    The food tasted good. The entrees were very small. No salad or bread came with the meals. The food was definitively overpriced. Unfortunately, we will not be returning with a total cost of 160.00 and leaving the establishment still hungry.

    Wonderful pasta dishes. My husband enjoyed his steak as well. I had the special, the ragu, which was outstanding. The sides are generous, so quite shareable. We'll be back soon!

    My party of three had an excellent experience at Baia Coastal Italian Kitchen. We enjoyed the calamari, fried mozzarella, sausage and broccolini pizza, and creme brulee. The service was exceptional, and we highly recommend this restaurant.

    Portions were small and inconsistent. The capaccio had 3 small pieces buried under a mound of arugula - it was tasty but tiny. I'd have to try it again to be sure if this place is worthwhile or not.

    Excellent food and service. There are not many Italian restaurants that offer gluten-free options with trained staff that can answer questions without checking with the kitchen each time. We've dined here 3-4 times and each server was excellent. Food is excellent. Gluten free Setteveli cake is heaven.

    This was our second visit. We can really recommend the Fritto Misto; it was lightly breaded and the calamari was cooked just right. The pesto and aioli were perfect complements. The lemon, lemon, lemon dessert is to die for.

    Wanted to try something different. Made a reservation on Open Table app. I was expecting an early dinner but apparently @3pm the kitchen closes for an hour to get ready for dinner. Our reservation was 2:45pm and we were told we had until 3:15 to place all our order, which caught us off guard. Then we were caught off guard that the menu was only weekend brunch until 3pm. Dinner menu started at 4pm. We asked to sit at a table to see the water but we’re told that area was only high top tables, which 2 of our party members could not sit on due to a bad hip and bad back. So, we were seated at the front, viewing the road. NOW, I must say, the decor in this place is beautiful, from the front to the back. Everywhere you looked had fitting decor, even the water cups, which I thought were table candles. Although it was a “brunch” menu it had regular non breakfast choices. We ordered the mozzarella fritte starter with vodka sauce…OMG delicious. We ordered entree’s gnocchi, steak and eggs and an interesting spaghetti dish that had green sauce and no meat. All dishes (except spaghetti dish) was delicious. We wanted dessert but were told the kitchen was closed. Staff was super friendly, ambience was nice and majority of food was delicious.

    We had a wonderful experience at Bahia Coastal Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar last night. Our server, Justin, was super friendly and knowledgeable about recommendations. The food came out quickly and was hot when it arrived at our table. The food was amazing and service was stellar. We will be coming here again!

    Happy hour was great— had the chance to try two mixed drinks and two on-tap wines. The mixed drinks were not too sweet and very fun. The fried cheese (mozarella fritte) was SO good, and we also tried the carpaccio. While not on the HH menu, it was also delicious! Service was friendly and very attentive. We would definitely recommend!

    Our waitress was fantastic. Don’t remember her name but she was so patient with my in laws and the rest of our family. Food is always fantastic, I always get the burrata toast and the gnocchi. 10/10 each time. My mom got the Caesar salad and hubs got the Pepe. Wasn’t as good since they special made it for him since it’s no longer on the menu. Dessert was always great, kiddo got gelato with her meal and we shared the lemon lemon lemon and I could eat it ALL day. Thank you Baia for always being consistent and having a great ambiance and experience.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our experts Baia celebrating my dads 76th birthday. The food was wonderful, the service was cheerful and enthusiastic. The food was top notch and a fair price for the quality of food. We had branzino, pasta pomodoro, cheese pinsa, and the scallop pasta special. We ended the meal with a dessert special, that should be added to the regular menu because it was delicious…if you are there and they offer the chocolate coconut tart, you must get it! We will certainly be coming back!

    We arrived a little early for our reservation, but were seated right away. Our server, Aleah, was amazing!!! She shared specials in detail and we did not feel rushed at all throughout our meal. The lobster lumeche was delicious! Not a fan of the bench seating right by the door, but now we know for next time to ask for a booth or table a little farther inside. We will definitely return!
