    Baci’s specializes in catering! We specialize in drop off and full service catering. Please contact us to discuss your catering theme and we will be happy to plan your event. We require a minimum order of $100 for catering. Catering prices mostly based on entree size portions. Pricing will be lower in many cases if ordering is made in the form of platters and chaffers. For example, our pasta and salads are priced as entrees. We can cut both prices per person if you order on platters and chaffers because each plated food portion would be less than ordering Ala carte.
  • Private party facilities

Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Baci Bistro and Bar is a delightful Italian gem known for its "delicious food" and "excellent service." Guests rave about the "Jumbo Prawn Scampi," "lamb shank," and "Beef Stroganoff." While the ambiance is lively, it may get noisy during peak times. Outdoor seating provides a pleasant alternative. Perfect for both special occasions and casual dining.

    This was our second time eating at Baci. The first time, there was a private event in the main dining room, so we were seated in the tea room next door. It was fine, but we opted to eat in the main dining room this time. First of all, the main dining room is loud! They warned us that the table was tight and we were right against the bar. So if you aren't in the mood for loud, opt to eat next door at the Tea Room. The ambiance is very different in the Tea Room (if you don't mind pink flowers everywhere 🤣). The food both times was very good, albeit pricey. Dinner starts with a delicious bread basket. Both times I visited, I ate the Jumbo Prawn Scampi on Angel Hair pasta, which was hot, delicious, and had a bit of spice, which I liked. I also had the Roasted Beet Salad with Goat Cheese, which was delicious. My husband got the Ribeye Steak and opted for mashed potatoes instead of the Parmesan fries. The steak was good, but he was a tad disappointed in the mashed potatoes, which he said could have used more salt. I also had a glass of the Justin Cabernet. We did not have dessert, and the tab came to $124. So when all is said and done, about $60/person.

    First time visit and was very impressed. I had the fried shrimp club sandwich and it was delicious. Looking forward to returning when it’s nice enough to sit outside.

    Most horrible experience at this restaurant. Ordered steak and rack of lambs - both medium done. They served rare. We asked them to redo and bring well done. They brought half portions and still medium rare. Told them that they brought half portions but they insisted it was the full portions. We left the place without eating. Paid in full though. Customer service was pathetic. They did not even care to make it right. Never going back there again. Not recommended. Their review was not that good on Yelp. We still took our chance, only to receive first hand poor service and food. Bad choice.
