    1) Right on the water… great vibe… very high end Cayman… loved it. 2) food was hit or miss…. Oyster we’re not that cold and no cocktail sauce, and ceviche in a red sausage… tasted a bit like spaghetti sauce out of a jar… sad face. But all the other food (gnocchi, deviled eggs, bread… all was really good!!!! 3) Finally the deserts (we had three) were really amazing!!! Service and friendliness is outstanding!!!
    BacaroResponded on May 6, 2025
    Hey Kenneth! Thank you for your detailed feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the beautiful waterfront vibe, outstanding service, and many of the dishes—especially the desserts! We appreciate your honesty regarding the oysters and ceviche, and we'll be sure to pass your comments along to the kitchen team for review. Your input helps us continue to improve, and we hope to welcome you back soon for an even more exceptional experience.

    Very nice restaurant with a pleasant atmosphere. Food variety and quality is good with primarily small plates. Could use more non-seafood meat options. Cocktail and wine menu are solid, but pricey - especially in USD! Overall a very good experience in a lovely waterside setting.
    BacaroResponded on May 6, 2025
    Hi Lance! Thank you for the thoughtful feedback! We're glad you enjoyed the atmosphere, food quality, and our waterside setting. We appreciate your suggestion regarding more non-seafood meat options and will certainly take that into consideration. We hope to welcome you back again soon for another great experience!

    The quality of the food was amazing but unfortunately I need to say that the service was poor. We ask for an americano coffee and the server brought a cocktail drink, we don’t asked for it and at the end of the day the drinks (americano) appeared on our bill . I never paid before for a mistake of the server.
    BacaroResponded on April 15, 2025
    Hi Aldo Thank you for your feedback. While we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the quality of the food, we’re truly sorry that the service fell short during your visit. It’s never our intention for guests to feel disappointed, especially due to an error on our part. We completely understand your frustration regarding the mix-up with the drinks, and we sincerely apologize that this wasn't resolved properly before you received the bill. We’ll be following up with our team to ensure this kind of mistake doesn’t happen again. If you're open to it, we’d love a chance to make things right. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at enquiries@bacaro.ky. We hope to welcome you back for a much better experience.

    Good was amazing and service ! Could be slightly bigger portions on the chef taster menu but that’s only cause I’m a big eater
    BacaroResponded on April 15, 2025
    Hey Jared! Thanks so much for the great feedback! We’re so happy to hear you loved the food and service—it really means a lot. And we totally get it… our chef’s tasting menu is all about flavor and experience, but for big appetites like yours, we might just need a “hungry edition” 😄. Hope to see you again soon!
