We were a party of 6 and they seated us at a large square table inthe bar, so easy for us to talk and share tastes. They were very gracious, even though we arrived late. Everyone enjoyed their meals and the service was excellent. Sophia was the bartender/server and she was so helpful. All in all we highly recommend Bacchus, great food and great service.

Had a delicious meal last weekend. Started with escargot 🐌 😋 and then steak sans fries and had mashed potatoes instead. Husband had a salad and mussels with 🍟- his fries and mussels were delicious as well. A charming place —- feels like you’re in 🇫🇷 and not on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn. Lovely staff as well.

We’ve been to this restaurant a handful of times and this past visit was one of the best. The hospitality is unrivaled in the area and the food we enjoyed this go-around was so comforting it brought us back to our time in France. They are also incredibly family friendly (even when our newborn decided to make herself known!). Thank you again we can’t wait to come back.
