I can still remember the special Bacini’s restaurant had going during the last FIFA World Cup (2006). Free Beer if Italy wins! Who won again!? Should have been there for the final! Hope they continue this promotion for the World Cup 2010. Cape Town! It’s going to be insane! (Please let me know if this has not been updated after the WC)

 

But let me continue with my review (if you can call it that). I haven’t been to Bacini’s in ages. If I can remember correctly, it was with a couple of friends just before our Matric exams started – that’s quite a while back. So I did a little research before writing this. And I found mixed views. There are some that loved the food, but on the other hand, some found the staff very rude and impatient. I’ve been there a lot in the past and I enjoyed it each and every time. I never had to complain about the pizzas or the service.

 

Bacini’s is situated at the top of Kloof Street, Cape Town and offers a wonderful, cozy and relaxing experience. I always tried to get a table outside, so try and be there early or call and make a booking. The inside seems more like a bar than an actual restaurant. The pizzas are one of the best in Cape Town.

 

More recently I have preferred Col’cachio – their pizza is amazingly good and closer to home. But if you are looking for the true Italian experience, go to Bacini’s.
