Buca di Beppo serves authentic Italian cuisine in an eclectic, vintage setting. Our dishes are served family-style, meant to be shared by everyone at the table. Two sizes are available: BUCA SMALL feeds up to two and BUCA LARGE feeds up to four. At Buca, guests delight in our lively atmosphere, enjoy the classic tunes of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin and admire our décor, including family photos and candid shots of Italian-American icons, such as Sophia Loren and Joe DiMaggio. Our energetic atmosphere, delicious food and friendly staff make Buca di Beppo the perfect place for great Italian food and fun.
"We went on Mother's Day for dinner, and it was super busy, even though we were able to make a reservation two days before. We had to wait a few minutes for our table, even though we had a reservation, but it was not a long wait. We did, however, wait for about an hour to get our food. They brought our salad right away and we polished off two baskets of bread and a whole bottle of wine, so when our food came, we had to get most of it boxed up to go. The food was incredibly delicious though!
I would definitely recommend."

"I've been to several Buca restaurants and they are consistently good, not great or phenomenal but good. When I just want some good comfort food, I can always count on Buca."

"We have been fans of Buca for years and for the first time left feeling like the food was mediocre and over-priced. We tried to order our favorite item on the menu - the chicken marsala - and the server told us the recipe had been changed and it wasn't very good. That was disappointing as I have felt that Buca's chicken marsala was the best around. We wanted to order the garlic mashed potatoes and they are no longer on the menu. The Burnsville Buca still offers them, but again disappointing. The fettucini alfredo was not good. It was very dry and barely had any sauce on it. The spicy chicken rigatoni barely had any chicken in it and again, little sauce. The parmesan chicken had plenty of sauce, but was tough. Not sure we will be back."

"It took us over an hour and a half to get our food - for a 5:15pm reservation. Also we did not receive the $20 gift certificate for a future visit - which was advertised for mothers."

"We visit Buca's frequently and this past Sat. dinner while we were there was very frustrating. The small room we were in was very crowded and loud. I was with my family of 6 and we couldn't even talk to each other because of the noise.
Just thought you should know. :)"

"We consider ourselves foodies and love trying new places to eat. Bucca by far has the best Fettuccini alfredo I have ever had. The atmosphere was great and service outstanding. Thank you for the great experience!"

"We had a group of 7 and the service was very good with wine. One of the penne dishes was not quite what we expected with no flavor. The others were very good, along with the appetizers."

"I was disappointed in the small gluten free menu. For this reason we Will probably not be back. We need to dine where there is more option For Gluten free."

"Our family was gathered together to enjoy some good food and company. We did that and agreed on using Buca's as my son's rehearsel dinner location this summer. We are looking forward to our guests having as much fun and enjoying the food, service, and ambiance as much as we did on April 20th."

"The food was good relative to the pricing. When we arrived at our reserved time we still had to wait 20-30 minutes for a table. The service was slow and inconsistent. The timing of the entres was poor. It took much longer to dine than was necessary for bread salad and pasta."

"Buca seems to be rebounding. Last time we were here it was a horror due to the lousy service we received from Matt. Our hearts were in our mouths when we walked in and saw him in the kitchen area. My wife and I agreed to be asked to be seated elsewhere in case we got him as a server. Fortunately that wasn't the case and we had a splendid time. The service was prompt, courteous and professional; unlike out last experience with Matt. The food was exceptionally good which reminded us of the old days at 12th and Harmon."

"We usually love going to Buca's. We drive over 100 miles to eat at Buca's in Burnsvilke, MN, but Saturday night was the worse. Service was extremely slow, and when our food finally did arrive after waiting over an hour, two items were incorrect. Decided it woukd take TOO long for our server to correct our order, so we just let it go. We did tell our server about the incorrect items, but he didn't correct our bill. We were over charged for the two items, but just paid the bill and left. Took so long for our server to even come take our debit card, so we decided just to pay in cash and get out of there. Very POOR service!"

"We went to Buca's for our son's 22nd birthday. We were seated at the "Chef's Table" which is in the kitchen by the way. While it was a little noisy, watching the chefs cook was mesmerizing. They gave us an appetizer for our "inconvenience". Our server was friendly and attentive. The food was amazing. We took a Colossal Brownie Sundae home for dessert. Needless to say we all suffered from a sugar hangover the next morning, but it was so worth it!"

"Buca offers a unique dining experience to be sure- chain or not. The one tip I would give to a family or larger group dining there is to make sure and reserve a round table to better enjoy the family style fare."

"I will never got to Bucca on Valentines Day ever again! We were a group of 2=Obliviously a couple. Don't put a wooden divider between two different groups of people at one table. That is NOT intimate and VERY Tacky. I would fire whoever made that call. That was just silly!"

"The food was amazing and tasted great. Our server however failed to check in more than once and I was left sitting with an empty glass for more than 5 minutes. I had to flag down a food runner to ask to get the server to bring the check and to box our food to go. The server didn't even tell us her name and so we couldn't even have that courtesy from her. While eating I saw others in my section that introduced themselves and were checking on tables. It would be nice to ensure emphasis on checking in and introducing to tables."

"If you come here as a couple, since portions are served family style, just plan to take extra food home. The atmoshere is a kick, which makes it fun.
We had the bruschetta, braised short ribs, and a dish with four kinds of pasta. The bruschetta came in a huge margarita type glass - an interesting presentation. The taste was just OK, nothing special. The sauce within which the short ribs were submerged was really not that tasty (just like a brown sauce)- actually planned to take home the extra and do something like BBQ/A1 combo, which would have been an improvement. The four kinds of pasta were all worthy of an Italian restaurant. So overall, just fine food albeit a bit disappointing."

"It is good if your fellow diners are good. Ask for a round table for larger parties. Servers are adequate, but not outstanding. Good food and good portions."
