Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Barbounia promises "great food" and a "festive atmosphere" with Mediterranean flair. Known for its "amazing service" and "delicious food," it's a favorite for brunch and dinner alike. While the vibrant ambiance can be "loud," the lively setting and iconic dishes like lamb kofta and mezze platter make it a go-to spot.

    Beautiful place, great ambiance, excellent service. We went for brunch. My friend loved his Israeli french toast. We both loved the fruit special appetizer. I was not crazy about my eggs benedict with bacon on the Jerusalem bagel. I thought the eggs were a bit overcooked, the bacon kind of hard to cut, and the bagel impossible to cut without a steakknife. But I would go back and try a more Meditteranean dish. The place is lovely and exceptional service.

    I have been here 6 times prior with my coworker for company dinners, Everytime it was a wonderful time. This has been my 1st time I went alone and took my family. We were seated at a horrible area. The waiters kept bumping into my chair and my daughter's as well. Our waiter, his name was Timur, he was best put simply awful. He was very attentive to the other table he was assigned to but kept missing ours. I will say the bus boys and other assistants to him is what saved us from walking out. I will definitely inform my boss about my experience, and I will not be recommending this restaurant to anyone. For what we paid for the waiters and our table made our dinner night a waste of time.

    Food was good, service was lacking though - our reservation was at 430 but the kitchen didn’t open until 5 and we had no idea who our server was, a lot of different people kept coming over to the table. We ordered beer and didn’t get it until the end of the meal. We wanted to ask someone if we could eat cupcakes but couldn’t flag anyone done - though they did charge us a cake fee.

    Don’t sit at table 1. It’s horrible to get in and out of. It ruined the experience.
