    Everything we ordered (Avocado, Calamari, Snapper, Salad, and desert (Pistachio Cake and Strawberry desert) was outstanding. The flavors were subtle and exquisite. The chef deserves to be a James Beard winner! The servers, especially Luke, were attentive, knowledgeable and made sure that everything was to perfection. Looking forward to a return visit in the near future!

    Service was wonderful. Our waitress brought us a glass of champagne and a candle in our dessert to celebrate my birthday. The food in between was delicious

    Food was excellent. Server was great and very accommodating for an allergy. Food took a little while to get to us, partly due to it busy night and for food accommodations

    This was our first visit to Bardea and we will definitely be back. The service was outstanding - from our waitress Maria to the servers that brought our meal to the table. Maria has a great energy and guided us through the menu. Our meal was delicious - the calamari appetizer was divine, the best we ever had. Our pasta dishes were just the right portion with wonderful mingling of flavors. Pop's pudding pie was the perfect dessert to finish. We had tickets for the Grand and we made it to our show with time to spare. Thank you, Bardea!
