Seafood + soul food: why Buca's is a Paterson one-of-one

Paterson has no shortage of good food. But walk 21st Ave and you'll notice something: the seafood spots do seafood, and the soul-food spots do soul food. Almost nobody does both, and definitely not under one roof, open till midnight.

Two comfort foods, one kitchen

That's the whole idea behind Buca's. Some nights you want to crack a bag of snow crab and get messy. Other nights it's mac & cheese and sweet plantains. Why should you pick a different restaurant for each? Here you don't.

Come see for yourself

We're at 433-435 21st Ave, Paterson: one of the highest-rated seafood spots in the city, and the only one serving soul food beside it. Noon to midnight, every day. Order online or pull up.
