Which restaurant do you prefer?

Want to give aunt/uncle a gift card for Xmas and I'm trying to decide between Buca Di Beppo and Bahamas Breeze? Which would you prefer?

Buca Di Beppo is a great restaurant for large groups of people. They do have a special for couples, but usually the more the merrier. It might be better to get them a gift card for Bahamas Breeze. Just a thought....

I like Buca, but Bahama Breeze is my all time favorite chain restaurant! That, and Maggiano's.

Bahama Breeze but then I'm biased. It's such a nice place.

Um, my vote goes for Buca Di Beppo - this is my favorite restaurant (even though there isn't one near me).

Hmmm, tough one, but I agree with the poster who said Buca is more "family style" type. Bahama Breeze, which we tried in Orland this past May was FABULOUS!!! I like them both, but would pick Bahama Breeze.

For a couple, I would choose Bahama Breeze. In my opinion, Buca is a better choice for a group.

Having said that, if Maggiano's is a possibility, that would be my first choice. Great atmosphere and excellent food!

Definitely Bahama Breeze! Do not like the other one at all.

If you think they would most likely be going out by themselves, Buca probably isn't the best choice unfortunately. I love that place but I wouldn't go there if it was just the 2 of us. If you think they have other folks to go with, then I think that would be fine.

I've never been to Bahama Breeze so can't comment on that. I have one near me. Can you guys tell me about it?

I've only been to Bahama Breeze, and was not impressed.

The food was not something I would ever return for, but they do make a great (if not a tad bit overpriced) cocktail!

Something like this might be a good solution

DH and I go to Buca all the time without a group. I always see couples in there. I vote Buca. I don't find the food nearly as good at Bahama Breeze.

Buca all the way. More my style of food. Both restaurants have a unique atmosphere!

The Buca I use to live by had a couple special. I love Buca, it gets my vote!
