Super disappointed on an old favorite Tonight for my anniversary, I went to Baci Bistro bistro in Kailua. We are club members there and I have never had a bad meal But today, I was so disappointed in my experience We arrived at 4:56 for a 5 PM reservation The doors were open. The tables were set, and I walked up to the hostess and let her know we had arrived.. She advised me that we were early and that she would ask the waiter if it was OK to seat us early. (EARLY !???? 4 minutes!????) Ok - I thought this was strange, but kept my mouth shut and was seated after she came back and told us the waiter would serve us, even though we were early We let them know we were club members and as a member of the club, you pay $50 a month and your first visit each month you get a complementary bottle of House wine. So I asked what the house Chardonnay was and ordered a bottle.. When we ordered our meals, I ordered the risotto with peas and shrimp, but asked if I could substitute the shrimp for scallops. This is not the first time I have done this, in the past the Manager had recommended this to me as a good substitution since I don't like shrimp.. The waiter took our order and left and then came back and informed me that shrimp is less expensive than scallops and so there would be an up charge of $11 And so I asked, so what you're saying is I'm going to pay the $25.95 for the risotto and another $11 for scallops? And he said yes. OK whatever they've never charged me before but that is fine. Our meals came and I got three scallops, each smaller than the size of a quarter. Really!!???? instead of giving me 7 to 10 shrimp you are giving me three tiny scallops and charging me $11 extra.??!! But it was my anniversary and I didn't wanna ruin the evening so, OK fine. We eat our meals and we're ready to check out when the waiter came with our ticket and the bottle of wine was being charged with a 30% discount. I explained that as club members our bottle of wine should be free, and he said he had called the owner and the owner said / no it's only 30% off. And so I asked for the Manager. The manager said he also spoke with the owner and the bottle was supposed to be 30% off. So I brought up their website and showed them their own offering that if you are a club member you pay $50 a month to be a club member and the reward is that you get a free bottle of House wine every month. When you click on "learn more "it restates it again that every month you get one free bottle of House wine with your first visit. It is August 4, this is my first visit this month!! After much to do, the manager adjusted my ticket and I paid and we left. It wasn't until I got to my car that I realized that when I clicked on 20% tip, it calculated that automatically as $35 But my bill was only $120 So I got cheated on that too!!! I have never been so disappointed, this has always been an excellent restaurant with excellent food and somewhere that I always take people when they come to visit us. I felt very cheated and miss handled today.. what a disappointment! I never even got an apology from the manager after he realized the mistake. I'm sad to have to cross them off the refer people here list! Too bad read more

We ended up here as a fallback plan after the wait at Haleiwa Joe's got too long. Overall, this was a pretty mediocre dining experience, but the biggest issue -- and the reason we would not recommend this restaurant -- was food safety. The restaurant itself is very small and, honestly, felt poorly managed on the Sunday night we visited. It appeared the manager had staffed the place almost entirely with high school-aged kids. To be fair, they were all polite and friendly, but they clearly were not trained professional waitstaff. The hostess in particular seemed completely overwhelmed and unsure of what she was doing. The food itself was average at best for the price point. Ambiance was okay, nothing particularly memorable one way or the other. We probably would have left thinking "meh, it was fine" except for one major problem. My wife ordered the seafood spaghetti, and the New Zealand mussels in the dish were BAD. Not "a little fishy" bad -- genuinely spoiled bad. The smell and taste were immediately obvious. We brought it to the manager's attention, and her response honestly shocked me more than the mussels themselves. She casually explained that sometimes they get "bad batches of mussels and you can't tell," as if serving spoiled mussels is just an unavoidable normal occurrence. That is not an acceptable answer from a restaurant serving seafood. To their credit, they did remove the dish from the bill, which was the minimum they should have done. Unfortunately, later that night my wife ended up vomiting after dinner. Thankfully it was not severe enough to ruin our vacation or require medical attention, but it absolutely confirmed our concern that something was wrong with the food. At the end of the day, average food and mediocre service are one thing. Serving spoiled shellfish and responding to the complaint with a shrug is another. We would not return. read more

