Probably the most authentic seeming Italian food I've ever had. We ordered their lobster ravioli to share and it was actually amazing. You could genuinely taste the lobster! And no weird seafood smell, suggesting they use fresh seafood :)

Wow what a great meal at Cafe Baci! I used go with my family when I was younger. I haven't been in over a decade but I will 100% be back. I had been wishy washy on where to go then decided I wanted to have an Italian feast. Baci definitely delivered. The interior is warm and inviting. We started with the bread and fried calamari. The bread is soooo good almost like Sicilian pizza with no cheese. The fried calamari was good. It came out the same time as our pastas which the server was super apologetic about but we didn't mind. Bae had the tortelloni amore and I had the ravioli Verdi -- I loved that it was a spinach cream sauce instead of pesto. Both of our pastas were soooo rich and delicious. Perfect for that "Italian feast" feeling I wanted. We finished with tiramisu which was amazing and so good. Bae said Baci was one of his fav places I introduced him to!

Cafe Baci is a local staple in the area. Delicious Italian food, great for families or a date night, lovely service. Parking is convenient since they have a parking lot right outside. We came right when they opened on Father's Day and were thankfully seated immediately but it definitely got packed quick. The staff was great, food came out at a decent rate, and it was definitely cheese heavy! Upon seating, bread baskets were placed on the table. The complimentary bread was delicioussss. It was kind of like focaccia bread with some tomato sauce. Warm, airy, and flavorful. Just needed some garlic. For appetizers, we got the caesar salad, parmesan fries, and fried calamari. Caesar salad and parmesan fries were loaded with cheese (a tad much) The Caesar salad had both the sliced parm as well as the grated parm so it was a little salty but refreshing. The fried calamari was perfectly fried, still had tender calamari pieces inside and very lightly breaded on the outside. My only wish was for some leg pieces cause those are my favorite. For entrees, we got an assortment of pastas and flatbreads. Everything was delicious, I had no complaints for any of them. Portions were huge and I love that they really sauce up the pasta (the more sauce the better in my opinion). The Mamma Mia platter is great for indecisive people like me who love to try a variety of different things. It had 3 of my favorites - meatballs, lasagna and chicken parm. We ended our meal with a cappuccino and slice of tiramisu. If you like tiramisus that are heavy on the cream, then you'll love this one. The tiramisu could've used some more cocoa flavor but it's unique cause it's paired with a caramel sauce. The cappuccino was delicious.

Always a solid choice when you're in Nassau County and want a great and home style feeling Italian meal, with attentive staff. Have been here for all kinds of events (small, large and everything in between) - the service is always on point. The food is deliciously made to order (and the bread - never say no here... but do pace ya'self!). Desserts don't stay behind, tiramisu is a delight.

All time Favorite! This is a local Italian restaurant to me and we absolutely LOVE IT! This has been our go to restaurant for Italian food for a few years now. Ambience is not chic or upscale, but it's not terrible either. It offers really comfortable dining, service is among and food is DELICIOUS! We love their baked clams, and almost all their pastas (we haven't tried all just yet). Each pasta dish is served family style. Desert is delicious and you can't go wrong with any option! Highly recommend! On the weekends, the parking lot does get filed up quickly and they don't do reservations! But it's worth the wait on their busiest days!

When I tell you I love this place I do! I was in town and wanted to eat at one of my fav Italian restaurants. The service is great and on point every time. Prices are so reasonable. The bread for the table is so good. I love the zucchini and you get a huge portion. I order the famous mama mia. I had a raspberry lemon drop which was so good! My daughter had a Moscow mule. They no longer do reservations Friday to Sunday unless it is 8 ppl or more I believe. Reservations can be made Monday to Thursday. If you are in Long Island, please enjoy a nice Italian meal.

Baci Cafe's exterior didn't catch my eye at first glance, but after stepping inside I was in a cozy haven. The interior has comfortable seating and warm lighting creating a vibe that says "stay a while." Once seated you're met with cheese bread. The service here is friendly and efficient. The Chicken Parmigiana is a solid choice... well-executed, but don't expect any surprises. On the other hand, the Penne Saporite is a standout dish. It has a creamy vodka sauce generously layered with cheese, spinach, and chicken. One of Baci Cafe's strengths seems to be its vino selection- easily. Larger selection than most Italian restaurants, and perfect for the oenophiles. I recommend this restaurant as a reliable choice for your next Italian dinner. The food is tasty, the portions are huge (family-style huge), and the welcome is always warm.

3.5 stars Finally came here with my husband after deciding to make the trip to LI from Brooklyn to go shopping at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's and wanted to have an adult meal without the baby while running errands. It was bustling on Tuesday afternoon around lunchtime. Though we were seated right away, there was no lunch menu offered this particular day. There is complimentary bread offered that was like focaccia, but not exactly - had sauce and some pieces of onions. After seeing a few things on the menu we wanted to try, we settled on the Saporite (chicken, spinach, vodka sauce and melted cheese) and the Lobster Ravioli. It's hard to find a good one, but I took my chances. Honestly, it was really just cheese ravioli with shrimp and vegetables on top. I was not impressed by them, but the sauce was good and the shrimp and vegetables worked so even though it was 6 pcs for $28, the toppings left me full after I was done. My husband thought his Saporite was okay also, good, but not like amazing, but it did hit that yummy hot pasta feel. I tried some and it was good, but something about it felt commercial. For drinks I ended up getting a strawberry lemonade that they use strawberry puree for, though it looked like pink coloring, but it was good and exactly what I wanted. Overall the service was fine, our waitress was serving a lot of tables so she was more in and out, but overall everything was fine. I'm thinking the main draw is the large portions that can be packed up (but not the lobster ravioli). I would come back to try something else before making any finals decisions :)

Came here on a Saturday evening, arrived a little after 5 and it was already hopping. Only a few tables left so we had no wait. They sat us in a table in the rear next to a window, a nice touch, felt private. We did not order apps because they always give you large portions. For dinner I ordered the Chicken Paesano, Chicken, Sweet Suasage, Potatoes and String Beans in a brown sauce, a large portion and awesome. My wife had the Penne Saporite, my brother-in-law and his wife had the Chicken Parmigiana and Shrimp Parmigiana. We all brought half our portions home. Our waitress was great, efficient, polite and courteous, always filling our water. A great dining experience. Hope to back soon.
