    Great food and great service. Heads up. Plates are huge, so if your party is 2 or 3, I suggest you agree in advance what to eat and share. My first time here and definitely not my last.

    Great food served family style. Our waiter was great. We had a lot to catch up on with friends and he never rushed us. The pasta dishes were very good. The Brussels sprouts were on the greasy side which I didn't care for but the Bruschetta was great and food was great.

    We haven't really been to Buca in a while. But it seems like it has become quite expensive for what they serve. Large plates of pasta was over priced.

    The food was delicious. We were a party of 8 people and the hardest part was trying to determine which entrees to order! The menu isn't really clear about how the food is served family style so for a party of 8 (with 4 children), we ordered 2 entrees and still had plenty leftover to take home. Cruz was our waitress and she was attentive and did a great job. We ordered spaghetti w/meatballs (the meatballs are huge), shrimp with penne pasta (the sauce was delicious), and a small cheese pizza (which wasn't small). We probably ordered too many appetizers: calamari (a large portion), fried cheese, a mixed salad and meatballs. The calamari was delicious and my husband even ate some and he doesn't care for it! For dessert we ordered tiramisu and the enormous ice cream Sunday.

    Food is always fantastic. We had the trio appetizer-spicy shrimp to die for! The arribbiata pizza was so good. Had our favorite spicy chicken rigatoni. Service was good. Wine good. 3 courses with bottle of wine for 4 people with leftovers for $160. Great value.

    The ambience and service were excellence. Our server, Eddy, was very attentive without being intrusive. Our table was ready for us as promised, and our meals were served in a timely manner. Warm fresh bread and the mile high Chocolate cake were amazing. The fettuccine sauce left a little bit to be desired...was just a bit bland. Otherwise a very good meal!

    Had a wonderful birthday celebration at Buca. This is about the third time I’ve done so, and possibly my best overall experience. My server made sure to keep our drinks refilled and checked on us regularly. All food came out exactly as ordered, even the special ordered items. They even made sure to ask whether I’d prefer to not have them sing. lol All in all, a wonderful experience that didn’t feel rushed, and service that made us feel welcome.

    If you’re looking for a quiet family dinner. This place is NOT for you. We were seated in small room in the back of the restaurant. Midway through our dinner, a party of THIRTY was seated in the same small room. We left without finishing our food because our autistic children could not handle the noise level. When we told the manager of the problem she stated “because we were a walk in (we were not as we had reservations for four at 1830) we were seated where they found a place for us.” I wouldn’t recommend this place for anyone near and dear to me. We will not be coming back.

    A group of us went, a few of them for the first time. I had been hyping it up for a while, and it was everything I had promoted! Everyone was so excited, amazed & pleased with everything. The food was outstanding. Our waiter, Steven, was the best. We all enjoyed it so much, and are already talking about our next visit.

    Thanksgiving was a stormy day and part of our group was stuck in the rain traffic. The waiter was rude by saying we only were allowed a limited time to order food. So we ordered the dinner for 3 so not to tie up his table. The salad was not brought out before the main course, so we inconvinced them to pack it togo without dressing. The main courses were brought out together with limited gravy for turkey, stuffing and potatoes. They said they would bring more gravy (charged $7 extra). Our friends showed 45 minutes late for the reservation, while we were packing leftovers. They were not allowed to keep the table, so they ate at the bar.
