Great Italian restaurant

GREAT FAMILY RESTAURANT
Buca di Beppo in Claremont, California is a fantastic place for great food and a fun dining experience. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is lively, welcoming, and full of character. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home, whether you’re dining with family, friends, or a large group.

The food is consistently delicious and served in generous portions that are perfect for sharing. Everything comes out fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared, from the classic pasta dishes to the appetizers and desserts. Service is timely, and the team does a great job making sure everyone at the table is taken care of without feeling rushed.

What really makes this location stand out is the combination of great customer service, a fun environment, and reliable quality. It’s a perfect spot for celebrations, group dinners, or just a casual night out. Buca di Beppo in Claremont never disappoints, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for hearty Italian food and a great overall dining experience.

I went with a group of 5 adults and none of us really knew about this restaurant other than it’s Italian. We found that Buca served a single dish that feeds 2-3 people, or a BIG dish that served 5. If you order Fettuccine Alfredo that is all you get. Order bread, then it’s only bread, and so forth. You have to order everything separately, so come prepared.

We celebrated my friend’s retirement here during the intermezzo hours of 3 to 4 pm. We walked in and no one was there to greet us for a few minutes. The restaurant was empty. There was one other party. Not very festive. I had not visited this spot in about four years. So, I was wary of that.

PROS:
Friendly service from Red. She did an adequate job. Plates and silverware took a moment to get to us. Refills were infrequent, but present. Garlic cheese bread came out crispy and cheesy, but not very garlicky. The house bread arrived soft and warm with a decent quality olive oil. They dressed the gorgonzola and apple salad evenly, but needed more cheese. The world famous meatballs came out juicy, large, and pretty tasty. The marina sauce that accompanied it was good for dipping the garlic cheese bread. The spaghetti and meat possessed a rich and hearty flavor. The chicken cannoloni pasta seemed too firm and flavorless. The stuffed chicken with proscuitto won for best taste of the entrees. The crispy breaded breasts with salty proscuitto and mozzarella cheese with pesto sauce combined for a mouth watering flavor. Red made sure our cheesecake had the extra toasted hazelnuts which ended the meal nicely.

CONS:
The ambiance with so few diners really surprised me and brought down the celebratory and festive atmosphere. The guy taking pictures and selling them to our table did not add anything and maybe hindered our vibe. Maybe, offer to take our pic with our own phones first or second. The price seemed to not be there for the value. Which lowers it down a star for me.I get more food in the family style for less money at Maggiano’s which is where we will continue celebrating our special meals in an Italian setting

Formal Complaint Regarding Inappropriate Photographer Behavior

I am writing to formally complain about a deeply uncomfortable and unacceptable experience my family and I had at your restaurant.
During our visit, the in-house photographer made extremely inappropriate comments toward my two sisters. He stated that he wanted to take a picture of them and “hang it above his bed at night.” This comment was disturbing, unprofessional, and completely crossed any reasonable boundary. My sisters were made to feel uncomfortable and unsafe, and the rest of our group was shocked that such behavior would be tolerated in a family restaurant.

To help identify the individual, the photographer had long hair and spoke with an Italian accent. Regardless of who he is, this type of behavior should never occur in any customer-facing role. A restaurant environment should feel welcoming and respectful, not predatory or unsettling.

This incident significantly ruined what was supposed to be an enjoyable dining experience. I am extremely disappointed that no safeguards seemed to be in place to prevent or address this kind of conduct. I expect this matter to be taken seriously, investigated thoroughly, and addressed appropriately to ensure no other guests are subjected to similar treatment.

I would appreciate a response explaining what actions will be taken regarding this situation.
Sincerely,
Albert Ramirez

We waited 45 minutes to get drinks and our whole dinner took 2 hours on a Wednesday night. They were not busy, but blamed their service on it being busy. The table across from us were seated, got drinks, bread, appetizers and food before our food came out of the kitchen. The manager didn’t apologize or even acknowledge this was happening.

The first time here and service was on point, my family brought us here to celebrate two birthdays, and it was totally worth it. Food was memorable, delicious, and satisfying. Food was like family.

Lasagna, Chicken Parmesan, and pizza were my favorites, and the stuffed mushrooms are a must. My family will be back. There is so much more to try…

Lasagna was great and feeds up to 2 people for a small size. I love the fried calamari and they give large portions because they cater to family size. Minus one star only because It is fairly expensive here.

Image if you will, old school Italians along with lots of grandchildren tables lined up everyone sitting across from each other, were gathered for the celebration of life for my bonus dad. My bonus mom sitting at the head. 4 servers for 80+ all in one room. We’re not morning we’re celebrating. Knowing ahead of time the amount. From the beginning not everything came together small stuff butter not available when the bread was served, also missing olive oil, along with the balsamic. 1st world problems right. They took care of in a hot minute. They were immensely gracious, the food authentic. We were blessed beyond measure with their patience kindness and generosity in such a time of loss we were experiencing.
