    As regular diners at Bacco Italian and Wine Bar, we’ve always enjoyed the food and service, but our most recent experience was deeply disappointing and far below the standards we’ve come to expect. Our 6:45 pm reservation quickly went south when it took over 15 minutes for our children’s drinks and bread to arrive — they weren’t served until 7:15 pm. While our server, Paul (who has served us before) did acknowledge the delay, the restaurant was surprisingly quiet for a Saturday night, making the lack of attentiveness hard to justify. I was surprised Paul failed to make time for our table and didn’t even serve our meals himself — food runners brought them out instead. For such a quiet evening, it was baffling that Paul couldn’t manage his own tables, as waitstaff typically prefer to serve their own guests when possible. The food was equally underwhelming. Bacco is known for its vodka pasta, but all of our pasta dishes were overcooked to the point of being mushy, which was shocking. My veal parmigiana was another letdown — the pieces were so thick that one resembled a chicken tender. It was baffling that the kitchen allowed such poorly prepared food to be served. The only bright spot was my wife’s seafood entrée, which was well-cooked and flavorful, but one decent dish out of four isn’t enough to justify the $165 we spent. This was not the Bacco we know and have supported for years. The combination of slow service and poor food quality has left us questioning whether we’ll return anytime soon. If Bacco wants to maintain its loyal customer base, it needs to address these issues in both the kitchen and the front of the house. Overall, the experience felt like a failure from start to finish.

    Server was great. Food and drink were really good. Very pretty inside and outside for the holiday season. Would go again.

    Went to celebrate our anniversary. Really enjoyed the atmosphere. Prices were a bit high for what you get but that’s everywhere. Could have used some Italian music to compliment the beautiful surroundings.

    A hopping Wednesday at Bacco. Even with large holiday parties the food and service were excellent! Servers Tori and Hannah were great, and then along came Susan and Chelsee, also excellent! But wait one do NOT forget about Mona and Becca! 5 stars! Bravo Bacco!

    Bacco just keeps doing great… their misto board and lasagna are both buono! Try a half price bottle of wine if you’re here on Wednesday. Servers Emma and Mona are both terrific! Always fun at Bacco!

    Our waitress was very friendly and professional. The food was well prepared and served quickly. Since it was our anniversary, we received a free glass of champagne.
