"The Barbary will make you fall in love with eating at the bar. All of the restaurant’s seats are at a counter surrounding an open kitchen and bar, and this place, from the same people behind The Palomar, gets everything right. From the upbeat atmosphere and incredible Middle Eastern-meets-North African food, to the service and shiny countertops. Get there close to opening if you haven’t booked and want to avoid a wait, and don’t bring more than a couple of friends—it gets loud. " - sinead cranna, jake missing, rianne shlebak, daisy meager
