Overall, quite disappointed. Two out of three pasta dishes were cold when they were served. We were charged $10 for two scoops of plain vanilla ice cream. Lovely décor and ambiance, just not the level of quality for food or value for services rendered.

Came here on a Thursday night with some friends for dinner. Overall, the service was really good. The food was a bit underwhelming, kind of disappointing to be honest. I personally love caprese salads, but this one wasn’t that great. I felt like it was missing something.

Overall, our waiter did his best to accommodate us by removing the pasta from our bill which we appreciate. Just wasn't the same level of quality of the food we ordered from the previous time we dined here. The Pettinata felt watery in taste and texture and left my partner a sense of little to no flavour in the dish. It was returned back to the kitchen for Carbonara instead which was better. The Margherita pizza I received was a bit cold as it seems it was sitting for awhile. The pizza was quite doughy in chewiness and mozzarella didn't taste well when it was tabled a bit cold. Not the same pizza I remembered from before when ordering it previously dining here. I believe this is most likely an one off and that this isn't a representation of the quality of dishes at Buono. Just wished it wasn't the night to be an one off as we were both craving for Buono and loved our experience before.

I can't believe you people think this s*** is good. Worst calamari and pizza I've ever had in my life. Some of these positive reviews have me wondering if any of you have ever had good pizza. Lasagna and drinks were fine.
The food and ambiance was amazing!!!! The pasta was so perfectly cooked and it was so delicious- I can't remember the last time i've finished a meal in a restaurant but this time I inhaled the entire plate. It was that good. And the decor and ambiance to this place is amazing. It's not too loud so it's a perfect date place also! Will definitely be coming back!!

I was pretty disappointed with the pesto pasta it was super bland and portions are on the smaller side. My friend had the pasta with the truffle (I can’t recall the name) and it tasted better. The server and ambience were nice, but would not return.

The food was delicious, I ordered a Carbonara with rigatoni pasta and it was very good, and cooked exactly the way I like it. The environment was very quiet which is nice when you’re trying to catch up with someone. The restaurant was also very clean and the service was great. Our waiter was very knowledgeable when it came to the menu. I am definitely coming back here!

I saw a couple reviews saying the portions were small so I ordered two pasta dishes plus sides (meatballs, veggies) on uber eats. When they arrived the boxes DID look really small, but felt heavy. When my kid transferred his to a bowl it was much bigger then it first appeared. We both struggled to finish all the food. Food was tasty, the meatballs didn’t come with any bread so we had a lot of leftover sauce. You can order the bread separate, i just didn’t realize. The food was tasty, though not exceptional. I got cacio e pepa and the kid had pomodoro. I am not convinced it was worth the price, as it cost about $70 including tax and fees. I would go in and have a meal next time, as it feels like good food to share with a group of friends.

A wonderful experience of classic traditional taste that can only be accomplished by hand making your pasta and through the selection of quality ingredients. My compliments to the chef and staff for two extremely memorable meals.

First experience here was excellent- appetizers and pasta were both amazing. Appreciated that they have gluten free pasta option for my gf sensitivity. Patio is great and staff is very friendly. Will be going back for sure.
Don’t read into the overall rating. This place is 5/5, patio is nice, server was attentive and we got wine, appetizers and pasta without any complaints. So tasty and great atmosphere.

Buono was a great find! I had dinner with my family there recently, and everything was delicious! The Pettinata (truffle pasta) was delightful, and the Bolognese was on point in terms of texture and flavor. The Salsiccia e Zucchine (pasta with crumbled sausage and thinly sliced fried zucchini) was incredible. The zucchini was bursting with flavor and complemented the sausage well. All pastas were cooked to perfection. Service was top notch, as Rodrigo explained everything in detail. He was friendly and attentive and was kind enough to bring us a sample of an artisan gelato(Aperol gelato), which was unbelievable good! The outdoor patio was cute and comfortable to dine in. I would recommend you to give it a try!

This is the fourth time I've been here over the last couple of years and food is always exceptional. There were four of us on the back patio and all of us agreed our dishes were delicious. We also ordered fried calamari which was done perfectly not greasy and not rubbery, the tiramisu was amazing and the cocktails were lovely. I can't remember our servers name but he was very friendly and knowledgeable about all the menu items. I would definitely go again

Service a tad bit slow I get labour shortages ! Only complaint really was desert ordered tiramisu and gelato .. gelato was straight up French vanilla ice cream! Cannot try and fool customers so I was upset I paid 10 for two scoops of French vanilla .tiramisu however was delicious.

Authentic, cozy and good price point. I really liked this location on Roncy and I already came back a couple of times. Never disappointed:)
