Bacari Glendale never disappoints! The service was excellent, and the upgraded outdoor seating makes the experience even better. Our server was incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious as always. I love the tapas-style plates—it’s perfect for trying a variety of dishes and sharing with the table. Definitely a 5-star experience!

We had a table of six and ate outside and it was very pleasant. It's a little tricky understanding the menu if it's your first time. They are considered small plates but some people don't eat a whole lot either. Look around at the other tables to get an idea, if it's your first time there.

Josiah was our waiter and was above & beyond outstanding. He made sure our orders were correct and that our meal was to satisfaction. He offered if it wasn't then he'd make sure it was fixed. He was extremely friendly bc of him I'd return if I was back in town. The menu is different than I'm used to. Its basic one item, no sides. This makes it a Lil more pricey than normal but the food was really delicious. I had the sea bass and Brussel sprouts. I don't even like Brussel sprouts and they were really fantastic. Atmosphere outside had a ambiance was fantastic. Heaters available. All the staff that I interacted with were very pleasant. This was my first time here and I live in North Carolina. I would highly recommend for a friends night out, eating solo or looking for a date night spot.

Bacari doesn’t disappoint! The variety on the menu allows us to sample things we didn’t get to try at other locations.

Delicious tapa’s and drinks! Everything I got was amazing!! Not pictured is the sea bass which had an incredible taste profile, I ate the whole thing. Service was wonderful as well!

Great tapas spot in a super busy area. I would highly recommend making reservations before you visit. We went before a show at the Alex theatre and everything we had was delish! We eat a lot and ordered the watermelon salad, beet salad, octopus, beef pita, sirloin steak .... we were still hungry so we then ordered the shawarma tacos and glazed pork belly. There were two of us and we polished everything off and had room for desert! We got the pistachio desert (don't remember the name) and it was really good. Would definitely come back if we come by this area again.

The best place to enjoy the ambiance and food. Go here with your loved one or by yourself, it will not disappoint you. Our server, Madison, was the sweetest and she took care of us very well. Very welcoming staff. Okay enough about the amazing staff, the food here is mind blowing as well. Like every dish that we ordered turned out to be just mouth watering. I never knew foodgasm until I felt it today. Definitely try the stuffed mushroom, apple and Brie pizza. The drinks were great too. A little overpriced but I guess it’s worth it!?

I was so impressed with the food here! I had never heard of it before I was walking by one day and decided to try it, turns out there are multiple locations but I’ve only ever tried the Glendale location at Americana. I ordered the Glazed Pork Belly, Fried Chicken Sliders and Oaxacan Pasta which were soooooo amazing! The service was good, just what you expect from a restaurant, nothing noteworthy to report on that front. The atmosphere was so lively, not an empty seat in the house, everyone was having a great time. My friend and I even got to know our neighboring customers, they were so friendly and it was such a great time to chat with them. Regarding the parking, from what i can tell it is part of Americana so you’d be using their parking structure. There’s plenty of parking but it’s recently become not-cheap. I couldn’t tell you for sure if they still have the first 90 minutes for free. There is also street parking options which cost a few dollars. If you don’t mind going out of your way to save a few dollars, you can park at the Glendale Galleria (large mall next to Americana) parking which is free and then walk over, though it’s not a short walk. Overall, can’t wait to go to this place again and have some of their great food!

Really enjoyed all the tapas style dishes. We were a large group reservation so had to choose menu items in advance but they were all quite tasty and quite filling for us. The grilled branzino fish, and the salad were standouts.

Absolutely favorite place!!! Love sharable tapas style dishes. One can't skip Bacari fries with egg and aioli sauce. My favorite there are scallops, lamb kabob, chicken sliders were new on the menu (wasn't crazy about sauce tasted weird) but crispy chicken was very good. Also fish is always a good choice there, beet salad is amazing.

Loved the experience here and it’s largely gonna be because of our server, Bailey. The food is great and the place is pretty though! The spicy bacarita was yummy. We enjoyed everything we ordered: sea bass, pork belly, apple Brie pizza, steak, and the chocolate cake w/ ice cream. It was an additionally great experience because Bailey was very knowledgable and anticipated things we didn’t consider so our ordering and our meal was a completely smooth ride. We left full and happy and forgot to take a picture together because we were just on a high. One star off on atmosphere that really isn’t Bacardi’s fault but while the outdoor seating was pretty and cozy, the street sounds got kinda intense.

The food at Bacari was truly delicious – every dish was flavorful and well-prepared. However, the pacing of the service could be improved. We were told that the dishes would be served one by one, but instead most of them came out at the same time. As a result, by the time we got to the later dishes, they had already gone cold. It would have been a much better experience if the courses had been spaced out as originally promised.

Some dishes hit it out of the park, some just good. The stuffed mushrooms were my favorite!! Service was good and the atmosphere was excellent. The hibiscus custard dessert was very unique. Drinks were also quite tasty. I'd return...

The food and atmosphere were great but the service left a lot to be desired. The smaller portions allow you to order many dishes and share which is great. The service was one of the worst I’ve ever experienced. Some of our parties food came out but then we waited over an hour before anything else came out. We’re never asked if we wanted more drinks/ cocktails. Eventually we left before the rest of our food came out because we had been there over two hours. All of this happened after we were seated 30 minutes after our reservation time.
