" As a lover of authentic Italian cuisine, I must say that Baci Bistro is quite impressive. The rich flavors and fresh ingredients reflect a true Italian touch. On my last visit, I had the octopus appetizers, which were excellent. The staff was so friendly and accommodating, enhancing the overall experience. If you appreciate quality food, this is a place you should try without hesitation. The only downside was the slight wait time because of how packed the restaurant was, especially on weekends, but the food is worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" My visit to Baci was quite a treat! The rich, authentic flavors of their risotto stood out to me, and the service was attentive, with staff making sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere is cozy, making it a delightful location for dinner. One note is that the pricing is on the higher side, but I felt the quality justified the cost. I left feeling satisfied, and I’ll definitely return for another meal soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience was good, but I found the paella bland compared to others I've had. There was nothing particularly memorable about the service either—friendly but nothing that made them stand out. While the restaurant had a nice vibe, I was expecting something a bit more spectacular given the price point. " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I decided to try Baci for our anniversary dinner, and we were not disappointed! The atmosphere was perfect for a romantic night out. I ordered the lamb shank, which absolutely fell off the bone, and my husband loved the risotto. The service staff was great, attentive without being intrusive. We appreciated the warm bread they brought us at the start—the perfect way to whet our appetite. " (*Curated Review*)

" A lovely restaurant with a great vibe! I had the lamb shank which was divine! Melted in my mouth! The service was very friendly and efficient, ensuring we felt welcome. I would highly recommend it for a delightful dinner experience. I'll be coming back for their famous dessert next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Baci Bistro is a hidden gem in downtown Pleasanton! The moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm atmosphere and friendly faces. I opted for the lobster ravioli, which was superbly made, and the squid ink pasta was a delightful surprise. The service was impeccable—our waiter was attentive and gave great recommendations. This place feels authentically Italian, and I can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)
