Come dine with Michelin Guide awarded Chef Guillaume Robin at the Fabulous Wave Hotel. Influenced by the many flavors of Central and South America, and centered around a dramatic open theater kitchen, BACÁN is elevated yet approachable, innovative, and just a little bit unexpected.

To ensure the most sophisticated experience, we politely request all guests be respectful in their choice of attire while adhering to the following guidelines. For gentlemen we consider tank tops, sleeveless shirts, ripped jeans and flip flops too casual for our restaurant. Ladies are encouraged to wear dresses and skirts, casual dress pants, or jeans (no rips) with a stylish top. All guests should refrain from wearing ball caps, team athletic wear or clothing with offensive language. Any guest denied entry due to our dress code can be accommodated immediately or in the future after adhering to our attire guidelines.

    Beautiful restaurant with great food but the service was way below par, which is unexpected and a Michelin recommended restaurant.

    Excellent Service and Ambiance, but Disappointing Food The ambiance and service at Bacán are truly outstanding, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to the setting. The Parcha cocktail felt more like juice than a proper cocktail, and the red snapper, while decent, lacked the richness and flavor I was hoping for. Overall, the experience left me without a desire to return. While I appreciate the effort, the culinary offerings fell short of expectations.

    We were celebrating our 24th anniversary. Bacan did not miss a beat. Greeted by name with anniversary acknowledgement verbally and on a souvenir personalized postcard. We had excellent service by Courtney. She made super suggestions. We enjoyed the Tuna Crudo starter so much we ordered a second. The smoked old fashioned was excellent, the carne asada and snapper were both excellent in their own right. The caramel sauce on the bananas foster dessert was spectacular. We will return for this very memorable dining experience.

    Truffle chicken is no longer good. Sauce has no truffle taste. Just tomato sauce. Wine over priced!! 3x the retail price. It seems like they are over charging customers to generate profit or pay for lease.The service was too much with too nsny bus boys asking to take plates over and over. Definitely no where near a michelin type experoence.

    Expensive, but you get what you pay for. One of the best places to eat I've ever been. Interesting, novel, fresh dishes of top quality.
