Editorial Review for Buca di Beppo – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
From the Italian language tapes in the bathroom to the three-liter bottles of Chianti on every table, the vibe here is exaggerated Italian-American kitsch. Boisterous, sprawling dining rooms are modeled after supper clubs of the '40s and '50s--servers holler, kitchen doors swing, and Sinatra rules the stereo. High-carb, red-sauced southern Italian cooking dominates the menu. And everything is big: Platters are piled impossibly high with baseball-sized meatballs balancing on mountains of spaghetti.

To all who may be thinking of planning a great night out for the family or friends. I must warn you about this awful place. I'm not saying that all Buca di beppo's are bad, because I have been to other that were fabulous and along with the great meal the restauants are run by amazing managers. Although for some reason when I planned a dinner event at this location the service was ridiculously rude and the rudiest employee of them all was the general manager Eddy.BIG SHOCK. After the horrific time of being treated like unvalued guest the food was less then perfect, coming out cold and unappealing. My recommendation to those who are thinking of going to this restaurant pick another place. and for anyone working at Buca reading this I will never bring my business there again. Im rating this restaurant a 0 for their poor service and horrible managment, thanks for the awful time Eddy.

Pros: none that i can think of......

Cons: you name it I'll agree with it.

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Buca is always a great place to go, but best for large parties. The portions are huge and one entree can feed 6 people. The service at Buca is fast and friendly. The ambience at Buca is festive and fun. I eat at Buca all the time, but I recently went brought a large group there for part of a bachelorette party weekend, they were helpful in selecting the menu and had the whole room acknowledge the bride-to-be in our party.

Pros: Service, Portions, Ambience

Family-style platters and hefty bottles of wine take this Italian dining experience over the top.  See the full editorial review.
