| - Overall, we really enjoyed our dinner at Buca.
It was a very hot early evening in Toronto, so we decided to dine inside. After walking down the stairs to the host stand, we got seated in the inner, lower level of the restaurant. We ended up ordering:
Fried zucchini blossoms: I love these, and always end up ordering this when I see it on the menu (small portion, though, with only two blossoms to an order)
Charcuterie board: we ended up picking prosciutto and two salamis, which were all made in house (we walked past the hanging hams and salamis on our way to our table)
Nodini bread: these bread knots were really good, though the bread is a little hard on the outside
Fusilli with tomato and anchovy: couldn't really taste the anchovy, but the pasta was nicely cooked
Scallops with guanciale, peas and yogurt sauce: this was my favorite dish that we ordered. I always like well-cooked scallops, and the yogurt sauce was an interesting and tasty surprise with the scallops
On top of the really good food, our server was very professional and personable throughout te meal. I would return to Buca if I am in Toronto again.
