    We love bardea- the food is inventive, delicious, and always changing. I did notice the portions were considerably smaller on the tri tip with Guava Bernaise- a particular favorite we get when we're there. I know things are tough all over, but this was the only disappointing thing in a spectacular meal. I recently heard they were up for a James Beard award and I could not be more excited for them- it's just always a lovely night out.

    Great meal as always. We highly recommend the chicken parm bao bun. It was delicious. You just can’t go wrong with anything on the menu and Emily is the best. Service was excellent and attentive. Thanks for another evening.

    Bardea never disappoints! Delicious food, perfectly paired wine, and excellent service keep us coming back time and again. We particularly enjoyed the avocado, calamari, and cauliflower on this visit although we’ve never tried anything that we didn’t like. Thank you for a memorable Valentine’s dinner. Can’t wait to try your sister restaurants!

    Food was hit and miss, most dishes were excellent but a couple were not good , undercooked or overly sweet. Staff removed both dishes from the bill.
