- JMJason McDuffee1 day ago5.0It was all phenomenal from start to finish. Very cool open kitchen setup. Quick attentive friendly service. Creative refreshing artisan cocktail menu. The best however was the food. It was all great from tasty clams, great zesty Caesar salad, perfectly cooked shrimp, rich hearty short rib and perfectly cooked short rib. Ohhh. Almost forgot the fantastic home made chips. So good and so happy to hear there are other locations nearer to our home. Top notch and marks
- IGIndia Gray2 days ago5.0I have to say that this was THE BEST MEAL I have had in a bit. The potato chips amazing, Caesar salad was phenomenal and the shrimp were perfect, short rib was best I’ve ever had. I wasn’t drinking but first Mocktail I’ve ordered was great too. Staff and atmosphere, wonderful. Can’t say enough good things!! Can’t wait to try the Boston location!
- DSDenise SaundersJan 4, 20265.0We had an excellent time at Barcino last night. First time trying the grilled pizza and it was amazing. The crust was so light and thin, perfect for an appetizer. Bartenders were fantastic and the atmosphere was so great. We met some really cool people sitting at the bar. Such a great experience
- EHEmily HickeyJan 2, 20261.0Extremely disappointed with the service. We reserved way in advance a table for 2 + baby. We even described our reservation in the notes. They called 2 minutes before we got there and we were walking in. The host claimed that because we didn’t answer the call 2 minutes before we got there she couldn’t help us and we’d have to wait at least 45 minutes for a table. They reserved us at the bar when we wrote in the notes we had a baby and couldn’t have us at the bar. We showed up early for our reservation and we were blamed for their mistake. Really poor service. Not a good way to treat customers.
- NTNina TriplettDec 31, 20255.0The most delicious food I’ve had in a very long time. I can’t remember the last time I had a meal where I couldn’t stop thinking about it. We came for lunch on new years eve and had the antipasto, cacio e pepe, capanelli, and finished with the pistachio cake and the lemon cake. Everything was a 10/10. Super fresh and light. Staff was friendly and accommodating. Owner/manager came to check on our table twice and refilled out drinks. Highly recommend!!
