Baci Ristorante & Heart of Oak Pub

Beautiful restaurant. The food is delicious. Some of the best tiramisu I've ever had. Been several times, tonight I had the mushroom risotto! Highly recommend. My date had the chicken & leek pie, it was delicious. Go and enjoy a great meal! Another great night at Baci! Had the special, roasted red pepper soup with goat cheese. Delicious!!!! Took a picture of the bar. Isn't it pretty! Awesome staff!

Beautiful venue. Dining room is cozy, rustic, romantic. Live music beginning around 7, not too loud; very classy. Service is professional, and typically prompt, but we noticed some longer waits towards the end of our stay when the dining room began to fill up. One annoying feature – our table did not sit evenly on the floor, so it wobbled badly. Food was fine, but not great. Minestrone soup was good, though it lacked pasta and beans, so I’d describe it more as a vegetable soup. Vegetables were numerous and varied, so it was enjoyable. The eggplant appetizer was fantastic. “Rolled eggplant, prosciutto, mozzarella in pink cream sauce.” The two small pieces went quickly, shared between two people. I was wishing for a third piece. The pasta special: “Cavatelli, oyster mushrooms, veal ragu.” The pasta itself was cooked just right – slightly chewy, not at all mushy. The sauce was overly oily, and could have benefited from more mushrooms. And the flavor of the sauce was just not to my liking. Also rather salty. Merluzzo Livornese – “Cod, pan-seared with black olives, onion, capers, tomato, garlic white wine.” I think this is a good dish – the different flavors blended together well, but maybe the cod filet itself was not great. Overall, just “not bad”. Served with fresh, crispy broccoli and thin strips of carrots. Bread is freshly baked and warm, but not good Italian bread; very white and soft, with no crust. Served with a very large piece of good butter. The tiramisu desert was light and delicious. Parking lot is tight, so please leave your monster trucks and massive SUVs at home. There is some street parking. Parking lot and street are dark, and a bit of a hazard for the elderly, so take care. There is a beautiful patio for outdoor dining.

Went here for our first time today for lunch. We liked the outside area and enjoyed our shrimp entree and asparagus side. They were even nice enough to separately plate the entree my friend and I were splitting. Would like to come back for dinner another time.

What a wonderful dining experience! My boyfriend and I started with the eggplant rollatini and mozzarella in carrozza. Absolutely delicious. The pink sauce on the eggplant was super garlicky- just how we like it! We had the tortellini with sausage & mushrooms and the tagliatelle bolognese for entrees and they were incredible. The service was great and the drinks were very good as well. I can’t remember the name of our server but she was so sweet. The upstairs dining room was beautifully decorated and has a very Tuscan vibe. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Dined here on 6/14 with another couple. This was our first visit. I'd say overall the experience was good but not good enough that I'd make a quick return. Service was okay, but not exceptional. I ordered a martini and when I was done my glass was whisked away and I was not asked if I wanted another. Same with my wife's diet coke. After our meals were delivered there was no follow up to see if everything was okay, bread basket was not refilled and we were not asked if we would like more and the basket was promptly removed once empty. We had a taste of the fried calamari and I have had way better. Chewy and not very tasty. I had the trenette pasta dish and my wife had the tortellini with sausage. Both were served hot and were good. Nice flavor but not like OMG good. Dessert was chocolate mousse cake which we shared. Nice presentation on the dessert, and it was tasty. They forgot my wife's coffee which we had to ask for as they brought the bill over while we ate dessert and had charged us for it. Overall I'd say this is an okay experience and a decent meal at reasonable prices, but I would not rush back. Try it and perhaps you'll feel differently.

We only been here twice, and each time, we really enjoyed it. The service was great. The food recommended was perfect. Our server suggested the eggplant app, and I'm not an eggplant lover, but this dish was DELICIOUS!!! The sauce was soooo good. The drinks were yummy too!! I love dining outside and can't wait for the weather to get nice. I definitely will be back again!!

I’ve always loved heart of oak but last night was my first time dinning upstairs. I was with a larger group and the server was amazing. I didn’t get her name but she was so on top of service. Drinks and food came out quickly and correct. The food as always was amazing. The whole group had a great time.

We had made reservations online through Resy. When we arrived, we checked in, and we were told that someone in our party had called the restaurant and told them we wanted to sit downstairs (in the English Pub), but no one from our party had called to make that request. After a few minutes we were seated in the back dining room, and we got settled in. Everything was delicious: the drinks, appetizers, entrees and desserts. We ordered the calamari, mozzarella in carrozza and steak fries for appetizers. Then for our main dishes we had the cod, bolognese, pasta ai frutti di mare, and one of their specials of the evening. They also have gluten free pasta! For dessert, we ordered the creme brulee, tartufo and peanut butter & chocolate cheesecake (also gluten free). The espresso was also very good! Overall, we enjoyed our meal. On busy nights, the parking lot can get filled quickly, so be aware. We'd definitely go back.
