Review Title: Not A Fan [ View All Reviews ]

Thank you, Anonymous, for your review of Buca! I'll eat almost anywhere except for Chili's, Olive Garden, and Buca. I just don't understand the appeal of the place. I guess it's good for large groups because it's something everyone can agree on and not be too offended by. But I can make WAY better Italian food, and being in the Bay Area, there are way too many other good restaurants of all different cuisines to try. The food is subpar (it's just bland and boring) and the service is average. And, I agree with Anonymous, it's a bit overpriced. The decor is kind of gaudy too (I think that's intended.) Try Spaghetti Factory, Al Castello, A Bellagio, Frankie Johnnie & Luigi, Mio Vicino (?), or Il Fornaio instead.
