"I took my wife out to Bucas for mothers day. Reservations were easy to get online. When we arrived our booth was ready with no waiting time. The food at Bucas is always delicious and everyone was friendly and attentive. The experience as always the same wether it's two people or a croud. OUTSTANDING."

"Went here for Mother's Day. The restaurant was very crowded, but when we arrived our table was ready and we were able to be seated right away despite the dozen or so people already waiting in the lobby area. We were seated at the kitchen table and had a great time watching the action in the kitchen on that very busy day. The food was great as always and the server was very attentive. A great experience for adults and kids!!"

"We were greeted as soon as we walked in the door. This was a surprise birthday party for my sisters 50th birthday. I made reservations online with specific instructions and they were carried out successfully by the hostess, waiter and kitchen crew. Awesome job, great service and great food! It was also awesome that we were seated at the kitchen table."

"took our daughter and grandson (10) for Easter to the Roseville store. Had a reservation, but were seated in the bar (not full) which was a surprise. Ordered our food/drinks. got our good salad, then got our two main course meals to share.....our grandson's meal did not show up, only came after I caught a supervisor walking through and asked about it (waitress nowhere to be found) he went to get the kids pizza, took about 5 minutes or more, brought it to us. I told him we awere done eating and the one with the least patience was just getting his meal. He admitted the waitress did not order it/forgot it/do not know what happened. He did comp his meal and one dessert for us. That was nice but prompt service would have been much better"

"Our first time experience was awesome. Our waiter was friendly and full of life which made our dining experience above and beyond expectation. The pizza we ordered (Supremo Italiano)was off-the-hook GOOD! We also ordered a calamari appetizer, along with a good, old fashion, down-to-earth spaghetti and meatballs, which were both up to par. A little more seasoning on the meatballs, if I may say. And the cannoli!...it was my first time trying--and what better place than Buca di Beppo to have experience my first one!
Would definitely visit to explore more items on their menu!"

"After having to wait ~15 minutes even with an open table reservation, we made our way to our table. The food was fantastic, however the portions didn't feed as they said. I wouldn't say a small plate would feed 2. To noisy for my tastes as well."

"The table waitress was fabulous. But we have a complain about the receptionist who stood behind the reception desk in black dress. We had a on-line reservation at 5:00pm on Fed. 9 and I also went to Buca in person for confiring on Feb. 8. But when we got Buca by 5:00 that day. We still must wait more 20 minutes because she had no idea about our reservation and hadn't set our table yet. And she didn't say any sorry about that.I had same unpleasant experience at your another restaurant at Howe Ave. I think you must have something wrong about the receptionist training or on-line problems."
