Authenticity at Its Best by Kika Davis 2 on 6/1/2010 via Citysearch
Il Buco's rustic Italian authenticity will impress anyone from the Jersey Shore, yes, even them. Their menu is peppered with home favorites, such as pumpkin-filled ravioli, thin-crusted Neapolitan pizzas, and osso buco. Don't forget their…

Favorite Restaurant in LA by Jon Fox on 4/22/2010 via Citysearch
This is hands down my favorite, local restaurant in LA. The food is spectacular and shows tremendous inspiration from the chefs. The menu is creative but the specials often have you miss out on them because they are so great as well. The…

Perfect Thin Crisp Pizza by Teresa P on 8/14/2009 via Insider Pages
I had the pleasure of working across the street from Il Buco and the thin crust pizza is the best EVER! Salads and pasta are great as well. Not the cheapest place but worth every penny for perfect pizza. You'll understand when you taste it!

The best Italian food hands down!!!!!!!! by nickyoung on 10/5/2008 via Citysearch
I've even had the luxury of living in Rome, Italy when I was growing up and going to the best restaurants with my folks..and this place is the best Italian food i've ever had. The owner is always extremely personable and gracious. I love…

Going downhill by leonalip on 9/3/2007 via Citysearch
At one time, I used to enjoy going to this place, but I won't be going back again. It's an Italian restaurant but nobody who works there is Italian. I get a sense the staff lack proper training, like maybe the owner is too busy with his…

Good Italian doesn't make up for nightmarish wait and negligent service. by babystrange on 6/15/2007 via Citysearch
I went to Il Buco for the first time with my parents recently. We were seated promptly and placed our orders within a few minutes, so initially I would have ranked the service at average or above. After enjoying some of their seasoned…

Great food, great service by num23bulls on 2/23/2007 via Citysearch
It's been a long time (more than a year) since I've eaten here, but it still sticks out in my mind as one of the better restaurants I've ever been to. Good food, good wine selection. The decor could use a little boost, but hey, I'll take a…

A small haven of romance and good Italian food. by Contributor on 12/1/2006 via Citysearch
The Scene
This intimate little trattoria charms with touches of Italian country--wood beam ceilings, black-and-white photos, and wooden racks draped with colorful strands of home-made pasta. Votive candles and soundtrack of…

Best Gnocchi Dish Ever!!!! by Elischa on 11/8/2006 via Citysearch
I went to this place with a friend of mine, and after the meal here.....I thought I was in love with him. I'm kidding...anyway..the food is so fresh, and authentic. The servers there are very well informed with the wine lists, and…

Great Italian Food by t2much on 10/9/2006 via Citysearch
I went there for lunch and was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the food. I had insalata verde, pappardelle, and apple pie with a glass of wine. I varied a little bit from the menu and they had no problem accomodating my…

Say Bye Bye to Il Buco by birdgirl on 8/22/2006 via Citysearch
Went on a Thursday night and service was terrible for a near empty restaurant. Of course, the two cute young things who came in after us were postively fawned over. Took forever to get menus, water, wine, bread, etc. I don't mind the…

Best Italian in LA by lovefood17 on 6/20/2006 via Citysearch
I love this restaurant. It's a bit expensive but the food is delicious! The salads and pastas are really good. The food is so good that I never have room for dessert at the end. Definitely go check it out...you won't be disappointed!

Yummy and priced right by katgoesbananas on 4/21/2006 via Citysearch
Had dinner there early before the theatre last weekend - the food was amazing and the service was friendly and efficient. I figured we'd be the only ones eating at 5:30 pm, but there were several other tables seated when we arrived. By…

Little place with the great food!! by elleater on 1/4/2006 via Citysearch
Little place but the food is amazingly delicious! the server friendly and the price is affordable/inexpensive. If you want o find a good food without fancy but yet is quite romantic. the risoto mushroom and the wine list are excellent!

Finally! A great Italian place in LA! by bette1stl on 11/17/2005 via Citysearch
Great Italian places here are hard to find. There's no Little Italy or North End about LA, so we usually opt to just order in chicken parmisan or something from one of the pizza counter places. Until we found Il Buco. It is just…

Nice cute little italian restaurant by steve h. on 8/7/2005 via Judy's Book

Delicious food by Ryan A on 7/22/2005 via Insider Pages
This is a really great restaurant. They offer great Italian food, I recommend panino al pollo. They also offer a large selection of wines. The restaurant is small but I early enjoy the atmosphere. The food prices are moderate. This…

My Favorite Restaurant by Devin M on 2/16/2005 via Insider Pages
I stumbled on this place almost on accident and it is the best Italian restaurant I know of. The prices are surprisingly reasonable (<$40 for 2) and the atmosphere is cozy and romantic. They even put your napkin in your lap for you! …

Great food, service and value! by svlin on 12/9/2003 via Citysearch
The food was so very tasty! The service was impeccable! The atmosphere is romantic, albeit a little claustrophobic! What more could you ask for? Make sure to make reservations as they fill up quickly!

O Sole Mio by cos23 on 3/5/2003 via Citysearch
Good food, friendly service, nice soundtrack. The pastas are fresh and really good. Soups are the only thing I would stay away from. Tables are on top of each other, but they do the best they can with the small space they have.
