    There was a delay in ordering to getting drinks, and my husband didn’t the toppings on his tuna that were supposed to happen- we waited for 15 minutes at least before being presented with anything.

    On a beautiful sunny day, when the temperature is 75 degrees Fahrenheit, this is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the Potomac River.

    Service was excellent. Food was delicious as always. Courtesy desert and candle is very welcome as well. My friends had not been to Barca before. All was great except having to sit in the cold outside. I had requested outside seating as long as the weather was warm. Else I had requested to be moved indoors. We were celebrating an 80 year old birthday. We found out at the restaurant that there was no indoor for lunch. Also, there was no hot tea to warm us up. So now we know to come for dinner instead as long as the weather is uncertain.
