Delicious food for the three of us. Great service thanks to Mia, who looked after us a treat. She was very friendly and helpful, a real asset to the restaurant. We sat outside but when rain came we were quickly moved inside to a table left spare for such an issue. We had a fantastic afternoon and night celebrating our daughter's birthday. We will come again. Thanks Mia and Bartiga's.

Fantastic food! We got the $85pp Set Menu and everything was delicious - nice pacing in terms of the pauses between dishes. The mojito and Mocktail with pineapple juice and Yakult foam were both great palate cleansers. We got there unexpectedly early and they accommodated us without any issue - we got started early and finished early. 100% recommend!
