Smell of sewage radiating through restaurant. So very unappetizing. Today on a Friday, my friend & I wanted an italian lunch. As soon as we walked in we were greeted with an unpleasant scent of sewage. As we were seated into the empty restaurant (near the kitchen) it somehow got worse. It was undeniably bad smelling. We didn't even order drinks, just immediately left. SO unappetizing to smell sewage and toilets in a restaurant. I advise fixing this ASAP. read more

I haven't been to bucca in over 15 years. I remember the warmth of the family style atmosphere. The great food and vibes. That is why I suggested bucca for dinner. It's conveniently located next to the parking structure and close to everyone so it was an easy choice. We made a reservation for 630. Came in and it was just as I remembered. Warm, inviting and it smelled delicious. We were seated right away. Our server was Jin. He was very pleasant. Right off the bat, night started wrong. It was four of us. We ordered our beverages. Our server only brought us 2. My friend wanted a cocktail and they didn't have the spirit it required. Ok, he picked something else, nope. Don't have it. Ok, so he ordered a basic gin and tonic. He wanted more ice. Jin then informs us that they don't have any glassware because they are still washing them. So he provides my friend a white plastic kids cup with ice. He apologizes profusely for not having glassware. It's a little weird but it's okay at this point. We remind him that we're still missing two drinks... That takes forever. I'm assuming because of the lack of glassware. Food comes out. It's pretty good. But after the food comes out we are not checked up on at all until it's time for the bill. I don't think I will return. Jin did his best. read more

My friends and I came here for dinner to try the 4 for $49.99 deal. You get a salad, pasta, entree, and garlic bread in shareable quantities. We chose the Caesar salad (dressing on the side), penne alla vodka, and chicken parmigiana. The penne alla vodka pasta was kind of bland and I wish the chicken parmigiana had come with more sauce. The garlic bread was probably my favorite dish. Overall the food was mid but a good amount of food for the price. We came in on a Wednesday and were one of two parties eating there that night. Because of there were hardly any people, they sat us in the booths near the bar, which I didn't like because they have TVs at the bar that I feel distract from dining out. read more

The waiter we had was very welcoming. However we will definitely not be returning here due to the very low quality of food. The chicken Parmesan was disgusting! The chicken wasn't even crumbed properly and the chicken itself taste like plastic. Super poor quality! The atmosphere was also very dirty with roaches. There were 2 roaches crawling on our table while we were eating. I immediately lost my appetite and was ready to leave. The walkway to the restroom was also super dirty with a dirty kitchen and wet sticky floors! Bathroom was horrendous. Will not be returning. read more

I've always loved Buca! I brought my boyfriend here for the first time a couple weeks ago and he loved it! He got the salmon sorrento with fettuccine Alfredo and I got the lasagna and a side Cesar salad. We also got mozzarella garlic bread! Everything was delicious and of course we had lasagna leftovers which we ate for dinner that same night! The portions are huge, you can definitely share your food with 1 or even more people depending how much you like to eat! The staff is nice, food comes out quickly and it always fun to look around at all the pictures on the walls! read more

Buca di Beppo is the ultimate spot for a fun, family-style feast! The portions are huge, so you definitely won't leave hungry. In fact, you'll probably be rolling out of there in a happy food coma. It's perfect for sharing with a big group, and the atmosphere is always lively and entertaining. If you're looking for a place to indulge and enjoy some classic Italian dishes, Buca di Beppo is a must-try! read more

Way too expensive for the portions that they give you. The quality of food is OK, but they bring three pieces of everything and charge a ton and say that it's supposed to "feed" 3-4 people. It's definitely a business strategy, but it might make you feel like you got taken advantage of. Charging high end restaurant prices to give you the same portions cannot justify the quality and atmosphere of this establishment. Understandably, they have a lot of overhead and the customer will definitely feel that. Service was definitely good though read more

The food is good. You definitely get your monies worth, portion wise. The Espresso Martini was the best I've had! Alexander provided excellent customer service! He was so patient, professional and attentive to our large group of guests! We enjoyed the Ambiance in the round room! read more

The food was absolutely so bad it made me throw up. The smell of the cheese from the garlic bread smelt so bad it ruined my appetite, it was like if the cheese was grated off a FOOT. And also there was a random head of god knows who on a table rotating in a circle staring into everyone's soul. read more

Very good portions of food, service was great Good atmosphere the place was clean, good music ambiance read more

The smell of sewage is still present. I saw others reviews regarding the smell about a month ago and figured by our visit that should be gone. Wrong. Still there. I wonder if that's why it was so empty on Mother's Day. We sat down and the smell was terrible. We were contemplating on leaving or staying for 5 minutes but since no one ever came to even take our drink order, the decision was easy and we left. Unacceptable as there were maybe only 3 other parties there. Hope they fix the smell asap read more

