Had dinner with a large group, food was very good, drinks were delivered quickly, Christina our server handled all of us very well, even with 22 of us, she had a smile and a great personality. Family style worked well with the larger group, one large lasagna and salad, fed 6 of us, the choices for family style, offers something for everyone, as the rest of our group agreed. read more

Our experience at Buca was tremendous! simple Italian with big portions!! the service was amazing as well! Our waitress Audrey was sweet as button! I highly recommend asking if she's working when you go and you'll be impressed like we were!! thank you Buca!! read more

Visiting Florida with family and this fit the bill for everyone. Our server Amanda was great and the Apple Gorgonzola salad was delicious.

I honestly can't remember the last time I ate at Buca di Beppo, but I'm happy to say the food is still just as good as I remembered. We came here with a group of about 11 people during Disney Marathon Weekend, so we needed a solid carb-loading dinner. Our server was very pleasant and helped us pick a nice variety of dishes so we weren't limited to just spaghetti and meatballs. We arrived around 5 p.m., which turned out to be perfect. Service was quick, and we didn't have to wait long for our food, which was a big plus since we had to be up at 3 a.m. for race day. My favorites were the chicken Alfredo. It was creamy and loaded with chicken. The chicken stuffed with prosciutto was also delicious and definitely worth ordering. We left full, happy, and ready for our races the next day. Great spot for groups, especially if you're fueling up for an early morning! read more

Hostess: a professional roles focused on customer service, welcoming patrons, Unfortunately the hostess was not welcoming nor was she very nice. A smile ? No! A kind word? No! We felt like she wanted us to turn around and leave. We did get there about 1/2 hour before the restaurant closed, but that should not have been a problem. She had to go 'find out' if the kitchen is open. She gave us the menus with such attitude, it really made the experience bad. The ONLY reason I'm giving the 3 star is because the server was absolutely wonderful. The food can be great or it can be terrible, but it's the service that keeps a person coming back, read more

Headline: Poor service and awkward atmosphere; not for solo travelers. As a business traveler, I was disappointed by my experience here. The bar area was entirely empty yet unkempt, with dirty dish rags left on the counter. Despite the lack of crowds, it took 10 minutes to be acknowledged and 15 minutes to get a glass of wine. When the bartender finally returned, he asked if I wanted the check before I had even seen a menu. The pricing is steep ($33 for lasagna) because portions are "family style," which isn't ideal for someone dining alone. After waiting 35 minutes at a dirty counter without silverware, I decided to cancel my order and leave. The service was so chaotic that I witnessed another couple leave in frustration, and one guest actually walked behind the bar to process her own payment and grab to-go boxes because no staff was available. I won't be returning. read more

This is your standard Buca di Beppo; family-style portions and consistent recipes! We came in at a bit of an odd time - so there really was only two other tables occupied. The hostess initially but us at a very small two-top (there were only two of us!), but our waitress quickly moved us to a four-top, since the dishes themselves are so large and take up space. We kept it simple with one meatball, spaghetti bolognese, garlic bread and a Caesar salad. Overall, just a dependable experience! read more

I really miss the Buca in Pittsburgh. This location in Orlando is really nice. The atmosphere wasn't as electric as I remember Pittsburgh to be and a lot better than the one in Atlantic City which I think has also closed. Our server Amanda was wonderful, friendly and a great server with customer, come first attitude. The food was a long wait but worth it !! I love the chicken carbonara !! My favorite. The fried calamari was good. The chicken Parm was the first to go, everyone loved it. I do t like sausage in my lasagna, it some do. Highly recommend this location and when back in Orlando definitely a dinner stop !!! read more

Unfortunately, this visit wasn't the best experience. The service was off our server didn't come to the table until about 15-20 minutes after we were seated, which set the tone for the evening. The ambiance was fine overall, but the bathroom was missing toilet paper, which was disappointing for a restaurant of this size and reputation. As for the food, the pasta didn't look very appetizing, so we didn't even feel inspired to take a picture which says a lot. The one redeeming part of the visit was the birthday dessert, which was actually very good and ended the night on a sweeter note. read more

Just had my engagement celebration here with 40+ people and couldn't recommend it enough for a celebration. The staff were so sweet and attentive. The food was served family style and in big portions so come hungry! The food was so good and everyone loved it. Getting to have everyone close to me in one little room was perfect. Truly so glad I picked Buca for our celebration and will be back. read more

We came to celebrate my son's birthday, but the service completely ruined our celebration. While the ambiance was okay, our server was mostly absent from our table while being attentive to the two other tables she was serving. This should not happen. Our water and sodas were never refilled we had to ask for bread, and we were never offered another drink or vine. When ordering, we were told that the first dish we chose was not available, and after selecting another option, that dish was also not available. If items are no longer served, they should be removed from the menu.. We decided to skipped the dessert, asking for the check was challenging too, terrible. We went next door to Argentinian Restaurant to finish celebrating my son's birthday, where the service and desserts were excellent. read more

Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant - Cheese Manicotti - Italian Near Me - Celebration, Florida

