This food is good quality Italian food! Everything we ate was delicious. Not sure about the $14 Aperol Spritz, but everything else was decently priced. We'll be coming back soon!
We tried Buona Terra on a whim and it didn't disappoint! Incredible food combined with wonderful service. The menu had something for everyone (we had vegetarians and individuals with allergies in our party of 8). Everyone cleared their plates! Can't wait to return!
One of our favorite restaurants for special occasions, celebrations with friends and family, or just a spur of the moment quiet dinner. Love the green goddess pizza, bread and yummy garlic spread, drinks, and desserts.
Buona Terra was a perfect spot for a spontaneous weeknight dinner with my daughter! Their soup of the day was Butternut Squash, the best one I've had. The pizzas are baked in a 700 degree oven, done to perfection, as was the sauteed chicken alla griglia. An exquisite meal in an unassuming location. Highly recommended!
This restaurant is a complete GEM!!! Everything on the menu is outstanding!! The staff is unbelievable and super friendly!! My favorite spot in the whole city!!!
First time at this gem of a restaurant. Great service and excellent food. Nice selection of wine. Our new Sunday family dinner spot.
Great place! Good drink pour, best linguine with red clam sauce in town. Too many places don't know how to make the right sauce for this dish.
Really great Italian food. Prices are reasonable and food is fresh and delicious. I especially enjoyed their panacota dessert. Twas soooo good! 😊👍

Great atmosphere and the food was amazing. I would recommend making reservations
The food was decent and the service was fine — but the night ended on a sour note when our server confronted us over the 10% tip we left.
Tipping is discretionary and there is no obligation to leave a certain amount.
If staff take issue with their wages, that’s something for them to raise with the management of the restaurant — not with customers. We left feeling awkward and unwelcome, which completely ruined what had been a pleasant evening.

Another fantastic dinner at Buona Terra with my family to celebrate my birthday. We have been celebrating all of our birthdays at BT since we discovered the original restaurant almost 20 years ago. Why do we choose to celebrate our birthdays there every year? It goes way beyond the delicious food, superb service and wonderful ambience. The owners, Eilene and Chepe treat us not merely as good customers but like family. So does their wait staff including Juan who we have known since we first came. They took the time to get to know us years ago and now we share stories about our respective families. And when my wife and I bring our children and grandkids there to celebrate a birthday, they feel the same warmth as we do. It is a happy place for all of us. We all have our favorite entrees, appetizers and desserts, but we look forward to trying new items and specials. We've never been disappointed! If you are reading this review and looking to try a new restaurant, give Buona Terra a try. You won't regret it.
Nice locals restaurant. Food was good, noice level high as restaurant fills up. Service was taxed. Enjoyed our dinner.
Last week I hosted a private party for 20 people. We had drinks, dinner, dessert and it was all delicious! The service was outstanding and Eileen went out of her way to ensure the event was beautifully planned. It was everything I could have asked for. Thank you!

Went with friends, and we had the best meal! The bread! #iykyk The butternut squash ravioli was divine! And the cocktail called The Independent is not to be missed!
