"Upon entering this grand property near the marina, you have to decide between taking the stairs on the left to the lounge bar, or those on the right to the restaurant. The cocktail list is definitely worth exploring, but we would nonetheless encourage you to immerse yourself in the refined Asian-inspired ambience of the restaurant. The cuisines of France and the Far East are fused with a sure touch. The dim sum are fantastic, particularly the soft steamed dumplings stuffed with pork and prawn, served with a trout roe vinaigrette. The crispy pork belly, with plum sauce for umami nuances, is also tempting. With such a wide-ranging menu, diners are spoilt for choice!" - Michelin Inspector

super nice place. got exactly what i came for. cool surroundings, more of a bar setting, lot of high seating. but the whole environment is really nice and feels very live. the service was amazing, all the staff super helpful with big smiles and clearly enjoying their time working there. for me, the food was missing that one extra step to be considered Michelin level, but everything was really tasty and amazing. some of the prices were surprisingly low all things considered. even with getting a Lobster, wine pairings and a deserved tip i paid under 300EUR definitely would recommend to visit!!!

Very nice atmosphere and styling. Great cocktails at the bar (I had a cosmogroni, which was a nice combo of a cosmopolitan and a negroni). Moved downstairs for the cosy restaurant which had shared dining and some nice wine pairings as recommended by the waitress. I can recommend the Dorade, which was also served beautifully.

It was nice, staff especially well trained. The food just wasn’t distinct enough. No powerfull seasoning ore edgy taste, it all tasted really save. I want more hardcore flavour. Nice to go but its not wow

We had a really lovely lunch on Dim Sunday! We went for the set and it was definitely a really good choice. The dim sums were elevated, not like your typical dim sums. The set was enough to fulfill your appetite. We especially loved the fried crab legs, it was juicy and flavorful. The cocktails we had were also very good (we had their twist of old fashioned and Bloody Mary). The wine list also seems relatively extensive, we had an expressive Gewurtztraminer at a good value. The staff were attentive and helpful. The terrace was beautifully decorated, and we were lucky to be seated where the sun was shining. We would definitely come back!

What can we say… what an absolutely brilliant evening, my mum and 2 sisters went there to celebrate my sisters 21st birthday and the food, ambience, the staff and the clientele were absolutely amazing. We only planned on having a meal and then going for drinks elsewhere however, the staff engaged us so much that we didn’t want to leave. We arrived at 7pm and stumbled out the door at 1am, it was an amazing evening. Achilleas was superb, it was like a scene from Cocktail, we couldn’t have chosen a better place!!!

We had a really lovely evening at Bar Bú. The host was very welcoming, she gave us a cute table in the garden. The garden is very cosy and romantic. The service was great, professional but also kind. The food was very good, our favorites were the pork belly and the tsjar siew (probably spelled it wrong!). The only minus for us was that people were smoking while sitting down and eating. As non smokers we weren’t really happy with that because we could smell the smoke quite bad. Nevertheless, we would recommend eating here.

I went for the Dim Sum sunday and was super delicious, the place in the garden is very beautiful and each dish was made with a lot of care. Best Dim Sum without a doubt
