    I love the menu - diverse - whatever you are in the mood for they will have. I had the Chop salad with chicken and avocado - so good!

    Service was great and food was delicious. We had the risotto balls and calamari for apps and jambalaya and eggplant parm for dinner. Lots of great options here.

    The service and food are always excellent here. Plus being able to sit outside in March with the cozy heat lamps is an added treat

    First time but not the last at Baci's. The food, presentation and service was excellent. We had a wonderful evening. Very extensive menu and wine list. The only problem was trying to decide which one of the items I wanted.

    The Music from the speakers is too loud! Even after we asked for it to be reduced it was just raised again. This is a restaurant not a club.

    Good food but the fish was a little fishy. Not given any option during reservation to select indoors vs. Patio and told on arrival that we had a patio reservation because indoors was full, not cool. Wait staff was great but not the most attentive. Food/wine was generally overpriced. Still had a great night and would go back again but be more selective about menu choices and expectations, also more explicit with reservation to avoid disappointment.
