Little Buca Restaurant

"We have dined at Little Buca numerous times in the past few months, and it has become one of our favorite special spots. Atmosphere and service are always top-notch, the staff is extremely warm and welcoming. Food is absolute perfection- we have enjoyed pastas, steaks, fish, salad… all have exceeded my expectations. Little Buca does Italian as Italian should be done. Can’t wait to go back!"

"Very disappointed. Food was just average (though portions were a generous size) and overpriced for the quality. While the atmosphere was nice decor wise, the rushing us thru our meal by the staff and the rudeness of a man who I assumed to possibly be an owner killed any kind of welcoming vibe they were trying to achieve. If only they had refilled my wine glass as many times as they asked to take my food away. I was afraid to put my fork down. Not an enjoyable experience at all."

"Little Buca is a fantastic neighborhood secret. The food was fresh and tasty. I especially loved the yummy little charcuterie app board they gave us before we ordered. That was a nice touch. The clams were yummy as was my house made pasta. And I was in love with their chocolate ricotta cheesecake. I will definitely visit again. They only take cash payments but don’t worry they have an ATM."

"Do yourself a favor and visit this lovely restaurant in Little Silver! A little slice of Manhattan in the heart of town! The service is unmatched. Our server was attentive. He noticed I brought a bottle of white wine and immediately brought over the ice. The staff truly cares about your experience from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted melted in other mouths. Chef Franco is the real deal! Absolutely the best. He came over to make sure we enjoyed everything. Highly recommend stopping in! For a party of 3 we ordered... Little Buca Meatballs, Sicilian Salad, Tuna Crudo, Impepata di Cozze e Gamberi, and Zucchini Fagottini to start. For our main course we all shared the pasta Buca di Positano and Vitello Funghi. We all were able to take food home. They are very generous with their portions. For dessert let's just say we ordered one of each lol! Can't wait to be back!! The best dessert by far is the Italian Cheesecake (still dreaming about it!) The tiramisu is perfect, too!!"
