Dear valued guests and community partners,

It's incredible to think that 15 years ago we transformed an old boiler room into BUCA and are very happy to share the next phase of our journey with you. As part of our ongoing commitment to innovation, our original King Street location will be closed for renovations until late spring. We can’t wait to share what's next in just a few short weeks.  

This renovation isn't just about giving our space a facelift; it signifies our unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence. Our incredibly talented team will be hard at work crafting an atmosphere that fosters creativity, connections, and community. 
 
We're immensely grateful for your steadfast support over the years, and we're eagerly anticipating the opportunity to welcome you back to see what we have in store for you!

    The menu options were predominantly Pork dishes, offering only a limited selection to choose from. The wait time for the dish exceeded our expectations. I had high hopes for the Mille fuille dessert, but it fell short of my expectations. As for the cocktail, it was rather ordinary and lacking in originality. The overall cost of the place was quite steep, considering the underwhelming quality of the food.

    To say I was disappointed is an understatement. I paid $55 for a truffle pasta that tasted bland and burnt. Our server barley checked on us and I had to reminder her multiple times to take glasses away and to get us refills on our drinks. I only took three bites of my truffle pasta but my server didn’t ask if there was wrong till after the bill was given. Not to mention we were sat in a dark corner next to a DIRTY wall and to top it all off the bathroom toilets were ALL broken! Will not be back

    I have been to Buca several times and always enjoyed the experience, with the exception of last night. My meal was tasteless and our waiter gave 2 people in our party dirty looks. I’ve never in my life had such rude service.

    This place nerve disappoints. The service and food are some of the best in the city. Everything on the menu is worth coming back for.

    The salumis and cheeses were excellent! We really enjoyed the selection. The pizza 'salumi de buca' was one of the best pizzas I've had in Toronto. We also had the corzetti al tartufo and it was ok, nothing great, we thought it wasn't worth it. Service was going ok, but in middle of the dinner our waiter disappeared and nobody took her place. We overheard the table next to us complain about the same thing, and seems like our waitress had finished her shift and left. I understand that happens, but it was weird that nobody took over. We ordered dessert and asked for the bill to random waiters. The manager came at the end and apologized; he mentioned our dessert would be on the house and offered us some complementary limoncello. So even though serviced missed a bit, it was nice they tried to make up for it. I would recommend and return.
