Always remember, every review is only ONE person's opinion of a SINGLE visit, so keep that in mind. In this case, I was torn about doing a review at all, since I am not certain Buddy's should be classified in the Restaurant listings, at all....They are a bar. They do have a limited menu available on Wednesday/Thursday and Friday evenings ONLY. We went hoping to try their tamales, which luckily they DO offer on Saturday evenings (which is when we visited) We were there early (6 PM), and were the only people in the bar (other than the bartender). He was in the process of prepping the tamales, so we decided to wait for those. We ordered up a couple Corona lights and enjoyed visiting with one local who came in for a couple glasses of wine on his way home from work (he was obviously a very regular customer). The beer was cold. When the tamales were delivered, they are served 'plain' with a side of saltines. No chili option as we've seen on the tamale trail farther north in Mississippi. The tamales are good. Nice level of heat, but not "burn your lips" hot. I just don't think most folks would consider Buddy's to be a Restaurant, or even to consider it 'pub grub'. Not a bad experience, at all, just hard to 'rate' in this class of trade. All that being said, the check for two beers and a dozen tamales and tip came to only $25, so reasonable for what was offered.More
