Buccis

I won’t go back. The dinner salad was so drenched in commercial dressing that I couldn’t eat it and I had a difficult time finding the eggplant in my eggplant parmigiana dinner. There was too much cheese and sauce and the whole thing was greasy. The side dish of pasta was so undercooked that it was inedible. My dining companion enjoyed his angel hair with shrimp but only the shrimp. The angel hair was over cooked. So there you have it.

I have to say that my meal, though pricey, was extremely good. They have fantastic bread and butter for the table and their menu seems to have a little something for everyone (more so during lunch).
However, there were a couple set backs. Granted, we did visit towards the end of a Saturday night… We did not find the place in the best of shape.
— They were out of several of the menu items … (Which would normally be totally fine, however their dinner menu is not all that large… It did not leave us too many things for us to choose from.)
— They were out of a number of the liquors any normal bar would be fully stock with. (Bombay and good bourbon for example.)
— We were surrounded by dirty tables the entire 1.5−2 hours we were there. The same dirty tables! They were never touched. And frankly, they were not nearly busy enough (4 tables) for the place to stay trashed our entire visit.
— Lastly, the women’s bathrooms were gross. I would say 7 of the 10 they had to offer were graphically clogged.
Sorry guys. Good food, bad presentation…

I wanted to like this restaurant and support a local place but why bother. If you want caprese salad you can only have it a happy hour. Instead of trying to please a customer and accommodating me they argued and said bruschetta was just as good. Caprese salad and bruschetta are two different things. Save the trouble and go to Bucca Di Beppo or Olive Garden and get what you want when you want it. I’m irritated by the fact they were so willing to accommodate me.

i only had the complimentary breakfast here so the only review i can give is for the breakfast. The staff was super friendly and attentive, food was decent, that about it

Seems it’s trending down from my last review sorry to say if your staying at the hotel and you don’t want to drive a few miles then maybe. :-(

Buccis At The Crowne Plaza has a chef in there that belongs in San Francisco or The Gramercy Tavern. I have not had a decent veal parmesan since Little Joe’s in SF in 1977. The sauce is real family Italien — excellent. I count this as a real find. Live music on the weekends.

So we were in Cleveland for a family get together. We decided to stay at the Courtyard by Marriott across the street. Being bored and searching for happy hour, I found Bucci’s and decided to walk over for a beer. What I found was half price drinks, and good selection of beers at that, especially for a hotel bar. Put it this way, the Courtyard bar was terrible and extremely over priced. Anyway, we were supposed to have dinner that night at the Olive Garden, but upon arriving there was a fairly long wait. We decides to return to Bucci’s and try it out. It was an excellent choice. I had the chicken parm, my wife and her sister both had a shrimp dish. Both were very good and the service was friendly and attentive. We had chocolate ice cream and cheesecake for dessert. I would definitely recommend this place. Skip the chain restaurant around the corner.

I was very impressed with this hotel restaurant. The food was incredible. I had the ziti with meat sauce and added meatballs and Italian sausage. A perfect end to my long day.

Staff is nice. I had the soup/​salad combo topped with salmon, and the lobster bisque. I wasn’t impressed. The salmon was burned so they comped it and I didnt eat it. The lobster bisque was on the sweet side which I didn’t care for.

For the price — I’ll take it.
For my quick overnight purposes, I was pleased to find it was clean, they offered free wifi (although super slow), and it was incredibly easy to get to and from given its location to the freeway. You could tell this hotel has been around the block though: It’s ceilings were starting to crumble! You have yourself a suitable place to stay considering the price. As long as you don’t go on assuming it’s the downtown Hilton, you’ll be in good shape.

Good staff, good atmosphere.
