Bacari GDL is a Venetian-inspired small plates restaurant featuring Mediterranean-influenced dishes by Chef Lior Hillel. We are the 3rd restaurant of Kronfli Brothers, a family-owned, growing group of restaurants in the Los Angeles area. Alongside our delicious tapas, we offer a rotating curation of small-production wines and eclectic beers, unique craft cocktails & mocktails, and we are also known for our one-of-a-kind 90-minute open bar special.

Our team provides warm hospitality in our comfortable, intimate indoor lounge by the bar or in our spacious, breezy outdoor patio. You will feel like home when dining at Bacari GDL.

We welcome but do not require reservations — we love to accommodate walk-ins and large parties, even on busy nights. Bacari GDL is the go-to spot for our neighbors, and we look forward to hosting you soon!

This is the third time I've been to a Bacari and it never fails....waiters are just not attentive in the least. They start out great and have some nice one liners but they just do not refill your water or see if you need anything and keep you waiting. It's always tough to get good service at Bacari for some reason. Shame its a good concept

Took some family here on our way to the Burbank airport. Great food and service - thank you Lawrence and Christian!! It’s a little more of a “mall” vibe than the Silverlake location, but the quality and convenience can’t be beat. And the food was just as good. As a bonus, we got to the airport in 15 minutes after the meal. Thanks again!

Love Mediterranean food. I ordered the seabass and mussels they are both delicious! I went by myself, I got seated right away. Drinks was good, reasonably priced. Served are Attentive. I wish there was one closer to us. They will validate your parking ticket.

We took our team here for a company dinner and the service and food were all EXCELLENT. Our server was Jeff and he did a phenomenal job, highly recommend this place for dinner!!! We sat outside in the heated patio section, has a great ambience to it and fresh air as well. Definitely one of my new favorite restaurants, this was our second time here and we loved it.
