In honor of our granddaughter’s High School graduation, our Columbus Ohio family got together at one of the many Buca di Beppo Italian restaurants. These restaurants are perfect for a large group celebration, as they are known for serving “family style”.
Enjoying time with family
Once you enter the establishment you immediately get into the “Italian” mood. The decor is one of those styles that uses every square inch of wall space, and in some rooms every inch of the ceiling!

Have dinner with the Pope
The menu has over 60 items from which to choose. The large bowls feed 6, while the small size is designed for 3. It is wonderful being able to decide which entrees, appetizers and salads to order. You can truly customize your meals, and with the family style serving, everyone can have a taste of whatever they like.
Apple Gorgonzola: Granny Smith apples, spiced walnuts, dried cranberries & Gorgonzola tossed with mixed lettuce in our signature Italian vinaigrette
Chicken with baby portobello mushrooms in a traditional Marsala wine reduction
The food was delicious, served on time and hot! The bowls were full and gave everyone the chance to try all of the varieties.
Shrimp Fra Diavolo: Garlic shrimp & crushed red pepper with penne in spicy rosa sauce
Cheese Manicotti: pasta tubes filled with ricotta, mozzarella & Parmesan with Alfredo & our homemade marinara sauce
This restaurant was a perfect place to have a graduation celebration. You cannot beat good food at a comfortable restaurant, and of course having your family is the best blessing of all!

Congratz on her for surviving! Education can be rough. The restaurant is amazing – used to have one near me, loved their food. The Pope kinda always creeped me out though – he spins with the table. That table was not for me lol

Thanks!. Also it sounds like they might have a Pope at each of the restaurants if you saw one too.