Went to Baci Bistro for a business meeting/dinner in Kailua and found it to have a very quaint atmosphere and the food was fantastic. Thankfully, I didn't have to pay for it, as I thought the prices were a bit on the expensive side, even for Hawaii. That said, the meal was excellent, and I especially enjoyed my mushroom risotto. The service was fantastic. Paid street and lot parking. Best to make a reservation. read more

Good Italian places are hard to find in Hawaii but baci adequately met my pasta craving need. Restaurant is located in Kailua right off of kuulei road. Plenty of street parking and spots at the garage behind HNB. Inside they decorated everything to look like you're sitting in a greenhouse or garden terrace. Bread and oil was given when we sat down and we split the prosciutto e melone appetizer which was pretty good. Our main dishes were good, we just wish the portion was bigger for the price. Staff was really friendly and on top of their service. read more

Cozy, quaint charming restaurant setting the tone for a great dinner. Started off with bread and sparkling water. Server presented the daily specials and answered our questions. Caprese salad was refreshing. Cold slice juicy tomatoes topped with soft creamy mozzarella cheese between a basil leaf topped with a balsamic glazed. My veal was sautéed with capers, sun-dried tomatoes, artichoke hearts and white wine was succulent. The risotto was rich and velvety, perfect complement to the creamy sauce. Guest loved her lobster ravioli. Complete the meal with cannoli which was a perfect ending. So glad we find this gem in Kailua. Will definitely be back to try more items on menu. read more

Our server Zoe was wonderful! Very friendly. Unfortunately, the restaurant management failed miserably. On a Monday evening at 7 pm they were out of several entrees. We didn't intend to order those items, but still it seemed odd to be out of several entrees. They were also out of my first red wine choice, and then out of my second choice. We were told that they were out of most of the red wines. Then they were out of house bread. Our garlic bread appetizer was served with very old stale bread and under-cooked garlic. They were also out of vanilla gelato, which is an ingredient in quite a few of the desserts. Our actual entrees were tasty, so kudos to the chef for that. But there is no excuse for Baci Bistro to be out of so many food items. We will go elsewhere. read more

Baci Bistro is honestly one of my favorite Italian spots in Kailua, and the food is always really good. However, I've had ongoing issues with their takeout orders that have been really frustrating. Almost every time I order takeout for my family, something goes wrong. Either food is missing from the bag, the order gets mixed up, or items that were clearly ordered and repeated back to me somehow don't get put on the ticket and never get made. Unfortunately this has happened about six times now. Most recently, I ordered two piccatas, one chicken alfredo, bruschetta, and the three tomato salad. The hostess repeated the order back to me and confirmed everything was in the bag when I picked it up. When I got home, the chicken alfredo was missing. I called and was told it would be ready in 10 minutes, but when I drove back I ended up waiting about 40 minutes. By the time I got home again, the rest of the food was cold. The tomato salad was also missing most of the balsamic glaze this time, which normally comes with a good amount. I really do love the food here, which is why I keep coming back. I just wish the takeout process was more consistent because the mistakes and extra driving back to the restaurant have been disappointing. read more

Our group chose this great Italian restaurant that's quaint. We did a lot of sharing. We did the beet salad with goat cheese which was amazing, the classic Caesar salad, seafood risotto, pollo picante, spaghetti with shrimp, and the dessert sampler. All of it was amazing. Service was friendly but the food did take longer than usual to be brought out. Everyone had a great time so we'll be sure to do this again soon. read more

