Best Romantic Restaurants in Maple Grove

Our server was Mandy. She was AMAZING!! She made sure we had an excellent time, and gave amazing service! We do not remember seeing it posted in the menu that the tip would be included on the bill. If it was there, it should be more visible, as to not be a surprise when the bill comes. That is not good business, nor good for your staff. Mandi’s tip would have been at least 25% (because she was so wonderful!) had it not been 18% on our bill. You really did her a disservice. The FLAT plates are beautiful, yet NOT something that food with any juice/liquid should be placed upon! When our meals were served, steak juice went all over me as the food runner placed the plate upon our table. Mandy was extremely apologetic and offered everything she could/within her power to make it right. It was ok, because she was NOT at fault… the owners were… poor decision to use flat plates!!!! The manager offered dry cleaning, but our flight home was the next day, so no dry cleaning could be done here. We were served free dessert. All-in-all, we had a wonderful time!! ALL of the staff was very friendly, and welcoming. We travel here often for both business and pleasure, and will be back! Our dinner guest was with Hilton management, and she was so impressed, that she will be bringing her clients to this location, as often as she can. We will most definitely ask for Mandy!

I had the duck, which is new on the menu and was delicious, and my husband went for the fried chicken dinner, which has been on the menu for awhile and also delicious. We sat at the bar, and had great service. We don’t come as often as we’d like because it’s a busy place, but definitely one of our favorites. Kudos to the chef for all the new dishes on the menu!

Food and service were great as always. Tried a new cocktail which was also very good. One of our favorite restaurants. Appreciate that they take reservations.

We come to this location for Christmas each year and sometimes for Mother's day or Easter. We are delighted to find a restaurant open on Christmas and never take that for granted. We had a party of 7 and ordered 2 meat entrees, a vegetarian entree and a salad, all large. We received excellent service. Food was great, though we notice small changes in the recipes from year to year that we like a little less. Still, it's great food, makes great leftovers and is the best option for a large group outside of cooking at home. We love Buca and hope to continue coming here for years to come!

What a fun valentines dinner. Loved the decorations and the fun staff.
