I love Bucci! Every single time I come the food is amazing and the staff are excellent! I just had my hens night there and the staff were so accommodating even though they had to deal with 40 crazy women!! I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough. If you haven't tried it you must!!!
Awesome food with wide choice of wines, top-notch service, good prices. If you want to experience proper top quality italian food, Bucci is the place to go in Brisbane; being that said by an actual italian ;-)
Bucci è uno dei migliori ristoranti italiani in città dove si può star sicuri di trovare ottimo cibo con vasta scelta di vini di qualità, servizio raffinato e veloce, ottimi prezzi e situato in una delle aree più vitali della città. Decisamente vale la pena di cenarvi e passare una bella serata in compagnia.
Bucci has long been a family favourite & today just reaffirmed why.
Few Italian restaurants can provide authentic food and flavours, with a modern, refreshing twist.
Bucci is one that can and does - consistently.
Always welcoming- service is friendly but not familiar. Efficient, professional and the pace is always just right.
Our meals were perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. Portion sizes generous and perfect for sharing.
Chef attended the table to recommend a few dishes which were outstanding.
Excellent location. Love it!
I was part of Hen's night that recently booked out the private dining room at Bucci. We had a set menu and I was so excited to see that there were actually several options for me on it. The pasta I had was just a simple tomato and garlic sauce but it was absolutely delicious! the serving size did seem quite small for the price, however it was surprisingly filling and I am still dreaming about it. The service was very good (they were super tolerant of a bunch of loud girls) and the waiter made a note of my dietary issues and clearly passed this on to the other staff. Looking at the regular menu on their website it is a shame that they don't list what can be GF etc on the menu (other than that they offer GF pasta) so it's hard for me to get excited about visiting again and what I might order. Won't stop me coming back though!
The food was yummy, they had a great menu with a range of different options. There was a daily specials board too. Found it to be a little pricey, so save this restaurant and visit on a special occasion :) worth a visit!

My wife and I came in on Saturday night for her work's Christmas Party. We were a little late getting in, so by the time we were seated several antipasto platters were already on the table, and the staff were quick to take ours drinks orders. There were some language barriers with one of our waiters, but he was patient with us and our drinks were brought out promptly.
The antipasto platters were excellent, with just enough of everything that everybody could have a couple of bites with our drinks while we waited for mains.
I had the Bucci Angolotti while my wife had the Tagliatelle Con Cicale Di Mare. While both were wonderful, my wife's gluten free replacement option for tagliatelle was box penne which was a little disappointing.
For dessert we both had the Chocolate Nemesis Del "The River Cafe". What came out was a piece of cake that is taste and texture was very much like a well made brownie. I loved it immensely for it's flavor and texture and how well it went with the mascarpone.
One comment made by several people at our table was that there was a tendancy for the waitstaff to hover. Attentive service is always appreciated, but it seemed like a fork or a glass couldn't be put down without somebody appearing behind us.
The few cocktails we had were excellent as well. I would recommend the Amaretto Sour to anybody that way inclined, and the spirits list, while not extensive, has plenty of mid and high range options to keep spirit heads happy.
The only major issue was paying. There were some drinks missing off the bill and items appearing not to be paid for when they had. It was sorted out in the end but it made the end of the night a bit of a mess.
Overall though the food is lovely, the vibe is good, and the drinks are great. Happy to have been a patron to all three.

Came here last night for a glass of wine and dessert with my girlfriends. I was impressed with the wine menu and the different options. Majority of us had the flourless chocolate cake and despite the small Portion size we were all really impressed by how delicious the cake was. I will be back for sure!!
We had a group of 10, sat for our 7.30 booking and service was quick for drinks which was great. Bit difficult flagging down waiters at times but the place was absolutely packed! Ordered around 8.15ish but our mains didn't arrive until almost 9.30. We were starving and many of us ordered the Faggatoni pasta dish, 5 pieces of filled pasta which was absolutely delicious but no way in hell worth $30 due to the size and not filling in any way, we were starving. This was very disappointing. The place has a very loud, italian, lively vibe but I felt the tables were crammed far too close together, to fit more people in I'd assume. Would return but definitely order entrees
Late review but I had my wedding reception here in early April - best decision I ever made! The staff there are so lovely, and made the planning process painless and easy. We used the private dining room which seated about 20 people very comfortably. It is absolutely beautiful in there and was exactly what we wanted.
The food is oh-so-incredible and would eat here every night of the week if I could! Their prices for the set menu for functions is very reasonable for the quality and serving sizes of the food.
They even gave me a sparkler in my dessert :)
Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough. Thanks so much Bucci for giving me a perfect wedding reception.

