    Great food and an excellent evening. The waitress had great advice for my wife on which steak and she did not steer wrong. Environment was perfect for the birthday celebration that it was for my wife and our daughter. Would highly recommend and we will be back.

    Thank you for a great experience - I have never been to a restaurant that was more attentive and responsive to out needs. The lobster, steak, and pork chops were delicious! The vegetable medley was superb! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

    Service was excellent but the room was a bit noisy, the steak was fine but presentation was unappealing, the stroganoff was under seasoned, with an unattractive presentation and the meat was tough. Decor was meh. I do like Buckley’s restaurants but this is not up to the standards I remember.

    Valentines day, seated right away. Drinks and food were excellent. They were finally playing classical music which made it a nicer ambiance.

    Buckley's is well known in our region as one of the better places to dine, especially if one seeks a good steak. We were not disappointed. I got the sugar cured strip loin and my dining partner ordered the filet mignon. Both cooked precisely as we preferred (medium well). The preliminaries (bread with olive oil, a salad for my dining partner) were tasty without being too filling. The core meal was delicious. The server (Laura) was attentive and friendly. She muffed my beer order but I am not very picky -- she ended up crediting us anyway. Two of the five dessert offerings were sold out; we settled for the blueberry crisp, and it was excellent.