Great food, beautiful setting. Cute little Italian bistro. It's very breezy with back door propped open. Service was very slow though... the waiter was nice but Everything g from food, water, and dessert took forever to arrive. Our group of 8 dinner took TWO HOURS If you can refer a similar let menu item like regular spaghetti, they can accommodate. My husband likes a simple dish like spaghetti and meat sauce. They don't have meatballs though. We all enjoyed our food and they comped the birthday dessert for my husband. I highly recommend the cream brûlée OMG read more

We went to Baci Bistro for our anniversary dinner and had such a great experience. The food was really good and everything we tried tasted fresh and well made. There was live music which made the night feel extra special, and the staff was so friendly and welcoming the entire time. It honestly felt like the kind of place where they genuinely care about your experience. I have to mention the tiramisu because it was amazing. Easily my favorite part of the night and one of the best I have had. Perfect spot for a date night or special occasion. We will definitely be back. read more

An Italian hole in the wall in Kailua with cute decor. Unfortunately I was disappointed in the food. The appetizers were decent, ones you can't really miss the flavor target: caprese and the melon prosciutto. My husband didn't care for the prosciutto as it was too salty but I felt the melon was sweet enough to balance it all out. Caprese salad wasn't anything special, just something I love to have. Our immediate server was kind, calm and helpful constantly checking up on us so, great work Azziriah! The busser however seemed anxious and constantly moving back and forth making it hard to relax and enjoy. One off putting issue was that he kicked our already unstable table and was forgetful in apologizing, so that took away from star points. The main course food was quite bland and reason there was some flavor was due to the Parmesan cheese. When leaving the restaurant I did notice that they left the cheese block unattended near the open back door...... Definitely not a place I will be coming back especially if the bill came out to $138 and food was satisfying. The reason I was generous with the 2 stars is simply due to the decor and the main servers customer service. read more

We were a party of 4 on a Saturday night at 7:00PM. Our server, Gabe was friendly and knowledgeable. It was a very busy evening. We ordered a bottle of wine and the large beet salad to share. The evening started well, but the food service was extremely slow. We had waited for about an hour, Gabe came by to let us know our food would be up soon. We ordered a second bottle of wine and bread with garlic. The garlic was burnt, black and so hard that we weren't able to spread it. The bussers were quite young and seemed untrained. They weren't attentive and Gabe had to clear our plates. At one point I saw a busser sitting at the bar. I noticed a woman helping to expedite food. I walked up to her to ask if she could tell me if our order would be up soon, we'd been waiting for about an hour. The woman pointed to the table across from us and said, "See that table? They waited for an hour." I said "An hour is a long time to wait for entrees." The woman replied, "that's restaurants" and walked away. Our interaction was upsetting. I asked our server who she was and he said "that's our manager." I told Gabe about our conversation and he dropped his head like "not again". As the manager, I would have expected her to say something more like, "I'm sorry you've had to wait so long for your food. This is an unusually busy night and we're trying our best to get caught up. We appreciate your patience and let me check on your order." But she didn't. The fettuccine Alfredo was decent as was the beet salad. The scampi was cheap frozen shrimp, not scampi. Gabe ended up taking two apps off our check which was appreciated. The food was decent Italian food. There aren't many choices for Italian in Kailua. The restaurant was too bright, the lanai had a better ambiance. We won't go there again because of the poor management. read more

This place is located kind of on the corner or Aulike Street and is across Kailua Washerette. Ample meter parking with tap pay, card, and cash/coins located behind the restaurant. Main entrance on Aulike but you can also enter from the back adjacent to the parking lot. Open air, fairly comfy seating indoors and out. We had a 630 reservation and were seating immediately on a Thursday. Service with Zoe was super friendly and super receptive. The food was tasty! I had 2 cocktails but forgot to snap a Pic. I ordered the truffle gnocchi and added grilled chicken. Yum. I think we'll be returning!! Btw-the pear salad was yummy!!! read more

