" I had mixed feelings about my meal. The ambiance is very inviting, but I felt the food didn't really live up to the hype. I tried the penne arrabbiata, and while it had a nice kick, the pasta was a bit overcooked. The service could be improved as our waiter seemed overwhelmed, resulting in slower service than expected. Would I return? Possibly, since I’ve heard good things about their pizza. " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! Just wow! I never expected to find such amazing Italian food so close to the U of A! The garlic bread was fantastic as an appetizer, and the pizza was beautifully crafted with fresh ingredients. The only complaint I might have is how busy it gets, which is a good sign of popularity! Service was fast despite the rush. I can’t wait to come back tomorrow! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bacio is fantastic! The ambiance was delightful, and our food was of the highest quality. I tried the salmon, which was perfectly cooked, and my partner had a superb osso buco. The service was prompt and friendly. Prices are slightly higher, but absolutely worth it for what you get. It's quickly becoming my favorite restaurant in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a beautiful restaurant! From the decor to the soft lighting, Bacio creates an excellent ambiance for enjoying a meal. I stopped by on a rainy day, and the warm atmosphere was delightful. I had the shrimp scampi which was bursting with flavor, each bite made me smile! The service was quick, though I felt slightly rushed. Apparently, their pizza is phenomenal, so I will definitely come back for that. Highly recommend for anyone in the mood for authentic Italian! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really excited to visit Bacio based on the online reviews, but my experience fell short. The service was incredibly slow, and I had to flag down our waiter multiple times. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, which tasted a bit bland. The ambiance was nice, and I appreciated the decor; it was a charming spot. I might give it another chance, but I hope for an improved service next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I visited Bacio Italiano last weekend, and it exceeded our expectations! The ambiance was lively yet comfortable, great for catching up. We shared a few appetizers including the arancini which were crispy and flavorful. I personally had the fettuccine alfredo, and while it wasn't as creamy as I've liked, it had a lovely taste and texture. The only downside was the wait time for our food, but it was worth it. I would definitely return again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wasn’t impressed with my last visit. The food was decent but not what it used to be. The ambiance is still nice and welcoming; sadly, the service wasn’t great. Our server was slow, and the food didn't come out hot. It’s sad to see a once great restaurant slip a bit. May try again in the future but not at the top of my list currently. " (*Curated Review*)
