**For parties of 15 or more, kindly call our Events ManagerRobert Miguel at (415) 307-5609 or email robertm@barbayanitaverna.com.** Hospitality in ancient Greece is a timeless tradition deeply woven into the fabric of its culture. In the Mediterranean, a region historically known as a melting pot of diverse cultures and cuisines, this spirit of hospitality was not only a virtue but a sacred duty. From the early times of city-states to the present day, the people of Greece have welcomed weary travelers as if they were guests from the gods themselves. This tradition is a testament to the enduring values of generosity, kindness, and warmth that have characterized Greek society for millennia. Whether it’s a simple offering of food and shelter or the sharing of stories and experiences, the essence of Greek hospitality remains as vibrant and essential today as it was in the days of Homer’s epic tales.

    We celebrated my mom's 93rd birthday here and it couldn't have been more special. The entire restaurant staff were courteous, extremely helpful making our time there perfect. The appetizer selection was very good, the pita sampler, calamari and lamb meatballs were excellent. The Lamb chops were perfectly cooked, tender and delicious. The sea bass was very well seasoned and cooked perfectly. The chicken skewers, excellent as were the scallops. We ate outdoors on the patio and were very comfortable, there are an abundance of heat lamps. We would highly recommend.

    We made a reservation but the place was pretty empty. The first round of food took a while to get there but once it came, everything was delicious. It’s a nice spot, too, with a good vibe for families but also could be a nice date spot. We went with another family of four, so eight total, and everything came in (with tip) under $500. I’ll come here again!
