One of the best all around restaurant experiences I have ever had. It’s not cheap, but it’s also not crazy expensive. Will try to go back whenever I am visiting LA

We were celebrating the marriage of our son and now daughter-in-law with a large group. Casey was our server/also manager who couldn't have been more attentive and gave us great service! The vegetable plates were winners including the delicata squash, brussel sprouts, mujadara and rainbow beets. My favorite dish was the scallops. The chicken sliders and shwarma (made vegan for the bride) were OK. The biggest disappointment was the sea bass which was a bit dry. However, it was overridden by the fabulous overall experience. At the end of our meal the server brought complimentary glasses of champagne for the six of us, and complimentary bread pudding and date cake which were both delicious! I highly recommend Bacari or a great time!

A fun & playful interior design that feels like an adult treehouse makes this a must see restaurant in LA. Food was quality but not jaw-dropping. Service was a little slow but the ambiance had us mesmerized and distracted. Much of the restaurant is under a partially covered roof, so temperature can vary. I’d suggest wearing layers.
