Buddies Grill - Hammond

First and foremost, the online menu does not reflect the prices you find when you are seated. I ended up paying $44 more for two steaks. Additionally, the service was terrible; the waitress spilled food on my brother, and we had to ask for bread. To make matters worse, our drinks were delivered incorrectly not just once, but twice. I had ordered a medium-well steak, but what I received was rare, so I sent it back. When it returned, it was overcooked. This experience was very unprofessional. I would recommend going to Stabs in Baton Rouge instead.

The steaks here are excellent. My ribeye was among the best I’ve ever tasted—tender, well-seasoned, and nicely trimmed with fat. The only issue I faced was that the restaurant didn’t have my reservation from OpenTable. I showed the confirmation email and text message on my phone to the receptionist, who mentioned they often have issues with OpenTable reservations. Fortunately, it wasn't a major inconvenience for us; we only had to wait about 5 to 10 minutes. However, it does seem like this is something they should look into and resolve.

Our server Jade was awesome !! Our first time here from Slidell it’s worth the drive ! We will be back !! Filet was the best !! Bread pudding Kickers are best dessert !! Ask for Jade !

Food and service was fantastic. Jade, our host was also fantastic

I’ve been on the hunt for a great steakhouse in the area for years, and after seeing this one ranked as the best in Hammond, I decided to give it a try. It definitely lived up to its reputation! Jade, our server, was attentive without being overbearing, and the food was cooked to perfection. This is a high-end dining experience in a town dominated by chain restaurants that may have similar prices but fall short in quality.
