    Our server ignored us most of the night. Once we asked for the check the server Tyler was apologetic for the poor service and offered to box up the food we still hadn’t received and told us to follow him and wait. So we did. He then avoided eye contact and ignored us again while we waited for the food we were promised. We left still hungry and frustrated

    We’ve been to Bacari multiple times and have always had a great experience, so we booked a table for 12 for nye. We were seated 30 min after our reservation time, which was expected since it was a busy night. We ordered our food and drinks right away to make it easier on our waiter. However, after 2 hours, we hadn’t received all our drinks and had only gotten 3 plates for our large party. We eventually had to pay for our drinks and leave as we had other plans, sad to leave hungry on nye after being excited to spend the evening at bacari.

    Fantastic meal, as always. The restaurant was busier than we expected, but the staff was cool, calm, and collected throughout. All dishes arrived quickly, paced perfectly (hint: order all dishes upfront)

    We had a little bit of everything sea bass, lentil soup, wings, brussel sprouts, and a pizza for our daughter. Wade the bar manager, made me a chill pill (tequila with subtle lavender and cucumber) Everything was delicious! Liz the manager was very accessible and attentive. We will definitely be back!

    As always, the food was outstanding! It was a very busy New Year’s Eve, so service was a tad off.

    Came here for a birthday dinner and they brought out complementary Prosecco and a dessert as well as a free glass of wine. I was bummed because they seemed busy that night and forgot several of the meals that I had ordered for my friends, but we were in a rush and had to leave will definitely come back and recommend for a birthday dinner.
