   The place is clean and easy to get to, parking downtown can be a problem at any time. The food was good and the portions were plentiful. It was very noisy, but I guess that's a downside of being so busy, which says they have a good customer base. The only let down was the desserts, and this is probably because my wife is an excellent tiramisu maker and theirs was not so good. Overall, good value and good main courses.

   This was the first time I had been to Barbarella. The ambiance is very cool inside with a great vibe. We were taken upstairs to our table and seated early as out table was ready. We wanted to have drinks first prior to ordering food however we sat there for a good 15-20 minutes after ordering our drinks waiting to have the server come back and say they were out of some simple syrups. So we needed to pick something else. We reordered different drinks and appetizers. Our appetizers arrived before our drinks and I looked at my watch and realized we had been sitting there for 30 minutes before receiving our drinks. Not really great service in my opinion! It was our Anniversary and was disappointed we had come early to not have our drinks come as that was the whole point of coming early! Food came quickly which was great and tasted fantastic. I would go back however I would definitely request being on the main floor as the servers have to come up a very long flight of stairs in order to bring food and drinks and I feel that slowed down our service.

   Service was beyond slow. We had reservations and multiple tables were sat down before us. We ordered espresso martinis, they arrived and were the wrong mix. The server did replace them, but the wait was excessive all around. Ambiece was great, our server was very gracious about replacing the cocktails and great overall, but disappointed for the delays with the price tag.

   I had heard so much about Barbarella, and was looking forward to dining there with my family. The building and decor was beautiful, and I had high expectations for the rest of the evening. The greeter, was not friendly and do not make eye contact - I did not feel welcome; she really did not greet us. There was some confusion with our order and the meals did not come out all together. The chicken on the cauliflower salad was fatty and the chicken Parmesan sandwich was dry. When I asked the waiter for some extra sauce he never mentioned that there would be an extra charge. I have had better dining experiences.

   A very vibey place. A great happy hour for drinks and pizza. A bit noisy for me but that's ok. I just prefer a more chill noise level.

    A fantastic happy hour, 1/2 alcohol and 1/2 pizzas, which is a great deal. Also, try the olives! The atmosphere of this place is such a vibe. The service can’t be beat, Eduardo took exceptional care of us.
