What reviewers say about Bucci's Italian Restaurant
People say this Italian restaurant serves delicious homemade pasta, lasagna, and eggplant parmesan. They highlight the generous portions, cozy atmosphere, and friendly staff. They also like the seasonal cannoli ice cream.
“An unforgettable first date and one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had. The atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. and our server was incredibly kind and attentive — she made us feel more like family than customers. We ordered calamari, chicken parmesan, and fettuccine alfredo, and it was all delicious. But what truly stood out was the genuine hospitality from the entire staff. Even as the restaurant was closing and we were the last ones dining, the staff encouraged us to take our time and enjoy the night. One of the owners also came out to check in with us, listened to our story (long distance/first time meeting) and wished us well. You can tell this is a place that values its guests and creates memorable dining experiences. We will definitely be back to visit. ❤️”
“It’s a fun place to go, but there was just something missing from the flavor profile. Pretty expensive too for the taste of it. My server was nice and it was nice and cozy, but it seems like the west side of Cleveland just doesn’t know how to do food right. The east side is better for some reason, I don’t know why. I purposely left my lasagna at the restaurant because I knew I wasn’t gonna eat it as leftovers, even though it was expensive too. I wish I could’ve had a better experience, but I didn’t. I went in with very high hopes too!”
“This is my favorite italian restaurant on the west side. It doesn't get more authentic than this.And plus the portion sizes are huge, the food has stayed consistent for years, and it still tastes like it does from when I was a kid, they have kept the same secret family recipes for many years.It is just the best! Even the carry out tastes just as good as if you ate inside the restaurant they use expensive containers and everything stays sealed and fresh. Amazing bread too.”
