"We ate at Baci last night. It's better than when Bill owned it! What's better is the servings are more abundant, the recipes have been tweaked to add more interest, and, in the case of my husband's entree, the veal was a better grade of meat than what was previously used. The veal marsala was so much more tender and tasted so much better, we asked our veteran waitress, Pat, whose employment predated Bill, if it was a better grade and she said yes. My pro secco apertif was served in a new modern stylish, slender tall glass that appeared to be a larger serving than the old champagne flutes. There was considerably more home grown tomato bruschetta on top of the toasted bread rounds. My linguine con vongole in clear sauce was a more generous portion than in the past. It was considerably larger than the meager, bland portion I ate two weeks ago at Arancio at Kahala, Honolulu Magazine's Finalist for Best O'ahu Restaurant, 2018 Hale Aina Award Winner and gold winner winner in Best Italian. I really liked the tweaked insalate pere's shaved beet and carrots and my husband liked the artichokes he didn't remember seeing previously in the veal marsala. My husband ordered grappa after the meal. It was one of the cheaper options. He was prepared for moonshine. Instead, it was extremely smooth and served in glass twice as large as the size in which grappa is normally served. My profiteroles were outstanding. If you want to eat at Oahu's best Italian restaurant, this is it."

Somewhat overpriced and pretentious. Average house wine was substantially overpriced and not great quality. View menu

Excellent customer service and incredible food. Hostess and waiters were extremely friendly and helpful. Food was some of the best Italian we have had in quite some time, something we didn't expect to find on the island of Oahu! If you are in search of delicious Italian while in Hawaii, I highly recommend Baci Bistro.

The food just wasn't good. The Alfredo sauce was gloppy, not creamy, and the olive oil in the Caprese salad was inferior quality, when it should have been extra virgin. When we ordered, several items we requested were not available. Then, while we waited, people came into the restaurant carrying fresh supplies of food. That should be done before the restaurant opens, so menu items will be available. We were there on the late side for lunch, which is an unacceptable time to stock up. I will not go there again and won't recommend it. View menu

We have been to Baci many times. The food is decent but not fantastic. Three of us ordered the Monchong piccata fish special. Unfortunately all three were underdone. One of the plates was very underdone. The waitress took them all back and they were cooked longer. Unfortunately they were still all underdone... they were basically just warmed up. Our guest stopped eating and the waitress inquired if it was better. When she replied that it was not, they offered to replace the meal. She ended up choosing a shrimp linguini. It was better. My daughter and I lost our appetite for the meal and did not continue eating. There were apologies, but no offer to take half off the dish or anything. It was...

"BEST BREAKFAST OF YOUR LIFE If you are an avid breakfast lover, this is the place to come. My fiancé ordered coffee with the Kahlua apple doesn’t register Hawaiian language) pork hash with a side of papaya. I had the over easy plate with two eggs, homemade sausage, and crispy potatoes. Added a side of pancakes. Our server brought the coffee and there was a hair on top of the cup but she immediately noticed and said she would replace it. Our food came out quick. My boyfriend’s hash was pretty massive. I think two people can share it. It came with lots of pork, potatoes, green goddess, and pico on top. He let me sample and it was so yummy. Not salty at all. The pork is tender with a nice flavor to it. It’s a hearty meal. Made for eating before going out on a day at the beach. My breakfast was just as good. The crispy potatoes have a lot of crunch to them without being greasy. My eggs were cooked to perfection. The side of pancakes were HUGE. They are coated with a nice layer of powdered sugar no butter, you’ll have to ask). They remind me of Cracker Barrel’s pancakes- which I have been dying for since moving to the west coast. The only thing I didn’t like was the homemade sausage. It had a little too much fennel seed for my liking. I don’t like quite that much. The papaya was delicious! I wanted to try the breakfast drinks but I’m pregnant so I can’t say anything about it. I will say, we sat by the like bar area they have that is by outdoor seating. I saw the waitress pouring green juice from a pitcher. Originally thought they made each juice MTO made to order) but it looks like it’s made then put in a pitcher until they run out. I would have tried it however, being pregnant, you have to be careful if the veggies are cleaned properly. Get here early because we came on a Wednesday at 930 and by 1030 they had a bunch of people waiting for seating. It’s a hot place to get breakfast. Also, if you want to get a facial nearby, visit the skin hut just behind Over Easy in the pink building. Get breakfast and then a facial. My kind of day!"
