"Osteria La Buca in Hollywood is one of the most reliable Italian spots in the neighborhood, perfect for midweek client lunches, casual date nights, and rowdy private dinner parties upstairs in the pasta room. The Sherman Oaks location is basically a carbon copy of that (minus the pasta room, sadly), meaning if you’re cruising up Ventura craving a solid bowl of carbonara, a hearty chopped salad, or quick glass of wine at lunch hour, this bright, spacious trattoria is a great option to keep in mind.

"Though La Buca means “hole in the wall,” Osteria La Buca is anything but. The second location opened in October 2020 with the same menu that made the original Melrose spot a favorite with rigatoni bolognese and bucatini carbonara. At both locations, groups are always welcome and easily accommodated with a reservation." - Mona Holmes, Eater Staff
"Osteria la Buca offers fresh pasta made in-house daily, vibrant pizzas, meat and seafood dishes, and vegetable-forward sharing plates. The drinks menu includes a Negroni on tap and an extensive wine list." - Eater Staff

"This Sherman Oaks restaurant really is more than just pasta, thanks to dishes like meatball subs, grain bowls, salads, and arancini — oh, and the pizza and pasta is pretty good, too. —Farley Elliott" - Eater Staff
