Recently went with a large group of about 23 for a birthday celebration. We were able to use back room. Ordered from their lunch menu. Prices were very reasonable, good size food portions and my meal of Chicken Alfredo tasted great. It even came with a side salad. Staff friendly and got our orders correct. Would recommend this place for other c

The strip mall type location does not properly show off the level the dining experience at Spaggi's. The atmosphere is very nice and the presentation is great! The food is great although like most nicer restaurants the portions are a little on the small side! All in all a great dining experience!

Large portions and kind of pricey. I got the pesto tortellini and was disappointed that it wasn't served aldente.... kinda mushy for my taste. The large salad was ok and the side ceasre salad was good. Michael the waitress was young, (couldn't serve a beer), but was pleasant and checked in on us often. Perfect day to sit outside. Will just know to get something other than pasta if we return.

I love all the food here....fresh, organic, gourmet and made with love and taste! Really uncommon for a hotel restaurant that typically serves âbarâ food. Food, service, view, decor and location is so great that you wonât need to drive anywhere else! The decor and exterior terrace are amazing, perfect central location. Iâd rather drive in LA and stay here than stay close to work and eat âbarâ food. Thanks Mike for great bar service and Jessica for welcoming conversation!

Bucca is a family style restaurant with Italian standards. We were at this venue for a Birthday party, and had reservations which I recommend. Six of us went right in, and found it crowded and very, very noisy with many other parties and families jammed in with just a little room here and there. OK. Sort of expected this. We started with one bar drink, other drink items and some Fried Mac'N Cheese, basically balls of fried mac'n cheese. This was followed with Chicken Limone---one 3 ounce piece for each of us---Spaghetti with three meatballs---which we cut in half for about 3 ounces of meatball for each---and a side of Baby Portobello Mushroom Risotto-- this was interesting because our guests were gushing about it being risotto. What my wife and I noticed right away was the rice they used. It did not appear to be the traditional risotto rices of Carnaroli, Arborio, or Vialone Nano. We were guessing a less expensive long grain rice like basmati or jasmine, and the "baby portobello mushrooms"...well again...not sure....they looked more like button mushrooms but may have been cremini, just couldn't tell because of the sauce and parmesan sticking everything together. Well, OK. Being a bit picky about the description on the menu. We did have a giant oversize Colossal Brownie Sundae which is why many go there on special occasions. It did look nice and was tasty. Here is main opinion as I bring this plane in for a landing. Our guests were using a 20% off coupon. The birthday dessert was thrown in and included an obligatory Birthday song by staff nobody could understand. Someone was coming around doing photos of groups for sale so we will not include this in the discussion or bill. My wife and I split the bill 3 ways. My share for this soiree was over $80 dollars for basically spaghetti, a sliver of chicken, some rice, and a fried mac'n cheese ball. YIKES! Given the noise level, food quality, and such, I'm just not sure about Bucca again. But my friends chose it, and they liked it, so there you go.Thank you, Daniel M, for choosing to dine with us at Buca di Beppo.

Always a delicious lunch. Pastas are delicious, and al dente, so they stick to the teeth, slightly harder than typical mushy pasta, which is authentic.Salads delightful, with tangy house dressing. Round bread with warm tomato topping.Full bar, and tiny but clean bathrooms. Friendly servers who do all they can to make your lunch fantastic.

We have been here a few times over the past couple of times. The table service and food have on every occasion been superb. This time round we were a little taken aback by the definitely frosty reception. On entering the restaurant 10 minutes early for a 6.30 reservation we saw three hostesses. After a short while one of them snapped âdo you have a reservationâ? The tone was not at all welcoming and not at all what we expected. We were promptly seated and the service provided at the table was absolutely excellent.We were close enough to the front of house to see that we were not the only people getting this reception. Perhaps some training would be an idea as, otherwise, the staff are outstanding and the evening was perfect.

From the sign at the road, to the counter, to the wobbly stools, this reminded me of restaurants when I was a kid. The servers were so friendly, the food was so good. I was by myself and sat at the counter. Many folks ordering take-out and you could tell that most of them had done this many times before. Great experience!

Been eating at Warehouse Pizza for 20+ years and aside from the beer selection and video games, nothing has changed. All food I've had here is very good even the sandwiches and pasta, but you SHOULD be ordering their pizza. Good quality ingredients, their dough gets cooked perfectly but not too thick. Good selection of craft beers, ample indoor and outdoor seating and a ton of locals. And yes, have a salad with their famous ranch dressing. Be Prepared to pay cash, they have an ATM inside.
