Good for a chain restaurant
I enjoy Buca di Beppo. It's my favorite chain restaurant to go for Italian food, especially if I have a large group joining me. My husband and I go on our own and get the smaller portions of chicken parm and we absolutely love their fried mozzarella. It is nice to go to a mom and pop Italian restaurant if you want the intimate atmosphere but I like coming here with a fun group. The service has been adequate for such a large and busy restaurant.

Buca di whatta?
Food was average, and service was fair. The prices were high. I felt they used too much spices. There was a wait so I guess this place is busy. It may have been a off night for the cook.

Poor Service
I always try to give Bucca Di Beppo a chance in service or food. But they always miss the hit. Their food isnt that great and isnt backed up by the best service either. If u get the Pope Room they take longer to give u food.

My mama's is better
It's not that the food is bad, or that the service is bad; it's just that it is overrated. There is always a kid screaming in the background. The place is always crowded.Home style? Whose home?

very dissappointed
Where to start.My family and I came to celebrate my birthday at buca di peppos for dinner. After reading the reviews, I was very eager to try this " cozy " Italian restaurant. What a disappointment. The service was absolutely horrible. Our server probably said 5 words to us the whole night. Our server kept forgetting to bring our beverage order to us (2 sodas) and finally managed to bring them about 10 minutes after our appetizers arrived. Once the main entrees arrived our server immediately dropped the bill off which definitely left the impression she wasn't there to give us further service. As for the food, it was just okay ..large portions but not very special in taste. Hopefully my experience was a fluke but I won't be coming back.

Huuge Portions, Good Food!
This is a great place to go with your family or a large group of friends because the portions here are huge. Even though you get a portion meant for 2 people, you can fill up an entire family. The Italian food here is okay. I love the garlic bread and the bruschetta. The pastas are okay, but I've tried better places for pasta. The salmon pesto is delicious, but kind of pricy.

You will definately be full!
This is a family style restaurant where you share dishes. Food is prepared more to the taste buds of many (in an effort not to put in flavors the masses might not like it's not as flavorful). The value is great and service too. Fun night! Great for a hungry crowd.

Family Style
If you are with a great group of friends, this is a perfect restaurant to go. The dishes are served family style so it's fun to pass along all of the plates and try many dishes all at once.
