Diner Reviews

"My husband is Italian and a good cook too. So we rarely dine in Italian restaurants. But there family style concept grabbed my attention when I read the OT reviews on this place while visiting the area. The "cellar" ambiance made for a fun environment. And our waitress, Hannah, was attentive and new her menu well. She made great recommendations. There were only 2 of us and we were not famished, so we only ordered 2 items--a salad and the stuffed chicken entree, and both were great. We will be back with a larger group and a bigger appetite the next time we visit the area."

"We had a great lunch. This time we ate at a table in the kitchen there's only 1table. It was allite noise but my 11yr old wanted to so we did and we all enjoyed dinner. They have such a great variety foe everyone to enjoy."

"We had a large family group and everyone was 100% happy with this location. The food served family style was a complete hit. All remarked how great everything tasted and the service left nothing to be desired. I recommend this restaurant highly for groups both large and small."

"Enjoyed everything except the summer dish with the white spaghetti with veggies. It was very dry. Everything else was excellent"

"The food arrived promptly, but the server seemed to be so interested in chatting with the family at an adjacent table that we had to wait for service at times, even when when we tried to get her attention (she was two tables away and the restaurant was not crowded). It was a hot day and it would have been nice to have our water glasses refilled. We had to ask for napkins four times before we finally got them. We have dined here previously, and it's a nice but a little overpriced. The food is good and has always been served hot and fresh, in my experience. They often run coupons that bring the prices down to reasonable levels. Service tends to be a bit spotty at this location, but better at the Station Square location."

"When we were walking up to the building with the neon sign, I thought of some basic chain like Olive Garden. The Ala Carte menu I have not experienced since college. I was happy to see it still being practiced. Our waitress was great she kept tabs on us despite having other tables in some of the other sections to tend to. Overall having an Italian background I enjoyed the restaurant and will recommend this place in the future."

"We are long time customers of Buca. We went to dinner with friends last week, and the food was excellent as usual. It's nice to go to Buca anytime and have a great experience."

"We had a 70th (don't let her know I mentioned her age) birthday party for my mother. Twelve of us at Bucca di Beppo in Robinson, PA. The service from Jacqueline was incredible. She took requests for items on the fly -- meaning she was not finished with a sentence when our unruly mob was already barking for drinks, apps, etc. All with a smile "sure, I'll get you that too." The food was yummy, garlicy, delicious. We had a great time. Mom hugged me and cried a 'thank you' to me. Wonderful."

"I was excited to have my bachelorete dinner at Bucca Di Beppo. We had a reservation and there were 8 in our party. They sat us at a large booth so half of us couldn't get out without everyone else getting up. The table they sat us at was also directly behind the waitress' plate station, but rather than trying to be courteous to dinner guests having a conversation, they seemed to bang and rattle the dishes as loud as they could. Then when we were done eating, but still enjoying conversation they asked us to move to another table or leave because they were getting a party of 15 and needed our table. That made me angey, but I didn't let it ruin my day; however, I will never eat at or recommend Buck Di Beppo again."

"I brought my family here for Mother's Day dinner, and I became hooked. My brother and mom have been to Buca's in Station Square before, but I had never been to one up until that night. I loved the atmosphere, the decor, how even though the restaurant was decent sized, the individual rooms made it seem smaller and more personable. my family is Italian, so we don't mind sharing food with one another, but for groups of people who aren't on the sharing level, or for someone's very first date, this might not be a good location to go, unless the guests are big eaters. what left overs we had, they didn't last very long!"

"Our experience was very good from the bar thru dessert. We were waiting for the rest of our party in the bar and my husband made a comment about having chips or pretzels with our drinks and I think it was the MOD came back with chips.(nice touch) The food was good and a lot of it the service was good.We had 2 boys with us and the server was as attentive to the them as she was to the adults. All in all great experience. Mothers day is usually a zoo, Don"t believe it But make sure you make reservatipns."

"Awesome food but our waitress seemed to be rushing us. She asked if we needed to go containers half way through the meal and she brought our check before we ordered our dessert. Again food was awesome!!!"

"Our dinner was perfect as always! The table was ready for our party of 11 before we arrived. Pleasure dining here. Thank you."

"Having used the online reservation option, our party of three was seated promptly upon arrival. Our server came to the table and welcomed us almost immediately. Beverage orders were taken and warm bread (with oil and balsamic vinegar for dipping) was delivered. We ordered our favorite salad, Apple Gargonzola, and for our entrée, Fettucine Supreme. Everything was delicious. We ordered the smaller portions, but had more than enough for the three of us, with plenty of pasta to take home. Throughout the meal, our server kept the bread coming and our glasses filled. When exiting, we were thanked for coming and asked to please come back again. We definitely will! This restaurant is a winner!"

"The food was awful! We ordered a caprese appetizer which had no dressing on it. I ordered the veal saltimbocca which was as tough as leather. I will never go back."

"Such a great place! Good food, friendly staff and huge portions just like a family meal should be."
Dined on 5/2/2014
"I took my husband there for my favourites of the Antipasto Salad, Garlic Bread and Chicken Saltimbocca. Our server, Lisa, was just perfect - excellent balance of welcoming, informative, efficient, and friendly, nurturing service without being too much."

"This place is really fun. However, as someone who really appreciates good Italian food, I would rate the food very average. "

"Our second visit to the Buca di Beppo, was unaware that the lunch menu is weekdays only but were allowed to order the off lunch menu as it wasn't busy yet. Food and service were very good, the décor is uniquely tacky. We'll be back again soon..."

