You know what I like about Buster's? It's that it's actually on a (faux) lake! Yes, the lake isn't real, but it's big and houses live on it and if you close your eyes and try really hard, you might forget we are in the desert without a whole lot of natural water sources.
When I visited Buster's it was sadly in the 100's so we couldn't sit out on the patio, but next time I will definitely make sure I do. Instead, we sat in the bar area and enjoyed Cajun Chicken Cesar Salads. The salad itself was hearty and tasty. I added avocado for a little extra. The setting was decent and very old school Scottsdale. Translation: everything is a little older, but clean and there's nothing trendy about this restaurant. I also really enjoyed the delicious bread they bring out to your table. I can't pinpoint the flavor but it reminded me of a bread I'd have as a kid. It's a little sweet, a little sugary and a lot of deliciousness. I also noticed that they have pop corn shrimp on the menu which I will definitely be ordering next time.
Buster's is worth a visit but you have to come in expecting an old school restaurant on a faux lake. It's all A-OK. There is plenty of room for large parties. The menu can be pricey, but if you order at the bar, it's definitely more reasonable.
