Reviews for Osteria La Buca - Sherman Oaks in Sherman Oaks, CA

I had a fantastic time whilst dinning there. Found the canteen nice and cozy, and the food is truly good. The pasta are fresh... made on the day, and it taste absolutely delicious. The staffs were nice and accommodating, also friendly! Definitely recommendyou to visit! Read more

The extra star is only for the host, because they were nice. Until 9/15/22 I would give this place 5 star. But from 9/16/22 the... menu changed and the food is less portion. I used to get the octopus, it used to come with 2 decent pieces of octopus andpotatoes in the side for $18 plus tax and it was worth it. Well now is only one tiny piece of octopus leg and no potatoes forthe same price. To add another leg of octopus is another $18. And to add potatoes is extra $9. In short, the cost of the mealwas $18, now is $45 after the menu changed . Not cool. This restaurant got a little busy so now they reduced the portion andhigher price, I do not appreciate that. Soon people will find out and your business will reduce, because it's not fair youcharge more and give less! I do not recommend. And I will not come back. Read more

Super delicious, very alive and social after 5-6 pm, gets super busy in the evening hours. The food is great, the service is... excellent. The atmosphere is warm and very casual. They have their own farm, all veggies and fruits are organic. You candefinitely feel the best quality of the food Read more

Very good. We had the classic pizza with prosciutto, and the brussel sprouts. Both were well made and delicious. For cocktails... we had the ranchero and I forgot the name of the other. Both were fantastic. They also have a very good, light lager on draft.Excellent service, spacious and nice space. We’ll be back. Highly recommended. Read more

The host was very nice as soon as we arrived. They showed us to our table and the server was there to help right away. The... appetizers were amazing and the main course was even better! The head chef made a stop at our table to check on us and describedthe dishes we were eating. He really treated us like we were family. Food was a 5/5, service was a 5/5… if you add thattogether, I’d give Osteria La Buca a 10/10! Read more

Nice Italian restaurant. Good food and service. Nice ambient. Nothing is excellent here but for the valley it's not bad. It was... packed and the acoustics are bad there. Food came fast except one dish that they forgot and came 15 min late but they didn'tcharge for it. Skip the meat ravioli. The best dish is the chicken parm. Good coffee and deserts. Read more

A true gem of the valley! Food was all amazingly delicious, we started Arancini served with fabulous homemade marinara sauce and... also homemade ricotta spread with perfect toasted crostinis & caramelized, we also had their citrus salad, one that isincredibly fresh and perfect blended with its own vinaigrette! For dinner we had a classic Calzone with hand made dough andTagliatelle Pasta with perfect amount of spiciness in it. My girlfriend also had a Burrata with Peas, pea puree, mint, lemonthyme appetizer, and since she is vegan we skipped the burrata cheese, which even tho so was still an amazingly flavorful dish.We took home their homemade tiramisu and had with tea, a very tasteful and fresh version the classic Italian dessert. Service ison point, full of young and welcoming staff. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful; very modern, with high qualityfurniture like by hand made finished, with an outstanding design, very well lighted and comfortable booth benches. We totallywill be back and will recommend to friends and everyone that loves and appreciate the unique farm to table restaurant like theone that Osteria La Buca is! Read more

LOVED this place! Just what we need in Sherman Oaks! Everything was fresh and delicious. Even the lettuce tasted so good! We... had the gem salad (highly recommend), rigatoni bolognese (the sauce!!), margarita pizza, and the ricotta. The ricotta was outof this world delicious. Can’t rave enough and the outside patio was perfect for kids. Read more
