The idea of the Buckhorn Grill was born out of the success of the product at the Chef's Market in Napa, California. Thousands of Tri-Tip sandwiches were sold at the market on Friday nights. The first Buckhorn Grill opened in the Metreon located in San Francisco, California in 1999. Each Buckhorn Grill is uniquely designed and provides a friendly, family atmosphere with Really Good Food, Real Fast. $25 gift card