Met my husband long time friends when he use to play basketball back in the days. Lol. We arrive at 5pm at was greeted right away and was seated to our table. Looked over the menu and I knew what wanted seafood risotto. For an appetizer we ordered beet salad with goat cheese and drizzle of balsamic vinegar dressing. My husband ordered ossco bucco and one of the friends ordered the same. The wife ordered same like me and her husband ordered squid ink pasta with scallops. Was very good. Our dessert was chocolate Gelato and my husband friend ordered cheesecake and cannot. Everything came on time didn't wait to long except the dessert was taking along time. Yes it was busy but it was Gelato, cheesecake and cannoli. Other than that it was good. read more

Good friends and good food. It was our second time at this Bistro. The restaurant has a nice clean feel to it. Inside and I patio seating. We entered a few minutes before they actually opened but we were seated.The Friendly staff was attentive. Service was a little slow towards the end when we ordered our desserts. Our table had two orders of Roasted Beet salad to share. It was refreshing. The goat cheese and the vinaigrette with a reduction of balsamic vinegar gave the salad it's kick. Five stars awarded. My friends wife and my wife had the Risotto Com Frutti Di Mare. They both enjoyed the risotto. One person had the ink squid pasta which he ordered the last time we were there. Two of us had the special of the night which was the Osso Bucco. Served on a bed of risotto with a demi glace sauce. Tasty and tender. I even brought home some leftovers. As we were leaving the manager gave us a friendly thank-you. Enjoy read more

This was my first time at Baci Bistro and if I lived in the area, I'd likely make it a go-to place! There's metered street parking available along the front and a paid parking lot just behind the restaurant as well. Our group was there for a birthday celebration and we had a party of 7, including 2 kids. I think smaller party sizes are better, because they can get you in and out quickly, but they definitely do accommodate more folks if you need it. We didn't make a reservation, so not sure if they offer them, but we got there just as they opened and we're seated relatively quickly. Our server, Cheynell, was excellent! She was patient with the little ones, friendly and attentive to our needs through the meal, answered our questions, and made helpful recommendations. The only negative part of our experience here was the wait time to get our food was quite long. The kids orders went in early so they could eat, but they were already done before the rest of our food came out... Thankfully, the food was absolutely delicious!! The portions were appropriate serving sizes, but my food was so good I definitely wished there was more! If you're in Kailua, it's definitely worth trying out... read more

Not our first visit to this Kailua staple, and definitely won't be our last! As always the service is very friendly and attentive. The food comes out at the right pace and fresh. Restaurant is cozy and has a lively vibe. Every dish we've tried over the years have been great. I really must recommend the risotto con porcini and add on some scallops! Or for pasta you gotta get the truffles gnocchi! Plus if you like cheese, the mascarpone cheesecake is a must! P.S. I would recommend making a reservation if possible, as this spot is always pumping! read more

Loved this place for dinner! We had a group of 15 and they accommodated us so well. Service was great and relatively fast for the big group size, prices were reasonable, and food was delicious! Pretty casual and affordable but food quality was still really good! We got almost everything on the menu and nothing really disappointed. Highly recommend the dish with squid ink linguini and scallops! They offered to grate fresh cheese on everything at the table. Good assortment of appetizers, main course, wines and deserts. The dessert sampler was especially amazing and lets you try a little taste of them all. 4 stars only because it was reallyyy hot inside, AC didn't seem to do much because the doors were kept open, and ceiling fixtures above tables could probably use a cleaning but overall I would still definitely come back!