"I am Italian and have been to Italy and the food there was not as expensive as this place wow thought we would need to remortgage the house to eat dinner. How can a group of 4 adults eat for under 150 bucks not here..we left went to outback had a very large meal appetizer's , alcoholic drinks large porterhouse steaks with salad /bread included in meal for under a 100..and it was down the street from this restaurant so there were in the same area.. Really wanted to try this place but never will unless I win the lottery...A salad for 4 people $20.. please!!"

"We had about 23 people with a reservation On a Sunday. The waitress had help but did not offer house bread or could keep up with the refills or ask about anticipating them. We constantly had to track her down for extra plates,napkins, and refills. I think she was also extremely busy in another room With other tables and just could not keep up with our party. All of our appetizers were cold, even my soup. The pasta of course was amazing but only half of us got to start eating because we had no plates to share! We will return because I know how amazing your food and service can be but I will not reccomend having a large group there to anyone in the future."

"Absolutely disappointing! Over an hour to get served. Claims to have large food portions? A plate for 2, must mean a plate large enough for 2 - 7 year olds. Way over-priced! Charge $8 for a serving of garlic bread? I've seen bigger salad croutons than the little portions of bread they brought out with some garlic salt sprinkled on them. There sauce is bland! This is a weak American imitation of a true Italian Restaurant!"

"We had a group of 14 for lunch on a Sunday. We reserved the "Pope room". The staff was friendly, our food was good and they kept the drinks full. I especially enjoyed the two ladies who worked our table. Their names were Lisa and Kristin and they were awesome!"

"Had a fabulous meal with tons of leftovers. Be prepared to eat or be ready to take home leftovers. We over estimated how much food we needed, so had many containers to take home. The food is served family style. We should have ordered small sized portions for the four adults and 3 kids that were there. We had a party of 7 and had plenty of room in our extra long booth. It felt very cozy and private. We were not rushed which was a huge plus since we were dining with people we only see once or twice a year."

"Went with a group of 12 for birthday celebration. I was disappointed in the food. Penne pasta was not hot and had very little sauce. Chicken parm and eggplant parm were okay but came lukewarm. Appetizers, wine, sangria, and tip came to almost $300. Did not get enough food for that amount of money. Doubt if I will return."

"Felt like you were in Italy. The service was like family. Would Definitely Come Back."

"Was my wife's birthday dinner......it got ruined by an incompetent waitress. in our party of 12 everyone was finished eating before we even got our food. All we got were excuses and stupid jokes. My parents got news after 20 minutes that they didn't have what they ordered and our waitress didn't even know. Very very poor service......."

"Were out of Cabernet. How can this happen at a restaurant on a Friday night?"

"We really enjoy the food at Buca, but on Saturday night we required a table for special occasion, did my booking well before to ensure they would be able to do so. We did ask for the kitchen, however, I was not expecting to have this since it is usually requested I am sure. But, we were put at this table, stuffed, literally, in the corner, with a huge party of people, maybe 12 people next to us. It was not special for sure. Even the waitress couldn't get to us to take the order and give us the food. I understand it being busy, but really, this was not an option for someone that requested a nice table or even anyone that was just there eating. I scored ambience low and service low for this reason. The waitress was good."

"The moment you walk through the doors, the smell gets you! Make me drool and order more than we could even begin to eat. The food was served fast and was hot. I was searching for a romantic type of place to take my girlfriend for a date. I was told that your food was the Italian food place to be so i chose you. Not a fan of the cheap looking table clothes though. Made me feel like I was in a lower class restaurant."
Dined on 2/27/2014
"Almost everything about the evening was perfect. The only complaint I have was that the host seemed to disregard the fact that I had made a reservation because it was such a slow night, but I had requested a specific table in the reservation and the surprise effect I was hoping for was kind of ruined by my having to ask to be moved to the table I had requested. Our server told us that the host was new so I chalked it up to a "rookie mistake". Everything else about the night went smoothly. The food was better than I remembered, the service was prompt, the staff were very accommodating, and they even gave us an anniversary card that they all signed at the end of the meal. Well done. ^_^"

"We went on Sunday on the way to the airport for lunch. Had never been before. Our server was excellent. The portions are large since it is family style. The pizza is very thin crust which we prefer and generous on the toppings. We ordered 3 small items (caprese salad, sausage & peppers, and a small Supreme pizza). Enough for lunch for 2 plus leftovers for dinner and then again lunch the next day for me. Definitely a place that caters to groups. We were pleasantly surprised at how good our food was. We were not sure what to expect, but were quite pleased with the lunch (and leftovers) and always appreciate excellent service!"

"A late dinner on Friday with my wife, daughter and her boyfriend. Food was good and flavorful. Recommend the chicken procutto. Service was bit questionable. At times, we did not see our server for an extended period. Fortunately there were other servers in the immediate area that help us refill our sodas and bread. Fortunately, it all worked out in the end and we enjoyed the experience."
Dined on 2/15/2014
"This restaurant's theme is family style dining meaning massive portions that are meant to be shared. But if there are only 2 dining, you are still forced to buy the over-priced oversized meals. So you both have to agree on one item or agree to have leftovers for the next 3 days. I ordered the mixed green salad. Apparently, mixed greens means white iceberg lettuce and slightly green iceberg lettuce. The salad stated kalamata olives. There where a total of three olives in a small salad that was big enough to feed four people. My spaghetti with meat sauce was about a pound of pasta with 2 tablespoons of sauce. Offensive."
