Best Italian Restaurants in Excelsior

Everything was great from start to finish. Server (sorry, forgot her name) was friendly and prompt. I had the Chop Salad and my colleague had the Bacio Burger and we both enjoyed our food!!!

The food and service was excellent - I'd go back just for the bread and even to sit in Jerome's section. He was fantastic - very attentive, knowledgeable and considerate of everyone. And the food - wow. We all raved about what we ordered, from the ravioli to risotto to the complimentary bread. The only negative was the noise level - it was very loud and I felt like I almost had to yell to talk to our party or would ask them to repeat what they said. Despite the noise, I would not hesitate to return for lunch.

We have been a patron of this Buca location for about 30 years, but had never visited at lunchtime. It was delightful! Adam was a fabulous server, the mixed green with prosciutto and Gorgonzola was excellent as always and the baked ziti, pepperoni pizza and chicken saltamboca were excellent too. Thank you Buca!!!

First class staff. Wonderful food. Great atmosphere.

It was a good dining experience. . . Roomy and the place was not too loud. I had mushroom risotto (which I shared with my son) and my husband had ribeye and a chocolate mousse we shared after the meal. Both were cooked to perfection. Our server was exceptional. We’re glad to hear that they will resume their lunch hours. We will definitely go back.
