Reviews for Buford's Steak House & BBQ Ames in Ames, IA
The service was excellent, but the brisket is questionable. Eat here if you have no other option. Be nice to the servers, it's... not their fault the food is gross. Thank you friendly server! Oh, and as a Redeemer, exile is on draft. Read more
No way a human or animal should have to eat here. It was the worst food I have ever had. Our server looked desperate while... trying to make things better. We took the uneaten mess in a to go box so she wouldn't cry. We threw the boxes in the Hotel'sgarbage so we didn't endanger any wildlife at home. My pulled pork was freezer burnt and soaked in liquid smoke to cover it. My husband's brisket looked like grey mystery meat and was also soaked in liquid smoke. Even the sides were horrid. How canyou possibly screw up fries. Read more
We were hungry and excited to eat here after hearing that the food was good. Everything was great till our food came. My prime... rib was a thin piece of dried out roast beef. My wife's meal was terrible as well. As we sucked it up and my wife not wanting meto make a scene we ate what we could. I felt like I was having Christmas eve dinner with the Griswalds but with prime rib. Round1 went to Buford's. I thought that awful meal was past us, I was wrong. My wife and I found ourselves crawling to the bathroompuking anywhere we could. Buford's got us in round 2. We tapped out as we slept outside our hotel bathroom door with nothing butregret. A night never to forget. Read more
Came a few years ago. Friends all got sick and food was bad.
My food came out long after everyone else in my group was served. My potato was cold. No one corrected it.
