Nice place with cool decor! Definitely more room inside than what it looks like on the outside. Good portions and attractive food, The chicken Alfredo is amazing and the lobster ravioli was good. We also had the frita mista (calamari and shrimp) as the appetizer. And the lemoncello cake and canoli for dessert. A couple glasses of wine and a beer. Totaling $125. So probably not your every night place.

Really great spot for a nice date night. Upscale vibes without being too fancy. Service is always great and friendly. Food always tastes amazing and feeds a family- best Alfredo I've ever had. My only complaints are that the inside feels tight/small and I wish the menu was bigger!

Bacco used to be the best restaurant in downtown Harrisburg. So I went in when I felt like a good whisky sour. They made it with mix, no egg. Decent pour, but bad drink. I tried the bruschetta to see if I maybe the bartender is having a bad day, or if the place had really gone downhill. The bruschetta bread was toasted hard, with the consistency of a saltine cracker. Not much bigger than a saltine, either. The topping was adequate, for the stingy slice of cracker toast, but it wasn't great. I can make better bruschetta at home. I think this place has changed owners, because the original owners wouldn't have served any of this.
Service was ok, nothing special.
There are much better bars than this on the carlisle pike.

This is a review of the Carlisle pike location. The food here is absolute garbage. Ordered a margarita pizza it came out with no tomato, minced basil, unseasoned sauce, under proofed dough and covered in grease. It's an Italian joint but they don't make any pasta in house. A salad was delivered to the table drenched in dressing and inedible. My honest objective opinion is when comparing this venue to other local restaurants Olive Garden and Dominoes' are better options, which is depressing.

You walk in the light is beautifully ambient. You're met with gorgeous smiles from the bartender. Directly to your right is the restaurant OWNER waiting on folks coming in, sorting out the business end of things. The food is supernal, simply heavenly and more Italian than My Cousin Vinny. I ordered the Orecchiette with a side of Bruschetta. It arrived quick but not too quick. My first, and last bite had me at a loss for words and I wasn't even starving. An experience I implore you to indulge in. Thank you guys I hope someone sees this and knows that Nino was blown away. Be well and Arrivederla, è stato un piacere. Buona giornata!

My family loves this restaurant!!! They gave us the best service and food for my son's graduation party/ dinner. Max (the owner) has created something special with all locations. I highly recommend this restaurant! Thank you for a great experience!

Go eat there, you will not be disappointed
The kids went on a senior trip (from Greensburg) into Harrisburg, to meet with Eric Nelson, and Kim Ward, and during their trip, stopped at Baccos. They arrived at 6:15 for their 6:30.... Then were told to wait until 7:00.... Then at 7:30 the guy comes out and says "sorry I lied, we can not seat you" and sent them on their way. Made them wait an hour and a half, then turned them away. On a Monday night. Do not recommend.
We had a group of 10. We were not aware that parties of 8 or more are billed together - no separate checks. Should have been made aware of this when reservations were made. Nor were we aware that paying by credit card would incur an additional 4% to the check until the check was received. Service was poor - slow to take orders for drinks, appetizers and entrees. Didn't receive meal until an hour and 15 minutes after being seated. Of course, gratuity was automatic 20% because of number of people in our party. Food was satisfactory.
