    This place was great! Jon T was a great server, and he worked hard to explain the portion sizes. Each plate is for 3-4 people! Crazy good food, great people, this place has it all!

    We sat in the table in the kitchen. And it was phenomenal everybody who came by was helpful and kind. Had something funny to say, or smiled and was friendly. Our server DeAndre was probably one of the best servers. I've had going to any restaurant. This was our first visit here. And we will definitely be coming back multiple times with multiple people, including our kids. Everything was well priced and fresh and tasted delicious. And it was a really enjoyable experience. Side shout outs to nicole for being kind and checking on us and the host who I believe is Alfredo. Who was hilarious and helpful. If his name is wrong then his name is Vin. Balsamic Vin as he told us lol Thank you guys!!

    Celebrated a family member’s birthday here and had a great dinner. They were very accommodating, we were a big party. Lots of great food, huge portions, great service. Our server Shelby was attentive, quick and handled our large party very well. Will definitely be back.

    Well first i have to say i still don't like fact that most of everything on the menu went up 10 to 11 more than they were a few years ago but that being said the food is still great and my server was Zeb and gave everything we asked for also Mike i think was one of the managers that felt like our food wasn't prepared good enough the first time so the remade it but for the extra long wait we were served those fabulous meatballs they have on the house ...Gotta love that and much appreciated...Chicken parmesan is still how i remembered..

    Holy moly this better at least taste good. Super small “feeds 3” portions for very high cost. Ordered Caesar salad, it’s only enough for 1 person, just lettuce and dressing, $23. Ordered chicken Marsala for 3, 3 tiny cutlets smothered in mushroom sauce, $38. Garlic bread and broccoli rounded out the meal for whopping $124! Next time I’ll cook at home. * update: the broccoli and Marsala were tasty. So I upgraded to 2 star.

    Tiramisu, Double Dark Chocolate Cake, Homemade Cheesecake & Italian Crème Cake! Someone thought he ordered a dessert sampler and forgot this is Buca, it's family style! 😋 As you can see on the pictures, the chicken limone and the prosciutto stuffed chicken are gone because they're so yummy! We also almost finished the Margherita pizza.. The walls are covered with different celebrities so we did a little game called "Who is that?" It was a fun family night out!

    This place is what nightmares are made of. Not even exaggerating. The place is filthy. Seats are torn and dirty. I went for my birthday, because I'd been years ago and it was good. BIG MISTAKE. The waitress was horrible. I attempted to order a drink but they were out of just about everything so I settled for water. Every table around. E attempted to order some sort of drink and again.. they were out. The kicker.. the so called waitress brought me a rainbow colored slice of cake for my birthday and it looked as though it had been sitting in the freezer for months. If not longer. I didn't even touch it. My husband gave it a try and later on told me that it tasted like a freezer full of onions. Disgusting. This place should be shut down and the waitress that "waited" on us should work in a factory where she doesn't have to deal directly with customers. Total waist of money a.d she definitely didn't deserve a tip, but I gave it to her anyway.

    Great experience, service was friendly and fast. Food was really good they just were out of my favorite, the stuffed chicken. Lasagna was a little overcooked. Dessert was amazing!

    Maybe it’s better when you actually eat there but bland pasta drenched in sauce and weird little pieces of something yellow could not finish the food because I couldn’t figure out what the hell was in it. Restaurant smells like sewer water as soon as you walk in.

    Chris was an Outstanding waiter! Very sociable, got our orders perfectly, and even helped us clean up our gifts/party after we ate. Great guy! Food was so delicious! We had a wonderful 40th Roaring 20’s party!

    I was in the area and wanted to try something new. I was pretty close to this place. I did look at the lowest reviews before eating here and thought, let's try it out anyway... I honestly can't figure out what those people are talking about. I tried 4 different types of pasta and a salad. I literally can't complain about anything that was put in front of me! It was absolutely delicious. And my server displayed great and professional service!

    We visited Buca di Beppo for an early Thanksgiving dinner and had a wonderful time. The restaurant offered Thanksgiving feast that was ~$34 per person, which included pasta, salad, sliced white meat turkey, roasted garlic mashed potato, green beans, home style gravy, spicy Italian sausage stuffing, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. Everything was good but I wanted to highlight the spicy Italian sausage stuffing, which was probably one of the best that I have ever had.

    First time coming here and loved the food and our waiter. Keep note if you haven't been here that a small spaghetti dish feeds 3 people! You can share these dishes because they are so large! The large plate size feeds 5 people. Food was quick and delicious and loved the cozy atmosphere as well.

