Michelin Star Service! Server was Alma G , it was a Tuesday Evening The weather was amazing chose to sit outside amongst the beautifully decor lighting and candles. Ordered the Lemon Drop Martini , amazing and the dehydrated garnishment made for a beautiful photo and Alma was kind enough to share how the garnishments are made in house fresh. Ordered the Schwarma Tacos wow! Flavorful and perfect for the table. Also order a pasta which was equally delicious and the margarita pizza. Everything was cooked Al Dente and I have to say the sauce in the tacos was 10/10! Alma was kind enough to share info that Brunch is amazing there and said order the French toast it's perfection ! I'm Looking forward to a Bacari Brunch. If you're looking for a great girls night, date night or just a family night out this is the place to go!

I absolutely love this place. It is a date night favorite. The ambiance is beautiful and cozy. I tried it for the first time last year and mentioned it was a date night with my husband and the hostess was so sweet by leaving a note at our table. That kind gesture set the tone for a wonderful date night. We did beat the dinner rush so service was great. I recommend the pork belly, ricotta & beet gnocchi, and the burrata caprese. They all have so much flavor and were absolutely scrumptious. The drinks are great as well although they are a bit pricey. I would just suggest avoiding the dinner rushes and keep in mind it is street parking and valet only.

This spot is phenomenally curated from decor to theme to wall art to of course the amazing foods. This service staff is wonderful, too from the well coiffed hostess staff to the fun loving server, Ramona who handled our mega table with an upbeat attitude and was a very clear communicator as many items came out at different times and we prefer it this way instead of all at once. It's nice when dishes cascade across the duration of the meal because there is always a surprise on repeat. The egg pizza was worth the wait and when paired with an 8 ounce pour of champagne and a bite or two of anyone else's food it's a perfect combination of good tastes and flavors. We will definitely be back for Happy Hour and their amazing every day wine specials at night!

Bacari is a hidden gem in Studio City. It has a rustic cozy feel to the restaurant. Greg waiting on us was great and he gave amazing recommendations. The portions are a bit on the smaller side so keep that in mind when ordering. Food was delicious especially the fluffy pancakes. Thank you Greg! Although valet has nothing to do with the restaurant they were very sloppy and unorganized. They were trying to charge us three cars for the price of two and had originally told us valet was only $10 then changed it to $12. If Bacari could look into a different vendor that's benefit them.

Very nice restaurant. The ambience is just perfect. We sat outdoors. It was pleasant. The service was good but sort of slow considering they were not so busy. I didn't know that they do NOT serve brunch on the week days, so you have to order from the dinner menu. It was a shame because I was really looking forward to shakshouka. We ordered the rainbow beets & burrata caprese . Both appetizers were delicious. For sharing, we got the shawarma tacos & the sea bass. Very tasty with lots of flavors. The only other thing I would change is the kids sliders. It was drenched in ketchup. I didn't even realize it came with ketchup because I didn't see or notice it on the menu, or I just assumed that adding ketchup was definitely a choice (since children are picky eaters). By the time I scraped some ketchup off I used all the napkins on our table. lol. Anyways, it was ALOT of ketchup. I will definitely be back. It is a beautiful place and I'm glad that the food was great. I just wish they served brunch on weekdays as well. I can't understand why they do not.

The experience was fantastic. I don't know what rock I was living under that I never heard of Bacari before, but it's definitely one of my new favorite places. We had: 2 permanent vacations - cocktails Salatim Kale Salad Shawarma tacos Shakshouka The best cake (so true!!!!) We ordered too much but needed to try as much as possible. Need to come back to try more. Food, service, all was wonderful!!!!!!

BLOOMING WITH BEAUTY A friend organized a Sunday brunch for five of us at this pretty indoor/outdoor restaurant. We sat inside the main room, where the windows were wide open, creating a covered patio feel. While the server suggested ordering a variety of dishes to share, most of the gang follows specific plant-based, gluten free diets that aren't my thing. Feeling carnivorous since I rarely cook meat at home, I ordered the open faced Bacari Burger ($14.50) with grass-fed beef, fresh tomato, caramelized onion, Worcestershire aioli, telera roll and fried egg, which was accompanied by a small salad on the side. My burger was cooked perfectly, and everything was delicious. The group selected Brussels Sprouts made with caramelized, pomegranate molasses, creme fraiche, and red beet, which were surprisingly the same price as my burger ($14.50). Of course, I had a bite, and they were fantastic. Since I eat Avocado Toast every workday morning, I merely tasted theirs, which was made with house-baked superfood gluten free bread, breakfast radish, olive oil and grey salt. It was fine. I was tempted to order the Crab Cake Benedict made with breaded claw meat, grapefruit Hollandaise, and sous vide egg for $12.50, so I was thrilled when they chose this. It was a little salty, but I would give it another go. They also raved about the Little Gem Salad (chick pea crunch, bacon, tomato, parsnip chips, lemon-calabrese vinaigrette and parmesan $12.50) and the Shakshouka (rustic tomato sauce, bell pepper, sous vide egg, parsley and a baguette $12.50). I stuck to water with lemon, but over our languorous meal, they ordered multiple non-alcoholic beverages, which averaged about $7 each. When the bill arrived, they were a little shocked since the numerous drinks were more expensive than all of the food. Valet parking is $15, but it's easy to find street parking if you don't mind walking a few blocks. The gorgeous setting, interesting food and healthy options means I'll be Bac... to Bacari.

Rachel j has by far been my favorite employee from my visits first time being here on a busy day and she was on top of everything and continued having a positive attitude.

Cool spot but the tables are so close to each other. I think they should put quality over quantity when considering the capacity level. But it's really a cute restaurant. Bathroom is clean. Love the idea of ordering tapas because I enjoy variety when I'm ordering. They tell you to order about 2 to 3 per person. Parking is valet only unless you find a metered spot on Ventura Blvd. They allow dogs! Yay!

It has been over a year since my last dining experience here, and I'm happy to say the staff experience is still a 6-star! The food has also remained the same--high quality with great taste. The tapas experience makes dining here fun, allowing you to try various dishes, each more delicious than the last! My absolute favorites are the stuffed mushrooms with a five-cheese blend and toasted pecans, which add a great subtle crunch, paired with a fantastic basil walnut pesto. The texture is great, and the flavors are unforgettable--this is the best stuffed mushroom I have ever had. The beef cheek with goat cheese polenta is slightly spicy and packed with flavors from the pickled fennel and Aleppo chili oil. The beef cheeks practically melt in your mouth and satisfying. Don't skip the ricotta and beet gnocchi! The creamy and indulgent chèvre fondue, combined with chimichurri sauce, adds extra depth to the perfectly textured gnocchi. An unexpected surprise was the delicata squash served with farro. It was slightly sweet, creamy, and filling--a delightful addition to the menu. My least favorite was the scallop medallion with carrot-parsnip purée, leeks, crispy capers, beet chips, and white truffle oil. A stunning dish with great promise on the menu, but it fails to deliver in taste, as the truffle flavors were missing and the scallop was over cooked. As always, the ambiance is full of energy, with a younger crowd and an even younger staff in this classic Sherman Oaks landmark.