From entry greeting to done eating not impressed Almost like we were an inconvenience to staff not very welcoming or professional and I'm a fairly chill person We live in Kailua but usually go to Honolulu for Italian. Beet salad was just ok I had the Rigatoni con Salsiccia and the sauce was way too salty and not much taste other than salt. Could not eat it. Did not send it back just caulked it up as a learning experience If your looking for good Italian this is not your place Just thought I'd try this place since it's close to home, but now I realize the drive to Honolulu is worth it read more

Always a fun time at this family run restaurant that we've been coming to for years. Cozy spot for family dinners, meeting up with friends, and special occasions! For apps we usually get bruschetta, calamari steak, and salads. The calamari was so tender at this visit! My favorite is the Linguine Nere Con Capesante (Squid ink linguine with scallops, mushrooms and sundried tomatoes in a saffron cream sauce). It'll have you wanting to scrape the bowl clean with bread, that good. The scallops on top were also very tender at this visit. Osso bucco with risotto, a special weekly dish is another family favorite if you want something heavier. Nice wine selection too. Easy street parking around the restaurant/neighborhood. read more

Writing this review honestly makes me sad and extremely disappointed because I loved this restaurant. I came here more than once a month, recommended it to others, and considered myself a regular. My family came to visit, so I decided to bring them to a restaurant I genuinely loved. My family is low income, and I wanted to pay for the meal, but my mom ended up paying, which was fine. My 85-year-old grandmother then left a $20 tip. I already planned on giving more after my family walked away. What happened next completely changed my view of this place. The staff started talking badly about my family, complaining that a $20 tip wasn't enough, and the waitress was making rude faces and acting extremely disrespectful. They had no idea I was planning to leave more. A $20 tip from an 85-year-old woman who doesn't work should be appreciated, not mocked or criticized. Their behavior was incredibly rude, unprofessional, and honestly embarrassing. Iused to love this restaurant and recommend it to people. After today, I will never come back. Good food is not worth being treated--or having my family treated--with that level of disrespect. read more

First time to Baci and it was absolutely one of the best restaurant experiences I've had. Everything was ridiculously delicious and the service was spectacular. Definitely a must try! We will 1000% be back soon read more

Looking for a second stomach because the rigatoni con salisiccia pasta and desserts are too good and I feel too full to eat everything, but it's definitely worth returning to try other desserts! The chocolate decadence is a THICC cake (my fav). It's almost like a dense brownie and wonderfully tasty. The panna cotta is lighter and fresh, but also just as sweet. You cannot go wrong with either! read more

I was very disappointed in the dining experience at Baci Bistro on May 7, 2026. Our waiter was very young and inexperienced. He seemed nervous. My partner ordered a cocktail. A man behind the bar with a baseball cap and casual T-Shirt made the drink which took a long time to be served. We told the waiter we wanted to enjoy the cocktail first. The soup and salad came before the cocktail. I was eating my salad and I found a long hair in the salad. The waiter asked if I wanted him to take the salad away. I said yes I could not eat it anymore. He did not offer me another salad or refund. My partner ordered Saltimbocca Di Vitello for $40. He said the veal was very thin and there was hardly any cheese in the entree. I had a Fusilli Vegatables for $25. Both meals were over priced. We were still enjoying our meals with a pause in eating and another waiter asked if we wanted a box. We said we were not finished eating. The waiters rushed the entire dining experience. When the bill came the prices did not match the prices on the menu. We told the waiter and he said he would tell the manager. The food is overpriced and the service was very poor. Baci Bistro is not an experience in fine dining. A very unpleasant dining experience for a Birthday celebration dinner. read more

We came here to celebrate a birthday. Parking was easy to find for a Saturday afternoon on the street and in the back lot. We RSVP'd for 13 and was seated quickly but.... we were seated outside :( It was SO hot with no wind so it was very uncomfortable. The waiter was great, the food selection was good.. it was really hard to make a choice, thankfully Yelp helped with that! It was about $25-30 per person, the food was just good, nothing super remarkable.. dessert ranged from $11-15 per person, we weren't a fan of any of it and we pretty much ordered one of everything. We all agreed it was good but not enough to come back and spend that much read more

