    Everything was good but please make your bread order bigger! The big part of the meal is sopping up the sauce with bread

    One of our favorite Italian restaurants in the city. Stylish settings, kind and attentive service along with quality food keeps us coming back for more. Their salads are top notch with ingredients that look they were picked right from the garden. Pastas are equally as good. If you’re feeling adventurous, take a look at the Doppio if available, a sweeter pasta entree.

    The servers and food were great! We thoroughly enjoyed the menu, it was definitely different from your typical italian joint and it really helped all the dishes stand out in comparison to most restaurants in the area! Owner was super helpful and nice about issues with the InKind app and we were super happy with our experience(:

    Food was not at all typical of Italian. Odd dishes such as bruschetta with some type of minced meat and anchovies. Very dark and could hardly see the menu descriptions. Service was okay but not super accommodating. Overall disappointing.

    Food was excellent. We ordered the Ascolane, the insalata, Malloreddus, and the bistecca. The ascolane wasn't super salty as olives can be, the fact that it's stuffed with osso buco and fried sounded amazing, but the flavors were right on. The Malloreddus was delicious and slightly al-dente. The bistecca was tender, flavorful with the mushroom and onion sauce...yum.

    As always, the service, food, drinks, and dessert were excellent. If you’re looking for an Italian restaurant with consistently high-quality food and service, this is the one to go to.

    The food was delicious. We ordered 3 pasta dishes and shared among our group, and each of the dishes was fabulous. The dessert was sensational as well.

    I took my husband to celebrate to Barberio and it was wonderful! From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed and well taken care of. The food was absolutely delicious, with fresh, authentic flavors that we both loved. Saul went above and beyond to make our night special, and their genuine care made all the difference. We left feeling happy and satisfied – can't wait to be back 🫶🏼