    I brought my mom and friend here for a late mother's day dinner. The food is fantastic! Quality and authenticity of the food was a winner with us all. Now I unknowingly requested the wine room area and appearance wise it was fine but just be warned. The AC doesn't work on that area well and we were WARM. Even when they turned it on it really didn't do much, the rest of the place was nice and cool however! The plates are expensive, but worth it. Bring friends! Honestly I'd say 3 people minimum to help split the tab. The dishes easily serve 3/4 people and that's the basic/small serving. The chicken parmesan was perfect and delicious, we had ours on a bed of Alfredo noodles. Our server was very nice and helpful though he did make a small mistake or two, but nothing we were going to fuss over. The red sangria is great! And also very affordable compared to the other drink options, I highly recommend trying it. Sweet but not too sweet and not at all dry 👌 I hope to come back again with a group of 4-6 so we can try some more dishes 😃

    Customer service was great, out waiter was awesome! I saw the prices which ranged from a starting point of around 20$ and above. They did state that the dishes were a big enough portion for two or more, which is understandable for that price. The only thing is that it is pricey if a singular person were to eat there alone. I mean, at least they will have left overs. We ordered a penne vodka pasta, chicken alfredo, a sausage pizza, stuffed pasta shells, and a ceaser salad. The penne pasta was good, but I felt like it was missing something, and I couldn’t put my finger on what. The chicken alfredo was really good! No doubt on that. The stuffed pasta shells were okay, they tasted a bit bland for me in my opinion. The ceaser salad was great! It was a good portion and really delicious. As per the pizza, it was a good taste as well. The atmosphere is pretty calm but it was a nice location. I would just suggest coming here for either a big group of people or if you’re willing to take left overs. It’s a cute place overall !

    If you're on the hunt for a substantial dining experience, Buca do Beppo Restaurant is undoubtedly worth a visit. This eatery impresses with its generous food portions, making it an ideal choice for sharing a meal among friends or family. A single small portion here can easily satisfy 2-3 people, and the best part is that the pricing remains consistent with this generous serving. The restaurant's ambience adds to the charm of the dining experience, exuding a cool and retro vibe that transports diners to a bygone era. It's a delightful touch that enhances the overall enjoyment of the visit. When it comes to taste, Buca has a lot to offer, especially for those who relish classic Italian flavors and cheese-infused dishes. For those less inclined towards cheese or Italian cuisine. The restaurant's signature dish, the meatballs, is a highlight for many patrons. However, as someone who doesn't consume beef, the options were limited to mostly vegetarian and chicken dishes. While these alternatives didn't quite hit the mark of being extraordinary, they were still enjoyable. In conclusion, Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant is a place that leaves a lasting impression with its copious portions, inviting ambience, and traditional Italian flavors. If you're a fan of hearty Italian cuisine and appreciate a nostalgic setting, this restaurant should undoubtedly find its way onto your list of places to try. Just be mindful of your preferences if you're not keen on cheese or looking for meatless alternatives. Bon appétit! 🍝🍷

    Authentic Italian experience! Each dish served is in family portions!! So... so don't get scared with the prices on the menu... As one small dish can serve 3 to 4 people 😀. Eggplant Parmigiana was excellent 👌

    Stopped in for dinner and took a friend who has never been there. It’s a neat place. I’m not sure why they got rid of some of the classic decor that they had. Like the statue of David that was by the bar area. The food and salad tasted good. Take a tour around the different areas if you’ve never been there before.

    Went in for dinner and was very happy with the service and food recommendations made by Jay Mendoza, my waiter. Loved it!! Would definitely recommend!!

    Visiting the restaurant about a week or two before Thanksgiving was an awesome experience. Great service. Warm cozy environment. It was strange to see how far the waiters had to walk with drinks from the kitchen to the back tables. This is a mix rating. 5 stars for visit but 3 stars for our Thanksgiving order. There were options online to leave notes but the cheese was not placed on the side of the salad as requested. We got a call about 15 minutes before pickup stating that no children pizza available as the ovens were all filled with turkey. Disappointed but glad they called. Other issue was when my husband went for pickup, he was not given the two apple juices that came with the kids meal we ordered. Great tasting food. We do plan to visit again but will not be ordering online.

    This place is always special to me! Biggest meat balls I’ve ever seen!The service is amazing from the time you enter the door, to the walk through the kitchen to your seat, it is always exciting and the many pictures, and statues that adorn the walls keeps your eyes wandering! The food is served family style to keep with traditional Italian service and the portions are large. The flavors are exactly as you’d expect. This establishment is family friendly and can accommodate large groups but also offers and private chefs table for a more engaging experience. Happy travels A!

    We like the food here except the portion is ridiculous! See the photo, and the iphone for size comparison. That little calamari costs us $23+tax. A total rip off!
