    Best restaurant in San Diego. Every dish is well done. Fish dishes are by far the best in San Diego. Service is outstanding with staff that has been there for years.

    Baci is one of the best fine dining experiences in San Diego. Warm, friendly owners, an attentive waitstaff, terrific food, and an elegant ambiance. Baci should be in high rotation as one of your go to places for a special night out!

    We love our neighborhood Italian spot. But this night was special...I ordered Baci's Chilean Sea Bass special. Maybe I should ask what the prices are before I order their specials? Our bill for the Chilean Sea Bass special was $60! Why?
