Had a great time celebrating my girlfriend’s birthday at Bacchus. The food was outstanding and the service and attention to detail was commendable. Would recommend anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion to choose Bacchus!

We enjoyed our evening here, though it was not quite to what we expected. Brightly lit (maybe catering to an older clientele) and very slow on a Saturday night (surprisingly?). Excellent service, beautiful ambience, but food did not quite hit the mark – flavors were on point but some lacking proper executions.

We hosted 20 for our 50th wedding anniversary in the private dining room. Chris, Peter and Antonio attended to every detail from help with the wine selection, to menu description, to impeccable service. The food was outstanding.

Our first time to Bacchus celebrating our anniversary, and we couldn’t have had a better experience! Not only did the staff sign a card at our table, but we were treated to some champagne and even left with a little goody bag. The service was fantastic and the tasting menu exceeded my husband’s expectations spectacularly. Our only regret was not talking to the Sommelier because we felt intimidated, only to have met Chris after the fact and he was completely approachable. Thanks for the great time and we will definitely be back!

Very professional wait staff. They are well trained. Open, airy and welcoming dining room. The tasting menu is well constructed and contains some exceptional items like pheasant and some, like filet and scallops, that will appeal to more consecutive tastes. The dishes are well presented and shows care. Fairly large portions for this type of dining. I would have preferred a smaller one but this is the Midwest and maybe the expectations are different. Very good wine list and the cocktails are very good especially considering the very reasonable prices for the drinks AND the food. We had a very pleasant dinner.

We are speechless huge shout-out to the amazing chefs this evening! Bacchus had a wonderful dining room with plenty of space and a quiet atmosphere. My only wish is that they have more updated gender-neutral or family restrooms to expand upon the people they may serve. The food which I rated out of 10 below was under-salted but it pushed the envelope of fine contemporary cuisine of today. This menu has to be one of the best they’ve ever had! The flow of the service is exemplary and the wait staff is always diverse and professional! I forgot to add the bill because I didn’t want to see it! THANKS!

We celebrate our anniversary this past weekend. We were a little late and the still accommodated us and got us a table. The restaurant is beautiful some of the waiters looked very stressed, it was Saturday night so I’m assuming it was busy. We waited only for like 5-10 min before being seated to our table. I don’t if it was the scallops that was being cooked or a sewer issue the whole place smelled fishy. This was my second visit at this restaurant and I didn’t smell that before. Our waiter was very nice and informative about the menu. Everything tasted amazing, portions is what you would think for fine dining (small) but blasting with flavors. We had the 5 course and loved everything. The smell of the place was weird but it was tolerable.

We’ve come here several times and the good is always amazing. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The only critique I have is that I ordered an Amaretto Sour and it was very mediocre. For being such a nice restaurant and having had amazing drinks from the bar in the past, it was disappointing to have a classic cocktail be done so poorly. Otherwise, I would recommend this restaurant to anyone. We love coming here!
