Barbaric - Review - Jesús - Valencia - The Infatuation
"About 10 or 15 years ago, new Valencian restaurants modernized and ditched the timeless stainless steel bar. Barbaric didn’t bother. It’s an old-school neighborhood spot that feels familiar yet fresh thanks to a killer natural wine list and a curated music selection that drifts from neo-soul to ’70s funk to modern indie. The menu shifts constantly but stays sharp, with things like fried oysters topped with sweet-spicy mango-habanero salsa that hits like a night in Mexico City, or duck tartare laced with gochujang for an extra umami kick. Barbaric believes high-end food shouldn’t be reserved for the folks with a second beach house and a boat—it’s a pull-up-a-barstool, light-up-your-tastebuds place, and easily one of the most exciting seats in town.

Loved this place! The experience felt like the perfect mix between tradition and experimentation, taking Spanish food to the next level with some delicious injection of foreign influences. Great wine list, great set up, great service… and they had the same plates my great grand mother had… quite emotional.

I went to dinner at Barbaric with my partner during a weekend in Valencia and I have to admit that Alex's cooking left us amazed. You can feel that the taste comes out of the experience.
Complementing the efood was Julia’s professionalism in managing the dining experience with her hospitality and detailed explanations of each dish.
We have thought about the experience very often and we cannot wait to return and try new seasonal dishes and explore more from their natural wine selection.

This is a place I keep coming back to. They have an amazing selection of wine and the food is always 10/10. I’ve recommended this place to everyone I know that visits València. Allergens are clearly understood by the team too which is always a real important for me.

Cool, laid back yet refined restaurant. Every bite is a journey, in simple words phenomenal. The wine was also splendid. The service was also very lovable and kind. Simply an amazing evening.

A wonderful restaurant. The layout and ambiance are perfect with the spotless open kitchen and friendly staff. All the food was excellent, but the Ostras Fritas and the Clochinas con Patatas really stood out.

Nice little wine bar with creative sharing plates and a good collection of natural wines, especially non-Spanish ones.

The best natural wine bar we tried in valencia! But with the surprise of AMAZING food. Honestly the food is innovative, yet simple, friendly, local and fresh. A small hard working team you have to love in these days of dying hospitality.
