" This is my go-to place whenever I am near Lincoln Park. The love for local food shines through their menu! While there are only a few options, I've found the quality to be consistent. Their bruschetta is a must-try! It’s nostalgic of my travels to Italy. Just a couple of downsides: service can slow down during peak times, and sometimes I've had to wait a bit longer than ideal, but overall, the experience is worth it due to the authentic vibe. " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for an outdoor dining option with good vibes, Bacino's is it! I loved my veggie burger, such a great vegetarian option compared to other places. The atmosphere was buzzing with laughter, and the staff were responsive. Definitely a place to return after golf. Enjoyed my time! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been going to Bacino’s since it’s opened. Extremely friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere! The food is reasonable, but sometimes it hits or misses. I love their garlic bread and meatball subs. It might take a while on a busy day, but I believe that adds to the charm. Definitely a place to take friends and family! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Bacino's last week for a quick bite while wandering in Lincoln Park. The ambiance is charming and laid-back, perfect for families and casual get-togethers. However, I was a bit let down by the margherita pizza; it was a tad bland for my taste. On a positive note, the staff were welcoming and eager to help, which made the visit pleasant overall. Still, I think I'll try somewhere else next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a great surprise! I went in for a quick grab-and-go meal. The portobello burger was stunning, full of flavor and worth coming back for. The staff was friendly, and I appreciate how dog-friendly the place is, too. I think this could be a regular stop for lunch on sunny days! Can't recommend enough. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a rather disappointing experience at Bacino’s. The food was average, and we had to flag down our waiter multiple times. The outdoor setting is nice, but it can't make up for the mediocre food. I wouldn’t consider returning at this time; however, I would recommend others to try it for themselves. " (*Curated Review*)

" Sadly, my expectation wasn’t met. The food was typical and lacked authentic Italian flavor, plus I experienced a long wait which wasn’t appreciated. I love the concept of outdoor seating, but I feel they need to step up their food quality to match their beautiful location. I am unsure if I will return. " (*Curated Review*)
