About this restaurant

Good for business meals
Fancy
Great for fine wines

Buca Osteria & Bar is more than an Italian restaurant. In the spirit of the widely celebrated first location of Buca on King Street, the outpost in the heart of Yorkville is a place to be inspired by the innovation of the restaurant’s creative, artisanal fare, rooted in Italian tradition. Buca Osteria & Bar offers a broad selection of fresh and impeccably prepared seafood, in addition to their much loved pizzas, pastas, and cured fish. Executive Chef Jorge Fiestas creates an authentic Italian seafood cuisine. Buca has consistently been celebrated for using the freshest, carefully selected ingredients. Featuring sophisticated décor and an open-concept kitchen, the restaurant’s warmth and attention to detail stand out, both in environment and ingredients.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Jorge Fiestas

From the OpenTable editors: The Yorkville outpost of celebrated Italian restaurant Buca delivers its signature housemade pastas and Roman-style pizzas while adding a seafood focus. The restaurant’s polished dining room and open kitchen exude sophistication, while whole raw branzino—a must-order that’s nimbly carved tableside—adds theatrical flair to the experience.

Overall not the best visit compare in the past. First air conditioning was not working it was too hot. Service missed a mark. Then you order $200 and have to pour yourself it’s embarrassing. Octopus was the highlight it was so tender and juicy. Crudo was served warm wish it was more chilled. For $600 expected more.

A manager or the guy is responsible for food and service for 1 of 10. He looks like he is a manager.

Food was a little cold. Wines were overpriced. Lobster pasta was ok, but not worth the premium price. It should be priced at 30 to 40 CAD given the quantity of meat and portion. Sauce was good though. Squid pasta was well priced and excellent. Two cocktails and tiramisu we had were great. Customer service was excellent and attentive. Place was a little loud at times.

The food was decent but the service was extremely poor. We waited so long for each course to be served. I don’t understand why our main courses came one at a time instead of all in one like the other tables. For eg. we ordered a pizza and a pasta but they came one at a time with an extremely long wait in between which made me not even hungry anymore. Asking for the bill was also another long wait. Honesty didn’t want to give 18% tips but the server was standing right beside us and looking while we were tipping… I initially wanted to try their tiramisu but didn’t end up ordering bc I was sick of the wait😅😅

Came here again for the branzino and duck breast. Both are delicious! We also ordered the octopus and pizza for main. They were cooked to perfection and the portions were very generous. We were barely able to fit the tiramisu in … but it was worth every calorie! Highly recommended.
