The votes are in, and the winners have been selected for OnMilwaukee's Best Dining 2009. The results of this readers' poll, including an editors' pick, are available in this series of articles that run all October long during Dining Month on OnMilwaukee.com.
It makes sense that OnMilwaukee.com readers picked Buca as Milwaukee’s most family-friendly restaurant. The chain Italian eatery features colorful decor, a lively atmosphere and "family style" meals that include kid favorites like pizza and spaghetti.
Because of the festive environment, dining with noisy kids is never a problem at Buca.
For more than a decade, Buca -- a chain with 87 restaurants in the United States -- has dished up Southern Italian cuisine to Milwaukee. Highlights of the space include themed rooms where the walls are packed with photos and pictures, large drinks and portions, and a table for larger parties in the kitchen.
