Meh.
This is okay. Interesting kitchy atmosphere, but the food is lacking. I think Buca thrives on the "quantity versus quality" philosophy of most Americans when it comes to food. We ordered two large salads(antipasti and apple walnut) and a small entree for two couples. The waiter made sure we meant "small" and not "large" and seemed to be taken aback by our lack of need to gorge. The salads were good, but nothing you can't do at home...although we ALL know even a mediocre salad is better when someone ELSE makes it! The entre was sub-par. It was a "sampler" of a few things...that all tasted relatively the same. The stuffed shells were OVERWHELMED by the amount of fennel in the sausage.
I would have to say that the best part was the bread. The iced tea was also good.
An okay place if you want massive amounts of "Olive Garden"y Italian.
