The neon lights of Hong Kong glow among the world’s tallest skyscrapers, while the city’s pulse beats fast just steps away from the legendary Central–Mid-Levels Escalators—the longest outdoor escalator system on the planet.
But it only takes a moment to make time stand still.
In the heart of this vertical metropolis lies a corner where Asian energy meets the warmth of Italy. Welcome to BACI.
The name is no coincidence: It’s an open love letter to great food. Stepping inside means sharing a “kiss” with authentic tradition through a true masterpiece: Hong Kong’s top-ranked, award-winning pizza! Crafted with an expertly fermented dough that is perfectly crisp on the outside and airy on the inside, each slice is pure bliss.
Don’t miss our iconic star-shaped Stella pizza, packed with rich truffle ricotta hidden in the crust and topped with creamy, fresh Burrata.
At BACI, a passion for Italian cuisine blends seamlessly with the Hong Kong skyline, turning every evening into a perfect match between two worlds.
Born in Pisa, Roberto Marchi spent
years in front-of-house roles across Scotland, Tuscany, London and Sardinia before stepping behind the oven on the Ligurian coast. Pizza soon became an obsession, one that carried him through Southeast Asia and back to Italy to train under Neapolitan master pizzaiolo Davide Civitiello.
Since arriving in Hong Kong in 2020, he has become known for an exceptionally light, digestible, high-hydration dough built on Molino Paolo Mariani's Volare Forte flour.
Marchi took the helm at BACI as Master Pizza Chef in 2023. Under his direction, BACI has been ranked No. 17 in Asia-Pacific by 50 Top Pizza in both 2023 and 2024, No. 23 in 2025 and No. 24 in 2026, marking the restaurant's fifth consecutive year in the regional
ranking.
His "South of Asia" pizza also earned BACI the Best Toppings 2025/2026 award.