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. read more

This restaurant is located in Celebration. I wasn't sure what to expect when I walked in, it looked a bit dim at first but I had read that it was an Italian restaurant. The ambiance definitely gives off old-school Italian vibes. The walls are covered with photos of popes and nuns in playful, even wild poses, which was quite unexpected! There's even a large dining room with a table featuring a giant pope face in the center, I found that very unusual but interesting. Once seated, we ordered a Cabernet on wine while we looked over the menu. They offer a large selection of dishes and drinks. We started with the cheese bread, which came out warm and delicious. When we asked about the entrées, our server mentioned that the portions were huge and they weren't kidding! Wow We were a party of two and ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo and the Stuffed Chicken. Both were flavorful, rich, and satisfying. The portions were so big that we had enough leftovers for another two meals at home. Overall, I'd recommend this restaurant for big groups or families, the food is tasty, the portions are generous, and the atmosphere is definitely memorable. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant - Italian Near Me - Celebration, Florida

Buca di Beppo is situated within a plaza close to Advent Health Celebration Hospital. This Italian restaurant doesn't joke around when it comes to serving portions. I felt like I was in Texas. They serve family style sized portions where it usually serves 6 to 8 people. The service was great making sure my girlfriend and I had our wine glasses filled. The restaurant is pricey but for the amount they serve you, it began to make sense. We had to take food home. Definitely save your appetite and lash out at dinner with your family here for fine Italian dining. read more

Have not been to this chain in quite some time as they have closed the location that was near me, but stopped in to the one in (Celebration) Orlando, Florida. I must say that the food was not as good as it use to be. Minestrone soup came out looking like a tomato stew and it was cold. Portion size was still good amount of food. Ambiance was still the same which is similar to being in an Italian home on a Sunday. As restaurant chains go, it still delivers a decent value but management needs to be on top of the product coming out of the kitchen especially in this area where there are literally hundreds of choices available. Shame, because I had fond memories of dining at this chain on multiple occasions when the food quality and service were always top notch. read more

Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant - Stuffed Chicken Manicotti , Spicy Rigatoni - Italian Near Me - Celebration, Florida

We went to this location with our friends. Me, my husband, my husband's friend and his wife. We ordered for the 4 people food size. When we got our food, it was very slack. The food serving iis not enough for 4 people. It's only enough for 2-3 not 4. And then, we also ordered the Cheesy bread, it was nasty and hard. It looks and tasted old. And then, we ordered the Colossal brownie Sundae for dessert. Wow, it's the same thing. The dessert looks like they only put 4 scoops of ice cream and 4 little slices of brownies. It was a very disappointing dinner. We came home still very hungry. Unfortunately, it was a waste of time and money to eat here. I don't think we are coming back here again. read more

The food and service were excellent! Our server, Audrey, took care of us and did a fantastic job!

The food is very good! The decor on the inside and the Italian music is spot on! If you sign up for their email list, they send tons of coupons, and if you use the coupons, the price is great, especially for Italian food. The parking lot is clean and easy to navigate too. The surrounding area is nice. The service was just so-so though, and it is a little expensive without a coupon. The family style ordering could be a little complicated if everyone likes different things. They do have lunch offering though where you can just order individual plates. Overall, it's a good Italian place with a unique vibe and good food. read more

Best Italian food I've had in a while! The limone chicken was full of lemony buttery goodness sauce and the mozzarella garlic bread was baguette bread packed with real garlic chumchs and toooed with cheese. My favorite part was the bread dipped in the lemon garlic sauce. The cannoli was so perfectly crunchy and stuffed with sweet ricotta filling and a hot chocolate sauce underneath, pure indulgence. The service was fast and awesome great server Barry he was attentive and funny. I'd come back here time and Time again. read more

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. read more

Barry was such a good waiter! Good food! The spaghetti with meat sauce was delicious. Everything was super good with detail!

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. read more

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! read more

Our server was sweet and helpful. She guided us to the Pappardelle Bolognese, which didn't miss! Pasta was cooked perfectly Al dente. The sauce was hearty and savory. Enjoy it with a glass of wine! Cloth napkins would have been a nice touch. Ambiance was very nice, with fun Italian music and memorabilia on the walls. read more

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. read more

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.

Abundant and really tasty. Got diner delivered but can say all 8 of us - including littles - enjoyed our meal. And leftovers!

We love Buca. We usually go to one at Florida Mall but treated ourselves to the Celebration location. Right across from my office at Disney. Meghan was our server and was awesome. Her service and smile made the difference and she made sure we always had enough bread and drinks. Food was amazing. We has our usual, Baked Rigatoni. It to die for and we always leave full with leftovers! read more

barry was amazing!! great experience and best service ever. I will for sure be coming back.

Buca was awesome today. 1st time at celebration location. Was here with a group for a birthday dinner. Like other Bucas the restaurant is an interesting place to dine. The food was awesome. I had calamari, lasagna, chicken parmigiana among other things. Very friendly staff. Amanda provided above average service. Great overall experience. The wooden chairs were not the most comfortable but that was minor. I would gladly come back to this location. 5 star dining experience. read more
