Opinions de Buca di Beppo Garden Grove
Had a great dinner tonight with the family. The service was great, and they were very attentive with our party's food allergy. Tacky Italian decor is also very fun Definitely recommend getting the cannoli for dessert. If you have done any research on this place before hand it is family style with big portions so plan to share a few dishes.
literally my new favorite restaurant. the restaurant itself is an art museum and the food is just the cherry on top. I went at lunch so I got a huge bowl of pasta (with protein added) for less than $20. my friends and I really enjoyed dining here. I got the fettuccine alfredo + chicken with a side of caesar salad and it was so good. the chicken wasn’t dry or anything and the sauce was perfectly creamy. highly recommend + I’ll definitely come back 🍝🍝
Our server was Vanessa, and we had just the best time here! The service she gave us was great and the decorations are really unique that make it such an interesting and atmospheric place to eat! I came here with my family and we had so much fun, would definitely recommend anybody to come here!! Love this place! 🫶🫶
The only restuarant directly outside of Embassy Suites. Wandered over for a late night dinner before i went a mile down the road for a 10k at Disneyland. Thank you to Lili and(i did not catch the other bartender's name but he was incredible too), and the (?manager) who i hope took the jesting in good spirits about a glass getting dropped(i joked that if you dont know who dropped it, always blame the manager, as they are usually elswehere... he was cleaning it up and super friendly). I ordered off the lunch menu, the fire roasted shrimp pasta and a small upcharged caesar salad. As well as a beer to help me get to sleep. It was incredible. Amazing vibes, and great time spent getting fueled for 6.2 miles at 5am.
Went for a birthday celebration and was not disappointed. Leanne was the absolute best, if you come make sure to ask for her! The deals were great and the food was even better.
Fun place! We ordered food family style and had a great time. Food was all delicious. Next time I will save room for dessert!

As always, very good food family style portions, could suggestions on the menu from the server. Overall I thought the food presentation taste and flavor was definitely an A. Unfortunately the only negative is very crowded, very loud, hard to talk to our table of five. However we will visit again next time in the area.
Went here the other day with my friends and were impressed with the decorations and atmosphere of the restaurant. However, I would suggest getting the margarita pizza as oppose to any other pizza or pasta. Our pasta was not as flavorful and overcooked. Would highly suggest the pizza though, it was delicious! Our server was very kind as well helping my party have a stress free dining experience. Before ordering keep in mind each pasta dish is made to serve 3 people for the regular size and 6 people for the large size.
OMG, Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant is amazing 😍, not just the food but also the vibe, will definitely bring my family to here for a big meal next time. Traditional Italian restaurant interior decorations, wooden walls with lots of photos of individuals or groups of people, friends, families, very warm atmosphere here. My dinner here started with their Apple Gorgonzola, Granny Smith apples, spiced walnuts, dried cranberries & Gorgonzola tossed with mixed lettuce in our signature Italian vinaigrettes, VERY FRESH and light, though the portion is big, you can easily finish it by yourself. Like particularly the kick of the spiced walnuts' crunchness. Followed by Shrimp Fra Diavolo, garlic shrimp & crushed red pepper with penne in their "heavenly delicious" spicy rosa sauce, plus the sprinkles of chili flakes, this is really one of the best pasta I've ever had.
Came here for lunch, first time at this location, with husband and got seated right away. This restaurant is always warm and inviting in terms of decor and atmosphere. Service was very friendly as always. Ordered the salmon sorrento with side (I chose spaghetti with marinara) for $16 and for $3 more I added a Caesar salad and it was very flavorful with capers, citrus sauce, fish was cooked wonderfully and spaghetti is always so good here! My husband got the chicken parm with spaghetti with marinara and a house salad for about the same price. We got complimentary Sourdough dinner bread with oil and vinegar and then my husband ordered the cheese cake with strawberry glaze ($15) Yum!!! All in all, this location did not disappoint as like all the others we've been to! It's nice to have consistency in the same restaurant regardless of the location! Highly recommend especially for our two lunch entrees, dessert, and beverage at $65 before tip!
