"This Italian spot in River Oaks will be open on Christmas Day with a few options for diners. You can choose from the regular Bari menu or their specialty menu, which includes lobster ravioli, braised veal shank, and pecan pie." - gianni greene
"You don’t need this. Yeah, it’s fun when Bari’s big parmesan wheel gets carted over. And, wow, yes, the hot pasta melts the cheese. But the bottom line is that this pasta doesn’t taste that good. It exists primarily as social media fodder and not as a great dish worth the money or time. Especially after waiting as the server somewhat unskillfully rotates pasta around a giant cheese wheel. Nothing about this being tableside makes it better. We say pass." - chelsea thomas
