My date and I had the "Buca for Two" special with a $5 off coupon. This is the way to go if there are only two in your party.
The tomato salad was good and had cucumbers, tomatoes, and onions with garlic cracker bread.
Next we had the Penne Romano and the Rigatoni with Meat Sauce. The pasta was cooked al dente and the sauces did not drown the pasta. The mushrooms and peas in the Penne Romano were fresh and tasted great. The meat sauce on the rigatoni had a very authentic taste to it. (I lived in Italy for two years).
Next was the Shrimp Parmigiana. Very nice. Again, the portion was perfect for two of us.
The best part, all of this was only $27 total including tax and tip. (We both drank water instead of sodas). Not bad for the amount of food we were offered.
Pros: authentic tasting foo, good portions, atmosphere
Cons: high prices
