   What a wonderful dinner we had last night! The service was fantastic as was the food! My wife had the Papparadelle and I had the Swordfish Oreganato. Both were amazing. Also the Hearts of Palm salad (which we shared) was excellent. The atmosphere certainly gives you the vibes of Italy and the decor is beautiful. A 5 Star experience for sure!

   Wonderful local establishment. The entire staff is experience, helpful and extremely professional. Phil guided us through each phase of our meal and made our time at Baci so enjoyable. Would go back again and again. Hard to find a gem like this.

   Baci was an amazing experience for my 4th anniversary. The staff was phenomenal and always made sure we were taken care of as a collective. Our server Brian was a true master of his craft with his knowledge of the menu and his amazing personality. We were also given a free Tiramisu with a little candle to celebrate our anniversary which my wife is still raving about. As someone who has lived in Italy twice I honestly felt at home, because every dish from bread to salad to main courses was EXCEPTIONAL. Give Baci a try, I can assure you that you’ll not be disappointed!

   Yelp should be shamed because when searching Italian food on yelp and this restaurant doesn’t shows on the top list. One of the best Italian restaurants I ever had!!!!! I will keep coming back to it every time I visit San Diego now

   The staff is very good--always nearby if you need them but not hovering and intrusive. Appetizers are very generous and filling. Pasta dishes were good but not particularly outstanding but the Chilean Sea Bass was excellent. Lovely desert given to birthday girl. Ambience is also very good, quiet smallish rooms. It was a cool night, but a peek into the outdoor patio revealed a beautiful spot. Next time I will be sure to reserve a table outdoors if the weather is warm enough. Only negative: parking is difficult in this area as there are several other restaurants nearby and not much street parking.

   We had a lovely dinner last night at Baci. Adam was our waiter and he was very knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. The food was all delicious and so well done. We enjoyed a small caesar salad and the prosciutto-wrapped burrata, which was delicious and a creative presentation. The beets were a yummy edition that I must add to my burrata from now on! We enjoyed the lamb ragu pappardelle and the Chilean sea bass for entrees. The pasta was delicious and savory, and the sea bass was cooked to perfection - soft and delicate. With an awesome bottle of wine and some yummy pistachio ice cream for dessert, this was a memorable meal. We will be back to try more things on the menu!

    My father-in-law loves old school Italian places. This place hit the spot with two great fish specials, good pasta and good old school chicken Parm.
