    An Italian cantina of excellent quality that manages something truly special: preserving tradition while offering a welcoming, stylish, and vibrant atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, you are embraced by a wonderful ambiance, with Italian music playing softly in the background, making the whole experience feel like a trip to Italy. The food is prepared with care, authenticity, and top-quality ingredients, honoring classic recipes while delivering outstanding flavor and presentation. Every detail — from the service to the décor — reflects a genuine passion for Italian cuisine. A perfect place for a romantic dinner or for gathering family and friends around great food and great memories. I will definitely be back.

    Christina was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we sat down at Buca di Beppo, she made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken care of. She was friendly, attentive, and knew the menu inside and out. Every recommendation she made was spot-on, and our food came out perfectly timed and exactly as ordered. What really stood out was her energy and professionalism. She checked in at just the right moments, kept everything running smoothly, and somehow managed to make the experience feel relaxed and fun without ever feeling rushed or distracted. You can tell she truly cares about her guests and takes pride in what she does. Service like this turns a good meal into a great memory. If you’re dining here, do yourself a favor and ask for Christina. She’s a big reason we’ll be coming back.

    My family of four had our vacation Christmas Eve dinner here and it didn't disapoint. My wife and I ordered cocktails to start the meal and my Old Fashioned was excellent - not too strong and just one large ice cube the way I like it. My wife also enjoyed her Holiday themed margarita. Our two children ordered Sprite and a Rootbeer - the rootbeer was served in the bottle with a glass accompanying it. Our appetizer was a large and perfectly cooked breaded calamari. It was served hot and crispy with a slice of lemon and dipping sauce. My family loved it and it tasted far better than the calamari we had later in the week at a steakhouse. We ordered spaghetti with meat sauce, chicken carbonara and a side of broccoli as our main course. We also ordered a small cheese pizza for our very picky youngest child. All way too much food for only 4 people. My kids loved both pasta dishes and so did I. My wife doesn't like red sauce so she stuck to the carbonara which was one of her favorites when there was still a Buca in Wisconsin. The broccoli was OK. For dessert we ordered the brownie sundae for a family of four. The brownie was warm and fudgy and the ice cream was quality. The server gave us the whip cream on the side because my kids are crazy and don't like it. The service that night was excellent despite the traffic - we can in shortly after the dinner rush. Our server was the bartender who appeared to be handling the entire bar room mainly by herself while also mixing and serving drinks. She was polite, engaging and patient with our family. She did an excellent job. My mother's family is very Italian and my childhood Christmas Eves were spent partying with my mom's side of the family. It has been several years since my mom and older members of the family have passed away and with them, the Chirstmas Eve parties, which included way too much food. I appreciated sharing good Italian style food in a great abundance on Xmas Eve with my kids as my parents did with me. THX

    We came here to celebrate my stepson’s birthday and, unfortunately, the service really ruined the experience. We were seated quickly, but after that our server, Christina, was almost completely absent. We were never offered bread and had to ask for it, our water glasses stayed empty with no refills, and we were never asked if we wanted another drink or more wine. When ordering we were told that the first dish was not available and after selecting another option that dish was not available either. If certain dishes are no longer available on the menu we should have been notified by the hostess or server before even sitting down or have been marked off the menu. The food we finally ordered was (stuffed manicotti) and it was decent, we asked to add chicken to the manicotti and all they did was add a few pieces of chicken. The lack of attention was frustrating. When we asked about dessert, the server Christina wouldn’t bring a menu and instead rushed through a long list verbally, which made it impossible to choose. Eventually, we gave up on dessert altogether. Dirty plates were left on the table, and we had to wave her down just to ask for the check, which also took forever to arrive. Never even saw a manager around. We felt especially bad since this was a birthday celebration and couldn’t even have Happy Birthday sang to him. We ended up going next door to ALMA ARGENTINA Restaurant, where the service, cappuccino, and dessert were excellent/exceptional and highly recommend them. We’ve had better experiences here before, but this visit was very disappointing due to the service by Christina and the overall experience.

    I went for luch with a co-worker last Tuesday, they had a 10 minute wait, which wasn't bad, however, it took over 30 minutes for our food to be ready after we sat down. There was a large party of around 10 ppl and only one waiter, so thag wasn't a good first experience, we were starving when the food arrived, it was definitely not our writer's fault, the poor guy was sweating, if I remember correctly he's name was Julio, so kudos to him for handling that by himself. The food was really good, which made up for the long wait time and the decor was really nice, I would 100% skip the cannolis.
