Yelp.com Review - by Miwako H.

4.0 of 5 stars. A bunch of us were here for dinner during GenCon. Please note, if you are here during a convention, you MUST make a reservation. This restaurant is too popular to just walk in and grab a table....

2.0 of 5 stars. I am giving two stars for our last experience at Buca. Our food was cold when it came out, but so was everyones that day. We had to wait in the kitchen for a while and realized it is freezing in...

Yelp.com Review - by Chad B.

5.0 of 5 stars. Absolutely one of my favorite Italian restaurants ever. If you aren't into garlic, do not come here. Yes, the food comes in huge portions. Be prepared that one entree and a side is enough for 2...

Yelp.com Review - by Sarah A.

3.0 of 5 stars. Buca is a fun place to go if you have a large group. They don't joke about the "family size" stuff. Anything you order will literally be a *ton* of food. I remember coming here with a high school...

Mediocre food (at best)

We went here for a birthday celebration. With the exception of the salad, the food was mediocre at best. The atmosphere is noisy and the service was below expectations.

Disappointing service....

I've been to Buca 3 times now, 2 of which I took out due to the worst customer service in town. The hostess does not give a slightlest effort to smile at the guest. Plus, there is always a frowny guy standing...

Go elsewhere

First out was the salad, which was of good size, it should be for $10.00, however i felt cheated out of the items that are traditonally served in an antipasto salad because it was mostly lettuce. On the salad...

Good Food

We ate here on a Friday night around 6pm with a party of 5 - We were seated right away and served quickly. The food is plentiful to share, but is ala carte so everything must be ordered separately (e.g....

Yelp.com Review - by Jared B.

4.0 of 5 stars. Yes I know, Buca's is chain Italian food. Still, it's done with such gusto that I can't help but be appreciative. The softball sized meatballs on top of spaghetti marinara are delicious, and the...

there are better places

It is better to go with a group or a large group, due to the family style portions. The meatballs are huge and a conversation starter, but are very bland. Overall if you are looking for good italian food your...

We make a point to go to Buca everytime we visit my brother in Indy. It's not really good for two, but you can always take it home. The Food is Great, I love the Garlic Cheese Bread. If you have room for...

A must try for all in Indianapolis

I had not thought to find such a cozy and old-world atmosphere in the center of a major city, and do not be fooled by the exterior. From the charming first generation italian staff to the home-made lemoncello,...

Just becuase they give you "lots" of food, it doesn't mean it's good!

Food Portions

If you've never been to Bucca, be forewarned that it is not a good idea to go for a party of two. You will pay a bit more for an entree than you might have expected because you are getting portions made for...

A must just for the fun atmosphere...

Everthing served family style, so I only recommend when you have a group of 6 or more. If you have 10 or more, you gotta sit at the "Pope's Table" which has a rotating table with a bust of the Pope in the...

not for vegetarians

As a vegetarian, I usually have to order my own dish since my husband or friends want meat. This is not possible at Buca di Beppo

Although many people would disagree with me, Buca di Beppo is certainly not one of the better Italian restaurants in Indy. The restaurant is geared toward large groups and servings are enormous. The pasta is...
