Restaurants near Balboa Municipal Golf Course

Even though I live in the valley, I hadn't yet visited Bacari, and I'm so glad I finally did. The dinner I had with my friend was nothing short of exceptional. The restaurant is stunning, and I love how they preserved the charm of the previous establishment, which holds fond memories for me. The ambiance is warm and inviting, with a delightful European flair that instantly transports you. While we chose to sit in the dining room away from the live music, it was lovely to hear its soft hum in the background, making me feel as though I was in Paris or Barcelona. The food was simply divine—every dish impressed me with its flavors and presentation. The service was impeccable, striking the perfect balance between attentiveness and giving us the space to enjoy our conversation. The staff had a remarkable ability to read the room, knowing when to offer attention and when to let the evening flow naturally. The whole experience was a seamless dance of delicious food and wonderful energy. The wine list was diverse and intriguing, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to the meal. From the gracious hostesses to the cheerful valet attendants, every member of the team was courteous, friendly, and welcoming. Their hospitality stood out, making the experience feel special even without a Michelin star. The fact that they all took the time to say goodbye with a smile was the perfect finishing touch. Bravo, Bacari! I’ll definitely be back soon.

As always a wonderful lunch with the best staff and best chefs serving the best ingredients. Went with the classic jamon beurre sandwich because frankly its the perfect lunch accompanied by the insanely good french fries. But really its all about the butter in the sandwich, hence the name!

We love this place, the ambience is great, the outdoor area is so nice. The food is usually good, but the meat is subpar. 

Great service. Great staff. Great food. Great drinks. Great ambiance. Always a great experience, will be back again.

Great pianist. Great service and food. It made it a sensational night.
