Bacio

Bacio has been around a long time and makes really nice Italian food, provides great service that makes you feel special, and has great ambiance. Prices are pretty modest for the level of quality you get, which makes it a great value for a special night. And it is a more unique place that you don't get as much out in the suburbs. It can be pretty busy, so I would recommend reservations. Three of us went there for dinner recently and had a great experience. The food is fresh and tasty, with great ingredients and attention to attractive plating as you can see from the attached pics. Great for a romantic date night (but if you're old like me, the menu may be hard to read in the dim light! ;)). They also have a great happy hour, but again the bar fills up quickly!

Went for happy hour and was pleasantly surprised. We had the HH margaritas and cosmopolitans. For food had a pepperoni pizza and cacio dePepe. Pasta was perhaps a little too el dente.Prices were very reasonable and appreciated. Parking lot full but no problem finding a spotWill be back.

Met my friend here for dinner couple weeks ago and it was my first time here. It's a beautiful place with great service. Food is good but nothing to rave about. Our server was great but I can't remember her name. As soon as we were seated a basket of bread with butter was brought over to us. The bread was really soft and perfect with the butter. We decided to skip apps since we wanted to save room for dessert. My friend ordered the Wild Mushroom Ravioli and I got the Braised Short Rib Papardelle. The Ravioli was delicious stuffed with mushrooms and had sherry, goat cheese, tomato, cream, evoo and arugula. I thought the Goat cheese was going to over power all the other amazing flavors but it was very well balanced. It was a very delicious dish and my friend loved it. My Papardelle was too al dente for my liking and my friend agreed with me. Our server took my dish back and brought a new one for me. It was way better the second time but felt like the Papardelle could have used another 30 seconds or so. The flavors were very good with sherry, cream, mushrooms & herb gastrique. The Short Rib was so tender it just melts in your mouth. We opted for two desserts the cherry-apricot crostada & the Budino. The crostada had a well balanced sourness and sweetness to it. It was a perfect ending to the dinner. The Budino was a molten chocolate cake with vanilla Gelato and chocolate sauce. The cake was so moist and delicious and very chocolaty. Perfect if you are wanting some rich chocolate cake after dinner. All in all it was a good experience.

I have never been here before and a friend invited me to brunch before doing some shopping. The location has ample parking, and as you approach, you find yourself by a beautiful patio that is well decorated and gives the feel of being in a quiet Vinyard. The inside was absolutely beautiful, with lots of arches and brickwork. We were greeted right away by a very kind staff member and taken to our seats. Our server was Tania who was absolutely amazing. She provided prompt service while keeping the mood light and fun. There was lots of laughter and fun providing us with a delightful dining experience. We ordered a bunch, and it was packed with flavors. The eggs were cooked to perfection and the potatoes were perfectly cooked and not soggy or dry. The wine list was fantastic, and the mimosas were ice cold, unlike some locations where it's lukewarm and tastes like watered-down oranges. I hope to make another trip there soon to try the rest of the food. Thank you Tania for the amazing experience!

We stopped in here after visiting the mall. I was amazed by the beautiful decor and we received pretty good service.Tortiglioni Rossa and the beignets were my favorite! There is a large spacious parking lot that is in front of the restaurant yet detached from the overall mall parking lot so it isn't overwhelming.

Visiting Bacio for the first time was a fantastic experience! The interior is absolutely beautiful, with an ambiance that feels both chic and welcoming. It sets the perfect backdrop for a memorable meal.The drink menu was so much fun, offering a wide variety of options. I went with the green tea and honey spritzer. I decided to go for several appetizers, and every single one was delicious. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and packed with flavor, truly couldn't pick a favorite. Bacio truly impressed me from start to finish, and I can't wait to return and try even more from their menu. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a stylish, flavorful dining experience in Minnetonka.

Food and service is always exceptional! Happy hour menu is great, plenty of seating in the bar area! The main part of the restaurant is very nice and feels fancy. I come here for brunch and HH quite a bit. You can't beat their brunch menu. The breakfast burrito is amazing! The happy hour menu, you won't find anything like it and the prices are hard to beat!!

Pro:Beautiful brick interiorDelicious appetizers - loved the bacon wrapped scallops and apple salad! So tasty!Friendly, knowledgeable staff Encrusted walleye was spiced and cooked well, perfectly crispyLoved the warm homemade bread with butterCons:Linguine Di Mare was over sauced and did not have enough seafood. Pro tip:Try a meal with a bunch of appetizers. They are the stars of the menu!

Bacio offers a surprisingly diverse and delicious menu with something for everyone. Each dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was fantastic, the patio and interior is intimate, and the convenient parking made the experience even better. Highly recommend for a great dining experience! We will be bringing out of town guests to this spot!

The Ahi tuna crisps was the best happy hour app that I've had in a Long time!I have to admit that I first ordered the shrimp toast. Ive had LeAnn Chins famous shrimp toast decades ago and that is my standard! Bacios shrimp toast tasted burnt. I pointed out to my waitress and she said it always comes out that dark! Nope, not a fan. Someday I'll come back and try more of their delicious options. You should too
