Good, but Not Worth the Price.. I was able to go to The New Yorker last evening. I ordered the filet mignon with gorgonzola-panko crust, broccolini, and mushroom jus mashed potatoes. I also had the house soup which was minestrone. I enjoyed the soup, but I did not think it was anything spectacular and would probably not order it again. The filet itself was average, but the panko crust was delicious. The mushroom potatoes were also good, but I had a taste of the smoked gouda potatoes and those were excellent! I also was able to try the salmon, but I honestly thought it tasted a little fishy and was a little tough. I'm sure at a restaurant like this they would be willing to cook another salmon filet, but you still take your chances. I ate with a larger group and at the end of dinner we all ordered our own desserts so I was able to taste many different dishes. The cheesecake was smooth, creamy and good, but I like the Cheesecake Factory cheesecake better. The homemade caramel is wonderful, the apple pie is very good, the crème brulee is good and so is the short cake. Mmm. Desserts here are great.



My bill for two people included two entrees, a soup and one dessert and came to about $120. I was a bit disappointed in the food for that price, but I'm still glad I was able to go, although I can't say I will be back soon.

I seriously think that the Gastronomy Inc. restaurants aren't as good as they used to be.

So sad it's gone... we'll miss you. Bacci was one of our very favorite spots. Yes, the hostess(s) could be curt. The wait (even with reserves) was an adjustment. But the rest of the experience was always top notch. I have many good memories of a very nice glass of wine with an exquisite meal, and always always always, a very personable waiter. I hope that Ruths Chris will keep the stained glass windows. Goodbye Bacci, we'll miss you!!!!!!

Favorite Mushroom Ravioli. The Forrest Mushroom Ravioli is unrivaled. It is delicious, and I crave it fortnightly. The Flatbread is amazing as well, and I always enjoy the Spinach Salad. Baci is extremely trendy: make certain to make reservations in advance. The waiters are amazing, but the hostesses could use a little help. I have twice arrived right on-time for my reservations, and was unapologetically asked to wait for over 20 minutes.

very nice. The place was warm and friendly. You couldn't go to the bar and have a drink while you waited for your reservations unless you had a membership. If you wanted a drink you will be drinking it in the waiting area. The place was quiet. I ate at a bar table and the service was great along with the food. The waitress was good but a little bossy.

This festive downtown restaurant is also known as Utah's Italian steakhouse.. The Scene
Baci's playful decor is heavy on homey Italian touches. Spin through the revolving door and see rows of jarred tomatoes and braids of garlic lining the walls. Piles of fresh yellow peppers brighten the long, open kitchen. Balcony dining offers a bird's-eye view of the boisterous scene below, and atop the grand staircase, a giant clock face smiles regally on the patrons and bustling kitchen.

The Food
A half-dozen prime aged beef entrees complement the more familiar pastas, pizzas and scaloppine dishes. Tasty starters include tomato and basil soup, and sauteed wild mushrooms. Wood-fired pizzas are topped with everything from prosciutto to roasted garlic. Pastas and entrees cover the Italian regions. A special oven ensures the high heat needed to create the outer crust and tender middle of a great steak. Add sauteed onions, peppercorn sauce, bacon and gorgonzola cheese for a richly flavored New York pepper steak. Fresh-baked desserts are large enough to share.
