Bacaro Kitchen & Wine Bar 14021 Memorial Drive, Houston, TX 77079

"Perfect date night experience. Great atmosphere, food was delicious, and the Italian cream cake was the best I’ve had locally. Will definitely dine there again."

"My wife and I have eaten here a few times and have enjoyed each visit. We’ve been in for wine and appetizers and 3 course meals, and have yet to leave unhappy. We chatted with the owner and learned that he tastes and chooses each wine on the list. Taste, hospitality, and quality are in no shortage at Bacaro!"

"I stopped in for a happy hour, and discovered a great new place on Memorial Drive. This is a wine bar that also has beer and the food is quite exceptional. It's a small place that is run personally by the owner. He was ever present walking around making sure everyone had what they needed and giving suggestions about wine. This is our kind of place and we will definitely be back and I will take some photos next time."

"Came here last night while on a work trip. Sat at the bar and was immediately greeted and serviced. Got to meet Bill and he took care of me and my food choices. I had the lasagna which is one of my all time favorite foods and it was so delicious, perfect amount of cheese and seasoning. The rest of the menu looked good too and I am sure I will be back on my next trip. They also have an extensive and impressive wine list with a good variety offered by the glass. I highly recommend trying this restaurant if you haven’t yet."

"Pretty wine bar with a family friendly feel. This place is very small, but with that comes the intimate atmosphere. They have a decent sized patio right off the front entrance of the restaurant. When you enter the doors of the restaurant, you are immediately inside the dining area with the L shaped bar a few steps from the door. Like I said, it is very small. I chose this place because a friend of mine raved about it and I knew they would have the Astros game on that particular day. We sat at the bar and even though it was a post season game, they did not have the audio playing. My friend and I shared the Risotto and a small basket of bread with butter. We enjoyed a couple glasses of wine each and called it a night, for there anyway. It was imperative we get somewhere with audio to hear the game. I figured the noise of the game would take away from their finer ambiance. Completely understandable. I will definitely go back to try some additional dishes. The tables have linen napkins, for that finer touch. Everyone was welcoming and from what I gathered, seemed to be "regulars". At the bar area, you only have a choice of 10-12 seats maximum, but the people made room for us upon entering. I add this detail to show the accommodating energy. That's a huge plus for me. I don't like snooty places. I would classify this establishment as slightly upscale with a comfortable vibe. In other words, jeans and shorts are fine, but your check will not reflect jeans and shorts. I hope that makes sense. The small Risotto and 4 glasses of wine was $73.86 before tip. For the service, quality and atmosphere, it was worth it. Thanks to the staff for welcoming us newcomers! We will return and check out that patio in the next few weeks of gorgeous weather we hope to have coming!"