I liked the playful, inspiring and colorful decor, stimulating the senses. The atmosphere was lively but relaxing. The service was prompt and the food good . We had a very enjoyable dinner.

I stayed in Hampton Inn & Suites Anaheim so this Italian place is literally 30 second from the hotel lobby. Had dinner and drink for three nights. Good service, food and drink.
Buca di Beppo is known for family style dining and while they serve large portions meant to be shared, this style might not be for everyone. The simple Italian menu items ultimately look good, but many appetizers are frozen and fried. The food presentation looks and tastes ok, but I do believe for the price you pay for Small or Large portions... it should be unlimited. The following is what $179 for three people get you. We had the trio of appetizers, bottle of house wine, pasta and one entree. Not sure if this was just Anaheim (Disneyland area) pricing but that is just crazy. Surely the pricing seems to be a bargain but is deceptive as the three person portions aren't of highest ingredients comparative to the price. $35 for a bowl of pasta, $46 for salmon and $41 for appetizers and while it does "feed" three people, the quality was sub par. Three cuts of salmon, a semi-sauced Alfredo and enough fried calamari and shrimp left overs for the week. The real treat was the service and wait staff being tremendously helpful and welcoming. Unfortunately for families with budgets and looking for quality over quantity, I recommend to look for other restaurants before deciding on Buca do Beppo and their high $55 pp price.
This is a cool place for large parties but the food is just okay, needs some more flavor (except the stuffed mushrooms and mozzarella garlic bread they are fire!) and I feel it is over priced. $40 for a bowl of spaghetti and meatballs that has no flavor is excessive. Tonight's service was not the best our server forgot a drink and was hard to track down for some water and when my son asked the bartender for some water he was told to ask our server instead of helping him out. (We would have asked our server if we could find him). The cocktails we ordered didn't have much if any alcohol in them and our dessert "tiramisu" was dry.
The parking lot was clean. The waiting area was not too crowded yet. I went with a party of 8 people including some preteen children. We were seated quickly. The server was polite and helpful. She gave recommendations, which I was delighted to hear. While she took drink orders, I looked at the flatware which was very dirty. In fact the fork had a dried on piece of food. I made a face and took a napkin and wiped off, scraped then polished the fork. The server noticed but said nothing. Our drinks were delivered the server still polite ☺️ The camera person walked over to the table and I took that moment to go to the bathroom sink to wash my fork with soap. The event leader ordered and the food was delivered. It was family style so it arrived in large serving platters/bowls. The garlic bread was killer delicious 😋 The seating is open and tables are very close to each other. I am confident that there were families nearby who hated us for being a group of loud co-workers 😬
Okay, now this is CRAZY! For Veterans Day, I came in for the free Meatball and Spaghetti and it was FABULOUS! So a couple weeks later, I am in the mood for Italian and I want to show my appreciation for the previous free meal and decided to come back here for dinner! So I am seated and my lovely server Giovonna asks me have I been here before and do I know about the Shared Portion sizes! I smile and say yes, and I told her I am hungry and I can eat a lot! She leaves me the menu --- and I am FLABBERGASTED to say the least! Three (3) meatballs and spaghetti are a WHOOPING $39.99 and a basket of bread is $19.99! Luckily, I only ordered water to drink, and when Gio came back, I apologized to her because I am NOT paying $60 --- minus tax and tip just for me! She then tells me, if I go to the bar --- I can order the lunch menu there and get out for about $20! I decline, because the last thing I want is a drunken slob bloviating mistruths when my only desire is to have a nice, quiet sit down meal in an Italian-styled atmosphere! I left a two-dollar tip and bounced! So --- Morale of the Story: SINGLE DINERS . . . beware!
I recently dined at this restaurant for a feast meant for four people. Right from the start, I was impressed by the speedy service we received, which made our experience enjoyable. As for the food, it was decent—not spectacular, but certainly better than what I’ve had at Olive Garden in the past. While this place isn't my top choice for Italian cuisine, I opted for it because I had my toddler with me, and I wanted to stick with something familiar and safe for a family-friendly dining experience. Overall, it turned out to be a satisfactory meal, and I appreciated the convenience it offered during our outing.
