    Restaurant was cold .. food came to table cold . Bread /cheese Board did not have anything unique about it … the sliced meats were typical grocery store meats and came with two slices of bread cut in 4 pieces not worth the price ,two types of cheese 1 very small slice per type … disappointing..: the chicken breast on top of the salad was pale and lacked flavour . Wouldn’t recommend this restaurant for the price .

    Visited for the first time on Mother’s Day. Noise level was pretty decent even though full. Service was extremely good and food was superb! I loved their house lemonade. Overall it was as great experience and I’ll be back.

    I very rarely use excellent as a rating. For the four of us we all agreed yesterday, for lunch, it was indeed excellent. Food was delicious. Our waitress was very informative and lovely, great service as well. Noise level a bit high. Would definitely be returning. Thank you for a great experience.

    Relaxed and comfortable setting. Food was great and so was the service. We were there catching up with friends. Took our time and was never rushed by the servers. Have been there before and will definitely go again.

    The restaurant is acoustically very bright and although it was only about three quarters full during our visit, we were having trouble conversing over the background chatter. Some acoustic treatment would be a great idea.

    Pasta special was delicious. Cocktails, wine and pizza perfect as always. Regrets that we did not order the Banana bread pudding once we saw another table get one. Able to book reso same day and place was packed! I want to come here every week!

    Spring pasta was extremely salty. Kids meal was buttered macaroni and extremely overpriced. Very small tables close together. Small restaurant, have to pay for parking and loud.

    My friend and I enjoyed a delicious, relaxed lunch at Bardo today. Service was impeccable, the food servings were generous and the taste was fresh. I had the tuna melt and arugula fennel salad. We found it quite expensive for lunch.
