We started with the Small plates of Avocado and then the Salmon. The Avocado dish was divine...perfectly warm with tantalizing flavors beneath it. The salmon was really good but we weren't fans of the "crisp" that comes with it which is made from the skin...too fishy for our taste. That's a personal preference. I had the burger and my wife the Cacio e Pepe. Both were also excellent.

It was a perfect evening to sit out in the garden. Luke was a great server. The burgers were really awesome! One place it was lacking was in the wine selection. Too many rosés and not enough approachable red wines.

Bardea Garden is the wonderful child of Bardea and Bardea Steak. We loved the ambiance and the cuisine was off the charts. The single carrot was extraordinary. The hamburger was as good as it gets. The Filet was breath-taking. My NY foodie friends were blown-away. The elk meatballs and the gnocchi were extraordinary. This was the dinner of the year, so far!!! (Service was only ordinary as Bardea appeared to be understaffed that evening. Still, everyone was so nice….)

This place is literally the in-between for Bardea and Bardea Steak. Limited, more casual menu. Good food for a nice night out. Calamari has an Asian twist - almost Teriyaki. Shrimp cocktail has nice big shrimp. Burger was good. Pasta was surprisingly just okay.

Excellent food. Great atmosphere. Our favorite restaurant in Wilmington hands down. The service is a bit inconsistent and slow. We far prefer this over the other Bardea's as the music is SO LOUD!!

We typically eat at the bar inside Bardea however we wanted to try out the Garden and see how we liked it. I must say - I think it was our favorite Bardea experience to date. We have been MANY times to bardea and it truly never disappoints but this experience felt even better. I think the laid back cozy yet open environment made the experience what it was. The food was phenomenal of course! The Ahi Tuna was a favorite for sure! We loved the space and can’t wait to come back!
