    The first time I had dinner here. I was very impressed with the decor, food and service. We really enjoyed the music too! Stayed after dinner (and dessert) for some socialization at the bar afterward. Had a pleasant time overall. Definitely would recommend having dinner here for any kind of celebration.

    Food was absolutely delicious! We are normally spoiled by being food travellers and living in a big city, but the food ambience and service here were over the top. We will be back.

    Service was decent was very busy. I got a filet which was supposed to be medium. The steak was crispy on the outside and more well. The potato thing was cold in center. Which I expected everytime it cones on a dish the center is cold. The sauce under steak I was not impressed with it did look appealing. My friend got salmon which was very good. Our desser tiramisu was delicious.

    Another great meal last night at Bacchus. The special, halibut with crusted shrimp was great. I opted for the spicy sauce on the side. Tiramisu was delicious, very light and worth the calories.
