Depending on how much data is to be passed and at what speed.

A dual port memory (DPM) is a good interface.
Minimal hardware, if your design already has port decoding available
on the two busses.

Google for dual port memory, there is even VHDL code available out there.

Or a FIFO ( First In First Out) device.

FIFOs would be like a UART in that you would receive one byte/word at
a time. And the FIFO would help regulate the speed of transfers
between busses.

But, as has been mentioned. The software design will get a bit more
complicated with the DPM.
