My husband’s birthday and we had family in town. It was so hot in the restaurant that my family had sweat dripping down their faces and backs. The food was great, but sort of hard to enjoy with the air conditioner broken
Thank you for choosing Buca di Beppo to celebrate your special occasion! We appreciate you sharing your experience with us and hope you visit us again soon.
This was unacceptable. The air conditioner was broken and the temperature in there was unbearable. To expect that people could enjoy a dining experience in there is wrong. Even my two young children were miserable!
We are sorry to hear you had an unsatisfactory experience and value your feedback. We will be sure to share this experience with our staff in an effort to improve future guest experiences.
Decent Italian restaurant, very cool atmosphere. Objectively designed for groups of 3-4 or more. Not ideal for couples because of how the food is served.
We appreciate you taking the time to provide your feedback. We hope to serve you again soon.
We had never eaten at Downtown location and our service was mediocre. We felt rushed when ordering and the staff that brought out our food tried to deliver to wrong table.
Thank you for dining with us. We appreciate your feedback as they highlight areas in need of improvement. We hope to welcome you back soon.
Great Friendly service! Food was delicious! Great place to celebrate my granddaughter’s 21st bday!
Thank you for dining out with us! We appreciate you sharing your experience and look forward to serving you again.
The waitress spilled one of our waters on the table when we first showed up and stated that she would be right back to clean it up literally every time she approached the table and never did. Half our table was covered with water and ice literally the entire time. We didn’t get any water refills. The waitress never came back after our food was delivered except to give the check and there was a hair in one of our dishes, so we didn’t have an opportunity to express the issue. Worst dining experience I have had in years.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review as our customer’s feedback is very important to us. We apologize your experience was not up to our usual standards. We will undoubtedly contact management and make them aware of the situation to ensure it does not reoccur in the future.
The air conditioning was broke on a 80° day. The food quality is going down. The price was expensive for what we got. I’m not bringing my family back here. It was an awful experience.

We went to celebrate Mother’s Day and it was just perfect! Food was fantastic and our server was wonderful. It’s such a neat atmosphere at the downtown location.
Calamari had zero flavor to it and was over cooked.

Being from a smaller city, we had some sticker shock at the Indianapolis prices. Not affordable for a family of four. Food was great. Server was very good.
Thank you for dining out with us! We appreciate you sharing your experience and look forward to serving you again.
Horrible service and food wasn’t any better. Nothing to compare to location in Houston.
We're sorry to hear about your dining experience on your recent visit. Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us. We'll be sure to share your review and feedback with our local management team to address your concerns and improve our guest experience.
Don’t understand this family dining concept. $24 for caprese? Horrible. It’s completely overpriced for the amount you receive Then to have chicken wings (single serving) as the ONLY item on the menu that serves one. And nothing else. Not even a salad. Why? Why are the chicken windfall $6/serving yet you can’t get a salad as a single serving. The entire process doesn’t make clear sense. Not my thing

Thank you for dining out with us! We appreciate you sharing your experience and look forward to serving you again.
The mashed potatoes were sour... I don’t know how they mess that up. Then they ran out of bread?? How are you an established Italian restaurant and run out of bread?? Poor service, subpar food, just overall not a great time. Sad.
In town for volleyball tournament
Able to seat a decent size group. Salad abd food was great!
The food was ok, but overpriced for what you got. The service was horrible. After the food was served, she never came back to check on us and we had to hunt her down to be able to get the bill so we could pay and leave. Also, we ordered 2 glasses of wine and she suggested we get a bottle. But, neglected to mention it was a $50 bottle...too much for a bottle of chianti that was nothing special. We were surprised when we got the bill.
It was cold .
Waitress not very helpful or friendly, very average care was taken
Appetizer- bruschetta- worst I’ve had
Main entree very good, however. But not a great amount of food for the cost
I always enjoy my meal at Buca. While the food is really good, I think it is slightly too expensive. That won't stop me going there, however.
Nothing like we thought. Very disappointed!! And will not be back.
Our last two visits have been below satisfaction. The place is filthy, service rude and out of everything we wanted at 4:00 on a Sunday.
We ordered the chicken carbonara and it was very dry, tasteless and the spaghetti was over cooked, mushy. We also had the roasted brussel sprouts, flavorless, it was like they forgot to put any seasoning on them.
As we do each year, we took the family to Buca’s downtown and they did not disappoint. Always a festive atmosphere even on a quiet weekday night as we are trying to avoid crowds. Great food and great service!
Thanks for that glowing review. We are happy to hear you had a blast with our famiglia. Come back to see us again soon!
Are waitress was fun and amazing she did great

It's a reasonably good experience for the price. Quality is good, not great, but fine if you set your expectations accordingly.

Sean was fantastic, he took great care of us! The food is always great.
Thank you for the great feedback about Sean's service! We're glad you enjoyed your visit and hope to serve you again soon.
Our server was great.... antipasto salad GREAT as always. The chicken stuffed prosciutto was ok and the Brussels sprouts & prosciutto was awesome, the only real complaint was having to view the menu on our phone that wouldn't be a problem except we never get phone service there, but the server was very polite and got us a regular paper menu 🤗 thank you Ethan

I traveled with my family to Indianapolis for the weekend. We had a party of 5 for dinner. When we arrived, we had to enter through the kitchen, which didn’t seem sanitary, especially during Covid. We were then stuffed into a small booth with 5 people, instead of being seated at a round table with more room. Our waitress was less than helpful, and rushed us through the entire dining process. She would be gone for long periods of time, leaving us with no service, and when she would finally check on us, she would walk away from our table before we finished ordering and asking for assistance...we had to yell after her to come back each time she would walk away. The food was mediocre, especially for the price. The lettuce in our salad was wilted, and the pizza dough was undercooked. We ordered pasta as well, and the sauce was watery. Not worth the money or the headache of chasing down your server.
We are sorry to hear you had such an unsatisfactory experience and want to get in touch.
It was very nice. Great service by Christy. Food was delicious.
Thank you for sharing such complimentary feedback about our team. We look forward to serving you again soon!
Food and service were outstanding
Thank you! We hope to see you at your nearest Buca di Beppo soon!
Food was very good. Due to Covid-19 and being a nice evening, we chose to sit outside. We were first seated behind a large banner stating they were open again, but we ask to be moved so we could see what was going on and people on the street, as opossed to being hidden behind a banner. We got cheesey garlic bread and spaghetti with meat sauce and meatballs. Meatballs were very good, sauce a little watery, but still good.
We are very happy to hear you enjoyed your visit and we hope to see you at your nearest Buca di Beppo soon!
Absolutely horrible!! Fazolis is better.
