We were never seated for our reservation. Our reservation was for 5:30p. We checked in a 5:20p, and at 6:30, we still had never been seated and had to leave.

It has been several months since we visited the establishment. I believe there have been some menu changes and the food just wasn't what I call. Great it was OK. I did the portion sizes have shrunk significantly compared to what we used to get in general. It's great at atmospheric, if you're celebrating with family or friends definitely place to go to. But for us being patron for the past several years, we were just not impressed with the overall experience at this time.

Bacchus Wine Bistro is one of those rare places that gets everything right. The happy hour is fantastic and crazy good value, the charcuterie boards are beautiful and really the best in town (we’ve tried a lot!!) and the ham sandwich (jambon blanc!) is absolutely delicious. The tuna carpaccio- just order it!! Also, most dishes come with a side of French baguette that will make you feel like you are in Paris! But what truly makes Bacchus special is the people. From the moment you walk in, everyone makes you feel genuinely welcome. The service is attentive, friendly, and authentic, creating an atmosphere that feels both elegant and comfortable. Even if someone isn’t your server, everyone makes a point to check your table and make sure everything is ok and say hi. Whether it's your first visit or your fiftieth, the staff goes out of their way to make you feel like a valued guest. Great wine, great food, and even better hospitality. Bacchus has quickly become one of my favorite spots, and I can't recommend it highly enough.

I’ve lived in the area for years and cant believe this was my first time trying! Our service was awesome, and the wine and food were sooo good. The only downside was how loud it is inside, but if you’re looking for an energetic atmosphere, this is a 10/10 place! Im sure the seating outside is a little quieter and perfect in the non-summer months. I’ll definitely go back! I was impressed!
