" I was not pleased with my experience at Baci Bistro. The pasta I ordered was undercooked and not very flavorful. The service was decent, but I found the staff lacking in knowledge about the wine pairings. The ambiance was nice, but the food truly disappointed me, and I left feeling unsatisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Baci Bistro for the first time last night! I was immediately taken by the beautiful setting but even more impressed by the quality of the food. I ordered crab cakes and beef stroganoff, both of which tasted divine. I also loved the house wine, it was a great pairing with my meal. The service was friendly and attentive. There was a slight hiccup waiting for our dessert, but it was well worth the wait! I am looking forward to my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
