Such a fantastic hideaway on 95th Street, a block from the subway with wonderful food, great wine and cocktails, lovely wait staff and a brilliant atmosphere! I love it so much I almost don't want to tell you all!

I visit New York a couple times a year and I always dine at Buceo 95. The food is delicious and the entire team is first rate, — attentive without hovering. They have an extensive wine list and a wide variety of tapas dishes to choose from, both classic dishes and their own creations.

All the dishes we shared were interesting and delicious. Great shrimp ajillo. Nathan the manager was super accommodating in taking care of our group.
Noel
Great spot for wide selection of light bites and wine before a performance across the street at Symphony Space. Waiters are pleasant and very aware of timing.
Morgan
Favorite place ever! We are regulars😃 every dish is perfection. Just one plea to add a chocolate item to dessert options :-)
Lin
Intimate, cozy and popular with the locals. We loved the menu, enjoyed grilled artichokes, goat cheese fritters, some of the best fried calmari anywhere, codfish fritters, fresh oysters....attentive servers, well priced for the quality. Recommend, reservations a must for dinner. Fine for kids. High top tables might be a challenge for those with disabilities.

Buceo 95 has become one of our favorite spots. The vibe is great, the staff are friendly and on-point, the food is great. I'll be be back!

All the tapas were really delicious but the flan and churros were not impressive.

We had a terrific meal before catching an event at the nearby Symphony Space. All our dishes were delicious, and the service was very efficient, considering that we didn't have a lot of time available to enjoy our wonderful meal. Also had a charming conversation with the owner. A great spot on the Upper West Side.

Inside tables are WAY too close together requiring everyone to get up to get in or out. Sangria heavy, bitter. Food portions (mains) tiny. Duck tasteless and except for sauce and tough. Salmon apparently also. Pleasant staff.
This is our faaaaavorite place! It’s “our” place. Food is outstanding (a few faves are bacon wrapped dates, braised cauliflower with manchego, pork belly). Just one request: a CHOCOLATE DESSERT OPTION PLEASE😂 anything! Chocolate mousse…. Flourless chocolate cake…. A square of plain dark chocolate!!!! 🥰 we love you!

We were touring around and sat there for a couple of glasses of wine (very nice!) and pinchos at happy hour time. It was a Sunday, the bar and atmosphere were ok, better than the other places nearby. But coming from Chelsea down under the neighborhood felt dead, and not very in the mood. So this is clearly a biased review maybe.

Great go-to spot for tapas dinner with friends at high top tables. Price-worth wine selection and great staff. I always come back to Buceo 95 again and again.

I have no idea how this place has such high ratings. All of the dishes were either underseasoned or cooked improperly. The chicken croquetas lacked salt and were topped with a balsamic glaze, which was odd. The steak (Churrasco) also lacked salt and had a strange blob of garlic sauce on top. The menu was full of strange concoctions (not in a good way) that I’ve never seen at any other tapas place in the city. It
If you like flavorful dishes and salt, I’d avoid this place.

This restaurant is okay. Every bottle of wine I ordered (3 bottles) the waiter brought me the wrong bottle. The pane con tamate had virtually no tomato on it, the mushrooms, had way too much cheese on it, and the skirt steak had no salt on it and was under seasoned. I accidentally left my credit card there and asked them to drop the card in the mail. They were unable to do so. After spending over $500, they could not spend 40 cents on a stamp to return my card. I certainly will not be returning to this restaurant. The tapas was okay at best. There are many other restaurants with better tapas and pintxos.
