Bucco Restaurant Bloomfield

We celebrated our manager birthday! We had a blast! Jennifer is the best! Food was amazing! Place was intimate! Beyond 5 stars!

I had a client lunch planned and client mentioned wanting Italian. I did a quick google search in Essex County since I am an Essex county girl and when I selected this place I have not stopped coming since that first visit. What a truly amazing find with just the right ambience and cozy feel. Not only is the FOOD insanely good but Jenn and her staff treat you like FAMILY! We have now had family dinners, my daughter's baptism lunch and many more memorable moments at BUCCO. We honestly look for any reason to come back to BUCCO. Highly, highly recommend

Really good food, great staff

Love it

Excellent Italian. Service and atmosphere top notch. BYOB is an added benefit.

Live band was great! Had a great time dancing. Food, service, vibe, everything about this dinner was excellent!

The food here was fantastic and the Atmosphere was peaceful. The service was amazing. I felt well taken care of

One of the best Italian restaurants that I ever went to, The fried calamari and the salmon where is superb

How did I miss this place when it opened 6 years ago? It’s located on a small street off Bloomfield with other small independent restaurants and across from a parking garage. However it’s the kind of place you may find in Montclair or NYC so I appreciate their investing in Bloomfield. In any case, I was so glad we found this place, as I was really wanting pasta. There are SO many places in this part of NJ that it’s hard to choose; however, Bucco won me over due to their lunch menu and the reasonable prices. What amazed me was the portion size, which can’t be much different than a dinner. So generous and more than enough to take home for dinner. I had the spaghetti with pomodoro sauce, which was beautifully fresh and light. My partner had the pasta vodka and the pasta was al dente with a lovely creamy sauce. Both of us added side order of meatballs and wow, so tasty. I guess one could say a meatball is a meatball, but these were quite flavorful and not dry at all. Before the main dishes we had fried calamari, which was lightly crispy without it being rubbery…not easy to do! I had the Caesar salad as well, and the homemade dressing had just enough weight without being overly creamy. Warm bread was offered as well as beverages. This is a BYOB, which we didn’t realize so we’ll make sure to do that next time. Along with our takeaway, we added tiramisu which we will enjoy later. Add to the beautiful meal was the fantastic service from beginning to end (thank you!)

We recently moved a family member to Bloomfield and made the excellent choice to eat at Bucco last Thursday evening. I must say everything from the food to the service to the atmosphere was great. Bucco has a great combination of 5 star food, first class service and a warm, welcoming environment. All 3 of our entree's were outstanding as was the Burrata appetizer. We will definitely be back.

We had such a good time. The staff was friendly. The food was quick. BYOB! Had the buratta ravioli, and rigatoni in bolognese and pork chop Milanese. Also had the mussels and burrata appetizer. It was a fun night out with great people!

Great food. Their seafood dishes are excellent.

It is with immense pleasure that I give this review for my favorite local restaurant in Bloomfield: Bucco at 61 Washington Street. Before I begin, I would like to introduce my wife Jeanne and I; we were food critics for some of the best restaurants. But we have come out of retirement to give this review.
Bucco experience starts with attentive and inviting, relaxed atmosphere; your taste buds are treated to delicious and innovative home cooked meals at very reasonable prices and a BYOB.
Please try their “After The Train Special” from 4pm to 6 PM, a generous 25% off Pastas & Entrees Specials for the best takeout option in Bloomfied.
Tell them that Tommy B sent you and Enjoy, Enjoy and Enjoy!

Bucco is a small and intimate Italian restaurant for a meal with a friend or family. Jennifer provided the type of service you would find at a 5 star NYC restaurant. He recommendations were on point and the food was phenomenal. It is a hidden gem of Bloomfield. You must go and enjoy a wonderful meal that will warm the heart.
