Buca Di Beppo Houston Speedway

We went for Mother’s Day. Everyone I talked to raved about the place. This being my first experience I was excited. There was decent parking and we got right in and they accommodated 2 last minute additions to our party. Unfortunately that’s where the good news stopped. After that everything else was subpar at best. Wait staff wasn’t very attentive. There was only a handful of occupied tables in our section (3 of 6) and they were a 4 top, 6 top, and our 8 top. The waiter took for ever to get drinks delivered. Food came out inconsistent. Our chicken park cutlets we’re just above room temp almost touching cold in some spots, everyone else’s food seemed hot that came to our table… food was staggered in the delivery spanning 10 or so minutes. I was expecting better quality on the chicken park considering 3 cutlets with no pasta is pushing $30 for the order. The waiter misheard our appetizer order and tried to bring us the wrong thing even after we got our mains and we’re packing up to leave. He didn’t take the mistake off of the check before bringing it. When brought to his attention he took the ticket and said he would fix it, came back to our section 10 minutes later picked up the other check at our table and the check at the table next to us. Approximately 5-10 minutes after that he brought back the check that the other parties paid and finally brought me my adjusted check. Took him another 7 minutes to bring me my copy to sign. So took a solid 20-25 minutes just get pay and get out. I won’t be coming back because for the price of everything and the quality of food and service… it just seemed way over rated.

We went for Mother's Day and had great service and food.

I really loved the experience! The portions are big so we were able to share. Works out because I never finish food myself haha. But I loved the food and just the style of the restaurant.

Portions are large. Very nice place with different themed tables and corners.

Daughter’s birthday. Called it out in the reservation and To the waiter. No extra effort, no little birthday surprise, just nothing. $10 for Garlic bread? Chicken Parm was meh, the pasta was over cooked and the Booth where we were seated was broken.
