I am really impressed with the Toast Tab ordering system at Bar on Buena. When you are seated, you simply scan a QR code to create a tab for placing orders. You can submit multiple orders on the same tab, and anyone at the table can join in. At the end, you can all pay together or choose the items you want to pay for. The server is attentive to the tables even with the convenience of the Toast Tab. If you like dark bock lagers, I recommend trying the Lifesblood by Old Irving Brewing. It pairs perfectly with a cold day and some French fries!

This charming neighborhood bar is perfect for a relaxed dinner. It can get quite busy, so I suggest arriving early if you want a table outside (inside is easier to find seating). The ambiance is fantastic and I would definitely return. The food was tasty and while I didn't love my drink, it was well-crafted and my friend enjoyed hers. A fun spot!

Stopped here for appetizers and dinner here with friends. Great little spot with great food and good portions. Had a beer flight which was larger than most too!

Great bar with amazing outside patio area. Really good beer and alcohol selection. Food selection was also good but food lacked a little in taste. Didn't taste bad, just pretty bland. Would definitely go back for drinks

They’re more scared of germs than they are of losing business.
