If you are looking for exceptional food, that is beyond the everyday pasta or pizza, then you need to go to Barbarella Bar! We have gone here many times and have loved every visit! The staff is lovely and seat you very quickly as well if they have the patio open are happy to seat you out there (would suggest the reservation though it really helps). We got the lamb sausage pizza with the endive salad, and to finish we got the fusilli pasta. It was spectacular, truly an amazing hand stretched pizza and the sauces from all of them were decadent. It was a bit on the fancy side which I love but also some of the plates are perfect for just a drop in and catch up with your best friend! Definitely would suggest for all occasions it is the perfect cozy and yummy place to catch up!

My two coworkers and I stopped by for an evening out and had a fantastic experience. The service was friendly, attentive, and made us feel truly welcomed. The food was absolutely delicious, and everything arrived perfectly prepared. The team went above and beyond to make our visit enjoyable, and we left very impressed. We’ll definitely be back

Had the pleasure of enjoying dinner here while on a work trip. I enjoyed sitting at the chef’s bar and observing the kitchen. The food was delicious. My server had excellent recommendations and knew the food very well. The kitchen was kept immaculate through the whole service. Everyone was calm and just seemed to be enjoying their jobs. I tried the scallop crudo, tomato and hazelnut dip, and the pistachio and ricotta ravioli. Everything was exceptional.

I have been wanting to come here and can I just say. Everything was amazing, the atmosphere was warm and it was a bit cold outside but they have heaters outside as well so I wasnt freezing and they have umbrellas outside for when its too hot so you have shade. My friends and I ate their salami pizza and honestly it is a bit spicy but you can ask for honey ($1 extra charge) to help with the spice hut if you like a little heat its really nice and I would recommend their drinks since they are also really good.

An absolutely stunning space with delicious food! Happy hour is 50% off pizza and cocktails so a pitcher of Aperol Spritz was $22.50 - say less! We enjoyed the halloumi, calamari, the date and Gorgonzola pizza (a little too rich for my personal taste) and the Calabrese salami pizza. Overall, the vibe was amazing and the service was perfect. I love when servers check in before happy hour ends to see if you want to put in anything else. Cannot wait to go back!

Went here for a team lunch, was a bigger group so we made reservations and they put us in one of their rooms. The ricotta crostini, salmon crudo, and chicken piccata were really good. Our group also tried the halloumi, polenta fries (from late night menu), and the calamari and they were really tasty too. Will be back!

Over the last few years I have been here a couple of times - the latest was this past weekend. The atmosphere and vibes are immaculate and I really appreciate that tables are spaced out well so there is a sense of privacy. The service has always been excellent as well. The only recommendation I have is for the food - I felt like most of the dishes have been underwhelming, often missing a depth of flavour that Italian food should have. A revamp of the menu may be required. Will definitely return for the vibes and service.
