Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant

We were looking for great pizza/Italian food and found it. We first called, spoke to Jasmine, she was very helpful and answered all of our questions. There was a slight wait so we headed to the bar to get some drinks. Stephan was amazing! Went above and beyond to help me find the perfect wine. Everything we ordered was delicious. Our server (I think Jessica) was also great. Portions are humongous, strongly recommend sharing. My favorite part was the decor, you feel as if you’ve been transported to a different place while Sinatra plays in the background. Truly a pleasant experience.

I’ve had the pleasure of dining at Buca di Beppo on two occasions, and each visit exceeded my expectations. The food was delicious, authentic, and served in portions that perfectly capture the family-style concept. During my first visit, our server Julio provided exceptional service—attentive, professional, and genuinely welcoming. On my second visit, which happened to be my birthday, Julia made the evening truly unforgettable with her warmth and thoughtful attention to detail. Both Julio and Julia embody the very best of hospitality, turning a great meal into a memorable experience. I highly recommend Buca di Beppo not only for its outstanding Italian food but also for its remarkable service.

Buca di Beppo in Celebration feels like stepping into Little Italy. The homemade marinara hits you at the door, the portions are huge, and everything’s served family-style. We had the meatballs, Chicken Limone, baked rigatoni, and their massive Rose Sangria. Check out their promotions and specials online!

Our server Stephen was fantastic! He was super friendly and outgoing made our whole night. For a chain the food was on point, delicious, well seasoned, and came out hot. If I could have given this review 10 stars I would have!

Food was shareable sizes Mostly spicy even tho we love spicy and we are big spicy eaters but i am talking here about loosing the item s original flavor into just plain spicy . Our drink came late after reminder , Atmosphere was cozy and impressive.

Buca di Beppo is awesome! The food is super tasty and the portions are huge—perfect for sharing with family or friends. The place has a fun vibe with cool decorations all over the walls. The staff is really friendly and makes you feel welcome. Favorites like spaghetti, meatballs, and garlic bread never disappoint. Great spot for birthdays, group dinners, or just when you're really hungry. Definitely recommend checking it out!

We use to love ordering from here because the quality and portions were worth the price, but after tonight's order taking almost 2 hours and these tiny portions never again. My 7 year old niece wasn't full after 1 piece of chicken, I dont know how a full grown adult is expected to fill up on a these portions sizes that are literally less than half of what we are use to. At over $200 after tip it's just not worth the price for what we recieved.

Service was decent. Not bad not great. The pizza was not good however. Floppy grease. $25 for a flatbread grease attack! The spaghetti and meatballs looked good tho. I’d get that instead next time.

We came here for a birthday celebration and we were not disappointed. You order family style servings and the dishes are placed in the center of the table with large serving spoons and shared. We didn't order dessert because we were all so full, but they came out with candles and sang happy birthday to our son which was very nice. We were seated right away and had a waitress come to our table to take our drink orders and to explain the menu to us. They brought bread to our table to enjoy before our meal came. If you want garlic bread that would be an order. Every thing is purchased as a family order even salad and dessert so that will not come as a part of your meal unless you order it. The ambience is very interesting. It had many pictures on the wall of people and of Italy. It feels like you are in a home. Very welcoming and cozy. Perfect for couples, friends or family. It wasn't loud and that made it easy for conversation. Parking was easy. They take reservations so that makes it convenient to guarantee our time especially being near Disney.

We came to Buca di Beppo for a friend's birthday last month as a group of 10 at the Pope's Table. Food was good, no complaints there, but the service took away from any of the positives of our experience. Our server, Tina, was clearly very irritated from the beginning when we told her we preferred separate checks. She huffed and puffed. Later on, she apologized for her irritation blaming it on " her hernia belt." Definitely a piece of information we did not need before we ate. She forgot drinks and did not come around to refill water. The room we were in did not seem busy, I am confused as to why she was assigned a table for parties if she can't handle large groups of people. After asking us several times before printing out the checks who had which item, the checks were delivered. Many of them had duplicate items so she had to fix them. She was very unhappy about that and initially told us she would be unable to fix anything once it's separated. I'm not even sure if she said goodbye to us in the end. It pains me to write this review because most of us at the table are also servers with many years in the industry. It just seems like the Pope Table is not a good fit for this specific server.

