    Excellent experience. Outstanding service made all the difference, with waiters attentive to all our needs and willing to make thoughtful suggestions for our dinner. Even though it is more expensive than a chain restaurant dinner, it is worth every cent. Food is fresh and high quality, with variety in pizzas (not your usual cheese pizza!), and refined dishes for those looking for pasta and/or seafood. I would pass on the appetizers (they are too expensive for what they are), but the entrees are to die for.

    Our waiter was knowledgable polite and attentive. He made some awesome suggestions that worked out well. We were there in time to take advantage of their happy hour. Excellent experience overall. The new decor is also lovely

    A nice experience. Food was good - not great, good. Portions seemed fine. But, for example, $19 for quinoa, some chick peas, black beans, handful of arugula and simple pesto/vinegrette??? This is a couple of dollars to make … $19? Calamari was not terribly crisp. Generally, things tasted ok. Not wow. But there seemed enough menu items to try that makes it worth maybe coming back. Service was terrific (well done Levi!). My salad was served without any dressing, pointed it out and was fixed right away with apology. All good!! Brought older parents in - Sunday PM - super loud and it killed the enjoyment for them a bit. Not a quiet place for a late lunch at all. Overall, seems worth a try but not a knock it out of the park place. Just - good.

    Everything was amazing ! There were 3 of us and we shared: bread and spread, roasted brussel sprouts, small duck confit pizza and mac and cheese. We were all satisfied and had a slice of pizza left over. The service was great, especially considering how busy the restaurant was. We also order coffee and cookies at the to-go counter after we had paid for our table. At that point I think the servers may have been a little overwhelmed because my latte sat half made at the machine for 5+ minutes as several servers were taking care of delivery pick ups and bar drinks and serving tables, before a third person finally came over to finish my drink.

    From start to finish… divine! When we arrived the table beside us was just leaving and RAVED about everything they ordered. Our server had great energy. My cocktail was well balanced and so satisfying. The shareables were mouthwatering. The pizza was everything I wanted it to be. The after dinner americanos and desserts were the perfect end to the perfect date night. Thank you Bardo!

    We took friends who had never been to Bardo and they loved it! We always get the hummus to start with pita - outstanding. Wines by the bottle very good value. Can’t go wrong with the pizzas - overall great resto👍
