We chose Baci based on its TA rating and reviews, however, I’m now wishing I’d done my homework a little more carefully. The service was actually very good, so no complaints there- however we felt that for the price, the food was just ok. Nice,...but ok. Nothing really outstanding. The ambience is a little old fashioned and I think they could with some nice touches such as candles (or even those flameless candles) and lower, warmer lights. The sound level is high as it’s a noisy, bustling restaurant- which is fun if you’re in a nice big group, but less so if you’re looking for a quiet romantic meal. We left feeling as if we should have shopped around for something a little nicer.More

My wife and I hosted several of her son's friends for dinner here. The food was excellent and the service exceptional. We cannot wait to visit again for another wonderful meal. Everyone who attended had something different and each different dish was superb. An excellent...experience all around.More

Excellent food and service! The burrata appetizer was our favorite. Make sure you book a reservation as it is a popular restaurant.

I have had the pleasure of dining at Baci’s twice while staying nearby. The first time was with a friend l, and this time I brought my husband for our anniversary dinner. When you come in, the welcome is genuine. When you’re seated, the service...is intuitive. You’ll even get to meet the owners…walking around, checking in on everyone with smiles and warmth. When the food comes, that’s when you’ll know you’re home. Both of the meals I have here were incredible - you can’t really go wrong with anything you order. The bread is fresh…the wines are fantastic, and the sauces are perfect. This is the place to go if you want a great experience. Thank you again for being amazing….I’ll be back!More

No issue getting a reservation on Open Table, but they stay busy so do get a reservation. My wife’s salad & ravioli were outstanding as was my huge plate of lamb shank. Vast wine list. Desserts amazing. It was a special birthday, but our waiter...Frank kind of abandoned us and didn’t make us feel special. We ended up having to go to the maitre’d and a young waitress with a mask to proceed to dessert and the bill. The food was exceptional, not so Frank on service.More

We've eaten here many times over the years but it has been awhile due to the pandemic. So pleased to say that everything is as good as always. The menu is extensive and balanced with choices that should please any palate. The wine list is...primarily local and more reasonably priced than most restaurants. Besides you will likely be eating dinner with many local wine makers sitting nearby. The service is excellent and unlike many local restaurants; the servers are long term employees who remember their customers. The food is tasty and well presented. The owners are both gracious and outgoing. Lizbeth and Chef Shari greet and visit with the customers at their tables on a regular basis-what a treat to have that touch!More

On our last night in Healdsdbug, my wife and I dined at Baci. Baci is an Italian restaurant and wine bar. The atmosphere is warm and sophisticated. We began with a very delicious beet salad. Red and Golden beets, fennel, onions, gorgonzola and citrus dressing...made this a perfect salad. Entrees were the shrimp scampi with vegetables and risotto and the Al Forno which is cannelloni filled with crab, ricotta and pancetta in a lobster cream and baked. This was one of the best pasta dishes I have ever eaten. Baci is one of the best Itakian restaurants that I have dined in.More

Baci is a great Italian restaurant just off the square in Healdsburg, CA. The food is very tasty and rich. Four of us had the prosciutto, the burrata salad and the bruschetta to start our meal. Then we had the spaghetti bolognese, the bucatini all’Amatriciana...and the veal saltimbocca along with a couple of nice bottles of a Montepulciano d’abruzzo. After all that we still had room for dessert. Great service in a great Italian atmosphere. Highly recommended.More

Everything was delicious. I loved the beet and citrus salad. When I had finished every last bite of my short rib ravioli, I was completely content. Fortunately, my husband ordered the three layer mousse so I was able to try it. It was as fabulous...as the rest of the meal.More

The chef came out and spoke with us about our choices for dinner (salmon and beef and pasta) and was...very engaging. We all agreed this was our best dinner while staying in Healdsburg.More