I took my mom and stepdad here (I live next door) and I was like why don't I come here more often?! The servers were amazing. It was a little dead which I didn't understand why, the ambiance is so cool I love the decor inside buck di beppo! The food is sooooo good, the only thing I recommend is go with more than just 1 other person. Everything is mostly family style. So everything is huge portions. But the food really is amazing. Sometimes with some dishes you have to actually ask for a side of pasta because some dishes don't come with it like the chicken picatta for instance I believe. Great spot though!

It's definitely a different take on family-style dining. The place is decorated in a very over the top sort of way with lots to look at. We enjoyed the overall ambiance. We ate an early dinner so it wasn't too busy at all. The way the menu works is each item you order serves 3 people so hopefully everyone in your group can agree what to share. It worked out for us as our party was 3 people. We thought the portions were on the smaller side but still enjoyed our salad, pizza and salmon. We polished off the meal and were not full so we had some dessert. It's probably a good, healthy portion size but not if you're hungry!! The server was friendly and helpful.

Go and lasagna for to go, took us 30 minutes to pick up and arrive home, still really hot, didn't even need to put on oven! Nice cost X benefit and if you sign up their website they usually send a CUPOM! For the price it's a good deal! Atmosphere it's good if you want to dine in

A fun spot to come if you're looking for an affordable meal for a large group. The interior is covered with colorful decor, lights, etc. Since I had a smaller party, I sat at a high top in the bar area. The bartenders were very attentive and friendly. We started with the bruschetta which came with thin sliced crispy garlic bread. The tomatoes tasted very fresh and overall the mix had great flavor. It also was delivered in a fun presentation. The chicken parm however fell flat. There was barely any sauce or cheese on top. While the cutlet was cooked nicely, the whole was just too dry. It's important to note that every dish is al la carte so you have to order pasta on the side of any entree which was not appealing to me but the servers are upfront about it when you sit down.

I like the ambiance and our server was super nice and explained the big portions. We got fettuccini Alfredo which wasn't anything crazy. I did feel like it was lacking flavor, if we were to eat here again it would be something different like the vodka sauce or carbonara. The fried mozzarella was okay, pretty good but I kinda liked the fresh bread more.

I have been ordering from bucas in celebration for four years now almost five for my daughter Angelina Anderson who was killed on Christmas eve morning by drunk driver forever 18#. Im sorry to say I received many complaints from the guest about the chicken marsala, linguine being undercooked and other foods cold. First I want to say the young lady bringing out the food was amazing. She was so apologetic and we told her "IT'S NOT HER, IT'S THE KITCHEN" whoever was the chef on July 19th 2025 shouldn't have been in charge of the kitchen. I explained to the young lady I don't eat red sauce and I was waiting on marsala and when I got it it was very sweet and dry. DISCUSTING IT WAS, I WAS SO DISAPPOINTED. So he made me one dish with six little pieces of chicken lemon and it was very good. The guest wanted to have some since the marsala was a BIG FAIL THIS YEAR. I order from here since 12.30.21 and never had problem until now. Last year we ordered to go plates and they packed up scraps from the tables and gave them to me. When I got home and saw that I was not happy let's say. So yes I complained, that was dirty and gross and I PAID for to go dishes. Then the 19th the chef messed up and gave us cold, undercooked food and dry sweet chicken marsala, I always order it that's all I eat beside the fettuccine. No red sauce for me. So then the person gets angry at my cousin for the complaint. Do you THINK WE WOULD JUST EAT THAT AND NOT COMPLAIN? I NEVER COMPLAIN BUT WHEN THINGS AREN'T RIGHT I ADDRESS THEM. SO THE NERVE TO SAY " YOU PEOPLE" MADE TWO COMPLAINTS, YES WE DID. AND IT WAS OUR RIGHT TO LET THEM KNOW IT WASNT GOOD. WE PAY GOOD MONEY AND ORDER 800 AND UP BETWEEN TO GO AND SIT DOWN AND DINE. WE GO FROM 24 PEOPLE TO 60, SO YES WE WANT GOOD FOOD WE PAY FOR. ANGELINA ANDERSON KILLED ON CHRISTMAS EVE MORNING BY DRUNK DRIVER FOREVER 18#. Thank you

I want to give this a better star rating, however, service is extremely slow. S....l...o....w. slow. The food was good but took a long time to get to our table. It was unacceptable at noon with only 3 other tables occupied that we were here 2 hours. We ordered two lunch portions of spaghetti and meatball and the chicken rigatoni. Won't be back.

