  • Catering
    Baci’s specializes in catering! We specialize in drop off and full service catering. Please contact us to discuss your catering theme and we will be happy to plan your event. We require a minimum order of $100 for catering. Catering prices mostly based on entree size portions. Pricing will be lower in many cases if ordering is made in the form of platters and chaffers. For example, our pasta and salads are priced as entrees. We can cut both prices per person if you order on platters and chaffers because each plated food portion would be less than ordering Ala carte.
  • Private party facilities

    The Beef Stroganoff is my go dish, and again, it did not disappoint! Tried a new drink… The Godfather, absolutely delicious: bourbon and Disaronno and orange peel… Absolutely flavorful! Try it, you will like it too!

    Very good heaters available for all the outside tables; we were toasty warm and able to enjoy people-watching during dinner. Food and service were good.

    The service was terrible and the food was served cold.. We had to ask and in several times we had to physically get up and look for our waiter and busboy when we wanted to place an order, get the meal, coffee refill or clear dishes I tipped accordingly .

    We were celebrating my son's birthday. Baci bistro is his favorite restaurant for special occasions. We have never been disappointed in our meals. I usually get seafood but after a week on Cape Cod and Cape Ann eating seafood everyday I tried the lamb shank. It was melt in your mouth tender and delicious!

    Service was outstanding. Food was amazing. On the lunch menu, I had Eggplant Parmesan and my friend had Rock Cod. She couldn’t say enough about how much she enjoyed the dish.
