Reviews for Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant in Palo Alto, CA
Don't order online from this place. The dishes have zero sauce. We bought a spaghetti and frutti di mare. It is expensive and... you definitely don't get what you pay for. Read more
1st time at this location. I enjoy the family atmosphere. The loud children screaming in the background, adults laughing in... their conversing, activity of banging dishes in the backdoor. The portions are large, and for 3 adults, we couldn't finish ourfood order. In my opinion, the pasta needed more flavor and we weren't offered any parmesan cheese. Total for our order $175. 1alcoholic drink 2 lemonade, 2 appetizers, 2 entrées and 1 salad. Read more
Great place and food, but the Service it's Awesome!!!!! The best!!! So nice and kind, and that It is enough for me.
We went in to this restaurant and we didn’t expect much due to very fewer people in the restaurant. However after we tested... food, we think we should give a review. So you can see the pictures of the food were touched before we took thephoto. Excellent food and very good service! We ordered one shrimp pasta and pasta with cheese. The shrimp pasta has a lot offavors with little bit a spicy bite to it. I love it. The chess pasta was backed perfectly. We also ordered desert.Tiramisu isreally good with creamy coffee favor and large portion for serving. It’s a good restaurant to eat. Read more
Had the lemon chicken. Tender breading. Tasty capers and lemon sauce. Pricey, but worth it. I enjoyed every bite. Had an adult... beverage or two. Equally divine. Family friendly. Family service. Nice early meal to avoid the Friday night gridlock. Totallyworked for me! Read more
My all-time favorite restaurant!!! I went to the San Francisco location many years ago before it sadly closed down. I went to... this location in Palo Alto for my birthday back in March. It was an okay experience, but I still wanted to give this placeanother try. Let me tell you, I was completely blown away by the waiter's FANTASTIC service. Dewann was not only kind andcourteous, he was also attentive, positive, warm-hearted, and overall cheerful. I can tell he was HAPPY to serve not only at mytable, but every other table he served as well. I've never received such exquisite hospitality before in my life. The breadbasket tasted amazing because of the way he presented it along with the way he served the olive oil, vinaigrette, and Italianseasoning in a small bowl. It looks messy in the picture I took because I already started digging in. But seriously, he servedit with such perfection that I ended up smiling for the rest of my stay. The food was really good, but it was all about thepresentation from Dewann that left me absolutely satisfied. To the manager of this location: Please give Dewann some kind ofspecial recognition, a raise, and even a promotion. He really does deserve it! THANK YOU Dewann for making me feel at home withyour service. I look forward to returning to this wonderful location soon. Read more
Centrally located near University Drive, in Palo Alto, this was a quaint but strange Italian Restaurant. We entered the... restaurant, through the kitchen, into a wonderfully decorated nostalgic restaurant. We had quite a large party, so we ordereda variety of dishes to eat. The fried calamari was to DIE for!! The Alfredo and Brussel sprouts salad, were a little dry, butall of the other dishes were tasty. Read more
