    I don’t understand the hype of this place, food is alright and overpriced. I ordered a pizza and it was not filling at all and the calamari is overpriced and it is a standard serving. The food had no taste! Waiter never checked up on us. Left still hungry.

    Fantastic food and service. It was very busy bring Valentine’s Day but they accommodated us and Sam was a great server. Prices were up there but also a ton of food served all family style. Would visit again.

    We came to Buca di Beppo to celebrate my aunt’s birthday and it was such a great experience from start to finish. Jessie was our server and she made the night feel extra special. She welcomed us right away, checked in just enough without interrupting, and really took the time to make sure our birthday girl felt celebrated. Her timing and energy were perfect , friendly, thoughtful, and on top of everything even with a busy dining room. The food came out fresh and hot, and the portions were huge , definitely made for sharing. We loved the rigatoni and linguini the most, and we all left full and happy. The atmosphere was fun and lively, which is exactly what you want on a family celebration night. Thank you Jessie for helping make my aunt’s birthday dinner such a memorable night. We’ll be back soon!

    Stopped by for happy hour and would not recommend. The guy who sat us made a point to tell us he wasn’t on the clock, which was weird, but we’re casual and didn’t think much of it. Then I watched someone walk in off the street and go straight to the kitchen and bag up a takeout order without washing his hands. The Brussels sprouts we ordered were drenched in oil and they forgot the balsamic glaze. When I asked for it our server brought us balsamic vinegar and seemed at a loss when I then specifically asked for glaze (it’s an ingredient listed on the menu). We ordered the garlic Parmesan fries that came out as just plain French fries. We let our server know and we declined to have them fixed because at this point we were feeling sick from the amount of oil on our other two dishes. We asked for the check and she had still charged us for the fries which were incorrect and we didn’t touch. Her manager was nearby the whole time and we heard him acknowledge that they were wrong when she went to get them taken off. I am industry and have never left a bad review but I’m currently fighting back the food that is trying to come back up. Our server was at least pleasant but that’s the only positive thing I have to say. I have dined at other Buca di Beppos before and wasn’t expecting fine Italian food but to call what we ate food is a stretch.
