Buco.

This Gemmayzeh hotspot redefines the classic burger joint with the precision of a chef-driven restaurant. Launched by Noma alumnus Tarek Alameddine, Buco treats the humble burger as a culinary event rather than bar food, utilizing premium ingredients across a focused menu. Guests can opt for a classic cheeseburger or elevate the night with Wagyu, mulberry bacon, or miso BBQ variations, alongside creative sides like mini lobster rolls and fries served in martini glasses. Designed with warm terracotta tones, the sociable space seamlessly blends an open kitchen, a dining area, and a lively bar. The drink program is just as ambitious, featuring expertly crafted cocktails like thyme gimlets and dry daiquiris that make Buco as much a late-night hangout as a dinner destination.
