I'll tell you I was a little disappointed. First we were treated exceptionally nice by our server. We had a nice time as usual. I did notice the portions are smaller and the prices may have changed. We ordered one appetizer usually we order 2 or 3. The calamari was a real disappointment. Very little !!!! The portion was not worth buying. We won't be ordering it any longer and a couple other plates. Still had a wonderful time and friendly staff. I guess they made it up for the over price meal by not atmosphere as well . read more

A yearly luncheon for former coworkers is always awesome! The food, atmosphere and prices, amazing! What truly was a gift was our server, Mikela!!! Welcoming, thoughtful, kind, fun, always smiled and genuinely cared. Mikela, thank you for providing us with an exceptional customer service experience! read more

We have been to this location many times over the years some good experiences some really bad however this trip it has improved remarkably. Everything seemed fresh (food wise) with the salad was crisp and had just the right amounts of all ingredients. The waitress attentive and informative. The pizza was the best we've had here. Fresh, crisp and tasty. The manager came by to see how everything was which is always a plus to see care taken to ensure good customer service. I told her I felt Buca had stepped up and we will be back. Keep up the good improvement buca! read more

Food and service on point. Staff was friendly. Got the 4 for $40 deal. Good amount of food, enough to have leftovers for the next day :)

This is always a fun place to eat and we've been coming to this chain for years. We came on a Saturday night and it wasn't too busy at 6pm. The food was great, portions are big, and overall we are very pleased. Service wise there were a few hiccups. Our main entrees didn't for a loooong time and our dirty appetizers plates were never taken away. For about 15 minutes we sat there while the plates were sitting and my glass of water empty. Someone in our party ordered a cup of coffee and even after appetizers it still didn't arrive. I actually spoke to the manager on site at the time and she was really helpful and had the food brought out shortly after that. She made sure that we were taken care of and we really appreciate her. The server also came by to apologize, stuff like that happens we all have a bad day. Glad that we said something so that they knew what was happening and fixed it. read more

I ordered lasagna to go, noted to be good for 3-4 people, $40, $50 with tax and tip. I was impressed with the size of the aluminum container 12" x 6" at the top, 3" tall and tapering toward the bottom indicating the it would be substantial. I opened the cover at home to find the lasagna only filled 2/3 of the container and actually much less than that considering the vertical sides of the lasagna. Suddenly, my view changed from "a pretty good deal" to "another over-priced deal". I ate 1/4 of the lasagna + noodles I added for lunch. The lasagna was great! It just happens to be very small. I am grateful that they were open on Thanksgiving!!! read more

Okay. So my parents are in town and I got a takeout order for them. Whatever... the food is pedestrian and underwhelming. I expected that, although this Buca is worse than the average Buca. I'm giving them two stars largely based on the immense number of fake reviews that they purchased. Look at all the recent reviews. Look at how many call out "Cynthia" or "Emily." When do you see that? Who remembers the server's name at a chain restaurant? Am I supposed to believe that around 50 people did in the past few months and they all had a flawless 5-star experience? Please. Note that this place has like 480 not recommended reviews, all of which are terrible. Also this is the saddest neon sign that I have ever seen. I think if you want a image of the quality here, check out how there is zero attention or maintenance to this thing. read more

Food was great. Huge portions and tasted great. Service was excellent, not pushy or with frivolous add ons. Tiramisu was delicious at the end of the meal although we could not come close to finishing it. Prosciutto stuffed chicken was a high point as well as the Frutti di mare. read more

Food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Chicken Carbonara and the Penne ala vodka. Those are my two favorite go to orders. All the food is fresh and with great quality. The whole ambiance had great aesthetic and service. Both Bianco and Emily helped me a ton with any questions that I had. Even the manager, Dalia, personally answered and helped me out during busy times just to show how important they value the customers. By far the best restaurant you'll find. Family friendly and easy. Matias assisted me with any to go boxes and saw that I needed some. They have an amazing team, huge kudos to the kitchen. 5/5 stars check them out! read more

Jessica was amazing. The food was delicious and the vibe was perfect for a Friday dinner to celebrate my birthday.

Italian food by way of Cheesecake Factory. It doesn't help that I'm Italian-American but seriously, for these prices, I expect some resemblance to Italian food. Maybe I ask too much. We agreed that the tiramisu was bad, it was like the Sara Lee version of tiramisu, bearing little resemblance to how it should taste. It was stodgy, too sweet, devoid of coffee flavor. Not the creamy, dreamy coffee/rum desert it should be. The pasta dishes are all pasty and sludgy. Don't get me wrong, this is fun stuff and I'm glad I tried it but I hesitate to even call it food. And for these prices, I'm happy to just cook my own pasta! Never. Again. read more

The food was great and the service was amazing. Jessica was out of this world. I felt like I was with family.

