For River District, Bufala is the perfect place in the neighbourhood where friends and families can gather for delicious food & drink every day of the week. We prepare fresh, scratch-made classic & contemporary pizzas in the Napolitana style - blistered to perfection in our 800 degree stone oven - along with a tasty selection of Italian-inspired small plates and desserts. And as great meals require great drinks, we also offer a delicious selection of cocktails, wines, craft beers, and espresso.

Underground parking is available and is free for up to 3 hours. The entrance is located on the west side of the building off of Sawmill Crescent. Street parking is also available.

We accept reservations online up to 6 guests. If you are looking to book a larger group, please contact us directly 604-423-9594 or riverdistrict@bufala.ca

Brunch is served Saturday and Sunday from 10am-2pm

    Friendly staff. Our server is great and is attentive to our needs. We had the brunch and my friends loved their food. I am vegan, though there’s not much choice in the menu but they gladly made me a vegan spaghetti and it was perfect! This is my second visit in this restaurant and it’s always a lovely experience each time. Definitely recommended.
