Best WLM Reviews

It's edible. That's about the only remarkable thing to it. I ordered a Caesar salad with steak med rare and liver & onions. The steak was cooked to well done and I don't think it was touched by salt or pepper at any point during cooking. It almost looked like it was boiled at some point.
The liver was cooked to the point it was nearly inedible, and the "salad" it came with was either forgotten or somehow turned into a pile of fried potatoes.
I highly doubt I'll go be going back with Henry's or Dusty's both within shooting distance.
**Edit**
They contacted me about my review, and asked to comp me for it. They agreed to refund my card, but it's been ~3 weeks now and they didn't follow through with their promise to refund me. I'd bump them up to a 3 if they'd stayed true to their word.
**Edit Two**
Never received the promised refund, will likely not be returning. Lying to try and keep business isn't a good strategy in the long term.
rarely can you find food cooked to absolute perfection, but that's what is served here. One of the best hamburgers I've ever had anywhere, cooked exactly as I requested - just the right size to manage. They have a cheerful, attentive staff, ample parking at a strip mall, and it's not too loud or distracting (at least, not in the afternoon, when I was there). The theme is sports bar, but that's not done overwhelmingly. Highly recommended for a place with a basic menu cooked just right.
Buddies Pub & Grill is a popular local pub in town. Love atmosphere. Wide open space inside and very clean. Can enjoy the good food and drinks with your coworkers, friends, or family. You should try their famous nachos, but I warned you it is quite huge volume. The pub staff is very friendly and professional manner. There is "Buddies Pizza" restaurant is near by, so make sure get right place when you call make a reservation or meet with someone there.
The nachos supreme are always on point. And a half order is huge! It does irritate me a little bit that they charge for sour cream and jalapenos, especially as much as they do, but nonetheless it's very good. Also, the lobster rangoons are usually phenomenal. Avoid the wet burrito.
The food is always fabulous. The service was superb. I will waitress. I cannot remember her name but she had two cute pink ribbons in her hair. She was very, very polite and very attentive. It is very obvious that she has a work ethic. There should be more like her serving the customers. The only reason I gave this location the three for the atmosphere is because they were children running around in the place. Sometimes you just want to go enjoy a nice meal without it. Resembling a playground. But we will continue to come there because the customer service was fabulous
The atmosphere was amazing. We were seated right away. Our food came out fast. Our waitress was friendly. The only issue was the Nacho supreme wasn't that great. Cheese was a bit burned and the meat was pretty dry. Everything else we ordered was great!
Stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. The restaurant was about a third full, and we were seated immediately. The waiter was at our table, taking our drink order as soon as we settled in. The menu is just the right size with plenty of options. When I selected the macaroni and cheese, the waiter commented that I had made an excellent choice. The meals were at our table before I was able to finish my salad. Everyone's meal looked and smelled delicious. We were all extremely pleased with our food. My macaroni and cheese was the hit of the table with everyone trying some. We all had an amazing visit and will be returning soon.
This place has excellent food.
The menu has a variety of unique and common food and appetizers. I love coming here and the prices are fair.
Sometimes I get the appetizers as a meal.
