Dans l’ensemble, les avis sur BarBara soulignent une ambiance chaleureuse et une terrasse agréable, propice à un cadre cosy et convivial. La carte privilégie des plats italiens à partager comme la focaccia, les arancinis et les pâtes, avec des mentions récurrentes de la cacio e pepe et du burrata comme des incontournables. Le vin et les cocktails sont appréciés par beaucoup et les plats sont souvent décrits comme frais et bien exécutés. Le service est perçu comme chaleureux et efficace par certains, mais des reproches surviennent sur la lenteur, des oublis ou des erreurs de paiement lorsque l’affluence est forte. La terrasse et le niveau sonore peuvent devenir bruyants et peu propices à la conversation, surtout sans réservation et à certaines heures. Les portions peuvent sembler petites pour le prix selon certains avis, mais d’autres estiment le rapport qualité prix raisonnable grâce à la qualité des ingrédients et à la diversité de l’offre. Dans l’ensemble BarBara est vu comme un lieu dynamique et mémorable pour sortir entre amis ou en couple, où l’ambiance, la nourriture et le choix de vins conviennent à de nombreuses occasions. En résumé, BarBara reste un spot dynamique et agréable, recherché pour son ambiance et ses plats savoureux, tout en étant conscient des éventuels aléas de service et d’attente lors des périodes très chargées.
First time there, manager Chloe & Catherine were supper nice & welcoming ..food was so fresh & drinks on point. I'm italien & it's rare I go out to italien resto but some of the dishes we took reminded me of nonnas recipes. Keep up the great work . Will be visiting soon again

Overall: great food & wine, looooong wait. We went around 7:30 on a busy Friday night; we were told it was a 45 min wait for a table, & were seated in the waiting area. I think they thought we had left because we ended up waiting 1.5h, & several tables seated before us. When we were finally sat, service was better but took a while to be seen. Its a shame we had this experience because the wine & food were both really great. If you catch them outside of the rush, i definitely think its worth a try.
This is a great place to eat Italian food & try amazing drinks. I recommend you to make a reservation as it is usually pretty busy & the waiting time can get up to 2 hours on the weekend. For food we tried the pappardelle, the pork escalope, the spritz, & the ciao ciao fizz with gin. Unfortunately it started to rain & we were sitting outside, so we couldn't stay for dessert. We'll be back for sure.
Really loved it! Our waitress was super nice & helpful with the menu she explained everything very well & made our night very enjoyable! The wait wasn't too long eithe

Such a great place for a date. Nice atmosphere & drinks. Really lovely terrasse in the summer. We love the food. You must get the ricotta foccacia - it is so delicious. My partner & I generally get a few plates to share - a vegetable, a pasta dish, an entree, & the foccacia. Everything is always really tasty & the service is quite good.
Incredible staff. I was shocked at how pleasantly friendly & helpful everyone was . I was contemplating leaving because my kid was cold on the terrasse & fussy (understandably) but they quickly accommodated us indoors with a book for him & coloring pencils. The waiter placed his order first & he had food within minutes . It was just impressive how the staff works together, perfect harmony. In this day & age when you're kind of used to bad service, eating there tonight was really enjoyable. The food was wonderful, slightly expensive. The wine was fantastic. All in all a great experience. I will definitely go back.

The place is trendy & beautiful that's why I wanted to give it a try, I ordered calamari it wasn't fresh, too oily & cold. It was the worst experience I had. Margarita had to much ice with no special taste.
This place... amazing! The selection of wines was great, not much by the glass but very cool & funky bottles available. It was super busy when we got there but we managed to get a glass of wine while we waited & the time flew by. Once seated our server was amazing, super friendly, open to let us try out French & with great suggestions. Everything was delicious but the service is what made this experience a 10/10. The cacio & pepe was really good but the white bolognese was the star of the night for us! Delicious olives & focaccia as well! Super cute, vibey place, i would go weekly if I lived in Montreal.
food was excellent, seated quickly. Waited awhile to be seen but it was very busy so it was understandable. Hostess was rude, she had asked us to leave our table after having paid but was very rude & condescending. There are better ways to talk to people.
Excellent experience. I waited months to try & they did not disappoint. The waitress was amazing, super attentive & so nice. Food was delicious. Pasta was fresh & foccaccia was out of this world. Drinks are original & prices are overall reasonable. Love it & will be back!
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!
Great selection of wines (they even had orange wine!). The ambiance was nice & it was a nice place to get drinks at night. Oysters were pretty good & so was the focaccia.
Very disappointing experience. Waited an hour to be seated. Because there are no reservations, the atmosphere is super chaotic & you end up cramped up on a tiny table. The menu is really unclear, very hard to even tell which meals are vegetarian or not, & there's literally only 5 dinner options, 3 of which are not vegetarian. The food is okay, but it's incredibly overpriced. The drinks are actually foul. Our waiter was very nice & clearly trying their best but you can feel their stress seeing how chaotic the place is. Would not go back, very overhyped
Les sandwichs sont très bons, le service impeccable & souriant, le tiramisu à la pistache est à tomber par terre. Seul petit bémol, un petit effort dans les toilettes. Certes on ne passe pas son temps dans les toilettes. Cependant des toilettes bien maintenues font partie d'une expérience réussie.
