What reviewers say about Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant
People say this Italian restaurant serves delicious and authentic dishes, including spaghetti and meatballs, chicken parmigiana, and cannolis. They highlight the generous portions, comfortable and relaxing atmosphere, and the fun, unique decor. They also like the friendly, attentive, and polite service.
“Blown away by the tour through the restaurant and the kitchen. The kitchen is immaculate and super clean. The rooms are theme based and look like a museum. Was working up an appetite for a fantastic Italian meal to give a full score. We ordered lunch portion, but the portion is too big and price too high. Rather have a small portion and reasonable price. The taste for lasagna and spaghetti meat sauce was mediocre. These dishes should be the staple Italian food, but was disappointed.”
“Absolutely fantastic experience at Buca di Beppo! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was lively and welcoming. Our waitress, Maxine, made our evening extra special—she was attentive, friendly, and her recommendations were spot on. The food was delicious and served family-style, perfect for sharing. Every dish arrived hot and fresh, and Maxine ensured our drinks were always filled and that we had everything we needed. If you’re seeking great Italian cuisine with top-notch service, ask for Maxine—you won’t be disappointed! Highly recommended!”
“Haven’t been at Buca in ages and decided to go for dinner. Unfortunately we were disappointed. Ordered pepperoni pizza and it looked like a personal pizza with 6 slices for $24 and it was burned on the bottom. The waitress seemed annoyed when I asked if we ordered the right pizza. She said they are all same size but from what I see in reviews it’s much bigger and more slices. Fettuccine Alfredo was cold and chicken Parmesan was burned as well. Appetizers were good. When asked for dessert menu we noticed on there that there is a salad pasta and main dish option for 4 people for $49 but our waitress never mentioned it and it wasn’t on the main menu. Our check was $145 including happy hour appetizers and dessert. Really wanted to like it because the concept is great. Will not be back .”
