At 4:30 we couldn’t get seated in their empty restaurant because they had reservations and the tables were being held. They offered us their “climate” controlled patio which was freezing because they had the windows open on a 47 degree day. Apparently, they don’t need the business. The hostess said if we didn’t want to sit in the patio area and freeze that we could have a table but would have to leave in an hour. No thanks.
First time here, Great restaurant, amazing food, very clean, fresh & not salty food, beautiful lighting and furniture very modern. The food was definitely delicious from appetizers to soup and salad to my delicious seafood pasta and the scallops are also amazing. Large portions. The waitress Jackie is A1, very friendly, knows everything on the menu, knows her drinks, super respectful, honest, polite and smiley. I will definitely be back here any day!! The owner/ manager made sure everything tasted good.
New local favorite! The atmosphere here relaxed and comfortable. The food, drinks and deserts are beyond your expectations with flavors that entice your taste buds to tell you to keep earing and order more! We came for brunch and had many $3 Mimosa and sampled many items off the brunch menu. The eggs in purgatory pizza was served on a skate board! Yes an actual skate board! All the other food ( chicken and waffles, prosciutto Benny, and holy cow Benny burger) were all better than expected!
Only could leave 5 stars but I would leave 10 this place is amazing! Every time I fly in from Florida it is mandatory to stop here atleast once! The quality is amazing and so many great options! Wish they would open a Florida location!
Love you, the food and the unique atmosphere. Upscale fun, impeccable service.
I highly recommend coming here! Brunch is amazing, as is every dinner we've enjoyed here. We've also enjoyed several tasting events here. My husband and I have NEVER been disappointed! Great service and amazing food, to say the least ?
Great service, excellent food.
Fantastic! Food was amazing. Meat balls are great, Tomahawk pork chop was absolutely the best. Excellent service from Jackie v. Will definitely return. Come hungry the portions are generous.
There is a new champion of dining and it is Testa Barra!1,2,3..Here it isMy wife and I had an 8:30 reservation on a busy Saturday. We arrived around 8:20 and the hostess let us know that our table was still being cleaned but we could sit at this quaint little 2 person table and order a cocktail while we waited. While we waited Jeff came to check on us( which we assumed was a manager), as he was checking on every table in the house but saw that we didn’t have drinks and took our drink order, delivered our drinks back to us and then he checked with the hostess stand to see if our table was ready, which it was and he walked us over and sat us.Jeff asked us if it was our first time at TB and we said yes, and without missing a beat, he covered the drink and food menu and gave us the history of the TB and J. Baldwins and told us the connection of the restaurants all in about 4 minutes. And that’s when we found out that Jeff is a co-owner. He let us know what his favorites were, the pasta and pizza dough are made onsite and fresh everyday; if Jeff ever tells you that something is “Grandma’s Recipe” just order it, its going to be good, I promise you!What we ordered and what you should try..Manga meatballsAranciniLobster DiavoloConnie’s Lamb ShankCanollliBomboloni - This is what sealed the deal for me, these are warm little beignets served with whip cream, lemon, and raspberry all on the same plate. This is without a doubt the “Chefs Kiss”.For those that want details Atmosphere is chill and cool but the staff is also really friendly. There was a house guitarist playing some cover songs at nice dinner volume, just added to the ambiance. Dress comfortable, no tie neede. It is an amazing place for dinner for family, friends, co workers and on Sundays they have brunch. Parking is plentifulThis is our NEW favorite restaurant. The food was fantastic and no matter what we ordered we were delighted! Our servers were also great and always efficient, happy and polite. We were amazed at not only the quality of food, but also the service, Jeff called me by first name at each interaction yes because he came and checked on us several times during our meal but he didn’t have to and we still couldn’t figure out how he could’ve remembered my name when the restaurant was packed. The service is unmatched. The staff truly cares about your experience. The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted melted in other mouths. Absolutely the best meal we had while. Highly recommend!Absolutely amazing place to eat, 10 of 10 for every single aspect of this meal, and this is coming from people who know and love great food! We can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to enjoy some fine dining. I cannot recommend this place enough! Such a warm and welcoming environment! Make a reservation and enjoy!Simply put…Testa Barra is ELITE!
Lovely place for calamari and great food. David, our server, was very attentive and helpful with food selections. During peak times it is loud, so if you are looking for a quiet dinner, this isn't it. They do have live music on certain nights that add to a fun atmosphere. The varscino was amazing and very flavorful. I highly recommend. And the calamari of course is a must have.
