An Unforgettable Birthday Celebration at Baci’s!

We’d been wanting to visit Baci’s for ages, and finally decided to celebrate my birthday here on Valentine’s Day – what a perfect choice! Tip: Make reservations! This place gets really busy, especially on special occasions.

From the moment we walked in, we were impressed. The Valentine’s Day decor was beautiful and really added to the romantic atmosphere. The staff was incredibly efficient and friendly, and our waiter Kevin was absolutely fantastic and gracious throughout the evening.

Appetizers:
We started with the Golden Beet Salad (with goat cheese, toasted almonds, and honey balsamic dressing) and the Crispy Sweet Chili Prawns. The prawns were amazing – they came with a Fiji apple coleslaw and pomegranate sauce, and the combination was simply heavenly!

Entrees:
The Lamb Rack came with four beautifully cooked lamb chops, mashed potatoes, spinach, and pomegranate sauce – really delicious. We also tried the Chicken Milano, which was incredible. The combination of artichoke, sun-dried tomato, asparagus, shallots, linguini, basil, garlic, parmesan, parsley, and white wine lemon sauce was perfection on a plate.

Desserts:
We couldn’t resist ordering both the Molten Chocolate Cake with vanilla ice cream and the Warm Bread Pudding with ice cream. Both were fantastic and the perfect end to our meal.

The vibe at Baci’s is lively and festive – it can get loud, but that just adds to the fun atmosphere. If you’re looking for a great place to celebrate with friends or that special someone, Baci’s is definitely worth a visit. We’ll be back!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We had lunch with friends. Love the atmosphere & service. We ordered Two hamburgers, chicken sandwich & Ahi Tuna.
I’m a foodie however tried the burger, probably not what is their specialty. I ordered it medium it was a bit overcooked & seemed the cook “smashed” the patty to cook faster as there was no “juice” in the burger. The bun was pretzel & was good but a bit thick. I had fires friend had salad. The chicken sandwich was good but lacked moisture & flavor. She compared to other chicken sandwiches she’s had in the past. The ahi did get a good review said it was different from others she’s had. We will return when next in the area and try something more to their specialty.

As humans, we have at least the four basic necessities to live: breathe, eat, sleep and use the restroom. I came across this restaurant the other night, Sunday, August 3rd – to request the use of their facilities, but since I indicated that I was not dining there, I was curtly denied access. A restaurant that serves food, but yet denies an individual access to answer the call of nature is not an establishment that I would patronize. Therefore, my friends and I decided to eat across the street at Hap’s. And Hap’s Original Steaks and Seafood did not disappoint. The food was divine and the service top notch! I recommend that one patronizes a restaurant that treats you with respect and dignity – and that is at Hap’s Steak and Seafood – NOT at Baci.
And I just read their prior reviews – this restaurant has a history of failed service. Lol….it is a wonder they are still operating as a restaurant.

Went here for a birthday party. We ordered from the list of food from the celebrant’s favorites. Appetizer- Mango salsa bruschetta, sweet chili prawns, and arancini fried risotto balls. Salad – Caesar and baci mixed green salad. Main course- New York steak and slow roasted lamb shank. Dessert – exotic bomba, turtle cheesecake, tiramisu, and creme brulee bread pudding. Everything is flavorful and cooked to perfection.

This charming restaurant is nestled in the heart of downtown Pleasanton. During our recent visit after many years, we had a mixed experience. The standout feature was the exceptional service and hospitality provided by the staff, who graciously assisted us in navigating the menu. They even offered to split our plates in the kitchen for an additional $3 charge, which was a nice touch. The restaurant boasts an impressive wine collection, and I highly recommend wines from ‘Prisoner.’ However, our dining experience took a downturn with the food. We ordered a well-done steak, but it arrived overcooked and dry, making it inedible. Despite this, we plan to give this place another try. For now, I’m reducing my rating by 2 stars due to the food mishap

We were in the area as a team for work and went to Baci for dinner. It’s typical of this area that prices are above average and Baci is no exception. However, we really enjoyed the food and the service was particularly good. I had a the 20oz prime steak and it was cooked perfectly – yum! However, I’d skip the lobster-mac-cheese balls as they were pretty bland without the marinara sauce

This restaurant is fantastic!! I just had a party of 12 and everyone was thrilled with the food, wine and service. Top notch! I scheduled everything long distance Ali and he took good care of every detail! Thank you, Ali!! We had the Calamari and Mango Bruchetta for appetizers. Choices for dinner were, Salmon, Chicken Marsala, Mushroom Ravioli and Eggplant Parmesan.
Everything was delicious.

After a long day, our first meal was at 5pm-ish, a little early for dinner but very late for lunch. Needless to say, we came hungry. They are on the pricey side, but that really did not matter. The service is painfully spotty and not attentive. We had to call their attention to get our order started. The food came out pretty late and when I inquired about my steak, “You ordered medium well so it is taking longer”. It came out well seasoned, but also well done. I did finish my plate, but more because by then I was so hungry. There are many other options around this place…not sure we need to go back on this one. Would it be a nice enough place to take someone for a date or maybe finish a business meeting? Sure but again, many options in downtown Pleasanton.
