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.

    Everything was awesome. We were seated close to the door and due to that it was a bit cold at our table.

    Amazing experience overall, we went there for a birthday and were not disappointed at all. We were seated at a good table in the middle of the restaurant but noise levels were very low. Service was outstanding and we had such a great time we were awaiting for our server next arrival to joke around together. Food was delicious and surprising in a good way. They even gifted the birthday boy a gift and provided a candle. Full course menu with wine was around $80 which felt perfectly reasonable for the quality. Loved our time there and we want to go back for another party’s birthday hoping we get the same server.

    Here for a birthday celebration. Our server Alex was extremely helpful with our order. The rest of the service staffs were excellent as well. The noise level was quite loud to have conversation except to the person sitting beside.
