Budds Broiler - Richland (WA)

4 /5 DeWayne DeLatte: Great service and the food was good. Got the oysters on half shell, they were delicious and very clean tasting, but kind of small. The steak tip appetizer was a little overcooked and a little bland. The fillet was very good and the ribeye was very good as well. However, the best part of the meal was the crab. Quite pricey, so it’s not somewhere we would go every week, however, we will likely go back.

5 /5 G Kawa: We had the Tomahawk Steak that was cooked Medium Rare served with Mashed Garlic Potato. Staff took care to make sure that it was exactly how we wanted it cooked before they served it. The Garlic Shrimp came with 5 Big Shrimp served with Green Beans and Rice Pilaf. Shrimp was perfectly cooked and very tasty. Service is excellent with someone coming around to make sure that you didnt need anything else. Service is above and beyond what you would expect.

5 /5 Laura Eames: UPDATE FROM MY PREVIOUS REVIEW: I was contacted by the manager after reading of my first experience. Her name is Cara, she offered to send me a gift card that would cover a meal for 2 and invited me to give them another try. We went back on NYE and our experience was sooo much better. Our waitress/server was Sharita, she was so fun, made great recommendations and communicated with us when the bar was running a little behind. I am impressed with this business and how serious they take their customers experiences. We will add Bud’s to our list of places to eat! This was our first time eating here. The prices were steep and the steak was small, tough, and tasteless. Our server was new and he tried but we had to ask for our bread and he was a bit slow. We split the prime rib New York steak. We thought it was prime rib but turned out to be the worst New York steak ever. The steamed veggies were soggy and tasted old. Our potato’s were gummy like they had been over cooked. The cocktails were good but the pour was light which at 15$ per cocktail seemed ridiculous. Our desert was yummy so 5 stars on that. We sat in the lounge and it was so loud that I had to almost yell for my husband to hear me. We paid way too much (over $200 for 2 people) and honestly Texas Roadhouse would have been a better choice. So disappointing.

4 /5 JW E: The service was great. I had the chicken fried steak and calamari. I loved the calamari. It tasted fresh. The chicken fried steak was okay. It could have had a little more flavor and definitely needed more gravy.

5 /5 Queen Nikki: This is my favorite place for steak in Tri-cities, we are very limited to good restaurants here. Budd’s is great, they have great service, consistent menus, and delicious food. My favorite steak is the filet or the ribeye and the best dessert is the melting lava cake, that’s what I call it, not sure what the exact name of it on the menu is…nor do I care…all I know is that it’s delicious. It does take 15 minutes to make so keep that in mind. I often order it to go if I’m not dining in and only want dessert, it’s so good! The one thing I was sad about was they got rid of the Brut champagne (my fav) and replaced it with another option that isn’t as dry, it’s good but not the brut. Love this place, highly recommend!!!!
