Buford's Steak House & Bbq

The host up front was a nice guy.
Food was cold, slow, terrible server.

“Took my parents here as they had driven three hours to spend the day with us. We didn't have to wait too long. Once we were seated, we waiting at least fifteen minutes until our drink orders were taken. Our server said he would bring out the bread as soon as it came out of the oven. He also said he would bring plates for our appetizers, never happened. We placed our orders. Half hour later, our waiter comes out and tells us they are out of two our meals. We reorder. Still no bread. An hour and fifteen minutes after ordering our food comes out. Half of the food is cold; still no bread. I ask server if we can get some bread at which point he gets upset and tells me as soon as it comes out of the oven. (We heard these 1 1/2 hours ago). When we are nearly finished with our meals we ask again for bread and receive some cold rolls. We ask for our check and wait nearly another fifteen minutes for it to come. When it does come he charged for an extra meal and for the drinks we had at the bar while waiting, which we paid for there. He then tells us he can't refund the money, but can give us a gift card. We tell him that is unacceptable at which point he storms away. He stomps back to our table a few minutes later and shoves the cash into my dad's hand and stomps away. One of the most classless displays of food service I have ever seen. I was a waiter for four years, so I know it can be a tough job, but this was just horrible. Thank God we didn't get a gift certificate because that would have caused me to possibly go back.”

Authentic flavor and style.
Slightly small dining area.

“If you like authentic Mexican food it's awesome. If you are looking for a taco johns type of Mexican food then forget it. I loved it. The atmosphere is true south of the border. Great service. Very laid back.”

Location.
Everything else!

“Hot food is cold. Cold food is lukewarm. Greasy. Hard to swallow. Been there three times over two years and it's the same every time. I'll never go there again!”

Fast service. Great attention to filling drinks.
Can't stand beer batter onion rings so won't order onion rings here.

“Fast service. Great quantity of food for the price. Comfortable seating. Nice waiting area in the front. Electronic games for kids and adults. Large bar area. Lots of screens with multiple channels on. Been going there for years and will continue.”

Staff and price.
Very little parking.

“We had a blast! The staff was fun and the river setting was to die for. Even being a neighborhood bar they did a great job with my kids and grandparents. You got to try this place. Go early not much parking.”

Buford's Steak House & Bbq

Steaks were delicious.
They're fancy butter left much to be desired.

“True for this small of a town it was a rather nice restraint. Over all the food we had was excellent. The steaks were tender and juicy. They also had all you could eat ribs and they were some of the best I have had outside of Texas, along with several different flavors of bbq sauce. Over all the experience was very pleasant and I would recommend this place to anyone that travels thru fort dodge.”

Mineral City Mill & Grill
Mar 7, 2007 by Al from Sharpton

Overall Rating: 8
Food:[8] • Service:[8] • Atmosphere:[7]

Local ownership + full parking lot = good dining.
Weak on veggies, wine choices are unexciting.

“Nice local place, although it has the feel/decor of a chain. Steaks/Chops were good, and sourced locally. Steamed broccoli was over-steamed, and dull green. Pleasant service, and from what I could tell on a one-day trip to Ft. Dodge, it looks like one of the nicer non-franchise places in town. ”
