If you have a large group and like to share food, this is a great place to go that won't break the bank. Great atmosphere with lots of big tables and rooms to accommodate large groups. Homey atmosphere with cool old pictures hanging on the wall. Friendly staff.
Most dishes are between $19-26 which serve 3-5 people so you only need a few dishes for a large group. The food is good, not great. But, definitely worth a visit.
Food was very good with a big menu to choose from. Every staff member we dealt with was extremely friendly and accommodating. Be aware that the food is served family style and even small portions are meant to be shared between multiple people. The Venetian Long Island iced tea is highly recommended.
We had the pleasure of sitting at the Kitchen Table, and if it's something you have never done, I would highly recommend it. We had a blast with the staff, and watching the way the food is prepared was amazing. When we got there, they we're serving a party of 55! The trays of food that they we're taking out we're huge. The food was phenomenal, the sangria was amazing, but the service and the staff just made our experience one of the best nights we have had while we were here in San Diego. We will definitely be coming back!!
Been craving for Italian cuisine and this restaurant is the 1st we saw here on Google. Our server Andrea made our first time experience incredible . Me and my husband ordered small servings of Ceasar salad, fried mozarella, margherita pizza and lasagña , and oh boy they said small but the servings were hugeeeeee. the food is great, the server was awesome, we were having the best gastronomical experience. must try in San Diego. Look at our photos for HUGE evidence. Thank you Andrea for taking care of us!
This place is great, the food is delicious, we order spicy arrabbiata pizza and wings, they were very tasty, the attention from Rudy was good he was very kind.
Atmosphere was divine! Restrooms were super clean which is always a plus! The staff was very attentive and I could not recommend eating here more.
It was great to be back at Buca Downtown San Diego. Our Server Lisa was really friendly, and kind. She really made sure we felt good to be back. Excelent customer service. Food was fresh and delicious
I highly recommend taking your family or a group of friends out to eat here. One entree can feed 6 people. Plenty of food and it's well worth it if you go in a big group. Each entree is around $25-35. Ordered the trio platter, and two entrees (eggplant parmagama and stuff chicken) and it was delicious. We had plenty of left overs to take home. The staff was attentive and were nice to us. Huge thank you to the staff for singing Happy Birthday to our friend and making this a memorable birthday celebration 🎂
Great place for family dinners and great food. My son loved the kids pizza and we had great time celebrating grandma birthday. Great service and great atmosphere. Love to come back and do it again. Just remember the food is large portions and little on expense side. But I will still return here
Valentine’s dinner here with my love.. food was pretty good.. service was top notch.. Rudy and Josh A.took really good care of us.. only 1 thumbs down is wish they would of told us about the Valentine’s dinner special that we saw online here once we got home.. it was pretty much the same dinner that we ordered..other then that we will be back.. 👍
Absolutely delicious. Great prices,however, its important to know that meals are made to be shared. For example, on the menu you have the option of ordering a small or large. The small serving 3 people and the large serving 5. They have booths or tables available. I recommend making a reservation. The pizza is very tasty. Service is spectacular.

This is my first Buca di Beppo experience and I'm glad to make that first visit to this Italian American franchise in San Diego. I'm originally from Brooklyn with a strong Italian American heritage. I judge my eating experience to three basic categories: atmosphere, price and quality of food. The ambiance is great. The decor, furniture and listening to old standard music while eating is classic. The quality of food is good. The pasta was cooked at the right time and the sauce is not too acidic or sweet. The salad I ordered is great. I love the soaked Italian dressing. It reminds me of the way old school Italians would do it. The prices for the lunch menu is reasonable and recommend taking a large group for order sharing. I recommend this place for anyone with an appetite. Please watch the video to get the feeling of that old school Italian vibe. The vibe I used to get when I walk in a home with personal pictures all over the wall and home cooked Italian meals. ENJOY this place Google readers!
Great Atmosphere with the best service ! My order was 10 minutes late and our server NINA offered us a complementary wines. To be honest the wine made our experience 3 times better. Thanks to the management and Nina.
The service was great. The food was amazing!! I believe our servers name was Erica; she was attentive, professional, and polite. Since the food is served family style the price is fair. The atmosphere is exactly what I expect from Bucca. I was not disappointed in any aspect.
Good food. All the dishes come in family size, needs to be shared in at least 3 people.
Reasonably priced for the quantity. Nice ambience with pictures from around Italy.
