Deep Dive

A deep dive into Bun's Restaurant

A classic staple for downtown Delo. They Got New owners last year. They're great 👍 super nice. And always there, often seen in the kitchen when short staffed which is rare nowadays, you can tell they really care about making it a great experience. New head chef in the kitchen who came out and talked for a moment he's as fantastic as his food you can sense his passion for cooking. Cool to see. Lots of indoor seating with a cool old school feel. A small indoor bar area, + a nice big outdoor(-ish) bar, and a Great patio! Even including some green space. Garage doors on 3/4 sides of the big bar area which get lifted in the summer to make it one with the patio. They started doing live music this summer which is awesome 🤘🏼. I've been twice now on music nights and both were very good. One was Magnetic+Madi. Madi has a great voice. The other was a really good one man Band called F&L. All in all its good to see this spot making a comeback! If they showed the UFC fights Saturday night is give 6 stars.

I have over 19 million google contributor views, mostly restaurant reviews. Unfortunately this is a one of two negative reviews I’ve given . I’m a native of Delaware Ohio. I remember when the Hoffman‘s own buns when it was a prestigious restaurant to eat at. Sadly, I had a very bad experience at Buns’s restaurant today. First of all the table was sticky on the top… wow I have no idea how to remedy that except replace the tables. First of all the waitress listed five different things on the menu that they did not have. One of the items was the stuffed flounder ….thats what I was going to order. Ended up ordering a fish sandwich. Ordered at 12:30 PM at 1:15 PM … 45 minutes later a family inquired about our food. The waitress we asked, said she didn’t see any orders in the back. Finally the guys that was seating, people tried to explain what was happening…… “they had run out of the normal fish and had to use a substitute that was much thicker, therefore causing a long cook time.” Long story short at 1:40 … we had been there an hour and 20 minutes we were finally served our fish sandwich. It did not come with the jalapeño poppers or the baked potato I ordered with the sandwich. I looked at deep-fried fish, and it looked overcooked almost black. My wife had ordered the same thing and we both returned our meals. Five minutes later, we decided to leave still had not seen the jalapeño poppers or the baked potato. No one asked if I could be compensated, in any way. Other members in the family had part of their orders still missing… it’s now 1:50 and I’m leaving. I was there earlier in the summer, and it seemed as though they were understaffed. The food was mediocre. Sorry, buns restaurant you might want to take care of keeping items on the menu stocked and keeping the tables clean.

I must admit that I was a little disappointed... I normally have very up beat reviews so I am not being a hater. Buns is an iconic restaurant in Delaware and we had not been there in quite a few years. We got right in and were seated promptly which was very cool. Literally 10 minutes later the waitress coms and gets our drink order. We figure out what to eat fairly quickly and order. We get a loaf of bread which is delicious and the garlic and herb butter is outstanding. Then they bring out wifie's salad and my cole slaw which were both very good. I really liked the cole slaw... Then we ask for some more bread... Get the drinks refilled... Get drinks refilled again... They bring us more bread... I look at my watch and we have been there 50 minutes and no main course. Another drink refill and the food arrives. I ordered the prime rib medium rare with smashed potatoes. The prime rib was medium and the potatoes were hard (you how madhed potatoes get when they sit under a heat lamp) I ate it because we had already been there over an hour. The prime rib was good but the potatoes were not. Wifie had the stuffed flounder and that was really good. She loved it. By the time We finally got out of there; we had been there an hour an a half. The service and the waitress average. It will be a few years before I visit Buns again... Not impressed at all but the stuffed flounder was really good.
