Barcar absolutely delivered an amazing date night experience. The service was outstanding from start to finish—attentive, friendly, and fast. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making it a perfect spot for a night out.
The food and drinks were just as impressive. The green beans were surprisingly one of my favorites—perfectly seasoned and cooked just right. And the espresso martini? Hands-down one of the best I’ve had.
Great drinks, great food, and an overall fantastic experience. Highly recommend!

Came on a Sunday during brunch and national margarita day. Only one of other table so it was pretty dead. Ordered the “big gulp” for $10. Compared to my cup of water seemed like a joke. Maybe it was an off day? Off first impressions I don’t think I’d come back..

Late night stop at @barcar504 and I’m already planning my return!
Didn’t make it in time for the full dinner menu, but the BarCar Burger was more than enough; juicy grass fed beef, caramelized onions, American cheese, everything-bagel brioche bun, and waffle fries with roasted garlic aioli.
If you’ve been here before, what should I try next?

I’m normally a city girl at heart and I never really eat anywhere in Metairie. However, my boyfriend decided to take me here for dinner Sunday and when I tell yall I’m in LOVE with this place. The aesthetics, the vibes, and the service were all top notch.
You get to pick your own table/section to sit in and they have a second floor balcony option too.
In terms of the menu I love that it was small and simple. We got the spicy crispy tuna rice, tempura green beans, Barcar burger, half a dozen of oysters (three of the mon Louis & admiral), and the Timesaver.
The spicy crispy tuna rice was A M A Z I N G. It tasted comparable if not better than sushi restaurants. The yuzu sauce is very soft and light but packs a punch. The crisp of the rice was just the perfect amount of crunchy that pairs well with the wetness of the tuna.
The tempura green beans were great on their own but the sauce it came with was just delectable!
I loved the oysters so much that I was able to eat it on my own without any sauce. The fact that barcar lists where each of the oyster is sourced & their flavor profile made me truly appreciate this place. I luckily went on a Sunday when oysters were only two dollars.

A must-go, any time of day! The drinks, staff and food have all been excellent so far with fair pricing. I have come several different times and enjoyed everything I have eaten and drank! The tuna crispy rice was excellent and very filling. The tempura green beans are plenty to share. The happy hour and weekday deals like steak Wednesday and $5 martini Fridays will keep me coming back. My favorite part is the balcony where you can people watch, watch TV or train watch! The staff is also extremely friendly and were very accommodating. I am looking forward to trying their lunch menu, steak night and their soon-to-be late night menu. It is amazing to see the transformation from a previously disappointing place to a lively and delicious bar and restaurant.

Between the food, drinks and service this place is a must try. Food is absolutely delicious with the tuna being my favorite. I can’t recommend a drink because each one on the menu is incredible and I’ve tried almost all of them if not all. The service is great and everyone is incredibly attentive and friendly. Great date night spot or just somewhere to come have good food and drinks in general! Try it out you won’t be disappointed!

Absolute LOVED Barcar! This locally owned spot has a well curated menu and a wide variety of beverages both alcohol
and mocktail!
The Steak Tartare and the Spicy Tuna Crispy Rice are some of our faves and the Timesaver was an inventive and delicious drink.
I liked that the Staff had great recommendations and the Manager made us feel really welcome and checked to make sure everything was good.
I have not made Happy Hour yet but def on my radar because it goes til 6pm and also Bingo Night looks like a good time to break up the work week monotony.

Friendly, decorous, amazing service and heady music flowing at Barcar. Loved the Asian shrimp salad (reminded me of a really good Burmese tea leaf salad, would order again and again) and tempura fried green beans. I’d never been to this part of town but plan to return, my kind of place!
