    Decided on the Burning Buffalo for a friend meetup due to the good amount of GF options. Food and service was amazing. They had an extensive drink menu and the Paloma was spot on. We ended up ordering steak sandwiches, chicken fingers and tacos. Everyone left full and happy!

    Service was slow (we sat for quite a long time before even getting water). Food was barely warm when it arrived. Fries were overly salty and clearly had sat in a warming tray for a long time as they were dried out. Would not return.
