    Yikes. Service - horrible. Waited 1.5 hours past being seated for food. Waitress acted like she’d rather do anything than be there the entire time.

    I used to go to this chain many years ago, and it has consistently gone down hill. Took a party of five here and we ended up spending $250 including tip. This is not an inexpensive place and the food quality just doesn’t hold up in value. Our entrées were not bad, but the pasta was over cooked and the flavor not so great. The salad seemed old and wilted and the garlic toast is just not good. We did have a good server.

    I made reservations in advance - for 10 originally but reduced to 4 final count and made the change online 24 hours in advance. I was disappointed to be seated in a bar booth rather than in the dining area which I think offers more ambience. The bartender was also our server - she did an alright job. The food was good but definitely not worth the pricing. Thank you but won’t be planning to return anytime soon.

    I had the ravioli as my meal and it didn’t seem like they used the right cheese in it which lead to a weird texture and taste to it, it is supposed to be ricotta but I have no clue what was actually in it

    Yes I would highly recommend Buca’s to anyone to go eat which I have already. Such a great place the food and our waitress Alisha was great. We always request Alisha for our waitress she is the best always pleasant and making sure we have everything we need to make our dinners perfect. Love the place and staff we try to come at least once a month

    Kitchen having a bad night? Rigatoni noodles were barely covered, dry and hard. Caprese salad no balsamic, and oil hard to find. Garlic bread was toasted to crispy crunchy and dry brown cheese. Chicken Parmigiano with ma6be a tablespoon of red sa7ce for three pieces. Don't usually leave harsh reviews but this was our experience.

    We went late on Christmas Day. They couldn’t have been nicer, from the hostess to the server. The food was delicious (chicken Parmesan and pasta with meat sauce and a side of Italian sausage)! We had enough leftovers for at least two more days. We will definitely go back and can recommend it without reservations.

    Three of us went for Thanksgiving dinner and had a wonderful time. We ordered the feast for 3, which could have easily fed 5. An abundance of food — platters of salad, choice of one of three pastas, turkey and sausage cornbread dressing, garlic mashed potatoes and gravy, green beans, cranberry sauce, bread and pumpkin pie. It was served family style and everything was delicious! We packed up the leftovers and enjoyed them the next day. Service was friendly and very attentive. And we were not rushed. Great place for a holiday dinner.

    I was hoping to have a nice meal, this was my very first time eating out for Thanksgiving and the food was terrible! It appears they open the can of sauce and put a scoop with the spaghetti. The turkey was dried and stuffing was hard! The cranberries were not cranberries. Terrible experience for a thanksgiving feast! Poor, Poor and Poor!

    Food was outstanding as always - we got the Caesar salad, chicken parmigiana, baked rigatoni and cheesy bread! The service was AWFUL. We were there for almost 2 hours for lunch. There were two tables with different waiters behind us, and they arrived about an hour after us and finished before us. It was very irritating.

    Colorful, fun setting of old was tired and run down. No Italian music or Dean Martin/Sinatra. Instead 60’s oldies. Appreciated the coupon for $20 and free birthday sundae because very expensive for the quality of food. Generous enough portions of chicken Marsala, chicken lemone, fettuccine Alfredo, rigatoni, plus salads and bread that looked good but lacked flavor and tasted different than in the past. Birthday Sundae was very good and enjoyed by all.

    Food was at best pre-made reheated. No flavor at all in their self proclaimed world famous meatballs. Waiter was horrible, ordered drink, they didn't have what I ordered so just made didn't drink and brought it to me. I personally will never return, spent over 200 dollars on Stauffer microwave family meals.

    We were a family group of eight who came in to celebrate my daughter’s high school graduation. The food was fresh, delicious and the portions were generous. The quality was good, although a couple items like the calamari seemed to be a cheaper “cut” (onion ring like pieces outnumbered the more authentic tentacles pieces). What bothered us the most was the server’s assertive efforts to clean up our table between courses. It made us feel rushed, like they wanted to clear our table for the next customers, although we were not there during a rush time (we were the only people in our section of the restaurant). Overall the food and ambiance were good but the pace of rushing us along seemed really out of place for an Italian restaurant.

    Food was good. Service was horrible had to ask three different times for dinnerware. And they still couldn’t get it right. Some people in our party were actually eating with a knife. Our food was delivered and no dinnerware! And then you wait. And wait. And wait some more. Seemed a little over prices for pasta!
