Worst

Large portions of mediocre food served up in a "TGI Friday's gone Italian" atmosphere. Good service, decent prices.

More expensive than your average Italian. 3/5/2012

The food is good, but not THAT good...doesn't quite justify the pricing, but I think the experience of dining in is the big redeeming factor here. Great service, lively or romantic atmosphere, depending on where you sit, time you go. Get a carafe of wine and take your time enjoying the large portions. Pros: null Cons: null more

Over-hyped Italian! Great artwork! Avoid Friday nights 2/11/2007

Food was OK, house wine was good. Wait staff was nice at first but lost patience and was rude at the end - must have been a long nite!! Pros: Wall art, Wine Cons: Rude Wait-staff, Bland food more

A fun place to eat 10/16/2006

This is not going to be the best Italian food that you have ever eaten, but if you can relax, and enjoy a crowd you will have plenty of food and fun. The restaurant serves a lot of food and it is somewhat cafeteria food in nature. I enjoy the people watching here, and the servers are pretty enjoyable. They usually seat you promptly and the serving sizes are generous. Pros: Great energy and good fun Cons: the food could be a little better more

Not bad for a chain. 4/8/2004

The food is above average, in that it comes pretty close to the Italian food I enjoyed at my Mom's and Grandmother's houses. I love the pizza. It's close to the real thing served in Italy. Not recommended for couples. Go with a bigger group; the bigger the group, the less expensive it is. more

i don't believe it 4/8/2004

the salad was tasteless, the pasta reminded me of a grade school lunch program and the veal marsala- the meat itself was not only tough and grissly, but the "marsala" sauce was reminiscent of grape jelly. in fact, it was so awful that i went back to another location and tried again- even worse. a rating of 0.1 wouild be more than charitable- could be the worst restaurant ever. more

Food Factory 4/24/2003

Not so great 3/18/2003

I may not be Italian; however, I truly enjoyed the food, and excellent service I have received from Buca. In fact, I recommended it to several friends and they called to thank me for the wonderful time they had as well. Pros: Festive Atmosphere more

Puh-lease! 11/21/2002

In my opinion this is the worst of the so called "Italian" restaurants. Giant servings of low quality food is not a good thing. Whats-a-matta with these people?! more

bucas is great but could be better if they would just stop over cooking there pasta.its to soft.other wise everything else is great.cool clutterey decor,friendly servers,slightly high priced but the veal marsala is wonderful,its my personal favorite .everything is served family style.a small pasta dish is 1 whole pound of pasta.you get very large portions.2 people could never eat one of the small portioned dishes they offer.youll always have a doggie bag to take home.i go there when i want to get my fill of garlic,and bread dipped in olive oil. Pros: large portions, good parking, credit cards Cons: soft pasta, seating is to crammed, slightly high priced more

Fun and Fancy Free 8/13/2002

Buca di Beppo's is great! From the minute you walk in the door the atmosphere is so peppy! It is so thoughtfully designed and decorated that you just want to go exploring. The staff and management were very friendly and guide you through the entire night from the time you sit down till you walk out the door smiling from ear to ear. I give Buca di Beppo a perfect score, they thought of everything! Pros: helpful staff, great food, great design Cons: far from home more

excellent 8/1/2002

My father's name is Giuseppe, he's from Sicily and he's never heard of some guy running a restaurant out of his basement. But he loved this place. It's old Italy at its best. more

Perfect, Great value, Nothing to hide 7/23/2002

I went to the Buca in Utica and sat at the kitchen table. Yes an actual table in the kitchen. We were a party of four and had an absolute blast. I is obvious that these people take a lot of pride in what theydo not to mention proud. The time and effort they took to entertain and show us all the food they were creating was amazing. The Chef was absolutley the greatest, he gave us a great Buca experience. Being European trained, Chef explained to us why Buca is different then other restaurants and he proved to us why they nothing to hide. BUCA DI BEPPO is HIGHLY RECCOMENDED! more

Beppo means hole in Italian 6/20/2002

Which is exactly what this place was. The only thing we ate was the salad and bread. Veal Marsala was way too sweet. Pizza was gross. Pasta was way overdone. Stay away. Hit Andiamo's or even Macaroni Grill. more
