    The waiter got the order wrong, but gave us the appetizer we ordered for free to make up for the mistake. This is a great restaurant and this is the first time I’ve ever had an anomaly there.

    Bacio was absolutely fabulous AGAIN. The food (Two of us had the aspargis ravioli—to die for, the lamb linguini, and the vegetarian lasagna) was so, so wonderful!!! Everyone raved about it. David gave us phenomenal service AGAIN!!! Our friends visiting from Mexico raved and raved about it!!! Bacio by far is my favorite Twin Cities restaurant. I especially love going there for lunch!!! David is the great host at the front desk then. I always ask for Tori to be our server. She’s absolutely wonderful too!!! On a scale of one to five, Bacio is a TEN!!!

    I have always had positive experiences at Bacio but I wanted to comment on the excellent service we received yesterday. Our server was Ashley H. First, my friend gave me flowers as we were heading into the restaurant. Ashley noticed and brought out a vase (water carafe) and placed the flowers in the water so we could enjoy them while we ate (and they wouldn’t dry out). Second, Ashley brought my friend a sample of a non-alcoholic wine and when my friend commented that she really liked it, Ashley brought out the bottle so my friend could take a picture.

    I took 2 business friends for lunch in the outside patio. The sandwiches were delicious, the ambiance delightful and they both want to return to Bacio for our next lunch!

    Service was slow. Wait staff pleasant. My lasagna was not hot all the way through and my husband’s lasagna the bottom noodle was burnt. I expected better. My son had chicken piccata which was good. The salads were expensive and unimpressive. I don’t think we would go back based on this experience. For the price I expected better.

    We had a very lovely time at Bacio. My beef tenderloin was cooked to perfection and the service was great. Hadn’t been there in a while. We’ll definitely be back.
