Love this place. Just love it. Best meatballs ever!!! Service: Take out Meal type: Lunch Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Spaghetti and Meatballs, Toasted View all feedback.

What Shannon Hendrickson doesn't like about By The Bucket:
The owner is very outspoken on social media about his hatred of the LGBTQ community. He attempted to organize efforts to protest the local Pride Event and used defamatory and inappropriate language. The food is ok. My family are Italian Americans who own Italian delis and restaurants in Chicago and this is the Subway of Italian food.

"Our server Jordan was amazing. Can't say that for the owner and the manager Debby. My 16-oz primary rib was ground three times. Order medium rare. The plate came everywhere with blood, half was properly cooked and the other half was rare. They took it back and fired it again. It was good. 3. Once it came out, it was a super thin piece and full of fat and Gristle. I had seen Debbie and talked to her about it. She said that all 3 different chefs were what they rarely considered as a medium. She even said the owner voted with the cook on them. I ordered the main nativity for 30 years in mid rare cases, both are wrong. I asked to talk to the owner, but she left the building at this exact moment. You paid me for it anyway. My wife and I chose this place from every place to celebrate our 18th anniversary. I don't want to see how the owners react. I saw her other answers to say the least. Sad that you made it through the pandemic while others had to close. I post a picture of the main nativity I get from the casino tomorrow and show you how to cook it. The owner reacted to Google and was a piece of work. Read her answer. She admitted that the main rib was boiled incorrectly, but turns around and justifies it. I never expected a restaurant owner to have this attitude. Now I know why her manager is the same. Reviews also talk about the rude staff. You have no good role model, so I think you can't expect less. I'm glad Jordon is the exception. With spending $170 on alcohol, dinner and the top you think the owner would not be such a bad attitude. I would advise you not to go here because the quality of food does not justify the price you pay. I'd go to the Casino Buffet for Prime Rib if I were you. There is a McDonald’s right on the road that I would recommend. BTW, the photo of the main nativity is from the casino we went the next day. This is how medium rare prime rib should look. Did not cost me $33, take 3 shots to get it wrong and taste AMAZING!"

"The Wendy's girl has devil horns and she loves to take your money. Buyer beware prices are insane compared to other locations. Foods good tho. Oh and for all you flat landers good luck finding trailer or rv parking because it doesn't exist."
