About

Barroco fuses rustic Mediterranean foundations with a sophisticated approach to comfort food within a historic, stone-walled setting. The menu centers on elevated Spanish and French influences, highlighting high-quality proteins prepared with deliberate technique and bold seasoning. Patrons encounter a focused selection of small plates designed for sharing, alongside hearty main courses that emphasize depth of flavor through traditional roasting and braising methods. The atmosphere remains consistently intimate, characterized by dim lighting and exposed structural elements that reflect the heritage of the building. Each dish relies on the integrity of seasonal ingredients to define its profile, ensuring that the culinary execution remains both precise and intentional. This establishment offers a cohesive experience that prioritizes the intersection of heritage-inspired recipes and modern preparation styles for a discerning crowd.

Guests frequently highlight the quality of the cuisine, with dishes like the braised beef, beef Wellington, and various seafood options earning high accolades for their flavor and preparation.

Amazing night we had in Barroco! The place is really cozy & well decorated. The food was incredible. We order the octopus, the brioche & the steak with truffle butter... everything tasted really good. Plus, the attention & cordiality from our waiter Luca was incredible. It was my wife's birthday & highly recommend this place for a special occasion.

The food was beautiful, the staff was beautiful & the place is beautiful. The drinks are very nicely made, & the food is perfectly balanced. The brioche was delicate & the cheese & butter that it came with were a wonderful paring. The salad with anchovies & bacon was delicious. The hen had a wonderful creamy sauce & soft mushrooms. The pasta with ricotta was truly delight. We had a dessert that we ate so quickly I forgot to take a picture but it had a very nice apple confit on top. Lastly the staff was not only gorgeous but they were funny, knowledgeable & attentive. I'd love to come back & get through the entire menu.

Cuisine & service impeccable. Nous avons eu un réel coup de coeur pour l'établissement. La décoration nous fait rentrer dans un univers & dans une ambiance hors du temps. La qualité du service à été impeccable. Un grand merci au chef & barman également pour ce menu dégustation & ses cocktails. Nous reviendrons c'est sure & nous recommendons également les yeux fermés le Barroco.

I went there for the first time & was really impressed by the quality of the food & taste. But... We ordered the tasting menu along with the wine pairings. It would have been perfect but the plates came too fast & we ended up having three glasses of wine each on the table by the time we got the fourth plate. If I may offer a suggestion: either allow more time to taste each wine pairing, or serve half sized portions of wine. Together, we wasted about $100 worth of very good wine... Will go back again for sure but will opt for the menu à la carte.
