We absolutely loved our dinner at Barista and Chef. We were reuniting with friends we had travelled with in Tuscany and we wanted to find a charming Mediterranean style restaurant. The service was excellent- everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Delicious food - just as good as our meals in Tuscany. We were delighted with the background music too - not too loud as we have experienced at other hip restaurants. Thank you to the Barista and Chef team!!🤗

Barista and Chef is a small restaurant that does a great job looking after their customers. They accommodate food allergies and provide alternative choices. The servers are top notch and very pleasant. The food was very tasty and plentiful which is unusual these days. The noise level was refreshingly quiet even with the restaurant full of diners. Overall, Barista and Chef is a great place to be for regular and special occasion dining.

A real family run restaurant. Feels like you are a guest in their home. The menu is pretty classic, but they always have multiple specials if you are looking to change things up.

Always a treat to dine here. Had the chicken breast dish that was incredibly tasty. Always great service and an interesting menu. And maybe one of the last places that serves free warmed bread and dip before the rest of the food arrives. Feels like a “neighborhood place “that attracts people from all over.
