In Short
Homesick for your mother's Italian cooking? Grab your appetite and head to this restaurant, where the friendly wait staff will serve up portions of Colosseum-esque proportions, like spaghetti and meatballs loaded with savory tomato sauce and lots of pungent garlic. Dishes center on Southern Italian immigrant fare, and are meant to be shared family-style with a large goblet of wine-to enhance the taste, of course. The ornate décor with walls covered in vintage photos evokes a warm homey feel that welcomes customers to dine among the other families and loyal customers. Buon Appetito!

What can I say? It's fun, festive, with lots of big family style plates...but you came here to eat, right? Shouldn't the food taste a bit better?

• Pros: atmosphere
• Cons: food

If you have ever dined at any Buca di Beppo, the fare and prices are fairly standard. For 4 persons, we shared a small green salad, sm pepperoni pizza, spaghetti w/meat sauce and a large fried calamari appetitzer & soda/milk for approx $60. Our waitress was very friendly and sat down next to us to explain the menu/specials. The above food items were very good and would recommend trying. There were lots of birthday celebrations at the restaurant when we were there on a Monday night! Great place for large parties.

• Pros: Large portions, inexpensive, good food

Be prepared to take food home. The servings are large and the food is excellent. Great service and a fun atmosphere. You can even get a tour of the kitchen if you want. This was the 1st time I've eaten here but I definetly will be back.

• Pros: FOOD, atmosphere, service
