Buca believes in family style portions, so bring your family. Unless you and your significant other like to eat mountains of food and/or have mountains of leftovers.
The atmosphere of Buca is a chain restaurant attempting to be a little, local Italian joint. The decor includes Frank Sinatra paraphenalia, a lot of old time photos and luckily only in Jenkintown, a replica of the pope's head. Why anyone would want to sit at a table with the pope staring at them is beyond me, but my catholic guilt kicked in just seeing it.
Anyway, the food is good, though not outstanding. it is a fun place to go with a group of people and sample a lot of different things.
