    We have been to Bari for brunch several times in the past and always had a delightful time- amazing and beautiful food with excellent service. Our first dinner experience was a disappointment, to say the least. Our server was inattentive, casual and occasionally said odd things that felt rude. For example, he asked me what language I was speaking to him when I spoke to him in English. He also would point to and repeat everything on the menu that I said, though this was not the case with my husband. He also informed us of the specials in a jumbled and confused way - just listed a bunch of meats, not clear what was a main or an appetizer or how it was cooked. He did not seem to notice our table needs in general and I am sad to say really impacted the enjoyment of the evening. My husband enjoyed the vongole pasta and it was perfect. My chicken marsala had bone fragments in it that made me cautious as I ate til I finally quit when I realized it wasn't just an unfortunate trim of the chicken and most bites would be uncomfortable. Bummer, Bari.

    We always enjoy this restaurant. We brought our granddaughter who also loved it . My husband and I shared the octopus appetizer which was one of the best of this we have ever had. Then we had the pasta with clam which was outstanding. Our granddaughter had a Caesar salad and the truffle pasta made table side which she loved. She had the pistachio tiramisu which she loved as well. Service was excellent.

    Service was impeccable. Beautiful restaurant. Excellent glass of Sauvignon only $14. Crabcake appetizer very unique and tasty. Branzino very good and pistachio tiramisu beautifully presented. Food maybe a little bland but still a great experience

    We love the food, the staff and the place! And we love Pedro and Tommy. Bari is always fun and upbeat. We sometimes sit in the area which is fun. But the dining room is beautiful, and great for a group.
