What does Baci mean?

A word that means kisses.

Fresh seafood, hand-cut steaks and pasta made the way it should be, plated with the produce and the wine of Northern California folded in.

Lunch runs long, dinner runs late, and weekend brunch is worth the walk down Main. Stop by today and enjoy exquisite dining at your neighborhood Italian restaurant in downtown Pleasanton, minutes from Dublin, Livermore and San Ramon.

Every plate leaves the kitchen the way we would want it set in front of us. The Baci kitchen

The room

Intimate, low-lit, and yours for the evening.

Sixty seats in the dining room, sixty more on the patio for the evenings that allow it, and a full bar. Small enough that the server remembers your wine, big enough for the birthday.
