BarBara agit comme un pôle de quartier spécialisé axé sur des préparations italiennes authentiques qui mettent l'accent sur des produits saisonniers de haute qualité et un savoir-faire artisanal. La cuisine propose une sélection évolutive de pâtes fraîches faites à la main et de préparations au feu de bois qui reflètent les techniques traditionnelles tout en utilisant des ingrédients locaux. Des vins naturels accompagnent le menu pour offrir un profil gustatif cohérent à chaque service. L'espace fonctionne à la fois comme un restaurant décontracté et une boutique spécialisée, proposant des produits d'épicerie fine et des sauces maison à emporter. Les intérieurs minimalistes créent un environnement fonctionnel où l'attention reste portée sur l'intégrité des produits bruts et la précision de la cuisson. Les clients découvrent une approche directe et sans prétention des traditions culinaires méditerranéennes privilégiant les goûts francs.
BarBara est largement reconnu pour son atmosphère accueillante, son décor élégant et sa focaccia exceptionnelle, souvent considérée comme l'élément phare du menu. Les clients apprécient régulièrement la fraîcheur des pâtes, la vaste sélection de vins et la charmante terrasse, ce qui en fait une adresse de quartier très prisée pour prendre un verre ou se retrouver entre amis. Bien que beaucoup profitent de l'ambiance chaleureuse et du service attentionné, certains soulignent que le restaurant peut être bruyant et bondé. La politique sans réservation entraîne souvent de longues attentes et, malgré la qualité constante de la cuisine, certains clients ont émis des réserves concernant la taille des portions et des irrégularités occasionnelles dans le service pendant les heures de pointe.
My flight was delayed & just picked BarBara from a map, about 20 minutes away. Located on a quaint part of Notre Dame, open space to the street with a nice patio. Young-ish crowd, very friendly. Great service with very friendly server! Food & drink good, reasonably priced. Thank-you BarBara!
Tasty pasta, nice ambiance, good service! Focaccia bread is fresh & nice here , they bake it. The only negative point about Barbara is there is no reservation & it is first come first serve, so you need to give your name when you arrive & on Saturday night waiting time was about 50minutes!

Super trendy resto bar cafe where you can just hang out with friends. They don't pressure you to leave or to order. We stayed here for a few hours & only ordered drinks. They also brought us complimentary pastries. Service was very good & they were all very nice. All of the food also looked delicious. Highly recommend coming for a chill time with friends or even a date. Highly recommend their matcha with pistachio
Service was chaotic & inefficient, our drinks were sitting at the bar for 10 minutes before someone realized & brought them to us. Despite this, many of the staff weren't occupied so it seems mismanaged. Food was overpriced ($16 for one piece of toast). Many better places you can go to in Montreal
I have been to BarBara a few times & the food is always as good, fresh & tasty! The staff is very friendly, the ambiance of the place is cozy & lovely. What I also like is that's it doubles as a café during the day so you can also drop by for a quick coffee or matcha break. A bit of a side note, but their matcha lattes hot or iced are very well prepared & taste very good. I always like to bring my friends here, the price is very reasonable & some side dishes can definitely be shared. I would say some of my favorite items are the arancini, the burrata & the cacio e pepe. They have a good wine & alcohol selection as well. Just a few things to consider is that they do not take reservations so you have to be there early on typical weekend evenings because you might have to wait for a little while. However, you can always order a drink or a side dish while you wait. That being said, I would recommend you to try this place!
BarBara was on my list for a while, & I'm glad to have finally tried it, especially for a date night! The atmosphere is so cozy & romantic, literally a candlelight dinner! The food was great, I especially enjoyed the burrata, cocktail shrimp & gnocchi! I'll have to come back to try more dishes!
Cozy bar with a bit more upscale vibe. Ordered literally everything on the money for 6 people. Was around 40$ per person. You can't go wrong with any of the food. Portions are decent & fulfilling. Service was great & prompt, however there wasn't a lot of people when I went there. Added as one of my new favorite bars to go to.
Mon resto favoris à Montréal - on a essayé le menu soir Must try: burrata, olives frites, campanelle al ragù Barb's esp martini is ok, but the white negroni slaps
When you can get a spot at BarBara you'll definitely have a night to remember. No matter what you order you can't miss: the gnocchi is incredible, the fries are covered in parmesan (never a bad thing for us) & don't even get us started on the focaccia. The wine selection is incredible. To have a spot with such a wide inventory that is constantly changing is incredible. The service is a bit slow but like we said they are always really busy. Great wine bar with fantastic Italian food in the Sud-Ouest