I honestly found this restaurant to be overpriced for very basic items. The dining is family style so the servings are for 2-4 people. Two of us ordered one pasta and garlic bread and found it to l…

My friends, party of 4, came here on a Wednesday night around 5pm and it wasn't busy at all. They sat us in a back room with about 4 other tables which seemed to be the only others dining in the entire restaurant. After being sat by the hostess it took about 10 minutes for a gentlemen to show up to say hello. We knew what we wanted so we ordered right away so we didn't have to wait longer. We weren't offered any bread or had any dropped at our table. We got our drinks fast and food about 15 minutes after. When the food came we asked if we were able to get bread as nobody brought any by and we're informed it was only by request? Nobody told us that when we were sat or even when we ordered, so we asked for the house bread. I guess 3 dry cold pieces of ciabatta is the house bread. No oil or vinegar was dropped off with the bread either. So after about 5 minutes of trying to find somebody walking around, we requested the oil and vinegar. It was like a ghost town and everyone was hiding from guests. We ordered small plates which were underwhelming for the prices charged. When we were done it took about another 10 minutes to flag a different server in a new section they opened to come by and asked if we needed anything, yes the check. We saw our server a whopping 3 times the entire service and never came by with the check. The other server helped us again. 3 small chicken breasts cut in half (a thin sliced breast, not even a full sized one) with lemon, shrimp pasta and a plate of cheese manicotti and 4 soft drinks came out too 145?! The service was horrible as nobody came to the section unless food was coming out and you had to flag someone walking by for anything. Food was mediocre and portions were so small for the prices. I haven't visited buca in a few years but I remember loving it because the atmosphere and food portions were outstanding. This chain has definitely gone downhill and I would not ever recommend someone dining here with family or friends. I'd much rather support a local family business that values their patrons. I was embarrassed to even take my friends here.
One of the worst places to eat not Italian place, let me tell you about the prices are at this restaurant I feel so dumb for picking this place, never again. The lasagna is the worst it taste like cheap canned sauce. DONT BOTHER COMING HERE. One trip here and 3 trips to the bathroom.
Today was meant to be one of those rare, golden evenings—a celebration of two retirements and two January birthdays, all folded into one. We chose Buca di Beppo because it promised warmth, a family-style cheer, the kind of gathered happiness we wanted to mark this turning of the page. We arrived with that quiet, hopeful excitement that comes with a long-awaited treat. But somehow, from the very beginning, we slipped through the cracks. Seated in a quiet corner of the bar, we watched as laughter and attentive service flowed everywhere but to our table. It was as if we were behind a pane of glass, looking in on the celebration we’d come to join. Our server, who was also busy behind the bar, seemed worlds away, and the minutes stretched out slowly, emptily—no water, no greeting, just the growing sense of being forgotten. When the food finally came, long after we’d given up on timing, it was a mix of small mercies and deep letdowns. My wife’s Alfredo was freshly made, a cruel contrast to my own plate of rubbery, clumped pasta and lukewarm sauce, clearly abandoned long before it reached me. By then, we were just hungry, and the chance to speak up never came—our server vanished again for what felt like forever. We ate in quiet resignation, the joy of the occasion seeping away with each passing minute. I had told them, more than once, that this was a special night. It’s a detail that now hangs in the air, unanswered. In the end, we paid dearly—not just in cost, but in that quiet feeling of having been overlooked on a night that deserved a little light. Maybe somewhere, in another location, the spirit of that restaurant still lives. But tonight, as I paid for my own birthday dinner in silence, even the dessert we were promised felt like a distant rumor. We left carrying the weight of the evening, a celebration that simply… wasn’t.
Buca used to be good. I’ve heard it has gone bad through the years. We went in to give it a chance and see if it was as bad as they said. It is and much worst. Portions were still a lot but the prices were also way too much. The chicken was so dry it looked like it’s been in the freezer for awhile. I tried drowning it in its own pesto sauce but the pesto sauce was so thin and had no taste. The lasagna was huge chuck of dried out ricotta cheese. Savemart marinara sauce tasted way better. Save your money. Go somewhere else. McDonald’s chicken nuggets would have been a better choice.
