Bacco - Mount Pleasant

Stopped in tonight with my wife and son had never been here before but found the staff to be friend and efficient! The food was awesome both entree and dessert!

Excellent, excellent, excellent this is Italian food not Italian American food. You will not be disappointed unless you call Olive Garden Italian food!

This was our first visit to Bacco and it was outstanding. My wife and I both had the chicken marsala wrapped in prosciutto. It was so delicious. The cannolis for dessert along with the limoncello after dinner liqueur was the perfect way to finish a beautiful Italian meal. Can't wait to go back and try the other entrees.

My wife had the pappardelle. It was outstanding! The home made pasta is superb. The atmosphere is nice. I however was somewhat disappointed in the Shrimp Scampi. The pasta was great too much lemon but the most egregious mistake for this dish is that the shrimp (a key ingredient) was cut-up into tiny pieces! Absolutely unacceptable Chef take notice. I will go back however I will not order this dish. We also ordered the roasted olives thinking they would be more robust in flavor. Well what we got was hot pan tossed olives! Hot from a pan. Very strange! We took them home, they were much better cold as they should be.To be clear, this is a very good restaurant, I just think they need to rework the scampi to include full size shrimp (not cut up). And, Fire Roasted olives should be just that, not heated up in a pan.

Off the beaten path… Homemade bread and fragrant olive oil was delectable. Housemade dressing on the tossed salad even made the frisée palatable. Simple, crisp first course. The star was the Mahi Francese! It was perfectly prepared and melted in my mouth. The accompanying roasted asparagus was perfectly al dente. I have eaten a lot of fish in a lot of restaurants and this may just be the best I’ve ever had. I have to go back someday to try their pasta. Cappuccino and a shareable portion of icecream with berries topped it all off! Highly recommend.
