all, it was a filling meal. The Tri Tip really left something to be desired though. You have another BBQ competitor (Brody’s) near the winery whose Tri Tip is really really good. Something to consider.

Service was friendly, so that bumped up the score as well.

3.5/5

Food = 5 stars
Tri tip is deliciously seasoned. Medium well is perfection.
Broccoli salad is very good.
Garden salad is crisp and fresh.
Corn bread is oh so good had 6 pieces extra to go.

Service is great!
Ambiance is great as well

Nice and clean looking restaurant. I didn’t have to wait long to order. The staff came by after we were eating to ask if all was ok. The food was just too salty. I’ve never heard of putting salt on Onion Rings…it really ruined the fried flavor. I also had the burnt tri tip which was just too salty. I really wanted to ask for a refund but didn’t want to bother with the hassle. Oh not sure if they can fix this but the music selection wasn’t good.

Stopped in and as always, was a great experience. The atmosphere is so welcoming, the music is not too loud and they serve my favorite seltzer Happy Dad fruit punch!!

I’ve been a regular customer at Buckhorn BBQ + Grill for a long time and have always loved their menu, which is why it’s disappointing to write this review.
On February 4th, I ordered a burger well done, but when I received it, it was not cooked well done at all. The fries were also cold. Because of this, I didn’t touch my burger or fries and asked for a refund. Unfortunately, they only refunded the burger and not the fries, even though the fries were cold and part of the same unsatisfactory meal.
It’s really sad to see the food quality and service declining, especially as a loyal customer who genuinely enjoys their menu. I hope they take feedback seriously and work on improving both their food consistency and customer service.

Buckhorn has always been one of the staples in downtown Sac, and still is the prefect spot for barbecue cuisine. The staff has always been friendly, including at other locations as well, the restaurant environment is modern and welcoming. Takeout, which is what I usually prefer, allows for you to pick up quality food if you are in a rush. I ordered the tri tip sliders side and broccoli salad, tri tip is always a bomb

The meat is amazing but I was shocked at the size of the side veggies . The frying pan in their picture online must be 4” around.

We ordered the 2 meat combo with Salmon, Ribs, Mac n cheese, onion rings, and tri tip burger. The salmon was plain no flavor and overcooked, the ribs were dry, the mac n cheese lacked flavor. The onions rings were really good the best I’ve had so far, seasoned well and batter was light. The burger had a good char grilled flavor to it and not overcooked but not as juicy as I would have liked it. They do charge for extra ranch which I didn’t like.

Let me start by saying I have been a buckhorn patron for over a decade. I have ordered catering for my staff and have always been satisfied. This was my first time dealing with the landpark location as it’s closest to my home. Unfortunately, the meal was not up to the expected standard. Specifically, the vegtables were undercooked, the cornbread was hard and dry, the ribs were undercooked and tough, the macaroni was cold and dry, the steak was tough on the outside and undercooked on the inside. The salmon was cold so we did not feel comfortable trying it. The salad and dressing were not chilled and had become wilted, and the entire family feast was cold when it arrived to my home. I placed an order for the family feast meal which arrived by doordash delivery through Buckhorns app. I have already reached out to doordash who is unable to assist me and referred me back to the landpark location, due to this order being placed on the Buckhorn app and not through doordash directly. I then contacted the landpark location. My call was answered by Hector who immediatley placed me on hold for 17 minutes. Once he came back and I explained the situation, he then put his manager Navaro on the line after another extended hold. Navarro was professional in our interaction. I requested a refund, He asked me to bring the food in to the landpark location so he could use it as a teaching moment for his team. I explained that I ordered delivery for my family because I’m home caring for my ill and elderly mother who I cannot leave and is not mobile.
He placed me on another hold to speak with his GM and I assume he went to check with his team and verify the quality of the food. After a while he came back and said they would definitely consider a credit for the cornbread and vegtables. (I’m assuming he saw the extremely low quality for himself) However he said before he would consider a credit I would need to send him pictures of the food. By the time I was able to speak with Navaro after already having reached out to doordash and then being placed on a long hold before getting Navaro on the line, we had already bagged up and thrown out the food in the dumpster so there would be no pictures to send. We paid $135 for the food alone not including the delivery fee and tip, so we are upset to say the least. I spent a total of 40 mins on the phone attempting to resolve the issue with no success. I’ve reached out to corporate and I’m pending a response. I suggest going to the H st or University Ave locations. They have always been excellent and consistent in quality and service.

Follow up: I received a follow up call from Navaro, the manger at the landpark location. He was professional and apologetic for the experience I had. He said he did speak with his team about the quality of food I received. He also said he went ahead and added a credit in the amount of 40 or 45 dollars (I cant remember exactly what amount he said) to my buckhorn app which should show up at the latest 24 hours from now and can be used anytime in the future. I appreciate that he was professional and followed through. I’m just not sure how I feel about this yet. I paid $143.65 total for food my family was looking forward to and ultimately was not able to eat. I spent a good amount of time trying to resolve the issue, I still had to take time away from what I had going on at home that made it inconvenient for me to cook dinner tonight in the first place and I ended up cooking anyway. With today’s climate I guess I should be happy I even got 30% of what I paid as a credit to buy food from this establishment in the future.. When the frustration wears off I hope to be satisfied with the outcome ✌️
