Although most of our dishes were satisfactory, one item was completely different from what was listed on the menu and did not improve much even after being sent back to the kitchen. The service was also lacking, with multiple staff members approaching our table to take our order. Our primary waiter seemed overwhelmed and distracted throughout the meal, forgetting items and appearing to wander aimlessly around the restaurant instead of attending to our table and others he was serving. Overall, we were very disappointed and have no desire to return to this establishment.

The menu items ran out, not the server's fault, but she kept asking for refills, and she didn't even consider whether we wanted a dessert.

It was the perfect place for the last night of our vacation. We come back every year and don't eat dinner until the last evening of our trip at Tucci Benucch. It has become a family tradition. We love the breadsticks with delicious olive oil, the wine prices are reasonable and there are Italian wines on the list. The food is delicious and the portions are large. Our server was really great too!
