This place has wonderful atmosphere and delicious food. The tuna steak sandwich and nachos are my favourites. Definitely request the nachos without queso if you just want shredded cheese.
Love the food here. They are pretty accommodating to allergies or different diets like vegan and gluten free friendly. I had Mediterranean pasta which was delicious. Always enjoy exploring their drink menu and speciality coffee menu as well!
Great food and atmosphere!!! One of my favorite dishes there is the blackened salmon. It's delicious. Also, their sweet potato fries are really good. My favorite thing about Busboys is how inclusive they are. The culture there is very open and thoughtful. I feel at home and I feel proud that they are so welcoming and liberal. Their menu also reflects their consideration of others because they have a lot of options for different diets and sensitivities. At any location, you will not be disappointed.
Definitely a favorite. I guess I'm biased, because Langston Hughes is one of my favorite poets (he's the inspiration for the restaurant's moniker). However, The great thing about Busboys is that there's literally something for everyone. If you've got a sworn carnivore uncle, and a gluten free vegan cousin, everyone gets delicious food here without hurt feelings, and the heavy sigh side-eyes. The service is always on point, and you'll feel smart and cultured because you're eating in a bookstore.
I was so excited to finally try this restaurant. Nothing earth shatteringly terrible happened but my excitement was unwarranted. In other words there will always be better options. We walked in and the hostess greeted us and “put our name on a list” Ten minutes later she came over to ask if we were on the list she should have put us on already.
Fast forward to dinner, I had the lamb sliders. Only one slider had the advertised goat cheese on it. I got a total of 8 chips and a charcoal burned random French fry. All this was presented cold. We also asked for a dessert menu 3 times and still haven’t received it. Shout out to yogi castle for picking up where busboys and poets dropped the ball.
There are so many options, don’t waste your time.
