Baci Bistro |

"Baci Bistro
bustles every night with the hum of Kailua residents catching
up with each other. Reza delivers rustic home cooking with
nice touches like sprigs of fresh rosemary. A special of
garlic soup, made with a potato base, is like addictive
roasted garlic nectar. Good housemade carpaccio is sliced
paper thin and topped with generous Parmesan shavings, capers
and olive oil. Puttanesca, pungent with anchovies, looks like
a mama cooked and dished it out. For such casual dining Baci
has an impressive wine list. No wonder the Kailua crowd
lingers." by Lesa Griffith, Honolulu Weekly, April

"Chef Reza Azeri,
Baci’s original chef, is still cooking each dish to perfection
-- subtly seasoning each masterpiece with fresh herbs. Every
dish is a unique delight. Pastas are home made. Baskets of
vine-ripened tomatoes are on display. Fresh baked Italian
bread is always served. And, the wine list, with a great
selection of Italian and California wines, is one of the best
on the island. Put this all together and add "affordable".

"This is perhaps
the best restaurant in the windward town of Kailua. The pastas
are always good, but the star of the menu is the grilled veal
chop marinated in olive oil with fresh herbs."

"This quaint
restaurant is so popular you will need reservations. The wait
is worthwhile. Have some wine to pass the time…the wines are
good! The food is divine. Not canned Italian cuisine with
bland sauces and predictable flavors. I describe this cozy
eatery on Aulike Street as innovative and spicy and unique. A
worthwhile drive into Kailua if you live in town, like I do! "
