4.3 / 5.0(3,712 reviews)

We came here for happy hour cocktails on the rooftop. When we arrived, the rooftop wasn’t that busy, so we had multiple tables to choose from. I loved the vibes and the view from the rooftop. We ordered “Mojito” and “Tommy Margarita” from the Happy Hour menu and enjoyed our cocktails; very refreshing. We also paired them with “Lamb Anticuchos” that 3 skewers of grilled lamb served with a delicious sauce. The staff are professional and helpful. We celebrated my girlfriend’s birthday at Baro on September 20th, and the entire experience was absolutely excellent! From the moment we walked in, the reception was warm and welcoming, setting the tone for a special night. The service throughout the evening was flawless, attentive without being intrusive, and every staff member went out of their way to make the celebration feel personal and memorable. The atmosphere was vibrant and energetic, perfect for a birthday night out. The music was spot on, creating the right balance between fun and sophistication, and it carried the energy of the evening without overpowering conversation. On top of it all, the food was absolutely delicious, every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. From start to finish, everything from reception to service to food, atmosphere, and music was exceptional. Baro truly made my girlfriend’s birthday one to remember, and we’ll definitely be back!❤️🎉 Beautiful restaurant and the food and service were both very good. Breakfast Parfait was very nice, as were the steak and eggs dishes and the guacamole was a big hit. Shakshuka was a bit of a disappointment, as was the coffee, which was strangely weak.

Sunday Brunch. Very nice atmosphere and view from the rooftop patio. The staff are very helpful but the service itself was a little slow. We only had our water glasses filled when we were about to leave. We also had to look for our server to try to pay. We weren't in a hurry, and it was a nice day, so it did not bother us too much, but it did leave an impression. The brunch selection was good and hearty. We didn't take advantage of the brunch bottomless drink selection but they seemed wonderful. We will be back ;)

Came here with a large group of girls as a celebration meal and everything was amazing! We had 2-3 servers helping us out and all were friendly, knowledgeable, and seemed to really enjoy working there. We ordered a margarita tower and a ton of dishes to share and everything was amazing. Would absolutely come back!
