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.

Authentic Family Style Italian Food In One Word "Fantastico"!
by treasureislands
I have dined at Buca di Beppo in Campbell, CA on many occasions. If I had to give a one word description it would have to be "Fantastico"! Buca di Beppo is an authentic Italian Restaurant with a family twist. All of the dishes at BdB are served Family style on platters for 2 or more, and/or 4 or more (they now offer single servings of Buca favorites). This means all of you're family and/or friends can share several different dishes in whatever size portions that they prefer. If it looks like you are getting low on a favorite dish, just order another platter, (the Eggplant Parmigiana and the Salmon with Pesto are to die for) the staff at BdB will have another dish whipped up before you can say "Quattro Al Forno" (their favorite baked pastas). If you like great service, a colorful energized atmosphere, and really good food, surprise your family and friends with a trip to Buca di Beppo's!
- Pros: Family Style Platters, Energized Atmosphere, Good Food
- Cons: Notfor An Intimate Date

Loud - good for parties

Definitely not a date spot, but awesome for large groups. The food was good. The Chicken marsala was excellent. I came with my family, and I was a bit shocked by some of the pictures on the walls. But everything fit well with the atmosphere they were trying to portray. I'd come here again.

Just not for me
by mholzworth
The food was extremely bland and none of us that went in our group were impressed. We did not even take home the left overs. Many friends of mine love this place, but I fail to see the appeal. The waitress that we had was FABULOUS though and it was one of the best waitresses I have ever encountered.
