My husband and I have gone here for brunch for years and I always get one of their Benedict’s and my husband always loves their buttermilk pancakes. The pancakes today were so terrible. Spongy without the usual crispness. The flavor wasn’t there. We saw the table next to us also was disappointed. They sent their pancakes back. I hope today was a fluke and Barbarella can continue to be a favorite brunch spot. The Benedict was still good.

Unexpected surprise! We are so glad we selected this spot. We were traveling with our dog so this was great - we could eat outside and have the dog with us. They even have a dog menu!! Our mutt was on cloud 9! Human food was pretty good too. Our teen loved the pizza, I enjoyed the Greek salad and hubby enjoyed the salmon. Portions are large and very tasty. Location is fab and the place was busy and bustling on a Saturday night. Service was great. Cocktails are delicious too, highly recommend. We plan to be back.

The hostess Kirsten was darling! Very helpful and server was equally charming. Wines by the glass for a good value. We miss the old hardy wheat sourdough bread.

We had a great lunch at Barbella. Our group was quite large but we were seated promptly and service was excellent. There was a lot of variety on the menu to meet the different dietary needs and preferences and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal.
