  • Quite possibly one of the funnest meals I've ever experienced in Toronto. This place is swank as hell but casual enough that you don't feel out of place if you're slumming it in jeans and a t-shirt. Let the rich yuppies look all dolled up and sexy, I'm here to EAT. The second you get in there's a whirlwind of chaos as it was quite packed and people are standing near the bar waiting for their tables. As we were waiting for the rest of our party to arrive, we were offered champagne and apps at the bar. Sure it took 15 minutes for the bartender to notice us but it was so busy that I guess that was to be expected. What arrived were deep fried pig ears (nice and fatty), some garlic pastry balls (kinda bland and boring) and some really nice beef stuffed olives. When we where finally seated, our waitress was super friendly and you could tell she was genuinely excited about the food. We had heard that Buca had the best pasta in town so we were equally excited to try everything, or at least die trying. We started with an assortment of chacuterie which was pretty fun to pick at and was all pretty damn tasty all around, but did not prepare me for what was coming next. Not often am I completely BLOWN AWAY by a dish, but my god my life has not been the same since. For a measly $58 you can get a pizza so incredible you will never enjoy another slice of anything in your life. The Bianca Truffle was absolutely delicious with a beautifully light but crispy crust, earthy goodness truffle flavorings accompanied by raw egg yolk brushed across the surface of tellegio cheese. My lower half is tingling just thinking about it. Anyways, our mains came and between the Carbonara, the Polenta, award winning Duck egg pasta and some sweet dish I don't remember, I would have to say that Buca is serious about their food and it freaking shows. After that, we ordered a cheese plate along with some dessert and my stomach was about ready to explode. Alas I regret nothing and would do it again given the opportunity. My only gripe with the place is they charged us for the apps at the bar while we were waiting, but never really asked us if we wanted any. The way they spoke, it seemed as though the offered it to everyone while they waited, but I guess you don't accumulate a $700 bill on giving out free food. Go eat that pizza.
