"Set back from the beach in a spacious shopping center, Barsha is the kind of unpretentious restaurant that South Bay residents probably don’t want anyone outside of their zip code to know about. We’re sorry to them—this indoor-outdoor North African restaurant is too charming and reasonably priced not to share. There’s a good mix of small plates like falafel sliders and roasted cauliflower alongside larger, shareable entrees like juicy lamb meatballs or a rich seafood stew, all of which cost less than $30. And since the owners also run a wine shop nearby, you’ll find a fairly priced list that offers various-sized pours." - nikko duren
