Bacchus

My mom and I come here every time she’s in town. She always talks about how good it is and how it’s her favorite restaurant in Richmond. The food is always delicious and the service is excellent. Parking is always easy to find on Broad. We’ve also gotten seated without reservations before, which can be difficult to find in the city.

The drinks were amazing! We got the Cesar salad as a starter and it was delicious! For entrees I got the chicken alfredo and I loved it! My husband got the shrimp and scallops in brandy sauce and wasn't impressed. We also got two sides, russet potatoes and brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were over cooked and the potatoes didn't taste like much. Overall, I enjoyed the experience but I don't know that I would go back or recommend it to anyone.

Best Italian food in the city!! However.. I’ve been coming here for years and unfortunately no matter what I do lately they only seem to care about their customers if they are older, rude and snobby. I’ve sat at the bar the last few times next to people who are openly not polite to the servers/bartenders and those people continue to get the smiles and good service. Meanwhile I feel I go out of my way to be relaxed, understanding and a simple guest with little to no personality in response from my server(s). Just so very unfortunate for such an amazing Italian spot with the best food.

This place is very unassuming. Being from out of town, it was suggested to me. Cozy, neighborhood atmosphere. Good drink selection, a good amount of menu options, which made it difficult to decide. The Chicken Picatta is so delicious. Tender, juicy and flavorful. It was filling without being too much. Service was quick. Make a reservation if you plan to go during a typically busy period. This will be my return spot during future visits to explore more of the menu.

Bacchus is a constantly awesome restaurant. Nancy as the general manager and Chris as the chef, they produce an absolutely authentic Mediterranean dining experience. This is NOT Olive Garden with pasta on the side. What you get is an amazing gastronomic experience true to it's roots. Duck breast, chicken piccata, scallops and prosciutto, wedge salad, tapenade, and chicken paté. Every bite was heaven. Nancy, the co-owner waited on us. Her French giblets are non pareil!!! I have been here numerous time and it only GETS BETTER!
