If I could give 6/5 !!! We had such a lovely evening at Barcola. It was a Saturday, so the menu was four courses. A deceptively simple meal that was perfectly prepared & perfectly delicious. The service provided by Danielle was exactly on pace -- not too fast & not too slow -- & very gracious. You could not find a more pleasant atmosphere in which to dine: the room is modest in size so the atmosphere is intimate. & the music was the perfect cap to everything. We live not too far away & so we will make this a regular event but I would definitely make a bit of a trip to have an evening here. Buon Appetito !!!

The food was delicious & the service was great. Fresh & high quality ingredients - the three courses were perfection. We will
Definitely be back! My only regret is not taking any photos. To include in my review. Very cool atmosphere & we loved all the music that was playing as well.

I brought my sister here for her birthday & we were both very happy with the experience. All of the courses were delicious. The portions seem small at first but we were both full by the end of the night. I especially loved the panna cotta which I had never tried before. The atmosphere was my favourite part; it is a very intimate setting with beautiful music & ambience. If I could afford it, I would eat here every week. I will certainly be back. Thank you, Barcola, for a great night!

Hands down one of the best restaurant experiences I've had in all aspects & one that I will never forget! It felt more like visiting the home of a friend, I felt that comfortable. & the food was incredible. It felt like a lot of love was put into each course

Amazing little restaurant, very happy to have discovered this place! They have a set tasting menu so you have to be ready to eat whatever is put in front of you, & for some picky like me it’s far out of my comfort zone but I absolutely loved every dish! The entree was a tomato, fig & arugula salad with focaccia & for someone who doesn’t eat tomatoes, it was really good, I did share some of my tomatoes with my partner ;), the second course was this delicious pasta in a type of sauce that I can’t remember but I could have licked the plate clean, & for the main meal chose the pork which was absolutely cooked to perfection! Will definitely be coming back to try again!!