Buca is a themed old school Italian American restaurant throwing you back to the 40's, 50's. The food and service was good. The only hiccup is the dining room had an strong funky smell that we never became nose blind to. More than likelyvthe culprit is the dirty carpet.

We had lasagne and meat ball sandwich for lunch. They were both hot and fresh. Taste was pretty good. Bread is fresh and hot, with olive oil and vinegar dip. Cappuccino was good. Ambiance is great, server was excellent. Not busy at 3 pm. Highly recommended.

Dinner was delicious! Kameron was a great sever, highly recommend the stuffed shells.

Wasn't Beppo one of the lesser Marx brothers? I digress... while it won't make you forget your gold-tooth granny Bucca di Beppo is pretty solid corporate Italian especially given Orlando's reputation as a chain graveyard. Spaghetti and some halfway decent meatballs is basic though, tasty fare. Everything else comes buried in sauce and defies an accurate ID. No matter, for a pitstop that won't leave you broke or hungry, Beppo gives Zeppo, Chico and Gummo a run for their money. Four solid stars.

We ordered meatballs and chicken carbonara, and it was yummy. Price is also really good considering that portions are huge. Our server Rachel was very pleasant and made experience even better!

Totally sucked, the price was ridiculous. I have had better food at Olive Garden, would not ever go there.

Delicious. Too bad there aren't any locations near me in the northeast anymore. So good! Went here again on our annual Disney trip.

Stopped in for a cocktail in the middle of the day. The bartender was friendly and very helpful with suggestions, and she made awesome drinks. We had eaten before we ended up here, but the food looked and smelled amazing, so we ended up ordering food. I got a ceaser salad, lasagna, and chocolate cake. My friend ordered ceaser salad and eggplant parm. It took us 2 days to finish all the food but it reheated well. The cake was amazing.

Haven't been to a Buca do Beppo in over 20 years! Service was still awesome and food was amazing! Jeremiah was our server and he was extremely attentive and helpful with our ordering and suggestions of entrees! Definitely a great dining experience!!!! Thank you Jeremiah!!!!!

Love this place ! Food is always good and service as well. Our server was Audrey and very kind and attentive. Will definitely be back again . It's a little loud at times but good vibes.

Ordered the garlic cheesy bread, spaghetti with meatballs, baked rigatoni with mild Italian sausage. If you have never been to Buca, be prepared for family size portions, like really huge. We will have enough food for at least another 2 meals for all three of us. Even the garlic bread with mozzarella cheese was a family portion and for once no one wanted to ask for more bread. The pasta (spaghetti and the rigatoni) was perfectly cooked and the gigantic meatballs were well seasoned and firm. We subbed mild (instead of spicy) sausage in the rigatoni and there was sufficient amount of meat. The ambiance was cozy and our waiter (Steve) was phenomenal. We will definitely return to this Buca. Completely forgot to take pics! Next visit! Buca, as with all restaurants, has gotten expensive. Even with a $20 discount coupon, we spent $86 for 2 entrees and an appetizer. If not for this and the wait to be seated (rooms in the restaurant were empty and the young lady seating us literally ran around the restaurant several times trying to accommodate the family ahead of us and never noticed I was on a cane with an orthopedic boot protecting my broken toe. When I brought it to her attention, she finally noticed, apologized, and immediately seated us) I would have given them 5 stars.

I wanted to love this place.... It is cute and I was craving a good spaghetti bolognese. The place was very quiet during the winter holidays which was a bit surprising. The food was quite average as was the service. We won't be coming back.

Bar service, figured I'd kill time at the bar while waiting for a nailjob to finish. Wednesday afternoon, empty looking dinning area and bar. Meghan was the hostess and my bartender. Pleasant conversation and decided on a to go order once my friend came back from the salon. eggplant parm came with a side fettuccine, added a cesar salad. Great flavored sauce, tough Eggplant skin, generous portion though. Bread would have been nice if included.

Tina was our server and was great with her energy, food suggestions and service. The food was great and the dining experience was awesome. Rockstar Volleyball team from South Bay, Ca will be back.

