" Despite a few hiccups on my first visit to Bacchus, I left feeling positive. The atmosphere is definitely the highlight, being cozy and welcoming. I ordered the lasagna, and while it was tasty, it wasn’t the best I’ve had. The portion was sizable, which I appreciate, but I felt it could have used more flavor. Service was average; my waiter was amiable, yet he seemed a bit overwhelmed with the evening rush. All in all, I would consider returning based on the recommendation of others and hoping for that five-star experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bacchus is a quaint little Italian spot that absolutely deserves a visit. I was pleasantly surprised by how kind and knowledgeable our waiter was. We tried the burrata for starters, and it was heavenly. For the main course, I went with the chicken marsala, which was lovely, although I would have preferred a bit more sauce. The atmosphere is cozy, with beautiful decor that adds to the experience. I would recommend this place to anyone who enjoys decent Italian food and good service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bacchus has quickly become my favorite Italian place! The atmosphere feels warm and inviting, perfect for date night. I appreciated the attention to detail in the decor. Every dish I've tried has been on point. Recently, I tried the lobster ravioli, and it was superb! The portion sizes are large, making it excellent value for the quality. Service was friendly too. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Bacchus recently with high expectations and was hoping to leave with a sparkle in my heart. The restaurant certainly has a lovely aesthetic, warm and inviting just as I imagined. However, I found the food to be a tad inconsistent. My risotto was so creamy and flavorful, yet my partner’s dish didn’t measure up at all. Service was attentive but seemed overworked due to the crowd. I am torn because I loved the atmosphere but felt let down by the food’s inconsistency. I may, however, give it another shot to see how it fares next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Bacchus might just be the best Italian spot in Richmond! From the moment you step in, the ambiance is warm and inviting, making you feel like you're in Italy. The food was absolutely top-notch. I went with the traditional lasagna, and it was loaded with authentic flavors. The portion size was large enough for leftovers, and the price was fair considering the quality. The staff was friendly, ensuring all our needs were met. I cannot praise this place enough, and I will absolutely be back soon to explore more of the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Bacchus after reading such rave reviews, but my experience was a mixed bag. The place was bustling, which added to the atmosphere, but the wait for food seemed longer than expected. The pasta I chose was quite good, and I loved the generous serving size. However, my friend's dish was underwhelming and lacked seasoning. The service staff was friendly but seemed rushed. I would give it another shot because of the overall vibe and some excellent dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been frequenting Bacchus for years, and I always leave satisfied! The atmosphere reminds me of being in a rustic Italian home. I usually stick to their pasta specials because they’re incredible! On my last visit, I had the wild mushroom ravioli, and it was beyond delicious! My friends tried different dishes and were equally impressed. I didn’t notice any service issues, everyone was attentive and friendly. I can’t wait to go back again soon! " (*Curated Review*)
