Barbary Coast

One of the best restaurants in CT, maybe all of New England. Drinks are unreal. Lamb was perfectly cooked. Smoked beets, next level. Branzino - a ton of flavor. Last but not least, the Crème Brûlée was by far the best I’ve ever had. 10/10 service as well.

This place is exceptional. You simply cannot get more authentic flavors, incredible service, quality ingredients, beautiful presentation….. We live in Florida, and if we could pick this place up and bring it home with us, we would in a second. Perfection. Happy hour was awesome, and our server Taya was a gem. Don’t miss out on this place!!!

WOW! I am over the moon to find a new dining option in Mystic other than traditional fanfare—a breath of fresh air! I stumbled onto the location as I was parking in the commuter lot in Mystic. Very glad I did! They are right across the street from Sift and the parking lot. We had the wrinkled potatoes with a beautiful creamy dipping sauce, smoked carrots with yogurt herb spread, and pomegranate (this one is a creative play on flavor!). We tried the Grilled Spanish Octopus and the main course was the Half Chicken that was delicately crispy on the outside with a beautiful taste of cumin and other beautifully blended spices on the inside, so juicy too! I had to thank the chefs Tabby and Julian for the awesome meal! The LaBelle cocktail was refreshing! And the Lebanese Cake and the Yogurt sorbet, you cannot just get one dessert! We will be coming back soon!

Wow wow wow! I'm amazed what they've done with one of my favorite breakfast establishments. The food is unique and delicious. Staff very friendly. I absolutely loved the place. You owe it to yourself to try this Mediterranean take on American, classy dining

So happy we tried something new to us in Mystic! Arrived in time for Happy Hour and were glad to try their Baby Groni. Tayla was our server but she became a sweet friend in minutes with her pleasant guidance and knowledge of the menu. Thursday wine discount outstanding as well. Casual non rushed ambiance. Stellar olives, cerviche & oysters. But the whole deboned bronzino was no less impressive. Too full for dessert but there will be many return visits to sample those too. Did I already say Tayla is a gem herself?

We heard that a new Mediterranean place had opened up in Mystic, CT. Surely, we had to give it try. Boy, oh boy! What an amazing place. Too bad I didn't have any more room to eat another bite. All the appetizers we tried were delicious. The wine selection while (very) small was a perfect pairing with the food coming from the kitchen. The place is tiny (about 7 tables in the dining room, 5 bar seats, & 4 rail seats over looking the street. I'm glad we got to try this place while it had just opened up. I'm sure, as spring & summer come around, and once word gets out, this place will have a long wait or will be impossible to get into.

My friend from Mystic joined me for dinner after another local had recommended Barbary Coast to me. Amazing! Our server Tayla helped us through the menu and was friendly and attentive. We ordered the ceviche, grilled octopus and Saganaki. Soo good! I am looking forward to my next visit to Mystic and I will defiantly be back. Craig D.

We had a fantastic evening at the Barbary Coast. Awesome presentation of the Levantine cuisine, the food was very delicious! Also we enjoyed the kind and attentive service.

I really enjoyed the service and the ambience of this place. The waitress was super helpful and was very patient with me explaining the menu. I kind of just walked in on a whim, so I don't know if I was fully into the Mediterranean food style at the moment but something didn't knock it completely out of the park. However, the food was not bad and the happy hour specials are decently priced. I think the most interesting thing I liked was the WARM olives. I didn't know what I was expecting. I usually eat cold olives from the refrigerator. But they were quite delicious. I felt like the kafta meatballs and cheese dish was very salty ( remember I also had olives). The overall experience was that I kind of felt that everything was too salty but I honestly think this might've been a reflection of what I ordered and not the entire menu. I think I would probably go back for the happy hour and try some other stuff in the near future. The place is worth a visit for experience and price.

Fantastic- but no serious- it was! Happy hour runs until 6 on a Friday night- so we started with cocktails and apps. Wrinkled potatoes- dusted with salt and a dipping sauce- savory and spicy- yes! Meatballs- great-Salad with super fresh greens and a smear of feta- for the win- but nothing compared to the roasted chicken- 5 spices of perfection. Roasted cauliflower could have used 10 more in minutes in over but still good (coated in honey?) THE BEST CHICKEN ever- our service was 5 star to set the stage. Prices are Mystic,yet comfortable.

Great flavors and service. Chicken and moussaka were full of flavor. Everything was exceptional.

This is such a great addition to Mystic! The food is fabulous, and the service is great. We came with another couple, and we all agreed the whole fish, half chicken, and steak with eggplant were top notch. The wine list is special and interesting, and we enjoyed all the wines we tried, as well as the sangria. If you used to frequent this place when it was a breakfast diner, you won't believe the transformation to the interior - it's beautiful, and you feel like you've stepped into another location miles away from the bustle of town.
