"My family and I went to Buca as a joint graduation (IU) and Mother's Day dinner. I love Buca food, however, the restaurant was very crowded (which was only to be expected given the day) and LOUD. In addition, the service was not as good as previous visits. The waitress was inattentitive. Our glasses sat empty and the bread must have been coming out of her pay. Disappointing service and too crowded."

"My family always enjoys themselves when we dine at Buca. The place is very "Family" friendly and everyone gets treated as if they are the only one sitting at the table. No matter when or what the occasion for celebrating... It is always a pleasure to visit Buca in Greenwood, Indiana."

"The flavors in the food at Buca are much closer to what you would find in Italy (10 visits) and not made to "appeal to the American palate" (read added sugar). The servings are more than generous. Be careful, though; it is easy to run up a very expensive bill."

"Surprised my wife by meeting her family here for her birthday. It was the perfect spot for a family birthday celebration. If you're looking for someplace quiet, low lit and romantic, this is probably not your spot. If you want an energetic and fun environment, look no further. The food was excellent. Our waiter, James, did a great job. They were very busy when we were there, but he managed well. I would recommend this spot to family and friends."

"We came to Buca because we were tired of the same old dining out scene. We drove over an hour in hopes that we would have a great time out and a fabulous dinner. That's exactly what we had. The food was great and the service was too. We will definitely be making the drive again for more Buca."

"The food was very good, with the exception of the calamari, with took forever to come out, and was very unappealing. The waitress was nice, but made strange comments about the amount of food we ate which made everyone uncomfortable. The music was a little bit loud for 12:00 in the afternoon. I liked this restaurant, but can't say I would go out of my way to go to this location, but overall good."

"The garlic cheese bread was dry and cold. The Lasagna portion was good but cheeply made with canned tomatoes. The noodles were overcooked which provided a very poor texture. Overall flavor of the lasagna was tomatoe...I could barely detect any seasonings. I've had better from the frozen food section. The side salad (ceasar) was so basic and flavorless that I would have prefered a salad from McDonalds. The crutons were stale and hard a rock. We also ordered flavored lemonade. Over sweetened with the cheap strawberry syrup used. Tiramisu was ordered to go. It was delivered in a plastic bowl that looked like a messy scoop pudding. My wife tried it and she had it returned due to it literally being layers of pudding. Overpriced slop!"

"First time visit. Very impressive. Invited my wife daughter and boyfriend to dinner for valentines day. Took a coupon for 4 for 40.00. When we arrived the waitress asked questions on choice options and took our order. Then came back during the meal and said, gee, you were supose to get a large salad and a large garlic bread and you got the small. Also, you got the meat sauce and that was not an option on this coupon. That was my fault. Can I just take 10.00 off your bill. Embarrassed and a bit confused, I agreed just to get passed the incident. After, my daughter said, (a waitress herself at one time),
"that was ackward, she should have just honored the coupon, and offered the appetizer we had for free" since the mistake was her's and..."

"Buca Di Beppo's is amazing!! The food is authentic Italian and sooo delicious! The menu selection is extensive, there should be something that would please everyone. The dining is suited for family style dining, meaning one small meal is large enough for two people and the larger portion feeds four, but you can often find special coupons online before going, if you want to order more than one thing, and the food is so good anything on the menu would please an Italian food lover!! :-) Highly recommend this place!! :-)"

"My experience here was nowhere near as good as I had hoped. I was looking to take my girlfriend
On a romantic date to a nice restaurant with her favorite food, Italian. I knew ahead of time
This place was very expensive, but I expected the food quality to be worthy of the price; it was not.
My girlfriends fettuccini tasted no better than a frozen meal I could've got from a grocery store, and
My chicken rigatoni was the same way. To top it all off, when we clearly declined the
Waitresses' offer to add garlic bread to our meal for 8$ (We said NO we do NOT want to
add garlic bread to our meal tonight) we received it anyway, already added to our
bill! It is safe to say my girlfriend and I will not be returning here!"

The staff was accomodating and very friendly.....plus it was great to see a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes. The preparation and time that goes into serving the menu items is second to none. I would recommend this establishment to everyone!"

"When served family style it is important to bring enough plates and silverware for the entire group. Drinks were slow to be refilled. One error on our order had to be corrected. Given all of that, I would still go back. Restaurant was packed on a Saturday night, but it is a fun place for groups and celebrations like birthdays (it was my 60th). Food is very good."