A couple years ago I actually visited the Florida mall location and then soon realized they had a new spot located next to maple street biscuit that was just a bit closer to my side of town! So my family and I decided to check out this location and like previously it was great! Parking was easy since they had multiple spots available within the area. This is actually located within a plaza with a couple other franchises such as Pei Wei and maple street biscuit. It's a little hidden, but really nice spot ! Service was quick and efficient. Biggest thing is we actually had a reservation so as soon as we checked in we were sat down immediately. Our waiter was very friendly and gave us tips and recommendations as far as portions sizes, meals, etc. This is a more family style restaurant with catering of 2-5 people depending on the sizes you order. We decided to order the Fettuccini Alfredo , Chicken Limone, Fried Mozzarella, and the Spaghetti and meatballs. My favorite definitely was the combination of the chicken Limone and Fettuccini. Great flavor with chicken cooked to the perfect temperature and tenderness to pair with the Alfredo and it was not too thick, but just right to go together. Overall prices were anywhere from the $24-40 range depending on what you order and how much. Very enjoyable night and love the design on the inside. Great ideas, people, and pictures. Plan to try more restaurants in this area, but glad to check this one off my list !

We went to the one in Orlando Florida. The food was awesome. Our family gathering as a result was great. They service was excellent. They were so attentive & caring to all our needs & we had kids. Italian themed had tons of charm. It was decorated so happy. What an awesome place that go. So family friendly. Treated all our 4 kids so special too. Surprised I had never heard of them.

Great Italian aviance and decor. Friendly prompt service. Had their lasagna. It did not wow...rather bland for our tastes.

Recommend reservations. Pizza is awesome. Feels like sitting in a scene from good fellows

I don't understand how this location in Celebration FL stays in business? Yes I do. They don't give you the quality of food or quantity for the price. Have you ever ordered a $40 pizza and it came out on a flat piece of masonite? Maybe 9" X 16" with very little toppings and very little cheese. This is a thin board pizza for $40! I had mentioned before you could go to any pizza buffet for under $10 and get a better pizza. Save your money and go somewhere other than Buca de Beppo!

Just left Buca di Beppo, full as usual and the service was outstanding. Diannah and Rachel were the best. Great recommendations on food and a friendly atmosphere. The food came out quick and hot. Never a disappointment going to Buca.

I've been to Buca di Beppo's in several states. And it's always a fun time. Large shareable portions, and a great atmosphere. Love the shareable salads and appetizers. Caesar salad was excellent, as was the calamari. Spaghetti and meatballs is a must. The meatballs are Giant and very tasty. We also had the salmon tonight, which was really nice, and one of our guests tried the pizza margarita with two thumbs up. Our server was very busy but very polite. Constantly talking to us to let us know what's going on with our courses. Absolutely textbook server skills. I'm sure you can find cheaper food but you really do get what you pay for. And with that being said the price was very reasonable. With gratuity about $45 per person without alcohol.

Do you want to be treated like family? Do you appreciate attentive service, where there is a 'can do, absolutely, will make this lunch a great experience for YOU' attitude? Then come to the bar area and ask for Steve. Non-stop smiling and moving from party to party ensuring everyone was having an impeccable time, getting exactly what they asked for, all round friendly service- making my lunch an absolute delight. Thank you Steve for brightening my day where I least expected it! 6282 W Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy

A "little" disappointed with our family style Caprese salad. Five thin slices of tomato with mozzarella. This was $28.00 and supposed to feed 3 people??? The chicken parm portions were better but the sauce was bland.

Our server was amazing!!! Her name was Tina! She explained the portion part very well and was perfect for our group of six! She has a great sense of humor as well! Very good waitress! Food was amazing too!

Excellent restaurant! My wife and I had our first date at a Buca di Beppo!! I love the large portions and the family style eating, and all of the photos. Great customer service.

Happy Hour 3-6 good deals on food and Drink!! Andrea is an amazing bartender!!! Happy hour menu is individual size not family size. Stop in and enjoy good food and Adult beverages!!

Food was great. Tasty, big portions, lots of options. Tina's service was awesome. Friendly and attentive. Clean restaurant

Portions are exceptional . 3 servings are enough for 4-5 people but the food was very blah in terms of flavor. this was the chicken alfredo. we will definitely try them again when in orlando but try a different dish.

