DELICIOUS!!! Here for an early dinner for our first time and the restaurant did not disappoint! We went for the Lobster Ravioli and it was worth every penny. A sumptuous pink champagne cream sauce with stuffed ravioli that were perfectly prepared and topped with shrimp. Large portion with plenty to savor and even some to take home. Wait staff was cordial and pleasant. Highly recommended and I hope to return in the future.

Not Great, Not Awful its ok. Food is good not amazing. Protions are good, prices are on the high end. PARKING IS AWFUL, VERY LIMITED. The restaurant is loud and you sit close to over dinners. Very tight seating. I would go again as take out Not dine in.

The host stand did a great job finding us a table and seating us expeditiously despite the business. We were comfortable where we were sat.
Our server, appeared to be distracted definitely came back to have our drink order repeated. Forgot to check on the table, ordered a second drink and it didn’t come until my meal was finished and didn’t apologize for the 25 minute delay of not having the drink on the table. Also shows, 25 minutes of lacking service.
Food, calamari was good, the baked clams tasted a little fishy. We ordered the chicken and shrimp scampi and I’m so happy we ordered 1 dish to share. The dish lacked flavor, felt soupy and the pasta was definitely not al dente. This pasta was short of being in a soup, just completely underwhelming and soft.They gave us 3 pieces of shrimp and more chicken than anything. I make better pasta than this at home. After eating the food, definitely felt a bit nauseated.
I’d pass on this location for a meal. Between the underwhelming food and lackluster serve, it left a bad taste in my mouth.

Before addressing the food, I want to acknowledge that the front-of-house staff is doing a great job—they were helpful, attentive, and professional throughout our visit.
Unfortunately, the dining experience itself was deeply disappointing. Cafe Baci is a forgettable yet unforgettable experience—forgettable in flavor, unforgettable in how low-quality and tasteless the food was. As someone who is Italian, I had far higher expectations. Calling this “Italian cuisine” is honestly a stretch.
I lowered my usual dining standards to try something local, and that decision was a mistake. Every dish was bland and borderline inedible. My entire party lost their appetite—we left three full entrées untouched. To their credit, the manager removed them from the bill, which we appreciated.
If you enjoy low-quality food, excessively large portions, and overpriced plates, this may be the place for you.
Ambience: Confusing at best. At one point, I genuinely felt like I was in Texas. Nothing about the space reflects Italian culture or cuisine—it’s heavily Americanized. If you own cowboy boots, you might feel more at home than someone looking for an Italian café experience.
Overall: I will not be returning. This was a disappointing experience across the board, and there is significant room for improvement

Be warned, the wait can be long. Why? Because they don’t take reservations BUT if you time it right, you can be seated right away like we did when we went.
Portions are huge and the food is delivered in a timely manner by friendly waiters.
Well worth it!
Note: the line for the bathroom can get long because they only have 2 bathrooms.

Arrived on 1/23/25 at 10:25 PM intending to have just one drink…no food.
Google lists their closing time as 11:00 PM. However, the front desk lady told us they were closed, even though there were still guests actively dining. Sooooo my drink would have been done faster than anyone eating….?? One of the female bartenders was willing to serve us, but the man at the bar overruled her and refused very rude…….We left as a result.
Very disappointing…especially since this is our neighborhood spot. Not sure we’ll be returning. I’ve added two photos from a previous visit; I won’t be adding any others, despite having many more.

If you’re hungry and you love great Italian food, come to Cafe Baci. The portions are HUGE, the service is great and food is delicious! I love to be overfed and this place does not disappoint. Every meal served is enough for two people. We had the chicken parm, the chicken paesano and the Italian chopped salad with grilled chicken. All 3 were top tier!

Visited for the first time on Easter Sunday. There was no wait for a party of two, which was great considering how busy restaurants get on this holiday. So that was a good start…now onto the food. My wife ordered the penne saporite and I the lasagna. Both dishes were ok. But honestly, nothing special. Kind of run-of-the-mill quality. Also be warned that portions are enormous; feels like almost too much food. I know it sounds weird complaining about something like this, but it did feel excessive. I will say that staff were very friendly and attentive though the food did take a little longer than expected. Atmosphere was OK…place looks dated and could use some upgrading. Don’t know if I’ll be back which is a shame since I had high hopes since I had heard very good things about this place.
