    Excellent food and service. I highly recommend the tuna bomb. I sat outside it was a lovely table very quiet and my server was amazing. Highly recommend visiting if you’re in the Palm Beach area.

    Absolutely terrific. Sophisticated yet fun atmosphere. Delicious food. Polite server (and valet). The most fun is ordering three or four different items and splitting everything to share experience. We would gladly return and recommend to others.

    This was my 2nd time here. I brought my cousin who was visiting from out of town. We had a great time and the food was 10/10 as well as the service and my mocktail! I'm a private chef so I can be very critical of food and service and again this was one of the best meals I've ever had in my life. Top 3 ever. I will be back!

    First time at Buccan. Mostly everything was very good. Our server was a bit distracted but pleasant. I think he tried to steer me away from the white truffle Parmesan Alfredo. It was expensive and not very exciting; other than that, delicious, nice setting, energetic crowd so will try again.

    Have dined at Buccan many times and have always enjoyed the food, service and ambiance. The last experience on 11/7 was the complete opposite for my wife and me and another couple. The food was way below par…a pasta dish we shared was almost inedible. A burger I ordered medium/well came out raw. The replacement took over half an hour with no apology from the server or Manager. Fries were oversalted even though I asked for light salt. Not sure we’ll return.

    We go to Buccan 2 or 3 times a year. The food and the wine are always excellent. One of our favorite are the Tuna Crisp. I don’t know if the recipe has been change but it was not has good then before. I think there was to much wasabi. Thank you, Gerard

    Amazing experience! we got very early (1.5 hrs before reservation) and we got to sit at the chairs near the bar and were offered drinks right away. 20' later a table was assigned and the 2 men that served us were extremely nice and helpful with their suggestions and service. The food was amazing. Loved the environment!!!

    We've been coming to Buccan for years. The food and service never disappoints. We look forward to tasting new menu items, but do enjoy their seasoned selections. Last night we had the Beet Tabbouleh. The dish was extraordinary. We always enjoy the Short Rib Empanadas and the Squid Ink Orecchiette. We love the burger too. Don't change a thing!
