This isn't the Olive Garden or Maggiano's Little Italy. Doing business in the western suburbs? Bacio is the place to seal the deal. It's also a great celebration destination or a spot for slipping into the bar for a wood-fired pizza and a glass of Pinot Noir. The lengthy, something-for-everyone menu swings from good-looking salads and well-prepared pastas to a daily list of fresh seafood specials, a half-dozen different bruschettas and grilled meats. Dessert is a must; get the "lemon tasting plate" (which incorporates the tart citrus fruit into cookies, sorbets and cakes) or the smooth-as-silk gelatos.
