Yelp.com Review - by Albert H.

2.0 of 5 stars. $10 coupon and FREE spaghetti coupon brought me back here recently, and things haven't changed. This is some of the most ordinary Italian fare that I've ever had and they give you huge portions that...

4.0 of 5 stars. OK, so love the flat pizza, exactly like the kind at the now defunct Tuchettis that was in Town and Country (you remember that place?). Service is always great, very enthusiastic 18 year old...

One of my favorites

This restaurant has to have the happiest servers in town. No wonder, they are constantly being complimented on the quality of the food. Meals are served family style which means that they come on a big platter...

Weird place

The chicken I had was prepared really strange. I looked like "road kill" covered with pizza sauce. Strange Place.

Real Family Italian Restaurant

We love going to Buca di Beppo for family style Italian food. We love walking through the kitchen and the photos on the walls and the food!

Cute but doesn't cut it

The family style serving at Buca de Beppo is fun, but I find their food dry and boring. Lots of people like this, but it seems like a lot of money for something I can cook at home.

Buca Fun

A fun place to go, whatever town you are in and a great place to take visitors to if they have never been to one. The food is pretty decent, not my most favorite Italian food, Carraba's would be my choice for...

Family Style

We love the family-style dining. It's easy to sample many dishes. I especially loved a seafood pasta dish-it was amazing! Too expensive to eat there regularly, but I don enjoy it every time we go.

This place is great to go for a cheap night. One small order is enough for 2 hungry people (and I eat a lot so that's saying something!). We like to go here after a movie because it's quick and cheap. Not the...
