What People Are Saying About Buckhorn Steak & Roadhouse
Featured Review

The Scene – One couldn't begin to talk about the Buckhorn without mentioning the animal heads. They form a glassy-eyed ring around the tables. But the Buckhorn isn't just a giant trophy case. Located at the foot of the de Vilbiss Hotel in historic downtown Winters, it's homey, loud and considered a meat lover's paradise. – – The Food – When a renowned steakhouse like the Buckhorn, which serves only Certified Angus Beef, is first encountered, there's a tendency to stampede straight for the prime rib. If you can rein yourself in, we recommend starting with the…
Editor's Tips
- Old Timer Tavern:
- Buckhorn's full-bar saloon is done up in turn-of-the-century fashion with old photos, memorabilia and a player piano.
- From Elegant to Casual:
- Buckhorn Catering offers food, full bar and service for special events.
- Want More Beef?:
- Try Morton's of Chicago in Sacramento.
- Is that a Crumb?:
- Artist Robert Crumb used to hang out across the street from the Buckhorn at the Putah Creek Caf?. His sketch of the de Vilbiss is proudly displayed by the Buckhorn's owners.
BEST STEAKHOUSE IN THE SACRAMENTO REGION
by dj_mc_entertainment at Citysearch
not only is the Buckhorn an outstanding restaurant.........they are also the best caterers in the Yolo county area.........their "Tri-Tip" is to die for!
- Pros: Great steaks, great off-site catering
- Cons: their location in Winters is so far away........
If you find a better steakhouse tell me.

This is seriously the best steakhouse I have ever been to, they have better steaks than you could get in San Francisco or NYC and is definitely worth the trip from anywhere. The ambience is great, the service is the best that I have had eating anywhere (college student and we usually get crap) and i definitely awarded them for it. Bottom line, not only is this the best steakhouse around it is also the best deal around.
- Pros: Amazing Steaks, Great Service, Good Prices
- Cons: Not closer to me, Not closer to me, Not closer to me

The best Steakhouse BAR NONE! I have tried just about everything on the menu, and I haven't been dissapointed yet, although I highly recommend their Tri Tip dinner. The portions are huge and savory. Also one to try is their award winning mushroom soup. The soup is very rich, made with real cream and mushrooms. This can be a great meal by itself or as an accompanyment to their entres. Note that this soup is usually served on Saturdays, so plan accordingly.
I can't say enough about thier staff. I held my wedding rehearsal dinner here on a Thursday and even though the Mushroom soup is reserved for Saturdays, they went ahead with my special request and served our guests this delicious treat. Everyone raved!
Great place for families as well as couples, and business appointements. Kudos Buckhorn!!
- Pros: Portions, ambiance, staff
- Cons: crowded weekends
The best steak....ever!

I absolutely LOVE the Buckhorn. The Taylor Cut steak is a must...it's a steak wrapped in apple wood smoked bacon...so good I wish I was eating there now. The garlic mashed potatoes are also a must as well as the green beans.
The drinks in the bar are also great as well as the service.
Also, if you are ever in Davis on Wednesday nights, you must go to the farmers market to get a Big Buck sandwich with grilled onions at the Buckhorn stand. I honestly can't say enough about the Buckhorn. It's fantastic!
Simply the best

The Buckhorn is relly the best steakhouse I have ever been to and I travel a lot. The Cajun Rib-eye is a must have along with the Baseball Sirloin. Make sure you go on a Saturday night for the cream of Mushroom soup, too. And ask for Celeste as your waitress... she has great energy and gives the best service!
- Pros: the bar, the decor, THE FOOD
