Buca has been on the top of my must-try restaurant lists for a while, and my birthday was the perfect opportunity to go celebrate and catch up with my girlfriends. I must say.... Buca has surpassed my expectations! The service was impeccable! The servers were so detail oriented and attentive, that every time one of us left the table, they would fold their napkin or have a fresh one ready. Our waters and wine was continuously topped off and plates, cutlery changed after every course. Now, the food... WOW! We ordered the Salumi Di Mare 5 choices of cured fish to start, followed by the broccoli e salssicia pizza, squid ink pasta and polipo. Each and every bite was fresh and perfectly seasoned. You could taste the ingredients, and how it complimented the dish. For dessert, we shared a tiramisu, torte, and Italian waffle, so delightful!!! To top off an amazing night, a server came to the table, gave me a box that was compliments from the chef for my birthday... it was Un piccolo pensiero, fresh pasta for two!!! What a surprise! I can't wait to make it at home this week and remind myself of my great dinner experience.
