In Short – Bussaco doesn't fit in neatly with its Park Slope neighbors: The Nerve daters at Tea Lounge next door and the aging hippies at the co-op are unlikely to get behind this grown-up restaurant. In his latest venture, chef Matthew Schaeffer has created a menu mixing his haute cuisine background at Le Bernardin (e.g. poached striped bass with manila clams) with more playful Brooklyn touches (e.g. a fried poussain with homemade waffles).

Creative, fresh and delicious food!
by mimigk
The dishes change with the seasons, guaranteeing fresh ingredients, and are simultaenously healthy and provocative. One recent evening, friends and I shared one another's entrees and loved them all! The buttermilk friend chicken, duo of lamb with scallion crepes, white grape gaspacho, and strawberry-blueberry shortcake were sensational. The wine list is reasonable yet distinctive, and the ambience is perfecto. Can't recommend it highly enough.
- Pros: Best Choice of Dishes
- Cons: No separate party room

My favorite neighborhood spot
by Ellamaez
I love this sophisticated, understated room with plenty of space to hang with my friends. The wine program is great. I go often on Fridays for the Friday Night Flights to enjoy different types of wine. The food is spectacular with lots of fish choices whether I want to eat light or have a full meal. Now they have my favorite dessert, peach shortcake. Don't forget the Sunday barbeque. What could be better!
- Pros: Excellent wine program
- Cons: Too many choices

We've had several wonderful meals at Bussacco. The room is lovely, the people are friendly, and most important the food and wine are spectacular. I love the bar menu, which is affordable and delicious. The clam pizza is amazing! I highly recommend Bussacco, and will be going back.
- Pros: great food, great atmosphere
- Cons: not the best location
