My family and I (group of 7) had brunch at Baraki and it was outstanding. The standouts were the whipped feta, burnt grilled cheese, and the filet mignon skewers. Not only was the food incredible, but the service was impeccable. Our wait staff was beyond attentive, patient, and professional. Our waiter, Cesar, was very personable. The restaurant was very aesthetically pleasing as well. We will definitely be back. Grateful to have such a nice spot close to home.

This is an incredible restaurant - especially for date night! The food is great, the staff is incredible, and the atmosphere is impressive. While we were walking to the restaurant, we ran into this incredibly friendly lady who happened to be the owner's mother - after witnessing how friendly she was, we were even more excited to try this place out. Alfonso (our waiter/bartender) was incredibly attentive and helped us feel welcome from the moment we stepped in. He suggested drinks, dishes, and even sat down to share his story and motivations with us around the restaurant. We got the popcorn shrimp as an appetizer, it was delicious. For entrees, we got the chicken and waffles and chicken baraki - both were amazing. For dessert, we had the greek egg rolls which were amazing. As for drinks, if Alfonso is making them, you can't go wrong. Shout out to this incredible restaurant on a crowded street. They stand out, for good reason.

A Brunch Surprise with Great Vibes Stopped here for a quick brunch and was pleasantly surprised by the decor—it’s a beautifully designed space that instantly sets the mood. The waiter was welcoming and helped us choose dishes that best fit our palates, which made the experience even better. The playlist was on point, adding to the laid-back yet elevated vibe. As for the food, the pancakes tasted like home, and I loved that I could add chicken to the order. The Jasmine tea was a standout—the aroma alone was delightful and calming. We also tried the filet mignon skewers, which were flavorful and well-prepared. We didn’t try the drinks this time, but the patron next to us couldn’t stop raving about them—so that’s on the list for next time. If you're looking for a chill brunch spot with great food and ambiance, Baraki is definitely worth checking out!

Came in for a drink after work - this is hands-down the best cocktail I've ever had, and I'm sure the others are just as amazing! Will be back ASAP to try others

My friends and I had dinner at Baraki on Friday night and after reading the wonderful reviews, we were very excited to try this new spot out. The restaurant itself is small but beautiful. After we sat down, the host greeted us and provided us with menus. We were very disappointed to see the limited options of cocktails. However, we all still decided to try out their signature cocktails. We ordered the scuseme while i kiss the sky, not your typical sangria & the clear negroni. The drinks came out in very small glasses and did not taste great, definitely not worth the price. The only drink that was good was the sangria. For appetizers, we ordered the bar pizza, saganaki cigars and focaccia burrata. The appetizers were more of frozen dishes that were heated up. For entrees we ordered the pita tacos, gyro bao bun and gnocci vodka. The gnocci vodka was amazing, the best dish of the night. Stay away from the gyro bao bun, the bao bun was stiff and dry, the lamb was cold. The tacos were also cold. As much as we wanted to love this place, we were really disappointed. The service was great but that was the only highlight of this dinner.

For a Saturday evening reservations are recommended. I was running a little late but I still was able to get a seat. It wasn't long after we were seated that the restaurant got busy. We just ordered some small plates to share and that filled us up. I really liked the spinach and artichoke dip. The French onion soup was good as well. The drinks were good, not too strong. The restaurant had a good vibe with good music playing in the background. The staff was pleasant and checked in frequently refilling our waters. Looking forward to going again to try their other dishes.

Amazing Greek and American food. Their service was patient and superb. The jasmine tea was amazing and they provide a cute timer for you to see the flower open. The Greek churros were good for dessert and their gnocchi was good but I prefer pesto gnocchi than vodka gnocchi but their mango salad was delicious 😋 the spinach artichoke dip was ok,

I recently visited Baraki and had an outstanding experience. The food was excellent, especially the burnt grilled cheese. It tasted like it had bacon, but surprisingly, it didn't. The Mediterranean eggs benedict was delicious, and the shakshouka was really good. Loved the food! Omg loved the food so much. The beverages were exceptionally well-crafted. Unlike many brunch spots where drinks often taste like hastily mixed alcohol, these cocktails showcased thoughtful composition. We sampled Honey Honey and Don't Forget Your Veggies. Both drinks exhibited wonderfully balanced flavors that perfectly complemented our meal. Honey Honey offered a delicate sweetness reminiscent of honeyed water with a subtle alcoholic warmth, while Don't Forget Your Veggies presented a light, refreshing profile enhanced by Thai basil. It was evident that each drink was carefully designed to be a proper cocktail experience, not just an afterthought to the food menu. The service was top-notch. Everyone was friendly, especially Foti, the owner. He made us feel welcome and gave great recommendations. We're excited about their plans to open a jazz spot. The value was amazing. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of food and drinks we got. We went for brunch and felt it was excellent value for money. Thank you, Baraki, for a wonderful brunch experience. The burnt grilled cheese was exceptional, and the "holy water" shots were a delightful surprise. We're already looking forward to our next visit!

My family came from DC to visit and we had an amazing experience here! The place was clean and asthetically designed. Our food especially the beef sliders and grilled cheese were absolutely fantastic. The cocktails were exceptional and so well crafted. Highly recommend pink penny. Alphonso our server/bartender was so friendly and welcoming the whole time we were there. Will definitely be back!

I've been here a few times, and my most recent experience was fantastic! I ordered a few rounds of drinks and tried several menu items, including the popcorn shrimp, whipped feta, spinach and artichoke dip, and buffalo sliders. Everything was delicious. The owner was incredibly friendly and even gave us a sample of the grilled cheese, which was a nice touch. Overall, it was a fun and welcoming experience. Highly recommend!
