For this time, I was disappointed with Bacchus. I had enjoyed tasting menu and matching wines from previous visits. However, they did not serve it tonight, and there were not single notice from the website or OpenTable. The mussel and steak were sub average... having red wine in white wine glass was also a surprise..
We've been here many times and the food didn't wow me at our most recent visit. We had an awesome server and it's always a nice restaurant but I don't think we'll be back for a while.
The wine list was very good. We found the dinner menu limited and stagnate. The specials were a welcome addition and, for the most part, priced reasonably, but the Steak for Two at $120 was a fail. All steaks were sliced when served which we do not appreciate. We like to see the full cut ordered upon delivery to table. Some of the starters were better than others. Service was attentive at the start and lagged noticeably upon delivery of the entrees. Our meal for 3 was over $500 and was not up to that standard.
Unoriginal ambiance and menu. Food not prepared as ordered.
We tried the tasting menu and I was incredibly disappointed. The pumpkin soup shot and the homemade Bolognese were delicious along with the extensive wine list. But after a 5-course tasting menu that ended in the most disgusting panna cotta I've never tasted, I hated spending $250 on one meal that wasn't worth it at all. The food didn't live up to expectations.
Food was very good but the service was atrocious, definitely not what you would expect from a fine dining establishment.
We did the 5 course chefs menu with wine pairings. The entire service was painfully slow. Our waitress greeted us and said she would get us water and bread. We waited over 20 minutes for water and we had to flagged her down. The bread came about 1 hour later. Each course took about 30-40 minutes to come out. The wine pairings were so tiny! We spent the night mostly with empty drinks since the spacing of meals were so long. Overall it took 3 hours to complete dinner. We left angry, mad we paid $250 for terrible service.

I had to ask for dirty dishes to be removed from the table. no refill on my coffee. I had the halibut and asked if the Asian sauce would over power the fish and I was told it would not he was wrong. I ate none of the eggplant and other veggies, only the fish. For what we paid that evening I expected more!!!
The food and service were very good, but not proportional to the cost. We got the 5 course meal with wine pairings and everything tasted very average. There was nothing very creative or unique, which is what I would have expected for $150/person. I’ve had fine dining meals that were significantly better at the same price point.