Alexander was amazing! He was so friendly and quick on the service. He also made some great suggestions on drinks. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Buca used to be one of our favorite restaurants 10+ years ago. We enjoyed the large portions and having something to enjoy later. We recently received a gift card and so it was time to go back. Unfortunately our experience was not good at all. We ordered a small chicken parmigiana, a small pizza, and tiramisu. All of that came to $100. Of course the good thing, in theory, is that we had food leftover for the next day. But when the food isn't great that's not exactly a bonus. Everything that we ordered lacked flavor. Nothing tasted fresh at all. The chicken parm barely had sauce on it. But the sauce wasn't good anyway. We used to love their tiramisu. It was light and airy with solid coffee and chocolate flavor. But now it's this almost solid block of mildly flavored meh. It's a shame because we have many great memories at Buca. But we won't be back. read more

Great service, great food. We love sitting in the bar area an easy dinner. The bar tender knows us and is always so friendly.

To be honest, I didn't even know this place was still open, but we wanted to try something different since we haven't dined here in ages and were celebrating an accolade my daughter received. When we first arrived, we noticed a foul wet bar rag smell. The lobby is next to the bar so I thought that's where the smell was coming from, but that moldy aroma was noticeable in the dining areas too. We still stayed and dined, food was good but service needs some serious attention. From the beginning, service was questionable. We were the only ones in the lobby when we arrived and there was no host to greet or seat us. We stood there for several minutes until I decided to walk around the dining area to find someone by the kitchen to help us. That should have been our sign to leave, but we didn't. The place was pretty empty, maybe only two other parties were already dining when we arrived. Our server was Crissy and she wasn't attentive at all. After she took our drink order, we kept wondering where she was... the wait for our drinks was really really long, then when she was finally on her way to bring our waters she realized she forgot my glass of wine when she saw us and made a u-turn and disappeared again. When she finally served us our drinks I told her that we were ready to order and she said she'd be right back to take our order. She walked away and brought water to another table that arrived after us then proceeded to immediately take their order. I was furious, especially since we were there way before that other party arrived and was waiting for service for too long at that point. When we saw her take their order first, even after I told her that we were ready to order when she brought our drinks, I was ready to walk out, they didn't deserve our patronage. I felt Crissy displayed prejudice in her actions and that wasn't ok. Anyway, someone else brought us our food and additional napkins and checked on us if we needed anything else during our meal. Crissy only checked on us to see if we wanted dessert and when we declined, she already had our check and to-go containers in hand. This was not the dining experience I expected here. I had fond memories of celebrating various occasions at Buca back in the day, but because of this experience, I won't ever return to this location again... it was frustrating, definitely not like the fun times I remember. Buca, the moldy smell needs looking into and please have higher standards and retrain your staff here for proper service. It's sad to see this location fall by the wayside. read more

Service was good! The food is slightly pricey $40 for small spaghetti and meatballs is a little high.

Man! I found out they had happy hour so I said LETS Gooooo Arrived at 5 and it was a ghost town. Ordered drinks and when I say these were the WORST cocktails I've ever had in my life I mean it. The bartender couldn't tell it was horrible by the full glass after I left.... She didn't offer a different drink or something else. Out of the 3 cocktails my party ordered none of them tasted like alcohol. Be ware We ordered the fried cheese, Bruschetta and fried ravioli! Oh boy these tasted straight out the freezer section & deep fried in old dirty oil. While the prices are right, I'd rather pay more for quality food. The WiFi was the only positive thing about my visit read more

When I was younger I didn't appreciate how good of a restaurant this was. Now that I order for myself I understand what to get. I highly recommend the meat balls and the stuffed shells with ricotta. Order a side of red sauce for dipping the fresh hot bread. Peroni beer is a perfect complement to any dish. The service has been consistent and without blemish. No upselling like other chain, so called Italian restaurants. The decor is loud and vibrant. You better be prepared in the mood for a laugh because every picture on the wall is funny. 5 stars all round. read more

We enjoyed the chicken carbonara and the mozzarella bread. Alexander was our server and he did a phenomenal job.

We sat in the kitchen table and it was seriously such an amazing experience. The chef came to our table and brought the kids personal pizzas to make and boxes to decorate at the end of our meal (for free). It was such a fun time and it made the kids feel so special. read more

The very strong sewage smell as you walk into the restaurant is absolutely disgusting. After looking at past reviews, it's unacceptable that sewage problems haven't been fixed in over a year. We should have left as soon as we walked in. unfortunately we all now don't feel well. Bummer, because we usually enjoy Buca. read more

Our server Alexander provided great service! Food was great, restaurant was clean!!!!!

crissy is awesome!! the food is fresh, scrumptious, delicioso!! we love buca di beppo!!!

