Buca di Beppo makes feeding large groups simple with family-style meal packages designed for 20 or more guests. Each menu offers your favorite Italian classics—giant bowls of pasta, crispy fried mozzarella, hearty chicken and eggplant parmesan, and fresh green salads are all meant to be shared around the table. Everyone gets seconds, so there’s never a worry about leaving hungry. Soft drinks, coffee, and tea are included to keep your group refreshed throughout the meal, and our dessert platters with chocolate cake, tiramisu, or mini cannoli are always a highlight.

Our seasoned event planners at Buca know how to keep things efficient, so you can focus on sightseeing rather than meal logistics. Large groups are seated together and served quickly, helping you maximize your time at neighboring attractions such as The Wizarding World of Harry Potter or Universal Citywalk’s vibrant shops and entertainment.
