Not only are the wait staff very friendly, Becca was an absolutely wonderful server! She made sure nothing would clash (plates wise), and we enjoyed talking with her after our meal was finished! The food was absolutely amazing, to the point where we needed take out boxes because we don't want any to go to waste at all. Enjoying authentic Italian cuisine is only enhanced by the atmosphere of the restaurant, as the building feels as though it were perfectly set in Italy. I would absolutely come back time after time, though if I did, I'm 100% sure I would have to buy pants 10 times my size. Highly recommend for any and all foodies, food critics, tourists, and people living in the area!

The food is great! This restaurant serve family style portions, and the portions are pretty true to what they say they feed. I went with a party of 7 and there were some leftovers. The only thing that was disappointing was that we made reservations here specifically to celebrate a birthday, which they asked if there was a special occasion over the phone when making the reservation. But they forgot all about the birthday, didn't acknowledge it at all.

Came with my husband to try a new restaurant and we loved it. The food & portions were awesome for the price & the dessert we got was delicious. Hostess was very nice & got us in quickly. Our waiter Wyatt was awesome, super knowledgeable about the restaurant & food. Made suggestions on what we might like and answered our questions about items.

First time here, and I must say the place is amazing! There are tons of pictures of actors and actresses of days gon by. Our waiter Ron was very attentive, welcoming, and on the spot. I will definitely be coming back. Even the little one enjoyed the meatballs.

30 min wait for my drink that the waitress forgot about 1 hr wait for some soggy over cooked spaghetti.
Before the rest of my food even got to the table I asked for to-go boxes. Didn’t even want to try anything else. 4 meals wasted. I should’ve just left and not paid.
Edit got home tried the rest of my 150 dollar meal, all horrible! Disgrace to Italians

We had a very enjoyable evening visiting Buca. The Chicken Saltimbocca was delicious and light. The Baked Ziti was so tasty with dollops of ricotta cheese on top. Our server, Tifany, was very helpful and accommodating. We will definitely return when we are in the area.

Baked Ziti
On our first (and only) visit so far we had to wait a long time in the lobby. When they received us, the treatment was very friendly. When we were at the table, the service was terrible: they did not tell us the size of the ice cream cup, the drinks were thrown and spilled on the table, they did not clean it, there were no introductions, greetings or explanations. The food was very good and I was surprised to find spicy options. I don't know if I would go back.

This was our first time here. We loved it! The place is adorned with all kinds of photos and memorabilia, which gives the place a family atmosphere. As a matter of fact, all the meals are served family style. A "small" feeds 2-3 according to the menu and a "large" serves 4-6. My wife and I got an appetizer sampling which had spicy shrimp (very good, just the right amount of heat), calamari, and fried mozzarella. For our main course we chose the chicken carbonara. It was amazing! Our server Fred was extremely friendly and helpful, also attentive without being over bearing. Our portions were way more than we could ever have finished in one meal, and we basically had more than enough for a second meal to take home. Keep this in mind when you get the bill! It's not cheap but worth every penny. Can't wait to go back again.
