Reviews
Finally made it to La Buca and it met our expectations.nnThere was free parking on the streets out front and around the corner. We made reservations and were warmly welcomed into the cozy single room restaurant.nnThe menu was simple and easy to understand but our server was on hand to go through highlights and specials and offer his suggestions for his favourites. We opted to order four items to share between three people and it was a perfect amount.nnWe ordered the foccacia which we added to the one included with the burrata. This dish was perfect but the foccacia were so tiny. We wanted more! Tasty but little.nnThe gnocchi was perfect and we all commented how the bed of peas they were on tasted like they came straight from the garden.nnThe tagliolini ragu was done to a perfect al dente but quite small for the $35. Not my favourite dish of the evening but it is a good pasta.nnThe chicken cacciatore was of excellent quality. Tender and perfectly done. Heavenly flavours.nnAll in all a nice fine dining experience but make sure you are comfortable with the fine dining prices before you sit down to the attentive service and wonderfully cooked dishes.
Really enjoyed our dinner at this small restaurant. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but the interior is charming. Our server was fantastic, really helpful on guiding through the menu options changes daily and wine list will be changed soon from the current Italian offerings.nnThe food definitely had some high points: the prosciutto-wrapped asparagus was amazing, the ravioli super tasty, and we shared an incredible flourless chocolate cake. But...the focaccia was simply too small for the cost, and the pastas were too salty which the server said the kitchen had realized. Free street parking. Looking forward to trying again!
We had a fantastic experience here for dinner. Food was amazing, service was superb, and the atmosphere was perfect. Our waiter was very knowledgable and easily made informed recommendations based on our taste preferences. The price point is on the upper end, but you absolutely get what you pay for.

Just stumbled upon this place as it was in the neighborhood of the Airbnb. Found it packed but was able to get in without a reservation with only a 20 minute wait. The focaccia bread was great. At the first bite of pasta I knew this was the best Italian food I’ve ever had. This makes me sad because I know I will never be able to make it back here. Excellent service. The dessert of chocolate cake and raspberry sorbet was the perfect ending. Went back again the next night I never do that but sadly it was closed on Sunday. Only minor complaint is it’s a bit noisy.
