Buca di Beppo

Buca di Beppo is an American restaurant chain specializing in Italian-American food. The name roughly translates as "Joe's Hole" from Italian (buca, which literally means "hole" or "pit", can be a dialectal word in Tuscany for basement or cellar, and Beppo is a rare spelling of the nickname of Giuseppe). The chain of 70 (65 company-owned, 5 franchises in UK) establishments is owned by Buca, Inc., which in turn is owned by Planet Hollywood.
The chain is known for its vintage photographs hung closely spaced throughout the restaurant. Restrooms feature recorded ambient sounds — women laughing and conversing in Italian in the men's room and vice versa in the women's room.
