Barra

Everything was delicious, with a good variety of tastes, staff was super friendly, and the vibe is chill yet intimate. The playlist was really good. We loved our experience and will definitely come back again.

We had been looking forward to dining here for a special birthday celebration, but unfortunately, our experience left us feeling unwelcome and upset. Due to a freak storm that caused a complete metro shutdown, we arrived 45 minutes late to our booking. We completely understand that lateness can affect a restaurant’s schedule, and we did everything we could to communicate — we called and emailed twice, and were reassured on the phone not to worry. The email we received also stated we had a 2.5-hour dining window, which gave us hope that we’d still be able to enjoy the evening. However, when we arrived at 7:17pm, our server told us we only had the table until 8:45pm at best, and even that wasn't guaranteed. The way this was communicated made us feel like a problem rather than valued guests, despite our efforts to keep the team informed. Trying to make the most of our time, we ordered quickly based on the server’s suggestions and ended up finishing everything within 43 minutes — we were completely done by 8pm. It left us wondering whether we really had to rush like that, especially since our original booking should have allowed us until 9pm. To add to the discomfort, when I pointed out that my wine glass had a visible crack in it, the server simply poured the wine away and replaced the glass (not the liquid he had poured down the drain) — no apology. It was a small but telling moment that summed up how we were treated: as if we didn’t matter. Most upsetting of all was the tone and attitude of our server throughout. It felt cold and condescending, and instead of enjoying my birthday meal, I felt anxious and close to tears. We had hoped for a celebratory evening but left feeling like we were barely tolerated. We understand that restaurants are under pressure and have timing constraints, but a little kindness and understanding go a long way. Sadly, that was missing from our visit.

Another wonderful experience at Barra—returning after 3 years and still loving it just as much! We booked a few weeks in advance, and it was well worth the wait. The restaurant has a clean, minimal aesthetic with a light wooden interior that feels calm and welcoming. We went with the set sharing menu and enjoyed every single dish. Standouts for us were the green asparagus, duck, and the chocolate mousse with milk ice cream—all beautifully done. The wine selection was top notch, and we also appreciated the thoughtful low and no-alcohol options. Service was excellent throughout the evening. Overall, a fantastic night—Barra continues to impress! 🍷✨🍽️

More than perfect! our dinner here was superb, we had the set menu which we asked to be turned vegetarian, each one of the many dishes was just magnificent, starting from the highest grade focaccia and olive oil, continuing to fantastic little appetizers like the garlic soup, freshest vegetables, a very enjoyable fish main course and ending in a lovely desert. Very highly recommended, ah, the place and its ambience is also wonderful as well.

Lively minimalist restaurant serving tasting menu and a la carte. 📝Reservation required 😋I went with the tasting menu. My favorites were the oyster, salad, and pork loin. The meat was tender and juicy and paired perfectly with the grilled peaches 🍑 🍨The dessert is a highlight that you should not miss. It was so delicious that I ordered another dessert from the a la carte menu (worth it 💯 would recommend). The flavors were elegant and innovative (chamomile panna cotta, goat milk ice cream with strawberry & brown butter cake).

Oh fresh flowers everywhere make all the difference! The food is delicious the ingredients are driving the taste and flavor - mushrooms have very mushroomy taste, boar has the same, pasta with pork purée- wow, and the wine is exceptional. Natural and organic wines and they had a very special red !! Just wow. The service is beyond great! The team makes all the difference

Everything on the sharing menu was absolutely delicious. Some dishes were relatively simple but perfectly executed, others a bit more complex but equally tasty. Service and atmosphere were great as well. Favorites were the duck, chocolate dessert and the bread (yes, the bread). It's obviously pricey but I think for the quality it is worth it for a special occasion. What I found a bit too expensive was the wine. One glass of 125ml white came with a tag of 14€ which quickly pushes the bill above 200€ for two (there is one cheaper option at I think 7€ or 8€ to be fair but we took one of the recommendations).

We visited for the first time and left happy. The quality of the dishes is excellent, the service very friendly and attentive, and the interior simple yet stylish. The great selection of non-alcoholic wines was also a real highlight, the recommendation too! However, not every course in the menu fully met the high standards (e.g. the croquette?) or was entirely harmonious in flavor. Also the music was a tad too loud. If I‘d be more specific in my rating, I would give a solid and honest 4.5 ⭐️ definitely worth a visit!

I can't fault the restaurant for either it's non-interventionist aims or the service, although as I was sat right at the bar attracting attention was no trouble. I also now consider myself educated with regards to orange wines & coppa, having researched both after seeing them on the menu. Coppa as a starter was though a bit of a let down just presented on its own. A pickle or two would have added to the dish. Likewise the monkfish main course was too nouvelle for my taste. Four portions of the same dish could easily have been demolished. Still, the atmosphere wasn't bad & as it's an open kitchen you can see what the chefs are up to. Also the toilet is ideally placed for good usage.

Wow, what a spot. Came here with a couple of friends for a Sunday night meal and boy oh boy were we pleased. All the dishes were delicious. We got a chestnut soup (amazing), pumpkin and squash (incredible), a ravioli (also delicious). Interestingly, the focaccia was one of the best orders--by far the best focaccia I have ever had. It is a must!!! Service was very friendly and the food was brought in a timely manner but we didn't feel rushed at all. Vibe was perfect for a quiet dinner with friends or with a significant other. Book in advance because it fills up fast. HIGHLY recommend!!!!!

Don't understand the negative reviews. I thoroughly enjoyed everything here--wine, food, atmosphere and service. All were top notch.

Pretty bland dishes designed probably to read well or photograph well on Instagram but lacking severely in execution (and conception). Decent selection of your standard trendy natural wines but really nothing stood out as memorable or powerful. Mediocre sort of modern hipster restaurant experience.

In my opinion a super nice designed place, but the food is average. We had a five course meal and I would say there were 2 delicious meals and the others were just okay. But - the dessert is really the best I've eaten there and really recommendable. We had a mousse au chocolat with cardamon and olive. 3 stars for the water flatrate & the dessert! The service is not professional at all. I think a customer is a king, because he is paying for it and have to be treated like that. If you complain about something, you should still try to make the customer feel comfortable. They failed. The fish was way too salty & their reaction to that, was not so convenient.
