About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Fancy
  • Good for special occasions
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.

    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😅😅

    The best crudo in the country. Delicious nodini, pizza, anchovies, wine and pasta as well. Lovely service. An overall perfect evening that my clients loved.

    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.

    Food was excessively oily and didn't have much flavour. The warmed olives and knotted bread appetizers were delicious (but also very oily). Staff was surprisingly unattentive. We were seated in a corner by the front doors which had a nice window and away from the busier parts of the restaurant, but it's almost like they forgot about us. The mains took a long time (45 mins) to arrive and wasn't very warm. We had to get up and look for our server (which they changed at the very end of our meal) and then were told they were having system issues. The bathrooms were out of hand towels too. It was a very unfortunate experience as we had heard good things.

    The service is excellent, the cocktails and wine were excellent. I had the beet salad and the black cod. The beet salad was fine, but not up to Buca standards - nothing super flavourful. The black cod was also - fine - just nothing special. The saffron rice was delicious but I dont love having a plate filled with oil at the end of my meal - just doesnt feel right.
