This place was fantastic! The meatballs were good… sauce was on point ! Pizza was good, reasons why they say to use a fork and knife to eat because it’s just the perfect amount of thin but the sauce and toppings weigh it down. The salad was good but the chicken was cold and dry and I asked for no onions & onions were put on the salad which the server/bartender didn’t bother to correct or acknowledge until we paid. The drinks were great! Such a cute spot to checkout!

They make a very good Napoleon pizza, we had the 3 meat pizza and loved it but we’re a little upset with seating. It was a chilly February night during snowbird season and the upstairs seating was closed Too cold to sit outside and the inside was “full”. Actually there were seats on the 2 six tops but the host didn’t offer to seat us. A six top with 2 diners means room for 2 more So we ended up taking the pizza home.

Genuinely the worst restaurant I have ever been too. We made a reservation at 8:15 for inside and upstairs, got seated at 8:50 outside. The hostes was also very rude. We ordered and got moved upstairs at 9. A whole hour went by without anyone checking in on us or giving us any water. We got our food at 10, they close at 10. My pasta tastes like it has been sitting out and the bread was stale. We also ordered pizza which when we picked up a slice it fell apart and looked unappetizing. There was also a group of four next to us who also had complained. We drove an hour and waited two hours just to not eat and have this horrible experience. This ruined my day. Don’t let these review fool you. If you want nice food and experience do not come here. So disappointed.

Everything is made with imported Italian flour. This is so important, as I cannot have American wheat flour
Amazing tagliatelle bolognese & wood fired pizzas! Had appetizer of Aperol Spritz and oysters- spot on!
The Tuscan wines are amazing as well!

I celebrated my birthday there yesterday with a table of 11! Our server was Steven – he is INCREDIBLE! Our drinks were never empty, our food came out in a timely manner and just his presence was great! He gave great recommendations! The food was INCREDIBLE! Not one empty dish was left! Wings were crispy, broccolini was fresh, pizza was perfectly cooked and the pasta was DELICIOUS! I will definitely be returning!

Doug is always a main reason for coming back to bavaros!
Every time we come in, he makes us feel like VIPs. He’s attentive, always remembers our favorites, and somehow makes every dinner feel special. His recommendations are always spot on, and his personality truly elevates the whole experience.
Bavaros is already our favorite restaurant, but Doug is a big reason we keep coming back. If you’re lucky enough to have him as your server, you’re in for the best night.
The food is amazing and authentic Italian.
My husband and I have such a great experience every time we come that we even did our wedding reception at bavaros❤️ which Doug also helped make sure everything was perfect for that too!!

I had the whipped limoncello pizza and it is absolutely insane how good it is. The meatballs were reallyy good and the nutella pizza dessert was also amazing. Our server Douglas was friendly. The place is not expensive at all for the experience and the quality of the food. Would recommend to anyone

Bavaro’s is such a gem!
The atmosphere is warm, elegant, and perfect for both date night and dinner with friends.
The wood-fired pizza was outstanding.
The burrata was just as impressive vibrant and fresh with juicy tomatoes, pesto, and a drizzle of balsamic, served alongside crisp, toasty bread.

Great food efficient friendly staff. The table we were seated had a foot or less between the tables. It was a bit of a challenge! I did persevere however.
