Meanwhile, seafood aficionados should not miss the branzino, grilled to perfection with a delightful salsa verde for CA$45.00. Each main is carefully crafted with seasonal garnishes that amplify the freshness of the ingredients.
Not to be overlooked, Bacaro excels in its side dishes—or contorni—with roasted potatoes and crispy capers for CA$11.00, and whipped ricotta paired with roasted carrots adding a touch of sophistication to your dining experience.

We tried the chef’s tasting without knowing what would be on it and it was fantastic! Amazing wine pairings as well, the limoncello was a stand out. The courses were surprisingly large and we left more than satisfied. The course pacing was a bit quick though, and the majority of the next course’s wines were brought out before we had finished our previous course’s wines.
We had dinner at Bacaro tonight, and I must say, the food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish was bursting with flavor and made with exceptional quality. However, what truly elevated the experience was the impeccable service. We were fortunate enough to be served by Spencer, who was hands down THE MOST attentive and detail-oriented waiter I've ever met. He didn't miss a single detail, was incredibly mindful, and went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was perfect. He knew the menu inside and out, and when it came to my gluten allergy, he effortlessly pointed me to the best options (they have so many gluten free options!!). This place is an absolute MUST!
We were visitng and our big group came here on a Saturday night without a reservation but they were able to accommodate us. Service is topnotched considering we had two toddlers with us. We had no idea they were Michelin guide resto so it was a plus. They know their wines too and what pairs well with their food. Definitely get the calamari, mussels appetizer, scallops risotto, and their tiramisu!
Came here for lunch and enjoyed my pasta and salad. Decided to return another day for dinner explicitly because I saw they offered a chefs menu but to my dismay it turns out they won’t offer it to you if you’re a solo diner (2 guest minimum). I wish they’d had warned me on the menu they have on their website beforehand. Defeated, I went ahead and just got the bigoli. Luckily it was super delicious and I enjoyed myself regardless. The ambiance at dinner is lovely - low lighting, candle-lit tables, and an intimate, cozy feel. It would make an excellent spot for a date night or a relaxed evening out. Service was friendly, quick, and efficient!!
Their chef’s menu is exquisite. Delicious food, tons of variety, and they accommodated me being a pescatarian so well. I didn’t miss out at all. Shout outs to Mathilde for her phenomenal service.
The atmosphere at this restaurant is delightful, and the food takes you on a wonderful culinary journey. Every dish I tried was fantastic, and the staff were not only friendly but also skilled at offering excellent recommendations without being intrusive. Two standout items were the Lobster Pappardelle, which was beautifully complemented by a rich, creamy saffron butter sauce, and the tiramisu, an indulgent treat that paired perfectly with a bold double espresso. Overall, I highly recommend this dining experience!
We ordered the rigatoni con pesto and the tagliolini ai gamberi dishes. The pastas were cooked to perfection with the al dante texture. The sauces were seasoned just right and were creamy. We didn’t realized it was a Michelin restaurant until we entered the venue. Service was attentive. Great lunch experience.
We were seated promptly and inquired about the Chef's Tasting and the possibility of a wine pairing. After a thorough and professional description we chose to put our trust in the chef. We made the right decision. The dishes were delicious, inventive, and appropriately portioned for a five course meal.we had wine pairings with every course but the salad and were enchanted by all of them. Great service, great food, and a good value.
