4 reviews for Buca Di Beppo
This has to be my favorite Italian restaurant chain yet. They always walk you though the kitchen first so you can take the tour. It is very easy to get lost in their many rooms that all look the same, kids love it because there are always groups of them running around and screaming. It is best to go with a large group to get the full experience, since everything is family style in large platters.
The food comes with a cold partially sliced loaf of terrible soda bread, and possible some olive oil on the side, depending on your server. Never expect to review good service here or you will be very disappointed. Plus, do not come here if you are in a rush, even for a pick-up order, because everything takes forever.
I read the menu three times and looked all over the table for a drink menu and did not find one. I love Italian Cream Soda and just happened to ask about it one day, so the waitress named off the flavors. I always order it now in raspberry, it is really good, but I don't know the price because they always forget to charge me for it with their high level of organization at this place.
The dishes come in large and small sizes, small feeding 2-3 people. Expect to pay $13.99-27.99 for a small, depending on if you order pasta or seafood. They now have a lunch menu with on person servings, so you can get some pasta dishes for $8.99-11.99. I, of course, have to order the largest thing I can find. My favorite is always the Quatro Forno, which is 4 large ravioli, 2 stuffed shells, and 2 manicotti. Any of their dishes with their spicy Italian sausage are excellent too. Don't get the $7.99 basket of garlic bread, what a rip off.
All of their sauces are really good, and all of their pastas are cooked al dente. The food is gooooood, otherwise I would not keep braving this place for a new adventure every time. Go here to get salty/cheesy food, delicious tomato sauce, and so full you want to vomit.
My wife and I used to love going to eat at Buca when we lived in California, but this place is not that good. Food is burnned on the outside and cold on the inside. This place got my money once, never again. I have had better than to eat here again, if there was another location which was decent I would try that place out.
The eggplant was terrible, the ravioli was cold in the middle, and the service was trying to be entertaining and that came off as sarcastic. This place should thrive by sheer lack of competition, but it struggles to get ahead due to incompetant staff, someone needs to get in here and pull a Chef Ramsey and put a boot in someone's backside.
Bucket a puko is more like it
My friend and I came here for dinner a few weeks back and I have to say it has all you would expect to find at a Buca establishment. The food was top notch, we split a fettuchine alfredo loaded with chicken and it was INCREDIBLE. The chicken was cooked to perfection, and the Alfredo sauce has to be the best sauce I have ever had in my life. It was extremely creamy and thick so I got full incredibly fast. The waitress was very kind and was fast to order drinks, take our order, and quick to refill our drinks when they ran low. Overall, a great experience and the first of many to come at this establishment.
