| - A M A Z I N G. I'm originally from NY and was visiting the area. This place blew my mind it was so good. We chose to do the tasting menu which was about 6 courses, complete with a cheese course and dessert. I paired it with the wines too. The wine list was definitely impressive. Lots of interesting wines at very fair prices. They are considered a wine bar, so I was hoping for a good list. But I was impressed with the prices, there were many bottles on the list for under $30 which is always great to me. It's easy to fill a list with great expensive bottles, but it is indeed very difficult to pick a variety of great wines at reasonable prices. The wines paired perfectly with each dish, I was so happy. About the food... I was just so impressed. The octopus over german potato salad was unlike anything I've ever had, and just so delicious. Yes, it does sound strange but it was so well done, and the octopus was cooked just perfectly, it was so tender. I was so thrilled the chef has decided to include this as one of the courses. We had a big scallop seared and served over corn salsa which was almost sweet but just delicious. We also had braised rabbit, which again was tender and also quite flavorful sitting in a pool of broth, with some tomatoes, and homemade pasta. The rib eye for the main course was flavorful and again very tender. The cheese course was fun. And I loved thin very rich slice of chocolate dessert. To be honest, I was simply amazed at the quality of these dishes. Sure it is a more expensive dinner out, but for the quality and caliber of the dishes, it is a steal!! This is easily one of my most memorable and favorite dining experiences. Easily 5 stars for Bacaro!!
