I loveeee the mussels here. They have a spacious backyard and host a lot of parties/weddings etc. it's very pretty in warm months and cozy in the cold ones.

The mussels were fantastic! Great wine selection. Highly suggest the Margaux. Very authentic. Ask to sit in the garden. Our waitress was lovely!!

All you can eat Moules-frites on Wed! Slamming dessert, great wine list, beautiful dinning al fresco, amazing burgers & cafe next door. Steak special was too fatty 4 me. Le "sigh". Servers are great.

Been coming here for years and is one of my favorite neighborhood places. Always solid food, great staff, excellent wine list. I love the backyard in the warmer months.

Very nice place owned by very pleasant people. I recommend it for the food quality, service and for the hidden terrace behind. I spent a very nice moment with 2 of my friends.

Great lunch spot, especially on a nice weekend when you can sit in the garden. The salads are great; my favorite is the Goat cheese salad. Service has always been decent for me.

Tried a new place in the neighborhood...Bacchus ended up a mistake. Questionable ambiance/menu. If you want French, worth it to walk a few extra blocks to Bar Tabac or French Louie.

Authentic french cuisine. Wonderful staff. Super friendly and casual. Been coming here for years. Great food and great people.

Try their crab cakes - delish! Presentation is everything (thumbs up)

Owner's take: According to the hands-on owners, the wine's the thing—many by the glass, 200 by the bottle, plus a focus on bar food like terrines, tartines, cheese, and charcuterie. Read more

Contrary to a couple of the other tips, we got good service here. And the lady totally had a cool French accent. Goat cheese appetizer rules. Salmon had too many lentils.

Sit in the back garden and enjoy some cornflakes crusted french toasts

I have had brunch, lunch and dinner here. Sometimes dessert and wine on Sundays. Everything is tasty- staff is super friendly, and champagne by the glass. Enough said :)

The corn flake crusted French toast was delicious!
Kevin SkobacDecember 2, 2014
Bacchus bakes some of the best croissants in the neighborhood. A perfect cafe for morning snack.

Absolutely loved everything about it. High quality food at a reasonable price, excellent service.
Giulio del BufaloMarch 29, 2015
Great little spot, the beef bourguignon is delicious and the wine list is excellent
CompassApril 21, 2014
Order the affordable three-course prix-fixe menu that highlights French classics.
Melody GambinoNovember 23, 2014
The left side is a restaurant with French fare and all you can eat mussels specials, the right an adorable bakery/cafe
Brian MasefieldJune 18, 2015
Extensive wine list and decent escargot. Staff is friendly but a bit rowdy with one another, so not a place for a quite convo.
BrooklynoiseJune 16, 2013
As much as we love the place, the service is becoming sketchy. We had to wait for more than 30 minutes for a table we reserved. None of the tables around were served. A pity..the food is great though!

Lamb yumm! Salade Bacchus Bon! This place is great! Wine is great! Service is great! Atmosphere is great!

Good neighborhood French joint with a nice backyard.

As others have noted, beautiful garden and nice quality of food. As also noted, service is spotty - friendly enough but slow even when the place isn't busy.

Sacrebleu, the service here is so comically poor it's like a Monty Python skit about a French cafe, but the garden is lovely and the Croque Madame is excellent.

Escargot & the burger are both really good

The chocolate mousse dessert is delicious and is fun to share with your girlfriend.

Nice mussels place with a really nice garden.

The backyard was pretty, but the croque madame was out of this world!
alice brennanOctober 11, 2012
LOVE Bacchus! Come, enjoy the croissants, cute atmosphere and wifi!
Raphael DeSouzaMarch 8, 2014
I was excited for the pork belly but it was pretty mediocre. Good ambiance and service, aside from waiting 15-20 min for our reservation.
Elaina PowlessJuly 27, 2014
Good for brunch, sit in the back patio if you can
Richard LouissaintOctober 25, 2021
Artichoke salad. Salmon and chocolate mousse
David WeinertFebruary 24, 2018
They took eggs Benedict off the menu!

Amazing wine list
Stephanie MassineAugust 11, 2013
The outdoor space is really nice. Don't get the crêpes - they're soggy and too thick. Service is slow.

Tues night is all you can eat mussels :)
BrooklynoiseDecember 23, 2013
This place is getting worse and worse. 40 min wait for lunch with nearly empty place. The meat was greasy and the salad was drown in a ton of sauce.
RafeSeptember 22, 2011
Try the brandade. Salty. Buttery. Fishy in a good way.
JaseMay 8, 2010
The wine list is thicker than an encyclopedia! You won't be disappointed.
