Buckhorn Bar & Grill

Sometimes the best things come from the most unexpected places.  Like the Stones rocking a dive bar, chef Tom Farrell dishes up "off the hook" food like rack of lamb for ten bucks at the Buckhorn in Dixon.  If you can handle eating fine dining quality food on a barstool, this is a place to enjoy some awesome eats at reasonable prices.  On most Fridays you can get a bowl of clam chowder that rivals anything you can get on the East Coast.  Everything is cooked to order with the care of a top chef in a 5 star restaurant.  You won't find a tablecloth or even a table, but what you will find is great food at reasonable prices and a colorful local crowd.  The menu is always changing but never disappointing.  Check it out.

This is by far the best steak and prime rib you will probably ever find (other than mine lol) the right aging and marbling of the meat makes it so tender. The rib eye is my favorite if I had to choose . But luckily if you and your better half do it right by ordering 2 different choices and sharing them  you don't have to choose!

buckhorn is probably dixon's best BAR...i didnt realize people actually use it as a grill...lol...but maybe for lunch ya. i usualy dont get in there till after 8pm, when it is not serving food...but lots of booze!

owned by a family freind of mine...Rich...very cool guy.

its a block from my parents house, so thats a PLUS. but even better is their new buckwild SHUTTLE!! if you live in dixon, enjoy a ride home safely on fri/sat nights =) just ask....

the atmosphere varies greatly night to night, during the week they have more low key, less population, things like kareoke night, weds and thurs i beleive, and card night (tues?), usually on the weekends is obviously the busiest, but occasionally on a friday night it is still ok. im not a big fan of the huge dancing crowd...myself...but if you like the club scene with live music/DJ tahn fri/sat nights are for you ;)

its gets very busy, so busy sometimes i can barely walk through the place...to get to the smokers patio. lol. i like that they have 2 patios (only one you can take your drinks out with you however) and the shuttle. key points to the buckhorn.

bartenders make good drinks, try and AMF or a sunkist shot.....very good here.
