  • I have been a big fan of rob gentile's Buca empire (includes bar buca and buca on king west). This place is tucked away in a condo building next to the chic four seasons hotel in yorkville. Reservations are hard to come by easily, earliest available table on tue night was at 10 PM. When we walked in, the place was absolutely buzzing with activity. We sat in front of the open kitchen which was a fun experience. This osteria focuses more on seafood but some of the dishes are prohibitively expensive. We ordered the GNOCCO FRITTO with swordfish n'duja and the PUNTARELLE salad. The squid ink dumplings were soft and warm but did not pack a punch from a flavor perspective. The chicory was bitter in the salad but the pesto held it together. We also ordered the RAVIOLI DOPPI - double-stuffed lobster filled pasta, sweet corn, ragu di mare, lobster bottarga, uncinato truffle. I love truffles but talk about wasting such a high quality ingredient on a dish. There was really no truffle flavor and for the price we paid this dish felt like a waste of money. We shared a pizza as well - SALSICCINE - cured spicy sausage, virgin mozzarella, bariole olive, testun di barolo cheese. Although I liked the crust, the flavors were not a hit with my palate. We were encouraged to order a dessert so we went for zeppole with pistachio cream. Honestly, this did not excite me too much except for the pistachio cream. This place definitely caters to a well heeled yorkville clientele but also maintains a sense of humility with the service. I definitely prefer the king west digs to this location.
