Reviews
The food was decent, though nothing particularly special. Drinks and coffee were okay, but we felt they could offer more variety or different flavors. Overall, it was a good experience.
I can never get enough of the whipped feta and chicken baraki. The steak skewers and (if I remember correctly) grilled cheese bites with vodka sauce were 10/10.
Beyond the food, Baraki has a creative and extensive cocktail list. Each cocktail is unique, flavorful, and colorful.
It’s a great restaurant with a beautiful outdoor space in the back.
Baraki is a great spot to spend an afternoon with friends sharing plates and trying out different cocktails!
Food was good. We filled up on the appetizers so they give good portions. The music was lively and good. They need more servers.
We’ve tried ah lot since first coming here and everything better than the last. The buffalo chicken sliders are amazing, the gyro bao buns are to die for, the feta cheese fries (gasp) cuz I don’t like feta and they are excellent. The Focaccia Burnt grill cheese and the Wings, outstanding!!
Then you get to the drinks… Each made with love and precision, from my fave the Gold Fashioned to whatever my daughter and wife orders… Smash it, the Pretty Penny, they had one they used to serve in ah cat mug/glass; all of em excellent from taste to effectiveness.
Love it here.
After that hiccup, I decided to order a coffee. There was no drink menu other than cocktails, so I asked if they had one. The waiter said he could make any coffee since they had a machine. I asked for a Greek Frappe (which I’d seen on their Google listing), but he said they didn’t make that. When I showed him the photo directly from Google, he told me it looked like an iced latte—which it clearly wasn’t.
To make matters worse, there was loud construction happening upstairs, making it nearly impossible to hold a conversation over the drilling and cutting noises. The coffee I ended up getting was good, but not what was pictured online.
We also ordered the French Toast waffles, which looked amazing in Google photos—served with fruit and whipped cream. What we received was quite different: waffles topped with cold, unmelted sticks of butter and nothing else. When we asked if we could get a side of whipped cream or fruit, the waiter said they didn’t have any and that it “doesn’t come with that.”
Overall, this place needs to do a serious clean-up of their online promotions and photos to ensure they match what’s actually offered. Between the outdated deals, misleading images, and lack of consistency, it felt like false advertising just to get people in the door. Unfortunately, we won’t be returning.
