The food was on point with any other Buca di Beppo location. Not overly sauced pasta, hefty hefty portion. And the chicken in the chicken Alfredo was cooked to near perfection. $45 for a heaping bowl that can feed a family of 6 easily is a pretty decent deal when in Vegas. The di Beppo 1893 salad however for $25 is a rip off.
why 2 stars for good food then? The service was bad. We were quickly seated but it took the waiter well over 15 minutes to greet us. Quick and friendly was his greeting when he finally did arrive. But once the food was dropped off by the food runner we didn't see him again during the meal, having to ask for refills from other servers. The guy that came to refill our waters, I asked him if I can place an order of bread with him but he said he'll get the waiter. Who never came. When we finished our meal the waiter shows up with the check (never asking who our meal was). We asked for boxes and that took an additional 15 minutes to bring out even though there was only two other tables in his section. Instead of getting us boxes and closing out our tab he was cleaning other tables and doing side work.
Good food. Not so good service.