Haven't eaten here in a while but always was happy until now, ordered take out and was totally disappointed. Ordered mixed green salad with chicken (3-4 people for $40+) and pizza ($30+ for 6 pieces!). Salad would never serve 3-4 people - wilted lettuce on bottom, half full pint container of chicken for $10, 6 slice pizza was way too small for $30+. Sorry but these prices are crazy and unfortunately, we will not be dining here again read more

Had a last minute lunch date on Friday, November 22, 2024 at approximately 1130 hours. This particular location is in Santa Clarita, CA and in a mall type setting with plenty of parking spaces. The restaurant appeared to be deserted, no other customers during our visit. This was odd since we arrived/departed around peak lunch time. Honestly, other than a few employees, we never saw another customer and I was facing the entrance to the restaurant. We were told to sit anywhere in the bar area. Bar area consisted of several spacious booths and several high-top tables. The booth was comfortable and seat was firm. The bartender took our beverage and food order. The bar appeared to have lots of cocktail drink options available. However, the mirrored wall behind the bar needed to be cleaned. The mirrors were "foggy & dingy". The restaurant appeared to be clean and organized. Restrooms were cleaned and fully stocked but a bit dated. We ordered from the lunch menu. We had the Mozzarella Garlic Bread. The bread was served piping hot, creating a stringy, cheesy pull. It was delicious and I highly recommend this menu option. We were served a complimentary warm loaf with a delicious olive oil and balsamic vinegar mixture. This was really tasty as well. We ordered the Apple Gorgonzola salad. The lunch portion is enough for 3-4 people, if you are ordering an entrée. The salad had thinly sliced fresh crisp Granny Smith apple slices, and diced tart crisp granny smith apples. The lettuce was a nice leafy green assortment, tossed with the apples, dried cranberries, spiced walnuts, Gorgonzola cheese in their signature Italian vinaigrette. Everything was perfectly dressed. OMG!! This salad did not disappoint. I highly recommend this salad. I wanted the lasagna, however, it was not available until 1200 hours (we were 30 minutes too early); I was disappointed. Our server did pop into the kitchen to see if I could order a bit earlier but unfortunately it wasn't available. He recommended the baked rigatoni, which he said was similar..lol it really isn't similar but a nice suggestion on his part. I informed him that I did want the rigatoni but it wasn't a lunch menu option. He doubled checked and it was. It just wasn't listed on the menu. My rigatoni was a large serving and served piping hot. The meat sauce had plenty of meat and pieces of spicy Italian sausage. It was topped with mozzarella, Parmesan & ricotta.it was delicious and would definitely order again. My sister ordered the Chicken Saltimbocca with a side of Alfredo. It had prosciutto, sage, artichoke quarters in a lemon butter sauce with capers. She said her dish was delicious and would order again. Buca di Beppo did not disappoint and not sure why it was lacking customers. Maybe the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday..who knows. But we would definitely eat here again. I didn't give it 5 stars bc it was extremely cold in the restaurant, they had the front door propped open so that didn't help matters; restaurant was a bit dated. read more

Alexander gave us great service. The food and drink available in a timely manner. He was attentive to our needs Food was delicious.

First impressions, the restaurant has a musty smell. The second thing that struck us as odd was that it was 7 PM on a Wednesday night and the place was empty. We ended up ordering the breadsticks, lemon, chicken, and the lasagna. We also did a carafe of the sparkling sangria and two waters. I was surprised when they brought the chicken that there was no side pasta with it. Usually, there's some sort of angel hair side pasta. I should have read the menu better. The chicken was just average at best. It felt as though it was reheat? I would not come back for it nor do I think I'll even have my leftovers it was that unremarkable. The lasagna was good. The breadsticks were good but not for the price. I think they were $17 if I'm not mistaken, which is crazy! The only thing that was really made well in my opinion was the cocktail. Lastly, I'll add that in our section were two other tables that showed up after us. I overheard the other waiter say his name was Victor. He was not our waiter but I think it's important to note he was doing a great job. He was very attentive to his tables and we were impressed with his kindness and promptness to his tables. Total $140.00 tax and tip. read more

So sad this place is run down. It was pretty empty. The sewage smell was pretty bad. The food ok but the price they are charging it wasn't worth the quality. Order pizza and it was $27 and half the size it used to be. Pasta my husband made a comment that it and waitress replied it all gets weighed must be a heavier pasta. Will not be going again. read more