Had the Mother Day's lunch at this restaurant. Even though it was very busy, they still kept the service very attentive and friendly. Ordered the entrée of Arancini and Black-lip Mussels to share, Mains were daily special risotto with pork belly, King Salmon and Lamb Rack with a steamed broccoli. Arancini was the best that I had so far of the same kind. Each of them was crunchy with gooey content that was refreshed with the spicy tomato relish. Mussels deserved thumb-up, again, it was the best that I tasted with such fresh and sweet mussel meat. I could not deny that I nearly wanted to lick all the sauce off the plate. Salmon was done perfectly med-rare and the risotto was also above average. Hero should be the lamb rack. There were two large thick cut lamb racks on the plate accompanied with crushed potatoes. The protein was done perfectly med-rare as ordered and I loved the touches of smoky flavour on the skin. The overall taste was so good that I nearly wanted to swallow the whole rib if it was boneless.
My favourite place for a cosy dinner out. Great as a couple or with the whole fam bam schzam. Great espresso martinis & the desserts are worth writing home about.
Long Friday lunch.
Stand out dishes were the char grilled calamari, Bucci Porchetta (Pork belly) and the sides of broccolini.
The mains are generous serves and full of flavour. Fantastic service throughout.
A few good wines available by the glass, however we opted for a number of bottles of great red from the predominantly Italian selection although there were also some excellent small producer Australian wines.
Long afternoon.
Had a wonderful birthday lunch for my mother in law here. The service was incredibly attentive and our waiter made some great suggestions, which we ordered.
All the food was fresh and beautifully but simply flavoured, and the prawn pasta was divine.
They served a lovely little birthday treat as well which was much appreciated.
Great atmosphere, good service, wonderful food. The pasta is fresh and brimming with flavour and there are some lovely wines available. We came here for a birthday and the staff were lovely & even wrote happy birthday on the dessert and added sparklers, which was a nice touch. I would definitely recommend visiting - one of the best Italian restaurants in Brisbane.
Great atmosphere, incredible but I mean wonderful customer service... The best. Food was fresh, flavoursome and right amount. Price a great reflection more of trendiness :) and great service than food quality but will go back again for sure :)
Love me some Bucci ❤ Great place for intimate bookings, large groups & birthdays. The staff are very friendly, and go out of their way to help. Food is delicious. I tried many of the dishes. I always love to order a side of Arancini, & some fresh bread. Had the Gnocchi recently, it was lovely, but i Love the Bucci Cabonara more👌 One of my faves. A nice selection of Wines and cocktails. Desserts are not too bad also. There are no splitt bill here, so if you go in a large group, just make sure all of you have a look at the menu online before hand, and bring cash❤ Note: It can get very loud sometimes, but if that doesn't bother you, it kind of adds to the atmosphere ❤
I have been here a few times now. The food is also exceptional and packed full of flavour! It is definitely worth while to book ahead as peak times can get abit busy. The service and knowledge by the staff is also exceptional. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
One of my favourite go to places for Italian food. Always a treat to try different things. I don't love the publicised sand crab linguine but I like other items on the menu. I tried Zuchinni flowers, Scallops, Octopus Salad as well. Felt that the Octopus was char-grilled a bit too much and left a strong bitter taste in my mouth. It was over-cooked. Loved the Scallops and Zuchinni flowers. Be aware that the tables are quite small so may not always fit all that you order.
Beautiful food. Attentive staff. You will not be disappointed. My photos cannot do justice.
Deliciuos food. Highly recommend their appetizers and the Pistachio dessert. Delicious risotto. Great atmosphere and friendly staff
