If I taste flour in my spaghetti im gonna barf. Stop it. And stop buying your bread and put on big fat hairy garlic on it. Peel it for Pete sake, and don't hide the burn marks of your pizza with more raw flour. Stop it! Stop all of it! Cook better! Stop making that pasta taste like tomato glue and oil.

Buca used to be good. I’ve heard it has gone bad through the years. We went in to give it a chance and see if it was as bad as they said. It is and much worst.
Portions were still a lot but the prices were also way too much. The chicken was so dry it looked like it’s been in the freezer for awhile. I tried drowning it in its own pesto sauce but the pesto sauce was so thin and had no taste. The lasagna was huge chuck of dried out ricotta cheese. Savemart marinara sauce tasted way better.
Save your money. Go somewhere else. McDonald’s chicken nuggets would have been a better choice.

We usually dine in at Buca during BF"s birthday month, as we get some cool birthday perks as part of Buca's rewards program. We were around the Anaheim area and decided to stop by Garden Grove's Buca for a change (we usually go to Pasadena). Parking was definitely more convenient here with the dedicated lot shared by Buca and hotels.
Our wait was 30 minutes for a Sunday night dinner. Once seated, we ordered several things that may very well be our Buca staples now:
* Margherita pizza ($24)
* Chicken parmigiana ($38)
* Spaghetti with meatballs ($38) comes with two meatballs
* Colossal brownie sundae ($18.99)
Our server brought out bread with olive oil and vinegar for the table. We enjoyed that while waiting for our first dish to arrive -- the pizza. It was our first time ordering the pizza and I'm so glad we did because their pizza is so good! It was thin crust, very similar to the New York style that we like!
The spaghetti with meatballs comes with two hefty meatballs and we supplemented this (not that it needed it) by adding the chicken parmigiana that we sliced up. We also added some slices of the chicken to the pizza too and it was a delicious add-on. The three items are more than enough for two people and we had plenty to take home for several at-home meals.
We ended the meal with the colossal brownie sundae, which comes with 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream, 2 scoops of chocolate ice cream, a lot of brownie pieces, hot fudge sauce, some whipped cream, and sprinkles. We were able to finish it, but this is also fun to eat in a group. Definitely do not skip on this dessert!
Because our parking did not have a time limit, we took a walk to Target, which was a couple blocks away, to work off our food coma before heading home. Successful birthday meal!
