| - What one would consider fine dining - especially considering the fact we're talking about Champaign - Bacaro's boasts of an extensive wine selection and the best of traditional Italian cuisine. We ordered the smoked salmon appetizer, and, because I wasn't feeling very adventurous, chose the oven roasted chicken as my entre. Overall, I found both these dishes a little too salty (maybe the chef was just having an off night?). The portions are modest, but you would probably expect a little more for the price you're paying. They did have a decent cheesecake and the check came out with a couple yummy chocolate chip meringues, but overall I guess I was a little disappointed.
In consensus with what many others have said, service was very attentive, but I felt it was almost to the point of pretentiousness. Based on this experience alone, I would most likely not recommend Bacaro's nor dine here again, but I really don't want to dislike this establishment and would like to come back again sometime in the future and give it another chance. Until then, I say stick with Radio Maria.
