I'll definitely be back. It was a bit chaotic. It may have been their first night under the new name. The margaritas were good, the price was fair. The food was solid. I'd like to try more. The chips were great. The guac was great (read fresh). The service was spotty. We sat for a while before a drink order was taken. no water offered, no apology. Overall staff was super friendly, just a bit disorganized. I'll definitely be back and you should give it a try, too.
And oh yeah, tell 'em Big Texas sent you!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Komal S.Philadelphia, PA103290518Jul 19, 2016
I haven't been able to find a single good Mexican place around here, and Buhos has decent reviews so I figured I would give it a shot (worst idea ever)
We were seated almost immediately because they were empty on a Friday night. That should have set of an alarm off to not eat there, but hey, I guess I like living on the edge.
We started with nachos, which were actually pretty decent.
Since we ordered nachos, they "forgot" to give us free chips and salsa. Interesting. Regardless, they had good salsa too.
The food...oh the food.. It was awful. The fajitas had no flavor, nothing special at all. The enchiladas tasted like canned sauce...gross. And the chimichanga was okay because it was loaded with cheese and anything with cheese is good.
The service was terrible, to the point where we had to get up and look for a waiter to give us a bill.
And then the best part, an automatic 20% tip for crappy service, for a table of 3. I've never seen such a thing! Awful service NEVER deserves 20% tip, and I've never seen anyone ever add 20% for a party of 3.
Seriously though, go to Taco Bell or something, this place was not worth it at all, unless you want free chips and salsa that they might "forget" to give you anyway.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - Jun 26, 2016
Stopped in after a Pheonixville beer fest and was presently surprised! Big place with lots of room, nice decorations, and huge bar. The menu had a nice selection of choices. I settled on the steak nachos and chorizo quesadilla. They were both great but the nachoes won me over in the end! All the elements in the nachos really built up to a great dish. Service was great too!

Everyone working was super nice, however, that doesn't mean we had good service. It wasn't a particularly busy time when we went (only 3 or 4 other tables in our room, and a couple outside), but it took them 25 minutes from after we ordered appetizers to bring our drink order, and we were sitting next to the bar. I think they only remembered because I loudly mentioned that we hadn't gotten drinks yet. Then, they bring the drinks over (2 beers, 2 cocktails), 10 minutes later (35 minutes into the night) they bring our appetizers over. As we are eating the appetizers, they take the entree order. At that point, we had eaten half the appetizers and only got 2 entrees for 4 of us to split. 35 minutes later, they bring the entrees out, and then they ask if we want another drink, only the 2nd time we were checked on by the wait staff in over an hour.
The food was okay. Okay like your aunts potato salad that she may or may not have gotten from ACME on the way and just threw in a bowl. I got the fusion burger, which had the most upsetting piece of chorizo. It tasted and felt like kielbasa, and was bland and simultaneously overpowering to the rest of the burger. The nacho's were acceptable. Guacamole and Pico were great, thought!
Overall, I'd pass. Wasn't worth the $, certainly wasn't worth the time. Nice people and I hope my experience was singular, but looking at these reviews, I don't think that's the case. Hope you pull it together guys!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Craig D.Rockville, MD31246571Jun 17, 2016

Love this place ! Considering that today is national guacamole day we had to venture out to Buhos ! The shrimp tacos are my favorite thing on the menu! Very delicious flavor and a lot of little shrimp. The gauc is also a must at Buhos. Their food is so fresh. We love coming to Pheonixville to come to Buhos. They are very pet friendly and the staff is very attentive and friendly. The margaritas are made with fresh lime juice and they have an assortment of tequilas to choose from. The only downfall is that you have to sit at the bar the get happy hour specials but that is at almost any other restaurant. We drive from exton to go to this location to take in the atmosphere and the beautiful garden outside !

How often do you yearn for your fix of Bolivian food? Maybe the answer is never but I'll bet that is only because you have never traveled around the beautiful and fascinating country of Bolivia. If you've been to Bolivia, you'll be happy to know that in Phoenixville is a restaurant owned by Bolivian-Americans called Buho which serves up a couple of that country's tasty specialties along with other Latin-American dishes. Buho is an excellent culinary destination. First of all, it is extremely attractive both outside and inside. The friendly staff is more than eager to make sure you get good service. They have their own parking lot right on Bridge Street. And then there is the food. I def had to go with the well-known Bolivian meal of Pique Macho. I wasn't disappointed at all. Their Cochabamba rendition of this steak extravaganza pleases the eye and palate - especially with the addition of the ubiquitous Bolivian Llajwa sauce. The meal began with a nice serving of nachos and salsa. Next time I eat here, I'll def try out another Bolivian dish called Silpancho.
Buho means "owl" in Spanish. So be wise like an owl, and check out this great Latin fusion restaurant and bar!Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 6Oh no 0 - MeLisa B.East Petersburg, PA841011Jan 14, 2016
This is my second time at Buhos. All of the food we have gotten has been freshly made. Nothing is frozen here besides some Margaritas! Their margaritas are fantastic, and their pico de gallo is probably the best I've ever had. That's really saying something since I come from a Hispanic family. The plates are huge! You must try the carnitas. It melts in your mouth! I always get fajitas. Can't complain. They do use corn wraps instead of flour, but I don't mind that. As an appetizer, you NEED to get the beef empanadas. The dough and the meat is fresh! Now I need someone to send me some coupons because it is a little pricey!
