Modern Italian Dining, Rooted in Tradition

Buca Vaughan was born out of a deep reverence for Italy's rich and varied regional culinary traditions, as well as an unwavering commitment to upholding the highest benchmarks of quality, culture, and design. We adhere to these principles by exclusively sourcing the finest, seasonally available ingredients from select purveyors and local farmers. Our enduring love for Italian culture fuels our dedication and passion in every dish we prepare.

Moreover, in a nod to our heritage, we have merged the beloved concepts of Buca King and Buca Yorkville. This union offers our guests an even more extensive and diverse culinary journey, celebrating Italy's timeless flavors and traditions.

    The restaurant was difficult to find. There is only a small non illuminated sign by the front door which wasn't too helpful in the dark. I had to stop and call the restaurant which was unfortunate. There isn't any parking that I can see so I opted to use the valet service. Not sure if this was the only option but it didn't seem wise to drive around looking for spot in the dark. The service was excellent as our waiter was especially attentive. However, we found the food to only be fair. It was good but really nothing that we felt justified the prices. Also, the kids mentioned that the portion sizes were small.

    The service was good, however not everything we tasted was good. We took a Fungii pizza, but it was overall very dry. One of the salads was not worth the price. No vegetarian pasta options on the menu. It was our anniversary, which we mentioned in our reservation, but they didn't even bring it up or anything. What is the point of asking about that while making the reservation.

    Food is very tasty and good but that 3 cheese appetizer is quite overpriced. Service is excellent provided you are in the restaurant as we called a couple of times to try to find the entrance but no one picked up the phone and we walked around in -10 C for over 10 minutes to find the entrance.

    Service was exceptional. Food was great. We were there to celebrate my husband’s birthday. The hostess gave him a spaghetti cooking kit as a gift at the end of our delicious meal. We had an enjoyable experience. Will definitely return.

    The lamb ragù was delicious in flavour, though a bit oily and pasta a bit too al dente. Friend ordered fish pasta but they were out of stock. She had pizza instead and it was good. Service was good and atmosphere beautiful. More vegetarian options for appetizers can help , especially those who do not eat red meat. Overall nice experience and I would go back to try something else on the menu.
