Established in 2014 by the team that brought you Aurora Brooklyn, Aurora Soho as well as Emporio, Baker & co is a landmark of the Italian cuisine in the vibrant neighborhood of West Village.
Baker & co creates a perfect balance of tradition and innovation, with a great respect for seasonality, by combining top quality Italian imports, sustainably grown local produce and house-made specialties.

The rustic and charming dining room, with exposed brick walls, opens to an intimate patio that can be enclosed during the colder months, and is perfect for a relaxing experience "al fresco" during the warm season.

We went for brunch on a Saturday morning. Two of us ordered the Eggs Benedict with salmon. At first our orders came out wrong (with prosciutto instead of salmon) but it was corrected fairly quickly. Once we got our food it was delicious!! Also, the Bloody Mary is quite yummy and spicy. Overall it was a great dining experience.

Overall we enjoyed our meal here. It's an attractive place. The lighting was dark which we didn't love. The food and drinks were good. Our server was very accommodating but the food did take a long time to come. It was a bit loud so having conversation a little challenging.

Beautiful but cozy environment. Service was great. We loved the focaccia with ricotta and honey appetizer. And all the pasta dishes we tried were amazing. Doesn’t have a full bar…just a FYI for those looking for drinks with dinner. Can’t wait to go back!

The loudest restaurant I have been to in my entire life. The noise entirely ruined our experience and we had to ask for our check and leave. The service was rushed (with the kitchen bringing our main dishes before our salad plates were even cleared). It was hot with little air circulation and we were surrounded by parties of 6. This is really a loud uncomfortable bar that pretends it’s a restaurant. What a shame and waste of $150 for dinner without dessert.

Darko was our server. He is charming and quick. The vibe of the restaurant is calm and romantic. But it could also be viewed as clean and intimate. There is an outdoor patio. The menu has a variety of great options. The prices are reasonable. The food was delicious. Everything we had was so tasty. Will return.

During our time, at Baker & C, we really enjoyed the decorations and warm welcoming experience. From the moment stepping into the restaurant to the moment of having dinner, we had a pleasant time throughout our visit! The dishes we had was delicious; each meal served with great portion and a magical taste! The atmosphere was very hospitable, and noise level was conversational, which we really appreciated. Definitely recommend for date nights or a nice dive into a great evening experience.

Our first visit there. There’s a very nice covered outdoor space in the back- fortunately air conditioning was very good on that hot day! As more people filled in the space it got really noisy so was hard to hear each other’s conversation at the table. But not awful. The food was beautifully presented and very good. Service was friendly and attentive. I hope to return again before long. Maybe we will try to get there earlier before the boisterous crowds! Thanks again.

We were meeting family there and ended up staying at our table long after we finished our meal The staff were extremely gracious and did not try to hurry us out We had paid our bill and then decided we would like a round of coffee and drinks. They served us with smiles and none of the usual sense of annoyance one. Sometimes gets from waitstaff It made for a wonderful afternoon with family Thank you so much!
