Breakfast Menu "Osteria La Buca" Los Angeles

Good, but not great Italian restaurant. The food is tasty, but isn't quite traditional (ie there shouldn't be cream in the cacio e pepe recipe, the ragù was too sweet). The staff is very friendly and the place modern and well decorated (loved the helmets!).

The restaurant exuded a one-of-a-kind ambiance that filled me with pure delight. Our service was exceptional and all of my requests were graciously accommodated. The food we were served was beyond delicious and left me salivating for more.

Amazing pasta, appreciate the hasty service but maybe ease off filling our water and checking if everything is alright every other second! Just leave us be and let us enjoy the food! Can’t wait to return next time I visit LA.

Had lunch here and was absolutely blown away with how delicious it was! Pictured is the short rib ravioli, bolognese, and the brown butter and sage tagliatelle. Extremely fresh and the flavors were phenomenal. The two favorites in particular was the short rib ravioli and the bolognese. 10/10! Highly recommend!!!

Overall a good experience. I would recommend checking it out at least once. The Rib Eye Cap was our favorite dish. The cacio e pepe was just ok. Wouldn’t recommend the Hamachi Crudo if you are into a traditional version. Wine is eh… kinda over priced for the selection. If you dine upstairs be mindful it’s got an indoor/outdoor vibe within a fireplace but NGL it was hot af up there 🤷🏼‍♂️. The servings are on the smaller side with less starches/carbs and more veggies. TBH the veggie selection/usage is was nice if you are more keen to veggies.

Our dinner started wonderful with great arenchini and classic pizza which was fresh and delicious. Unfortunately I got the Bucatini Carbonara which was not the Carbonara I was craving. It was full of cream which isn't an ingredient that supposed to be included in an authentic Carbonara dish, it made it very heavy and lost Its purpose. Service was good. And my partner is saying that the butter Sage pasta was good.

Went here for the first time and ordered the Crispy Brussels and the Chicken Sando. Incredible. Their homemade bread is delicious. Love this place!

It’s was our last evening in California and we’re wanting Italian food. It was a Friday night and hadn’t made any reservations. I explained to the woman who answered the phone our situation and was very sweet and assured me not to worry about a thing. We got seated almost immediately. Everyone was super sweet and then we met Tamara J, she was so nice & when she shared how the pasta was made fresh along with that amazing bread rosemary bread daily well I could not wait. OMG 👌🏼Delicious!!! The pasta the sauce, both dinners were outstanding I wish I could order some right now. I highly recommend and will definitely eat there again, 10 ⭐️ is what I give the whole restaurant
