Editorial Review for Buca di Beppo – by Saira Masood
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. Dishes center on Southern Italian immigrant fare, and are meant to be shared family-style with a large goblet of wine-to enhance the taste, of course. The ornate décor with walls covered in vintage photos evokes a warm homey feel that welcomes customers to dine among the other families and loyal customers. Buon Appetito!

We have lunch or dinner occasionally at Buca de Bepo at the Florida Mall, and have never been disappointed by the quality and quantity. It is old Italian cooking, family style. the portions are normally for two people but they have single portions at lunch. I love veal marsala which used to be on the menu but was not a big seller. However, they can still make it for you because they use veal for other dishes and sell chicken marsala. The prices are competitive with other local restaurants of lesser quality.
Pros: Very old Italy, Catholic ambience
Cons: Florida Mall does not have sufficient signs in the Mall directing you to Buca de Beppo

Ate there for the first time last night and everything was outstanding! The garlic bread with mozzarella is a must as is the pan fried fresh mozzarella! The atmosphere is a bit loud and overwhelming, but fun! Good place to take the kids without worrying about them keeping quiet.
Pros: great food, good service, fun!
Cons: , sides are a la carte
