Review Summary

Pacini is portrayed as a stylish, family-friendly spot where the bread bar and ambiance are major pluses, and service is praised when attentive and efficient. Positive notes highlight a welcoming atmosphere, good options for halal or gluten-free diets, and well-liked dishes such as certain pastas, salmon, and tiramisu, with the bread bar and wine list receiving frequent praise. However, reviews also show inconsistency: some meals arrive overcooked or underseasoned, portions can be small, sauces lack flavor, and prices are often considered high for the value. Service speed and table layout are common frustrations, with reports of slow service and tables that feel crowded or hard to navigate. Some visits are highlighted for strong family-friendly experiences and great dessert choices, while others mention dull or disappointing meals and miscommunications in service. Overall, Pacini seems worth trying for the ambiance and bread bar, especially for casual gatherings, but potential diners should expect variability in food quality and value.

The food was 2/5.. drink from the bar was 1/5.. I ordered a NY strip steak & for the price it should have been perfect.. was bit tough & I ordered it medium.. service was 3/5... I personally think the prices are too high for the bland food, the restaurant is nice but the food absolutely sucks! Sadly

The decor at Pacini is really nice & the food was cooked properly. We ordered the steak platter & a pizza, & everything was enjoyable. I also appreciated the great variety on the kids' menu at a very affordable price my daugther enjoyed it.
Unfortunately, our experience at the entrance could have been better. Although the restaurant seemed quite empty, we were seated near the door on a very cold day while dining with our young daughter. We were also asked if we were finished while our table was still full, which made the meal feel a bit rushed. Overall, the food was good, but the service experience left us a little disappointed.

Le service était excellent. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le menu Halal. Nous avons commandé la salade kale avec morue & le steak New York strip. Les deux étaient délicieux. L'entrée d'olives frites avait bon goût mais vraiment trop salée, ils auraient dû rincer les olives avant d'ajouter la panure. Finalement, l'ambiance, le point faible du restaurant. Les tables à deux qui longent le mur arrière sont beaucoup trop rapprochés. Nous pouvons entendre facilement les conversations des tables avoisinantes. De plus, il était difficile de passer entre les tables sans sentir qu'on envahissait nos voisins. Même quelques serveurs se sont trompés lors de la distribution de repas, ayant de la difficulté à identifier la bonne table. L'ambiance aurait été grandement amélioré si ils auraient retiré une des tables peu crée un peu d'espace entre chaque couple & augmenter l'intimité.

Food poisoning, spaghetti bolognese without beef, mid tartare with a 16$ up charge for a small side of fries, chewy steak, & a server that gave himself extra tips on top of completely changing his attitude because he was unsatisfied (mind you the bill was expensive, so the tips were already high)

First time going to Pacini's & I gotta say I'm impressed overall.

From start to finish, we had excellent service & the food/drinks were perfect, only complaint I would say is the pasta was a little dry. Everything on the menu is well organized & appealing, & surprisingly informative to our tastes. They give vegan, keto & halal options which is quite nice for them to go out of the way.

The instant bread bar to start off was a welcomed surprise. We ordered a prosciutto pizza, a plate of linguine alfredo with added chicken breast, & a plate of steak with sea salt from Sicily. Everything was rich & flavorful down to the last bite.

Will most definitely come again!

Superbe décor, très chic, service impeccable, wifi, beaucoup de stationnement.

J'ai choisi le festin à deux. La nourriture était supposée être servi sur une plaque chaude. Ma plaque était froide. Le steak semble avoir été réchauffé. Il n'était pas chaud, dur & élastique. J'étais déçu.

J'apprécie toujours le bar à pain. Mon Pina Colada était une des meilleures que j'ai eu jusqu'à maintenant: bonne quantité, pas trop sucré, la quantité juste de Pina & d'alcool.

Je reviendrais probablement, mais j'essayerais quelque chose d'autre.
