Yelp.com Review - by Well-Traveled I.

3.0 of 5 stars. Food was tasty but the ambience (with the trays and hokey western memorabilia) reminded me of Ponderosa back East; I've lived in the "real" West and too much cheesy decor takes away from the good...

3.0 of 5 stars. I give Buster's a big A for how well they cook they're meats......very tender even without the sauce(btw i've tasted better sauces). The setup is a little high schoolish and the service sucked....

Four years later, I STILL love it!

I had a chance to try Buster's Tigard location when visiting the Portland-area with my son back in 2004. We both just loved the food and couldn't wait to come back. It took until August 2008 for me to be able...

Buster's Tigard location is poor at best, Milwaukie is Okay, Tigard-Dry meat, bad service/attitude Milwaukie OK

Buster's is (sort of) Texas style barbeque and in Texas it would rate at the lower end of mediocre but there the competition is fierce and here in Portland not so fierce. Campbells's, My Brothers's, and others...

The plain chicken is good just not the sauce.

The sauce is not very good here but the bbq'd chicken without any sauce is actually really good. The sides are good as well.

How anyone can vote Buster's #1, is WAY beyond reason

Okay food, but what is up with their "cafeteria"

The food was okay, but I didn't like the fact that I had to get in line like I used to in high school. The barbeque was somewhat dry.

The Best Southwest Barbeque in the Northwest

This is Southwest Barbeque, not that Tennessee stuff slathered in sauce. It is surprisingly good and compares with the average Texan fare. Anyway, cheaper than a ticket to Llano, Tx.

Busters is the Balls

If you're looking for something awesome, get the two-meat dinner with brisket and baby backs. Then mix a little sweet sauce with a little hot sauce together, and you will be eating the best barbecue in Oregon...

I am not a big fan of meat--barbequed or not, but Buster's is different. Maybe it is the sauce, but I love the food.
