About this business
Specialties Located at the corner of Wilmington and Davie Streets in the heart of downtown Raleigh, buku is a local restaurant that tells a global story.

I always love walking over to Bu Ku! Such a great spot to experiment with new flavors! Great cocktail and wine list as well
We had a terrific dinner for my wife's Birthday! Joe was an excellent server! I love this place!
Had a wonderful dinner & experience. Our waiter Tim was knowledgeable about the menu. He didn’t hover but gave us the perfect amount of attention without overdoing it. Hope to return again soon! The food was incredible, mouth watering and we savored each bite!

The Vietnamese crepe by dining companion ordered was extremely tasty but just almost impractical to eat whether by utensil or hand. My ramen was just the best I've had since Japan and t... read more