AMAZING!! Jessica was an amazing and attentive server. I will be coming back again :) the background music was super good too. went well with the food. read more

Food is plentiful. We started with the chopped antipasti salad and proscuitto stuffed mushrooms. Salad came with pepperoncini, which is a plus. Stuffed mushrooms were delightful! Next came our entrees, lasagna and pizza. Lasagna was piled high with a hint of sweetness. Pizza was thin crust. Bring your appetite because these are family sized portions. read more

My son & I was recommended this restaurant from a long time friend and it exceeded our expectation. The atmosphere and scenery takes you through the life of Italian history. It was very clean and as soon as a customer left a table, there was someone not too far behind to sanitize and clear the table. Now, the main event.... The food was amazing, the authentic taste and seasoning was all there . My son asked to come back after his second bite. Best past in town, hands down! Our waitress was Andrea and she was so sweet. Before we explained it was our first time, she politely explained that its a family style restaurant and they serve big portions that ranges from a small shareable size to a large shareable size. Andrea was tentative, knowledgeable very sweet and very pleasant to have as a waitress. She informed us of the weekly deals because we All love a good deal. There is nothing to think about, if you love pasta and Italian food run don't walk and I guarantee you'll be back. read more

Of all the locations I have been to I was very disappointed that this location specifically let me down. On a Saturday, I was shocked they would run out of there famous meat balls so early. In addition, our main dish was served so late we had eaten all the other dishes already, and had to package the Fettuccine Alfredo to go!!! Our waiter unfortunately, treated me and my guest rudely. I don't want to pull the race card so I'll leave it here. Overall service was mediocre at best. The Ambiance of the restaurant is always rustic. Each location you will get an authentic Italian experience and enjoy the art filled walls. The camera guy was great, respectful, and had excellent customer service skills. 5 stars The food is always delicious and large portions are served. 5 stars on taste, quality, and temperature . My favorites are the Eggplant Parmesan, fettuccine Alfredo, and mozzarella garlic infused bread!!! read more

What a disappointment. First of all driving by this place we thought it was closed, few cars in the parking lot. Going inside the place it was empty, this is on a Sunday night by the way. Waited 10 minutes to be sat down and over 15 minutes for just drinks. Ordered pizza and Fettucine Alfredo. Pizza had a weird taste. Fettuccine Alfredo was so bland and seemed under cooked, no taste at all not even creamy. 3 hours later we are all at home suffering from stomach cramps and diarrhea read more

I've ate here twice. The first time I dined in, tons of seating and I got the baked ziti great portions for a great price. The restaurant was quiet and cozy. Then last time I got it I ordered out there fettuccine Alfredo and it was very good, tons of complimentary bread. The service is fast and friendly didn't take long at all for the food to come out. If you sign up for their text messages you get some great deals sent. read more

I took a few weeks off, but I'm glad I'm back again. Tonight was my first time trying this place out for date night & i came out amaze. Cynthia was our server Very helpful & very nice. The inside of the restaurant was crazy I'm a good way. The food was absolutely perfect. The taste of the margarita pizza was perfect. I'm in love with the mixed green salad the taste of the vinaigrette dressing is what's making me come back. The tiramisu was my husband first time tasting it & he said it was bomb. We will most definitely come back but this time with our daughters to try out the pasta. read more

This is the first time n probably will be the last. Since I have a coupon, I order takeout to see if their food is good. We ordered a small lagsana which is supposed to feed 3 people. However, it is a small portion, can only feed 2 people. Look at my attached picture. I cut it in half n show how small it is. Guess since I order take out, they give you a smaller size(cheating) and you can't complain until you get home. This is not right! I see all the pictures people posted are big portion when people dine-in. If they love to do business like this, they won't stay in business too long. read more

Cynthia did another phenomenal job as she hosted my family for a great meal! Cynthia is kind, professional, pays attention to detail. She is always courteous, polite and attentive. We enjoy our time taking in the Italian flare. As the restaurant gives homage to its roots. We prefer the early dinning with less people to enjoy our fellowship with one another. Cynthia checked on us often to ensure we had excellent service. We are coming back this weekend with the whole family. I hope Cynthia will be part of our weekend celebration! read more

Really disappointed with this Buca that we have been coming to for years. Made reservations weeks in advance for Thanksgiving as we had planned on having our Thanksgiving dinner here as we have had over the last few years. They called us several times to confirm the reservation which we confirmed, we were a large party of 13 with a bulk of the family members coming from out of town. On Thanksgiving day we get a call at 3:38pm (our reservation was for 6pm) telling us that they got a large order for Delta and that the Thanksgiving dinner was not available for us. I told the caller what was the point of making a reservation on thanksgiving to have thanksgiving dinner, only to call us at 4pm only to tell us it's not available so that's why they are calling us (I guess he figured 2 hours was enough time for us to find another place to have a family dinner!). To make a long story short, you rather give a big airline your business than to loyal customers who have been coming to your Redondo location for over 20 years. Got it! At the end of day dinner was scrapped! Thanks Buca! read more

I used to really love this place and I suppose it was because I used to eat their delightful garlic mozzarella bread... I don't eat that anymore so when I scout the menu I'm pretty unimpressed. Most recently I tried the spaghetti with meatballs. We ordered a large which was ridiculously priced at 37 dollars and it was so average that I was offended. Clearly those prices are strictly based on the name and branding because the spaghetti was effectively a ton of noodles, five meatballs, and some uninspired marinara sauce. They have bread with olive oil and vinaigrette which is decent but certainly nothing to write home about. read more