Baci Bistro is our favorite family Italian spot! It's within walking distance, and they serve delicious food and drinks. Everyone we've encountered has been friendly and provides efficient service. It's a smaller space compared to typical restaurants in the area, but it's warm, inviting, and intimate. It's a wonderful place to catch up with friends over outstanding Italian cuisine or to celebrate a birthday with family. They also offer optional outdoor seating in their lanai. I usually reserve online to avoid any wait and to request my preferred seating. My go-to favorites are the squid ink pasta with scallops, the beet salad, and--depending on my mood--either the classic tiramisu or the decadent in-house chocolate cake. Yum! We'll truly miss this place as we move back to Seattle, but it will definitely be one of our must-visit stops whenever we're in town! read more

My girlfriend and I went here for Valentine's Day and it was an absolute wonderful and lovely experience. We made 5:00 PM reservations on the lanai in front of Baci Bistro, as we knew it was going to get crowded as the evening went on, and it's a good thing we did just that. The food is absolutely amazing and our server Tanner did such an excellent job taking care of us, giving recommendations and answering any questions we had about the menu items and dishes! Very friendly and attentive to our needs as well as checking up on us pretty frequently! As for the food, I had one of their 4 cheese ravioli specials and we shared some other appetizers along the way as well as the chocolate decadence with vanilla ice cream for dessert. The portions may look smaller, but they are absolutely rich in flavor and will definitely fill you up! There is street parking right in front of Baci Bistro and then two paid parking lots nearby. We would love to come back here in the future for another special occasion! read more

Baci Bistro recently reopened for lunch. We were excited to try the restaurant for my birthday lunch. We had a party of eight. Five of us ordered the fish special, the ono. I ordered gluten free pasta with my dish. The pasta was half cooked, and the fish was over cooked, dry and tasted burnt. Interestingly, the five special fish dishes came out with all different sizes and thickness of fish. It was very obvious the portions were not equal. I had two of the smallest and thinest pieces of fish, and uncooked pasta for my birthday dish! It was the worst fish dish I have ever tasted in my life. It was so bad, two of us sent our fish back. Our fish "Redos," came back plain with no sauce! One of the "Redos," the fish was barely cooked and was SENT BACK AGAIN!The chicken and sausage pasta dish arrived with NO sausage! I, including another diner in our party had upset tummies after eating at Baci Bistro. Absolutely a huge disappointment! I have dined at Baci Bistro in the past, with the original owners. Amazing food! This experience was awful. NEVER DINING HERE AGAIN! read more

It's one of my favorite Italian dining spots on the island. Parking is always a bit tricky since it's metered, but if you're lucky, you can grab a spot right in front. Otherwise, there are two lots, just behind the bldg and one across the street. On this occasion, I ordered some takeout to enjoy with my daughter at her place in town. I know she loves a great Fettuccine Alfredo, and this is one of the few places that serves a Veal Marsala (which I love), so these were a given to order. They also have a really great Caprese salad, with the freshest mozzarella and sweet red tomatoes. Along with a Caesars salad, this was a full meal. I placed my order over the phone, and everything was ready when I got there. Even after 20 minutes into town, the food was still at a good temp (hot entrees were warm and cold salads were cold) and delicious, as usual. Love their food and dine in service has always been great. They even have a Keiki (child) menu for the kids or light eaters. The wine list is fairly good, and they offer dull bar service. What more could you ask for. read more

The squid ink pasta with was delectable, 3 pretty small scallops, but perfectly cooked. The sun dried tomatoes were perfect for the saffron sauce, which was a very rich and unique tasting sauce; highly recommend the dish. My wife on the other hand was quite disappointed with the lobster ravioli. It only came with 4 ravioli and was more of a soup with ravioli in it. The taste was quite nice and the lack of size was redeemed by the free bread that was really good. We got the burrata special as an appetizer; kind of hate ordering specials because you never know how much it cost until it gets there, it was pretty much the spring mix from Costco with balsamic; but the mozzarella was really good, and the tomatoes were superb. ($16) Service was pretty slow, but they started to get pretty busy so it's understandable. Overall it's not really worth the cost, but the restaurant has a nice ambiance and friendly staff. read more