Seriously what is going on with customer service these days? Am I missing something here maybe? Please let me know. . Came here with my boss on a Tuesday afternoon around 1230pm. There were maybe three other parties there, MAYBE. The host seats us and we wait for our server. Different servers pass and finally about five minutes later a waitress comes around and asks if we've been waited on. We answer no and then Carlos comes and says sorry I was helping with the kitchen. Okay, there is one table in your section . And a max of 5 people with food at the time. He was very nice but once our food was brought out (quickly which was awesome). He never came back to our table. It took us a really long time to get a check. I understand that when things are busy and people are short staffed that there will be waits. But you guys were not busy and you did not seem short staffed. This just spells laziness to me. The food was good! But won't be returning there due to the service

Best service hands down! Thank you Holly E for the great food and suggestions. Truly a pleasure! Can't wait for our next visit.

We had an excellent experience last night at the Buca di Beppo in celebration. Carlos, our waiter was outstanding. Food was above average and huge portions, so there will always be some to take home. Highly recommend this restaurant in this location!

Amazing service, great food, clean, we had reservations so no wait and didn't seem to be a long wait for walk ins. highly recommend!

The whole restaurant seemed happy with the meals. Our combination platter was the best. My martini was tiny. All the employees seemed to work well together and management was visible.

excellent food and great service. Thanks Mou, you are exceptional. While in Orlando we came twice to eat here. A little Italy.

I was So excited to bring my friends to Bucca because of so many Great memories about the Bucca in Ft. Lauderdale almost 20 years ago now. I remeber the great flavors of garlic, oregano, basil and parmesan. The basics of Itailian cusine. First let me say, the waitress was Very attentive and offered her input on the menu items. She was just amazing. The Staff that welcomed us made us feel as if we had known them for years. Sadly, the food was lackluster school cafeteria in flavor. Entries were flavorless and lacked the Itailan finesse I remembered so well. Bruchetta is a simple basil-based appetizer but none of us saw or tasted any basil. Oddly, it had diced feta....I would suggest omitting the cheese and adding fresh siced basil. Simply put, for the 160.00 bill and being embarrased for selecting this establishment, we could have done better at home.

Found Buca do Beppo via Groupon and needless to say the service by far outweighs the food taste and price. Everything here is served family style in small portions serving 2-3 or large serving 5-6. We ordered the spicy chicken rigatoni ($34), mozzarella garlic bread ($16), spicy shrimp ($26). The spicy shrimp was delicious and by far the star of the meal but I'd be hesitant to say it served 3 it's a small portion served in small sized cast iron that to me doesn't equate nearly to $26. The mozzarella garlic is one size only and it whole it comes with a lot it was Kind of overwhelming and basic. We asked for a side of marinade sauce which was definitely needed. Now on to the pasta, the spicy chicken rigatoni, the sauce was good but the chicken lacked seasoning and the noodles had a very strong bite as if they were undercooked. We informed the served but decided to not sent the meal back as we were there to try the restaurant and we had an early flight the next day. The place is well decorated and pretty much all walls are covered with art and photos but what you get food wise for the price and taste is lack luster and mediocre at best. Not sure if I went on an off day but the kitchen was not to my liking but nonetheless the Server was amazing. Based upon my experience I won't be back and would not recommend them.

Tina was amazing! Loved her personality and did a really good job at communicating how long the food will take and was soooo funny! The place was clean and they helped us get a place inside the restaurant after we changed our minds about the patio. 10/10 recommend.

We haven't been to a Buca in years and we decided to go there for my dad's birthday this year. Who doesn't love hot Italian food on a cold night? While we were seated quickly with our reservation, and greeted by our waitress in a timely manner, the service was very very slow. The food was all over-cooked. I was served dry chicken Parmesan with black edges and crispy cheese on top with a side of the worst spaghetti I've ever had. The spaghetti was gummy with dried up sauce on top of it. My husband was served the wrong dish and they made him a fresh eggplant parm which was so thin it was practically just breading, and they also managed to burn that one too. No one ate their entrees. Not even my children. My 11 year old was repulsed by his ravioli and chicken park as well. Luckily we had meatballs and garlic bread before our entrees. Those were edible but still unremarkable. We have no plans to return. Worst food I have ever had to pay for. How do you mess up spaghetti?!?!

Way overpriced. My daughter and I shared a salad, bread, and an entree. Our bill was still $90+. Salad was good, bread ok, but spaghetti and meatballs.... Not good at all. Sauce was blah.... And meatballs were just chunks of cooked hamburger.

First and foremost they do not cater to small parties of 3 or less and 2nd thing is that they are extremely overpriced!they are a family sized food restaurant .
