Reviews for 81 Bay Wine Bar | Baix Restaurant
David Beedles
The food was nice here. However as soon as they got even a bit busier, we felt like a second thought and were left waiting for 30 mins between main & dessert, without even an offer for a drink refill. It is such a shame, as our experience started so well. Not in a hurry to revisit.
Sabrina Potter

Jake
Went here with 5 of us and had an amazing time, Jack and the rest of the staff that served us and were very friendly and informative. The wine selection was top tier, we had 2 different reds that were sensational. Can’t go wrong with Italian! definitely a place worth visiting. 🙌🏽

Baix is an incredible restaurant located on bay street. It has a wonderful set menu and great variety. The service was great, and they were very friendly! The food was great and paired with nice wines. Overall a great experience!

This meal was a tale of two halves. A few tasty tapas style dishes started off the “chefs choice tasting menu”, so things were looking good, but then it stopped. For main we were given a very basic chicken schnitty and chips followed by an ice cream scoop of chocolate mouse sitting forlornly by itself on a plate. Not really what you expect from a restaurant positioning itself at the top end. It’s almost like the chef had to go home early and the work experience kid finished off the night.
